I don’t know my newborn seems to be showing signs of teething? Isn’t it too early? She’s got that rash on her chin, she’s doing this weird thing with her lips where it’s like she’s tryna suck on them she’s clearly having some discomfort. She’s not too interested in feeding and sucking on her hand.

Is anyone else little ones not potty trained yet? My daughter has suspected ASD (awaiting assessment to confirm) and we are finding it such a hard hurdle!

He's had a potty around for a long long time (recently put it away a...
