NBB question from Katie:
Hi, wondering if anyone has any advice for the following situation with my toddler demanding to be carried:
Often when in public - shopping or the park - my 2 yr 2 month year old will demand to be carried. Being 7 months pregnant this is really difficult. Its not that he is tired or scared, it just seems more a battle of wills/stubbornness thing. I try distraction, making walking fun, giving incentives, choices, extended stand offs but he will stand in the one spot or lay down forever, nothing is working! Help please! He also started doing this at home too so not just in public! Anyone experience this while expecting? ... See moreSee less
NBB Question from Brianna:
Hi all, I'm a 3rd time mum to a 2 week old and have my hands full with 3 boys. I used a manual breast pump for my first 2 and this time around, I don't have the time that I need to express that I did with my first 2. Would a double electric pump help speed up the process or is a single electric suffice? ... See moreSee less
NBB question from Hannah:
My son will be 20months (weaned when he was 10 months) when we welcome our next bundle and I have learnt it’s good to have a ‘special’ toy for him for when I am breast feeding to avoid jealousy. He is incredibly busy and fickle with toys – he never has a favourite day in day out, so I’ve decided my best bet to keep him happy and to stay in the one spot with me is to give him my old iPad. I’m going to reset it so it won’t be used for anything but for him. Are there any recommendations for making an iPad as toddler-proof as possible, and any games that are engaging for that age? ...

NBB question from Maria:
My one year old has recently started to get pimples on his face. Sometimes they look quite red and sore. Sometimes they appear to be like whiteheads.
Are they best left alone completely or can anyone suggest a cream or something else that might help? Thanks! ... See moreSee less

NBB question from Kylie:
Ladies I need some advice. This is my first bubba and I'm currently 33+3 weeks and I am in so much pain. I have been struggling with symphysis pubis dysfunction since about 28 weeks but now its sciatica as well. Everyday is a struggle to move, even to roll in bed i am moaning in agony. I have been booked in for some physiotherapy on Tuesday but its taking such a mental toll I find myself not wanting to get out of bed on the daily. On top of that I am struggling so much with keeping food down of a night time. I suffer GERD but have done all the right things to save myself from brining my.dinner back up. I can eat dinner and wait 3-5 hours, take quick eze, mylanta, rennie, before I go to bed and can still be up being sick. Last night was the worst I've ever encountered and my poor husband had to deal with the after math as I was so weak and un well. This is also making me not want to eat and quite frankly I just want the baby out. This has been a dream come true and I've wanted this for so so many years but its becoming almost too hard for me to handle. My mental health is down tge drain and I already suffer from anxiety and depression and on medication for it. Please give me some advice, ideas, reassuarance, anything to get me through ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ x ...

NBB Question from April:
Wondering how others have dealt with teething ? My poor Bub has been teething and really unwell since late Friday night. She is inconsolable most of the day and only getting about 4 hours sleep all night. Refusing to eat and drink to the point she didn’t even have 500ml yesterday. Sounds congested at night. I’ve taken her to the drs, but because she presents perfectly to them were sent off without any guidance. Any tips to get through this stage? ... See moreSee less

NBB Question from Beccarah:
Hi, I’m wondering what others experiences are with VBACs. Eg induction (as they won’t let me go over 39 weeks due to GDM), first sign of labour, successful or not successful VBAC stories, and anything wise you think I should know
I am currently 35+2 with my second. My first was a ‘booked emergency’ c section in March 2019 due to growth restriction and pre-eclampsia (I had enough time for 2 doses of steroids and had him first thing the next morning). I am really trying to avoid a c section this time, mostly due to the recovery with a toddler and the fact that I don’t have as much family support this time around. I understand all the risks of a VBAC.
Thankyou! ... See moreSee less
