Hi moms, I have an almost 22 months old that I want to start potty training. Reason why we are starting so late is because he had to get surgery for Hirschsprung’s Disease and that just got done in February… He doesn’t want to sit on the potty and throws a fit to get off it. Any advice would be greatly appreciate...

Hey does anyone know of any manchester area dentists taking on new nhs kid patients for my baby? Any help much appreciated

Not sure if my soon to be 6 year old is getting her molar, but seen this early this morning and need advice on what to do or if it's normal before taking her to the dentist. It's like her gum is overlapping her tooth. Every time I floss it bleeds. She complained about it hurting this morning.

LO has just cut a tooth through, he's on Kendamil Goat milk but this rash has been around his mouth now for a good while, around a week? Does it look like a reaction to his formula or just from teething dribble?

I'm getting ready to potty train my daughter and want to get her some books to help! She loves reading, so I'm hopeful that if she has some potty centered books to read as she is sitting, it will help her learn what and why, and pass the time. Any recommendations? Ones to avoid? Thanks!

My daughter decides to do a poop everytime she’s in the car seat. Most of the time it’s explosive and comes out the sides/or front and back. I’m changing her outfit twice a day and it’s really stressing me😩 I’ve tried sizing down. Tried Aldi nappies, boots, Tesco and now using Pampers premium but none of them are…

We’ve been doing adhoc potty training for the last few weeks. Nappy off when we are at home during the day and so far we haven’t had any accidents since day one. We haven’t had nappy off outside but I’m off next week and it will be with the aim to complete potty training. Just wondered how challenging it is outsid...

Little girl is 9.5 months, I think we’re teething hard😩 but still no teeth😂🤦🏻‍♀️, my question is, can teething cause snotty/blocked nose?

Hey moms what you use to potty train your babies. And at what point did you start or are you thinking to potty train

I have to get a root canal today and keep reading about pain and sensitivity that people have experienced afterwards that doesn’t go away. Also how is the recovery?

I honestly don't mind him being in nappies, but I feel like even when he's ready in terms of telling me he needs to poo/wee etc, he's really resistant to change. He likes to pretend to use his potty but it I suggest pulling his pants or nappy down it's a hard no! He has never done nappy free time and always cries to...

So my 5yo daughter has been going to the bathroom every 30-45 mins but no pee flow comes out each time. I’ve taken her twice to doctor and UTI wasn’t the issue which confused me even more. Idk what to do. Anyone have advice or been thru this before?

My little one has been working with potty training and does great at school but not so much at home anymore. Her teacher suggested getting her some underwear as she tells her teacher when she needs to go. I know they make the thicker ones that way accidents don't run down the legs. Does anyone know of a really goo...

My baby is in a lot of pain because of teething. He’s so upset most of the day and yesterday was the first time where teething pain actually affected his sleep, he could not sleep until about 4 am after I gave him some Tylenol. He pulls on his ear a lot and gnaws aggressively at whatever comes his way. I’ve been try...

Sorry this is gross but any advice on how to encourage your LO to wipe after a poop? My son has been potty trained for quite a while but will not even attempt to wipe after a poo and when I mentioned casually to him that he needs to start learning to wipe himself before he goes to school because the teacher won't do...
