It’s scary at first when you think your baby’s not well. You’re not quite sure what to look out for. #health, #babyhealth, #fevers, #illness, #infantcare, #temperature https://t.co/nOaYzaX5TK

For the first year of their life, your baby won’t know when they’re tired. They won’t know when they should be going to sleep. So they tend to stay up, learning, playing and absorbingly. And get overtired. #babysleep, #babysleeptips, #newmom, #newbornsleep https://t.co/pF6ZkEg7KU

Your baby crying is one of the hardest things for you to hear as a parent. That’s because we’re evolutionarily designed to respond to a baby’s cry. Especially our own. And babies are designed to cry in a way that gets our attention. #crying, #colicky https://t.co/2KvWAq4ZCv

If your baby’s hard to burp or suffers with wind, colic or griping, I can’t recommend this enough. I’ve used it with both my boys and it works serious wonders. #breastfeeding, #crying, #wind, #baby, #care, #colicky, #crying, #griping, #health, #infant https://t.co/0jZ2fVSVha

From about day 3 with number one, I’ve had my boys in sleeping bags for every nighttime sleep and some daytime naps. #kit, #sleep, #babyclothes, #babysleepbag, #babysleeptips, #sleepsack https://t.co/yycQhYjkr4

The Lullaby Trust and the NHS both recommend that you keep your baby sleeping in the same room as you for 6 months. Because babies who do so are less likely to die from SIDS. #sleep, #babybeds, #co-sleeping, #cots, #newborncare, #whatshouldbabysleepin https://t.co/UWeFpe3EVY

If you can’t work out why your baby’s crying, they could be in pain from a hair tie. It’s always worth checking if you can’t work out why your baby’s still crying. #health, #babyhealth, #cryingbaby, #newmom https://t.co/zqavnInnUm
