    is it okay to take baby out now?

    @idiotonabike I brought my 3 day old to the local pub to get some food. Both my partner and I were exhausted as we had just got out of hospital. Also I will say a sling carrier was a game changer for breastfeeding on the go. My baby was feeding in the picture...

    Hey low suppliers, when did you stop breastfeeding?

    @oceanbreeze4evr I had a low supply on my son 20 years ago. No Internet or access to anyone who could advise me on breastfeeding. Any time tried pumping I got nothing honestly I didn't know what I was doing. My supply dried up and he refused to nurse at 5 months just after I returned to work...

    Taking a Poll

    @g19shooter Brought my 4 month old combination fed baby to see her grandparents which involved a bus ride for us. My daughter gets two bottles of formula a day, one at 12pm and one at 8pm. We arrived just at 12am. Went to make her bottle only to realise we had no formula. I remembered putting it...

    Breastfeeding Destroying Me Emotionally

    @pjnovak It's crazy how different it is. Having access to more information has made this journey so much easier. We had a lot of hiccups and I nearly quit several times. My daughter struggled with reflux with the formula which was my main driving force to continue. Finding your own peace is...

    Breastfeeding Destroying Me Emotionally

    @pjnovak My story is a little different than yours but I will tell you it in case you end up going with formula. So my oldest baby was born 22 years ago back when most people here didn't have access to the Internet. None one in my family ever breastfed a baby so my only sorce of information...

    When your newborn is 40

    @meeee Yes you are reading this correctly. My grandmother was the same. My aunt is nine months older than me. We grew up together. My daughter and I were both pregnant at the same time but gave birth in different years. My granddaughter was born in July and my daughter the following January. My...

    When your newborn is 40

    @sunny12051988 As a mother to a 20 and 22 year old I fully agree with your post. And being a grandmother to a 10 month old is amazing. Fair play to you for trying to staying up to date with things. Like me I'm sure you see a huge difference in raising children while some things haven't changed...

    Taking a Poll

    @trynabgood I did this but it was her toe. Didn't cut a single nail for weeks after that. She also has a birthmark on the tip of one of her fingers and goes under the nail. It's the type with blood vessels in it so scared stiff cutting that one.

    7 Weeks PP and ready for the 2nd

    @pdpayne2023 I'd love to have another baby but it would be very irresponsible of me to do that. I am almost 11 weeks PP. My baby is going to be like an only child even though she has two older siblings but there's a 20 and 22 year age gap. I'm 45 years old so having another baby is out of the...

    Baby won’t sleep in his cot

    @trendingtimmy It will get better. If you want him to sleep in the cot. I would suggest to keep putting him in until he gets upset and then pick him up. Rinse and repeat. I had to rock my oldest for an hour every night before I could put her down. Due to circumstances at the time I couldn't work...

    Baby won’t sleep in his cot

    @trendingtimmy My daughter has refused to sleep in her cot from 3 days old. If I didn't co-sleep I would never get any sleep. She has only started using her pram in the last few days while awake.
