Bassinet reccomendations?
What bassinet did you use with your LO - I've heard good things about the 4moms bassinet but it is on the pricier side and not sure if there are better options out there. I don't think I am going to go the snoo route. Any thoughts?

Melatonin
Our 3 year old stopped taking naps around the age of 2 and fights going to sleep at night. She has always been on the low end of the sleep spectrum, but when she does sleep longer it makes her feel better. It seems we’ve tried everything, except supplements. We are worried she would become dependent on them or her body…

Pulling Up To Stand! Tips? Shoe Reco?
My soon-to-be 11-month-old baby is finally pulling up to stand! He already loves to walk around with support. If he could talk, he'd tell me sitting is for little babies, not him! He's now finding things to pull himself up onto his knees (like his activity cube, or mum/dad), and trying but struggling to get onto his feet.…

Can I give probiotics to a breastfed baby?
Hello! I have a 3 months old baby and he struggles so much to defecate, he starts crying and moving a lot, desperate because he can't defecate sometimes.

9 month baby needs holding to sleeping
My girl is now 9 months old but needs me to hold her to sleep and we delicately put her down. For her night sleep, once we put her down she can sleep through the night but might wake up once for a little cuddle and put back down. During the day we can't even put her down for naps. She wakes up the moment we try to put her…

2 Nanits?
I have a second baby on the way, due in September. I have a Nanit for my first son, should I invest in a second one or get a simpler monitor and swap them once baby comes? Thoughts?

Temperature readings
Hi, Measuring the temperature in a babies room is very important to ensure that the baby is dressed appropriately according to the temperature. On the Nanit there is no decimal place. I have used an external thermometer and the room was 20.9c but the Nanit shows 20c. Without the decimal place a 1c difference is quite…

7M/o teething and sleep regression
I am wondering if his night wakings are due to teething so I don’t let him cry it out. He was sleep trained a few months ago and things were good, however IM afraid to sleep Train him again at this point just in case it’s teething pain.

6 month sleep regression?
Our almost 6 month old was a great sleeper. He was sleeping through the night and putting himself to sleep. All of a sudden he is waking up one or two times a night, and inconsolable until he finally puts himself back to sleep. I’m thinking teething may be an issue? Any one else going through this??

18 month regression and separation anxiety
My baby has always been a good sleeper. With sleep training, she gets about 12 hours a night and 2 hours for her nap. About four weeks ago, she had a cold, was teething (molars and others) and decided that she didn’t want to nap in her crib alone and can only be held, or nap in the car. It’s been four straight weeks of…
