  • is my 5 month old showing signs of sress?

    He's noy weaned yet but we sit him in hisbhigh chair when we eat at the table and he has toys, when he use to drop a toy of the tray I'd say "ahhh naughty naughty doda" and he'd smile, now a few weeks later he'll swipe a toy of the tray when it hits the floor he sticks his hands on his head and look worried then smile when I say "naughty naught dodah" is this a normal reaction? He's never been shouted at and they way he looks when he places his hands on his head is 'I'm in trouble' look.

  • signing over parental right for a 25yr old.?

    Basically I'm 25 when I was 11 my mum divorced my biological dad and her new boyfriend took the responsibility for myself.

    My biological dad came out of prison two months ago, he recently contacted me via facebook, I told him to leave me alone and blocked him (personal choice) he then kept creating accounts to message mw to tell me he is still my dad and he has a right to be involved in mine and my childrens life (I'd murder him if he went near my children).

    Dose he still have parental rights even with ny age? If so can my step dad sign for parental rights?

    Thank you.

  • having breast milk let down?

    Last week LO just didn't want to eat because of his injections. So I ended up ezpressing it all just to get it out. Saturday he started perking up and back to his usual ways. But now he's still hungry after the breast has emptied so I've had to top him up with ozs of formula now and then. Roughly 4ozs of it in 24hrs. I keep latching him to bring my supply back him but he cries as theres nothing there for him.

    How can I get my supply back without having to latch him to unsettle him?

    Thanks.

  • 3 month old wont eat after injections?

    My LO had his injections Monday and done nothing but scream since (no fever) but also when I'm feeding he'll pull of the breast and tries to do a sit up and then cry because he's not latched.

    Yesterday he only had three good wet nappies no solids then since 6am now 3pm had 2 and still no solid.

    I tried to express and give him a bottle but he won't even take that. I'm stuck on ideas how to feed him I don't want him to dehydrate.

    any advice would be fantastic.

  • rented house. need advice (without slander)?

    I'm having alot of issues at the moment with a house I rent (not cheap, usual going rate for the area)

    I've been here 9 months and cannot afford to moveany time soon.

    I have no gas safety or electrical (according to my local council I am supposed to have one) conservatory' the roof is mouldy inside and causes auxh a horrible of smell in the house, there are no windows in there only doors so I have to go out every morning to open the doors I'm unable to leave them open all night. The poor building of it is causing the house to sweat.

    The roof leaks and when I was 36wks pregnant I went out to open the doors and slipped on the leak. Ended up in hospital.

    There was a nail welded into the floor downstairs loo that was reported, I have a 9yr old who in a sleepy state ripped her foot open on it and had to have stitches. Ended up in hospital.

    The porch door fell of the hidges and landed on my daughters head causing a little crack again ended up in hospital.

    The sweating of tbe house has gotten into my pc and ruined a £900 buddha bag.

    The letting agent has blocked my calls and ignored my repairs after her website states that she has a duty of care towards her tenants.

    My daughter got locked in her bedroom for two hours till my dad got down to get her out due to door not fitting the frame.

    I don't know what to do the house has cost nore in hospital trips with petrol and new furniture as the wetness has caused damge to.

    Do I have rights to with hold rent until jobs arw done?

  • weaning at 4 months or 6 months?

    I asked a question about advice on weaning anf some answers said you don't wean until 6 months.

    The health visitor told me 4 months was the weaning time is this right? He's fully bf when I was looking at baby rice it also says 4 months.

    What's the actual age for weaning because everyone on the question said 6 months. Very confused. I'll happily just bf him till 6 months but I need to know the right time to wean by?

    Thank you.

  • fats dropped in breastmilk, baby constantly feeding.?

    When LO was around 7wks I'd exoress for g'parents to take him out I'd get out around 7oz and atleast 1oz of that would be fat (when it separates in the fridge) now I'm expressing around 9oz and only around 20mls of it is fat baby is now 3mths old.

    Nothing has changed in my diet I do slimming world so my diet is pretty healthy and have been on that diet all throughout pregnancy and first feeds.

    Is it normal for the fat to drop so much?

    Thank you.
