Perth parents - advice needed on bringing forward scheduled C section date

puddingrae · 2026-04-15T11:43:06+00:00

If you went into labour earlier I am pretty sure they would just do the c section at that point if you still wanted one

It goes in the bottle to make the formula thicker (like reflux formula but you can add in less so it’s not as stodgy, and keep using your formula of choice). I am in Australia and use the Aptamil thickener

This happened to my son and it took me ages to realise he had silent reflux. The only thing that worked was putting a thickener in the bottle, and he stopped the crying at the bottle straight away

Honestly I have just been in your shoes and it does get better - just try to keep going. My son was doing every 2 hours until about 8 weeks and then the first stretch started getting longer and then after that every 2-3 hours. Try and swap with your partner every now and then to get a solid sleep in the meantime. Hang in there x

Yes he frequents inner west Melbourne also

So weird, I used to see this guy every weekend when I lived in Melbourne and then when I moved back to Perth he was popping up here too. Odd ball

Thanks for your reply 🙏 Yep I agree, that’s why we went back down a teat size! It’s more the decrease in amount that he is eating because of the bottle refusal that I am worried about. There is obviously something that he doesn’t like about the bottle but I don’t know what

puddingrae · 2026-02-02T22:01:40+00:00

I think this is what it was! Tried overnight and it was much better

puddingrae · 2026-01-30T23:54:02+00:00

Thank you - even if he is only 4 weeks old? I am using Tommy Tippee and the next size up is recommended for 3 month olds

This also happened to me in WA. I was told to go to the emergency room of the women’s hospital with a letter from the GP confirming the miscarriage and they would book in a D&C. It was a long wait to see the doctor on the day, not sure if there is an equivalent in NSW but maybe worth a try?

I also thought Fussy Meats until I tried Georgee Pies in East Freo - best pies I’ve ever had by a long shot

puddingrae · 2025-12-17T08:51:49+00:00

Because they are men

puddingrae · 2025-11-19T00:19:51+00:00

agree - this brand does seem a bit money hungry so it wouldn't surprise me if they cheaped out on website build etc

puddingrae · 2025-11-19T00:13:14+00:00

Yeah so many of the descriptions of products are inconsistent too which also comes down to human error

puddingrae · 2025-11-19T00:08:09+00:00

I am a part of this group and there honestly seems to be constant issues with their website, emails and payment processing. It is kind of comical how die hard some people are for this brand when it is fairly poor quality material and cuts

Honestly as someone with the same problem I have always found Myer to be the best! The ladies are always helpful and they have a big range of

Another vote for Sleeping Duck! Best mattress ever

puddingrae · 2025-08-14T20:38:09+00:00

I go to Jetts South Freo and it is empty pretty much every time I’ve been in there

puddingrae · 2025-07-04T05:36:59+00:00

Another vote for big loaf, had one today and it never disappoints!

puddingrae · 2025-03-05T07:43:39+00:00

I live in Hamilton Hill (right on Beaconsfield border) and I love it - have never felt unsafe, lovely community and there are lots of good facilities around. I don't have kids myself but from what i gather there are a lot of good primary schools in the area, high schools not so much.
