How many of you whiten your teeth? I see so many girls with pearly white teeth and i'm confused lol. I'm 28 and my teeth are definitely not pearly white anymore.

Dentist

I’ve been seeing you should take babies to dentist as soon as their first tooth comes through. My girl has 2 but has only just turned 5 months. When did everyone take their babies?

Potty training

So my 3 year old son acts like he is scared of the potty. He won’t use the small fake potty but he will use the big but tell us he is scared when he has to poop. So he won’t poop unless he is off the toilet and in underwear or a pull up. How can I fix this ?

Frequent accidents after toilet training

Lately, he's been having frequent wee accidents in his pants, and when we speak about it, he says he forgot to go to the toilet. We are careful not to shame or...

Teething nappies

Are these a thing or not? I'm on day 3 of diarrhea with my LO, he is 8 1/2 months currently cutting his first tooth, having formula fine, happy in himself. Only started giving teething powder yesterday so I know it's not that. I'm not massively concerned just would like to know when thing is going to end

Potty training

For a good few months now my son is happy to sit on the toilet and do a wee or poo, but we have to be guessing when we needs a poo or a wee. He even goes at nursery if he's taken. Only thing is he's not fully talking yet or communicating to us when he needs to go. We have tried to encourage him to tell is with signs...

Mouth breather

Is your baby a mouth breather? Do you notice if they’re starting to get a “mouth breather” face? Maybe it’s just me. But if you’ve stopped it, what did you do?

Schedule help

I'm on vacation for two weeks in April. I'm going to keep my son home to potty train during that time. I need help coming up with things that are simple but will keep him entertained that A) don't cost money B) don't involve a TV C) aren't too hard to stop and get him to the potty when he needs to go Thank you

Nothing hard core just on a reliable schedule sitting on the potty. Sometimes she goes other times we don’t. (And thats okay!) I want to…

Potty Training

We have been actively potty training our daughter. She’s 3 and has been in pull-ups since we’ve started. We’ve tried to put training panties on her and she has been going more in her pull ups or training panties and less in her potty.
