Would you say this looks like his bottom tooth is coming in?

Is anyone else’s LO going though an extreme clingy phase?? Last 2 days I can’t even go to the toilet without telling her or asking if she wants to come because if she sees I’m gone she gets HYSTERICAL 😩. She’s fine and well, sleeping and eating well but I do think back molars are coming in…

How do I get my non potty trained 19 month old to NOT poop in the tub? 😭 she won’t stop pooping in it every time! Luckily my fiancé is a plumber so it doesn’t bother him to clean the tub after but it’s tedious when it’s right after she’s clean and then does it so we have to clean her again and then clean all the…

Hi all, my lb has nailed using potty (for wees at least) with nothing on. But whenever he has pants on, he doesn't use the potty at all. Where to go next?

Anyone’s baby started teething yet? I have a suspicion my 10 week old is starting to. She’s constantly got her hand in her mouth and rubbing her gums. She’s started resisting sleep and won’t settle unless her hand is in her mouth. She spits out her dummy now and wants her hand instead

Hello! 7 weeks left of second pregnancy and I have yet to potty train my 2 1/2 year old boy. I just read a book and it seems like he’s hitting marks on starting…he can follow simple commands, pull his trousers down by himself, hides to poo… do you think 7 weeks is a mistake to train before new baby or just one of ...

My LO has been teething for so long, however the past week his symptoms have peaked and his bottom gums along the top look quite white. What were the everyone’s experiences the days leading up to the teeth coming in ? Really hope any day now !

My boy is 14 months. He’s got a temp of 39.5, coming down slowly with ibuprofen. He’s breathing faster and got like a whitey rash on stomach (no where else on body). Anyone else experienced this with their little ones? What is it? He’s also teething bad

Hi there, I took my little one to a martial arts free trial. Unfortunately, she didn't want to take her shoes off or join in with the other children. She wanted to go home and was saying no, which embarrassed me. It was her first time seeing this, but it would be good for her confidence, self-defense, and discipli...

She hasn't had a wee on the potty. She is choosing to do it in her pants (which is fine) or she having a few droplets in the potty. But I believe she is holding her wee in. She's gone 5 hours without any accidents but she has been drinking various fluids in between. We decided to go out and I put a nappy on. At th...

Is your little one Potty Trained?

How did everyone get their dummy’s off of their little one? My girls coming up three and I feel like it’s time. We tried to stop using them a few months ago but with potty training and getting a new sibling and her dad moving in with us after him leaving the army we realised she just wasn’t ready. We’ve limited her ...

I noticed the front white spot/sore a couple days ago(i just started giving bm again), I thought it was milk but I tried cleaning her tongue a few times and its not coming off just getting worse. Any idea? And yes I'm going to the dr in the morning

We have been potty training for a while. But the one this is he does fantastic when he doesn’t wear anything and goes bare bottom. The moment I put underwear on him he pees and poops in them. I am wondering if he thinks they are diapers. The problem is he doesn’t care if he pees or poop in his underwear. He will be ...

What can I use for teething? My little boy is 16 weeks and he is teething so so badly, he’s just cried for just over 2 hours non stop.. I tried everything, ashtons & parsons teething powder, cold dummy, teething toys from the fridge, my finger, a bath, rocking/cuddling, you name it! Nothing helped him what so ever…...

Are your LO's potty trained?

Have your lil one started teething yet ? My boy drools a lot but cant see anything

I started potty training my child as soon as she turned 2 in July 2024 and it took a few weeks. She then was trained and had no wee accidents at home. Now a few months later.. she is constantly having wee accidents. She tends to say that she needs a wee but will have already done it by this point. Sometimes I wonde...

Hi guys! My baby is 10 weeks old and seems to constantly be unsettled, we’ve tried everything to try settle her but sometimes it just isn’t enough. Can 10 week old babies be teething or is that too early?! She constantly has her fists in her mouth even after a full feed so unsure if this is a sign or if she’s just a...
