Not sure if this is the best section to post this in but..... Since Ethan stopped bf at night I have started feeling nauseous in the mornings on and off and sometimes at other times of day too. I was putting it down to hormone changes coz I then had a small period and felt better (I have been...

Well, despite my little man having a stinking cold and actually being quite poorly the last few days he has finally started crawling forwards! :-) We have had weeks of going backwards and rolling everywhere but now he is doing forwards 'army' style! Lol! So proud of my bubba :-)

.....next step is to get him to say just 'dada' to daddy! lol He started doing it a couple of days ago and thought it was a one off but he's carried on and its getting louder! lol He's kinda stalled on the crawling front (will still only go backwards) so Im pleased he's making progress in...

Well, we went to our first baby rhyme time session today at the library and it was lovely :-) Its only half an hour and its free but Ethan loved it! :-) There were about 15 babies/toddlers and Ethan was one of the younger ones but it didnt seem to matter. We did all sorts of nursery rhymes...

When do u stop burping LO after feeding? I still do after every feed but I didnt know if there is an age when u dont need to do it anymore? Ethan is 7.5months now and sometimes he will just bring wind up of his own accord with no assistance at all. Even when I burp him sometimes it doesnt...

Might sound obvious but I'm not sure on when or how to do this! Ethan has a bf after breakfast, naps, has playtime then lunch and a bottle, plays, naps again, then coz he has a third sleep around 4.30 I have been doing a bottle at 3.30 and then dinner around 6 and he has a bottle at bedtime...

......but Ethan slept all the way thru the night last night :-) :-) :-):dance: He went to sleep at 7 pm and didn't wake up until 6am, then he just chatted to himself in the cot for a bit and I didn't go into him til gone 6.30!!! Can't quite believe it!! Lol! :dance:

After recent teething woes (Ethans first 2 came thru) and having 2-3 night wakings last night Ethan did his best night ever!! He went to sleep around 7pm, didnt wake til 5am, fed, then went back to sleep by himself and didnt get up til 7.30am!! It was amazing :dance: Seriously hoping he can...

Well, now that Ethan's first two teeth have cut thru we thought we better start with the brushing- which I thought was gonna be a nightmare (a friend had pre warned me!) but.......he was as good as gold!! :) OH bought a toothbrush that has a special handle so LO can hold it as well as mummy...

Ok, so its just taken me 70 minutes to get Ethan down for his lunchtime nap and I feel so frustrated coz it's like we've regressed back to when he was about 12 weeks old again! Over the last week he is cut his first 2 teeth and he has been generally more irritable and difficult to settle but not...

Ok- so Ethan has always been a wriggly baby, from the moment I felt that first kick when i was pg he has never been still for v long! He has calmed down a bit in his sleep as he's got older but now he seems to think that naptime or bedtime is the perfect time to start doing circuits round the...

Can anyone tell me when this is likely to stop? I didn't notice it at all until about 4-6 weeks ago when I started reducing the amount of bf I did. Now its just getting on my nerves! Xx

Now that Ethan is getting more mobile OH and i r trying to sort out all the safety gear for our house- stair gates, corner protectors etc but when OH was looking up about socket covers there is info saying that they r more hazardous than the actual socket! Something to do with loose fitting and...

Is it normal for LO to still need feeding in the night after 6 months??? Ethan usually feeds once in the nigjt between 2-4am and i thoughr this was normal til I had a look in thatnhs birth to five book we were given when he was born. It says that after 6 months night feeda should b no longer...

Ethan started on solids just over 3 weeks ago now and its been going well. We introduced a 'meal' a week starting with breakfast, then lunch and since the weekend dinner. Breakfast and lunch were going well but I am struggling to fit in dinner! Ethan is combi fed having bf at night and first...

Hello ladies! Ethan has started 'crawling' backwards! He doesn't do a proper crawl (as in arm, opposite leg, arm, opposite leg iykwim) but he gets on all fours and pushes with his arms which shuffles him backwards! Is this normal and just a stage in learning to crawl properly?! It's v cute but...

Well Ethan turned 6 months on wednesday and we have held out on giving him food but tomorrow is the big day!! Wanted to do it at a weekend so OH doesn't miss out on this milestone moment! We r gonna do blw with a little bit of puree/mashing! So breakfast menu tomortow is toast and butter and...

Hello ladies! Just wanted to share something............. I was told about this book called 'The Wonder Weeks' by a mummy friend recently and decided to take a look at it on Amazon. It looked interesting and not too expensive (£13.50 I think I paid) so I bought it! It basically gives you the low...

OK, so Ethan is nearly 14 weeks now and I still don't feel like we have a set routine to follow......is this 'normal'? I am bf and therefore feed on demand. He goes about 3 hours between feeds and longer at night (3-5 hours). At the moment he is struggling with naps in the day (hv thought this...

OK, so LO is now 12 weeks old. I am still fully bf and he is growing well :-) Our stumbling block is sleep......apart from the odd occassion he just cannot self settle :-( We have tried lots of different things including: -baths -reading to him -lullaby cd -white noise cd -nature noise cd -swing...
