Get a second hand pram off ebay - you can get decent prams for 1/10th of the cost new. I've got one with small bike wheels, it's more comfy for the bub, it's a jogger (beema), but it doesn't fold ...

I believe that some people will think this is rude and others won't. The fact that you ask the question means you yourself have doubts about it. But I totally understand that you'd rather not g...

I had my son at Redlands. Apart from not being able to get into the hospital when I was about to give birth it is really good. You get that personal country feel with city expertise. My friends ...

It's the hormones. You could be having a boy, which might make you more agressive. Well that's what happened to me. Won't calm down until you give birth and then after the birth you can get happ...

The most obvious sign is white tooth like formations in the gums. Like a small pale bump. Normal symptoms of teething are fretfulness and dribbling. There is no correct time for your baby to cut...

When you are on the go or too busy to cook, it's a good idea to grab an apple, orange or banana or something like that. You can also have a nut bar if you're not allergic. Don't worry too much ab...

They put the same stuff into weight loss shakes as they do into weight gain shakes. The (doctor approved) shakes give balanced nutrients in one shake. You need to determine if you can live on a...

Some reasons for going to a Hospital over GP are: - GP's charge more. - The perception is that a hospital with a peadiatric ward sees alot of children and the people there may know what to do in an...

I'm sure you are a great mum. My advice is to stop and relax a bit. I know I don't know all your details, but I feel you are doing way too much. Get back to basics. Get yourself and your child ...

My son and step daughter both did the same thing when they were 5 and 6. They started accepting that they don't always have to win when they were about 7. Just keep at it. I didn't let them ch...

I love Halloween. I love dressing up, love giving out lollies and I love the parade in Wynnum/Manly. Kids love Halloween too.

I've three children and have never used a necklace or any creams, lotions or potions. So the necklace could be hocus and some bubs just get through teething. However, I'd rather you bought a ne...

One of my bubs wouldn't feed so I used the nipple shield until she did. But she was bottle feed alot and I used a pump alot with her. So much so that at 3 months old she could hold a bottle and p...

You should try sleep school. If not possible research some ways to get the bub to sleep and try to follow one that suits you. Perhaps learn about sleep associations and how to get the baby to sle...

The reason for the comment was that there are sadly men I know who work overseas who are cheating on their partner and they are more likely to be paranoid about their children not liking them. Pr...

One of my babies had blocked tear ducts and there is some massage that you can do to clear them. I did this massage for a week and they cleared.

Your attitudes sound like mine was. I had to see a "specialist" because I wasn't connecting with my baby enough and lacked emotion. My first two children have been taken overseas against my will ...

I didn't go the freebirthing option, but I do feel all pregnant women should know how to freebirth. Not many recommend it, so it's hard to find someone to explain it, but what if that happens. Th...

Hi, I was also 10 days overdue. I'll share my story as it might help someone avoid a c-section, if they do not want one that is. What I did was: refuse to be induced at 10 days. You have the ri...

Don't take your child's actions personally. It is likely to stifle your relationship in the long term. Most children go through such a phase even if the parent stays home 24/7. Just keep loving ...
