:hug: :hug: :hug: You have my sympathy, Georgia also had colic. We tried Infacol and it did absolutely nothing for her. Baby massage worked a little bit. As did making sure we burped her lots during her feeds and keeping her upright after a feed for a good 20 mins or so. Other than that it...

When I was TTC, I had a luteal phase on the shorter side of normal. 11/12 days. I got pregnant OK. 6/7 months of trying with first and pregnant 3rd month of trying with the second. I too convinced myself that I had a short luteal phase, the internet can be a dangerous thing sometimes. Try not...

Not heard that either. Bought one for my son when he was a baby and he LOVED it :D Agree, you should only put them in for short periods at a time. This time I've bought the Fisher Price Jumperoo for my daughter, it's fab. Same concept as a door bouncer but even better. She absolutely loves it.

I started weaning Georgia 2 weeks ago because for the last 3/4 weeks she's been waking earlier and earlier after sleeping through for 11/12 hours. She now gets up anytime from 4am onwards. Fortunately it's been 5/5.30 for most of the week but the other days it's been 4am. Very hard to get used...

My son wasn't potty trained when my daughter was born last September. He wasn't ready for potty training but as others said, the general advice is not to push it when there is a new sibling about to arrive due to the upset it may cause etc.....My HV told me not to entertain the idea until at...

Before having my 2nd child I was convinced that if you suffered bad morning sickness you were having a girl. I based this on the experiences of friends/family who had girls, they all seemed to suffer with bad MS, actually throwing up not just nausea. I had nausea with my first pregnancy and a...

1st - born 5 weeks early 2nd - went into labour on due date, born day after

OMG, can't believe you are back TTC already. I'm sure it will happen quickly for you, it's often the way when you start TTC straight after having a baby. Good luck!

Congratulations Jane & DH. Welcome to the world George. It's been a long road getting your precious bundle, enjoy!!! xx

Ahhhh, congratulations!! What a story. So pleased that you got your healthy little boy.

I can't believe you've reached your due date, how fast as time gone. This time last year I was 6 weeks preggers and now I have my bundle, can't believe it. Hope everything works out well and that your LO holds on for Daddy to be back in time.

We've just about cracked it with potty training. I bought potties when my son was 18 months old which was very early but I wanted to get him used to seeing them around and learn what they were for. He sat on it the very first time we got them and over the months we'd ask him if wanted to sit on...

:hug: :hug: :hug: I went back to work full time after having my son, I did a staggered return to ease myself back in using annual leave. So only did 2 days a week for the first month then went up to 4 days a week. When my hols ran out I did condensed hours to have every other monday off. I...

Try not to listen to what others say, you have to do what is right for you and your family. 9 months is not too young at all to go to nursery. As you'll see the nursery room will be full of babies the same or similar age! My son went to nursery at 9 months as well, 2 days a week and he's...

We had four cats when our first child was born, we had to have our eldest put to sleep just 2 weeks after our daughter was born in Sept. Very upsetting to say the least. But we had the same worries as you. We made sure that we let the cats into the nursery before baby was born. Everytime a new...
