NBB Question from anon:
Hi, I've been considering the Little Ones sleep program, but I'd like to hear from others - isn't it essentially sleep training? With schedules and letting them cry for a few mins? I'm wondering if anyone's tried a non sleep training approach, and can recommend a book or program? Thanks!
NBB Question from Maria:
Just wanting to find out if anyone has experience joint pain post-partum like I do and if you have any solutions...
About 4 months after my first baby was born I started to get extremely sore joints, particularly in the evening. The pain would joint hip, for example one night my right elbow would be so sore then the next night my finger joints would be sore.
I saw specialists who decided it was arthritis. I fell pregnant again soon after and the joint pain went away instantly so I didn't pursue treatment.
Now my second baby is 4 months it's happening again ? the pain in the joint can be quite debilitating. If I go back to the doctors I know I'll be back down the arthritis path and I'm not convinced it's that.
Has anyone experienced anything similar and if so, what can I do to help myself?
Thanks!
It’s called a chemical pregnancy because the miscarriage occurs in the first five weeks of pregnancy, and only a biochemical test would be sensitive enough to detect the pregnancy. Although a pregnancy test might show that a woman is pregnant, an ultrasound would not have led to a pregnancy confirmation at this early stage.
This doesn’t make the pregnancy loss any less valid, and any less devastating for some.

NBB Question from Lauren:
Our 4 week old seems to have her day and night totally confused. She is nearly impossible to keep awake during the day for more than 10-20 minutes. She just feeds and sleep. At night time she is awake for up to an hour and a half. I want to start a sleep and feed schedule which suggests she is awake for up to an hour and a half between day naps but she just won’t stay awake . We have tried keeping her in light and noisy areas during the day, playing with her, stripping her off nothing keeps her awake. Even our noisy 3 year old doesn’t do the trick. Any ideas would be amazing.

DIY baby music shakers. There's no need to buy expensive toys. Instead, just fill some empty plastic bottles with things you've got around the house, such as rice, pasta, buttons, dried lentils...anything small that makes a good sound.
*Always supervise babies when playing

NBB Question from anon:
I have had 3 healthy pregnancies and with my 4th I got a dvt in my leg at 15weeks and was on clexane injections the whole time then heparin before giving birth
Everything went smoothly with the labour and I went back to clexane for 6 weeks after birth and have been fine for the last 18 months
I’m under no circumstances asking for medical advice I am just seeing if anyone else has had any experience
We would like to try for another baby has anyone else after dvt experienced a healthy pregnancy and what options were you given
I should also note that it was found not to be inherited or disease related it was pregnancy related.
Nailed it ?.

NBB Question from anon:
Hi, My baby is 3 weeks old now, she's on mix feed, poops alot, after every feed and cries most of the time, very hard to settle her down, also very hard to put her to sleep. We changed formula from s26 original to S26 gold but still no improvement, her formula intake is reduced as well, not drinking much formula from bottle feed. Any suggestions to improve the situation or any formula suggestions?

Hi, what are some good shop-bought savoury purées that are organic, and don't have added fruit to sweeten them? Thanks!
NBB question from Ava:
Hi mums, I’d like to start mix feeding my 3 month old daughter with a bottle a day initially. I’m worried I’ll reduce my milk supply. What have others done to help this?
NBB question from Biz:
I have a 13 week old who hates being swaddled, but sleeps better with it. He is swaddled hands down as I’ve tried in a love me swaddle ( hands up and he flipped out trying to put his hands in his mouth crazy like. ?)Just wondering any tips on trying to unwrap him? Should I go cold turkey on him, or any other hacks. It was easy with my others but this one hasn’t fallen for any tricks.
Thank you.
