alright, my boy is a rockstar when it comes to going on the potty when he's bare bottom....but when we put underwear or a diaper on him, he barely thinks about it at all! some days he's even started telling me he doesn't want to go in the potty and prefers his diaper 🫠. anyone on a similar boat or gotten past this…

Any tips?

I tried my daughter with tomato, both of her cheeks have gone red and feel warm. Is that a reaction or just a coincidence as she is teething?

Would you ladies say this is teething rash her first tooth has now popped through 🥺🥺

What's the best potty for potty training? He's not very comfortable on his big standard one and he keeps putting his hands down his poo nappies 🤢 photo of the poop smearer in question 😂

5.5 yo boy, dry in the day since 3 but still wees twice in his sleep overnight. Hardly drinks in the evening, just isn't dry! I understand it's a hormone thing, still wish his body holds wee or at least tell me. Can you share if you ever actually 'trained' yours?

I've been getting really good at sewing lately and I'm sewing my daughter underwear with tabs for her potty training. I know this is not a thing but does anything think this would be a useful tactic to help ease the mess for potty training. I'm thinking more mess at daycare than home for me but like how would others...

My little one is 12 weeks on Monday. The last couple days she’s been chewing/sucking her hands like no tomorrow. She tries to ‘bite’ our hands or noses if by our faces (she’s not hungry as would have just eaten) She’s more irritable and is fighting naps, spits dummy out & goes to chew hands, cries and go back to du...

About to start but feeling apprehensive. Any tips? My main issue is we are always out and about so how do you manage on the go? Travel potty?

Could this just be a teething rash? He has been producing a lot of saliva lately

Potty training is going terribly! Yes I know he’s only 1 but no better time to start than now… diapers are expensive and life is life’n. My kid refuses to go to sleep without a bottle and when it’s empty he is screaming bloody murder! Tonight I tried to smooth him and just talk him back to sleep… jokes on me he cli...

I think baby is teething - drooling a lot, red cheeks, eating hand constantly & gums look sore at the top - I am a FTM so have no idea what I’m doing! I have teething gel, didn’t seem to help but really clueless otherwise!! Does anyone have any tips or tricks?

I’m kinda getting worried as a first mom here when your baby is teething could it cause fevers around 15months old ? 😓😭😭🥹 should I be worried or is this normal?

Have been potty training for over a month now with very little progress. When did you start taking them out in an underwear? We haven’t done that yet but I’m thinking I should start soon.

Any one got any advice on getting my little girl to tell me she needs a wee instead of wetting herself then telling me? She was petrified of the potty and toilet to the point she would start screaming even mentioning the word she has done a number 2 in the potty any advice is welcome☺️

What age did you start your little ones potty training journey? 🚽 My little boy is currently 18 months old,Recently at least once a day he takes off his nappy by himself..he’s not very verbal yet accept from the odd few words So I’m abit indecisive if I should start potty training him because he’s not wanting to…

Our kiddos are turning 3 in a few months, is your kiddo fully potty trained yet?

2 year old had HF&M, sores healed but still seems in a lot of discomfort peeing or pooing, gets very distressed. GP wants a urine sample to rule out a UTI. How do I get this? She gave me a bag that sticks to her, or a container. Don’t know how I’ll manage either way. Tips appreciated!

How long does the teething pain last? I know it can take a long time for a tooth to errupt, but Google keeps saying the pain and fussiness usually lasts for a week. Asking because my LO stopped sleeping a few nights ago, cries every time he's put down, and won't settle - like at all. It's so much worse than the slee...

I can’t get my toddler trained no matter what I do. She can go in the toilet just fine but she refuses to now and begs for a diaper. If I don’t give her one I can’t get her on the toilet without a fight and she won’t go and she’ll pee where ever and poop in a corner (never the same one). I’m not sure what to do. H...
