heyy my lo has been so unsettled and off her bottles recently, does this look like her teeth are coming?

My little boy is quite scrawny, so joggers with a drawstring would have to be tied which don’t work, and I find a lot of leggings to be naturally quite tight. Anybody got their kids in anything specific from a specific shop that are easy to get up and down? Xx

My little girl is 3. I’ve tried several times to potty train, and she just wasn’t ready and wasn’t grasping it at all. Now she says “poo poo” when she about too or had done one and she’ll lay down to be changed. So that it massive progress. Those who have done it especially this age, did you find the toilet or the...

I’m at the airport now and wondering at what point do I really suck in my stomach? Is it security?

My LG has been teething for weeks with her top teeth. Do these look close to breaking through or do i still have a long time to wait ? More pics in comments

Hi basically my 2 year old is pretty much potty trained thru out the day (minus when we go out) every single morning around 5am he’ll take his nappy off even if he’s wearing trousers and so far he hasn’t weed after I’m basically asking how do you potty trained thru the night my son hates nappy’s with a passion and I...

We started on Saturday as we had a long weekend and he did wonderful Saturday to Monday only 1 accident, he was taking himself off to the potty for both wee and poos, however he went back to nursery on Tuesday and today and he’s not gone to the toilet once. He’s been having many many accidents, but when he gets ho...

NHS sdvice is to bring baby to a dentist as soon as they have the first milk tooth but it's impossible to find a practice that accepts new NHS patients! Is private the only way to go? Is there any way to track when practices open their waiting lists?

Any tips on this topic would be much aprishiated, for reference I have an 18month old boy xxx

My sons about to be three and he's jot yet potty trained. I feel so shit about it and I've been so sick as I'm pregnant to the point where I'm like on and off with it.

My 6 month old has suddenly doing this thing where it looks like she's chewing anyone know what this is?

My baby’s started wanting to chew on everything, drooling more, and being fussy the last couple days. I took a look in her mouth and I see her lateral incisor through her gums. Anyone’s babies have teeth besides the bottom two come in first? Or is this just a coincidence?

Little man is 7.5 months old and has gone down for bed well for a long time! The last few nights he has screamed and sobbed until he can't breath properly and will only settle for me and not my husband! His top gums are purpley red and look very inflamed but no teeth visible! He is cutting a lateral incisor on the t...

Hi, I'm a FTM and my 6months old baby has been soooo fussy for the past few days and I'm not sure why... We are still waiting for his first tooth to come out even though he has been drooling and chewing on everything for months, so possibly teething pain? I don't want to give him unnecessary medication but also I fe...

We started at the beginning of feb, straight to knickers, very excited for the potty and big toilet, used sticker charts, lots of praise, chocolate rewards. Lots of accidents as expected but getting better then she just decided she didn’t want to do it and so then came the tantrums. BUT, she will happily go at nurse...

Hey mummas, Just looking for some recommendations for the best potty in your opinion. Im not sure why some are £50 but I can see there are a lot of different ones available & want to ideally get one that's cheap & easy to clean

Is anyone else’s 2 year just not interested in doing it ? She has done two poos and a pee on her potty off her own back just randomly but will withhold pee for 6/7 hours if I try to potty train her! I have just left it for now but I am so anxious about it !
