Potty training

We are 8 days into potty training and my daughter is doing amazing. Only had 3 accidents and goes by herself and doesn't have to be reminded/asked to go. However I'm concerned with the frequency of use. We had a family member visit and said she was using the toilet a lot (I hadn't noticed as I was more concerned wit...

Help with pullups/diaper transition?!

Our little guy is only 1.9 years old and not quite ready for potty training.. He has outgrown diapers, for the most part (barely holding on to a size 6 lol) and pull-ups don't hold everything in at night, so he wakes up saturated, and sometimes the poop can't be contained. We bought a pack of diapers for night ti...

Potty training issues

For the past month we have been trying to potty train, when he is naked from his lower half he’s pretty good at saying he needs the toilet or using the potty (a few accidents) but when he needs a poo he will just do it on the floor🙈! He refuses to actually sit on the toilet/potty at all for a poo and I need some…

Potty training - no nappies at night

Teething?

My baby is almost 6 months old, we think she may be teething. She has been having diarrhea, more fussy than normal, and struggling to go to sleep at night the last couple nights. Is it normal for her to be eating significantly less formula than she usually does? For example, she typically will eat 5-7oz 5x a day wit...

What Would You Do?

If you knew someone and all of a sudden they realize that their kid (6y) is peeing in cups and on toys instead of using the toilets (probably going for awhile but thats another issue in itself) and they ground them for doing so, what would you do? What does that sound like to you? I also want to add that this mom...

Teething

I think my little boy is teething. He’s been trying to bite his hands, drooling, seems more unsettled and his sleep is horrible right now. Just checked him mouth and it definitely feels like the two bottom teeth are trying to cut through. Anyone else going through this? Any recommendations?

My 16 month old suddenly likes dummies?

My 16 month old girl never took to dummies as a baby - AT ALL. Hated them. Now all of a sudden she's likes them, when she finds the one random one she has, she uses it. Just curious if this has happened to anyone else? Should I let her keep using it or stop it before it becomes a real habit? Thank you!
