I'm not one for believing all I read but thought I'd share this just incase it stops an incident happening. I just typed in 'Sophie the giraffe thinking of getting one for LO to chew on. When I did, it came up with a thread 'sophie giraffe dangerous.' I looked and someone posted a link to the...

Not sure if it's a coincidence but started some self settling training in the last few days, she normally goes 3 hours during the night, last night we had 6 in one go! Today she's been settling very well for naps, sleeping longer for naps too. Seems a lot happier in between too, i'll see what...

As title says really, I've got my period even though I'm exclusively breastfeeding. Anyone else get it this soon? Got mild tummy pains (weird to have that again!)

My LO has developed quite bad baby acne. She's not bothered by it so just have to wait til it clears up. Docs said to leave it alone and it's a reaction to the air that brings out the sebum??? - Weird Has anyone else's have/ had this, wondered how common it is? She is 5 1/2 weeks now

My LO is breastfeeding on demand and originally would go about 2/3 hours at night. Last week (she is 5 weeks old) she has been more fussy and awake in evenings, and at night extending it to 4 hours, but last night reverted back to every 2!!! I'm interested to know how ladies who are...

My little girl is 4 weeks old and has been getting trapped wind and making all sorts of grimaces, knees up to chest and starting 'desperate' crying more frequently. Last two nights she hasn't been settling back in Moses basket and would only fall asleep on my OH's chest, so we've had a long 2...

Someone wrote about a fab nursing bra they got online that was super comfy they were gonna buy more? Anyone remember who posted it or the online brand?

It is an absolute essay I'm afraid, but if you want a total blow by blow account then check it out. I write scripts for kids shows so guess I can't do short stories!! xxx

Warning..... this is an absolute blow by blow account that is LONG!!! It's not scary at all however! (Well I don't think it is) I wrote it for myself to look back on mainly. Well Monday I had a few niggles and a crampy feeling under my bump, noticed it more prominently when I stood up, I did...

Heard from JoJo 11.16pm (Sat night) As it stands right now, my waters are going and contractions every 10 mins maybe a bit less, labour ward not too concerned atm tho :s Def think we'll be going in early hours. 9.50am - Hey, I'm still at home! Just getting ready to go to antenatal day centre...

My OH asked if I was doing them and I said 'I kind of forget' which is annoying as I'm not working and sitting around most of the day! so I thought maybe if I made a post and if you ladies remember to do them maybe comment so it keeps being bumped up and I might actually remember? Xxx

In case anyone likes watching birth stories... there is a channel via Sky 254 'home and health'. At 6pm there are 2 half hour episodes called Birth stories. Watched them yesterday and they were pretty interesting, seems to cover lots of different people. I've found i'm getting really brave...

At our antenatal sessions, they told us about a free breast feeding workshop/class with sure start, so I'm booked on to go today. I've watched a few tv progs and NHS dvd about breastfeeding and was quite surprised to learn that it's not always as easy as all that - mastitis, sore/ bleeding...

I've got yet another growth scan this morning. The last time the consultant said it would be good to see how baby is lying as I'm now 36 weeks. At last MW appointment baby was breech and she mentioned that with my extra fluid they might want to do c section if baby doesn't move to head down...

Was just having a play around on computer with all the bump pics i've taken so far. Weird to see belly grow on one piece of paper! Thought i'd share on here!

Dear ladies I super love the nursery pics, but they are in different places so I was thinking maybe we should have one place for them all to go, much easier for nosing and getting ideas? Can you come back and update your post with more pictures if it's a work in progress? or is there a...

I have realised that it's getting harder for me to go to the toilet! Has anyone got any tips?

Seen a few nursery pictures threads! I just love seeing people's nurserys. So feel free to photograph and post away. Xxx

Well I'm here in my own room at the hospital being very well looked after! I got tightening pains in the night and they didn't go away for over an hour so called and went in to be monitored. They were really quiet so think I got lucky! They monitored me for an hour or more but of course the...
