It has a blister that won’t heal from how often he’s doing it. He’s 2.5 years old. So if anyone has any tips on how to get him to stop cause his teeth are starting to shift as well.

So my son no matter if he’s wearing a onesie or pants, he is constantly playing in his poop. If I put him down for a nap, and he poops, I’ll come in to wake him and there’s poop everywhere. 90% of the time he is still fully clothed and diapered. How do I get this to stop? My older son never did this, so I’m at a com...

My girl has done so well potty training so far. She will do all her wees on the toilet and even when she has a nappy on if we are out she will ask to go to the toilet instead. However, she gets so upset about doing a poo! She’s done a few on the toilet and we always reward with lots of praise, stickers and treats, b...

Can anyone's little ones dress themselves? I've started teaching Oliver how to dress himself with him starting school this year, but wow he just thinks its a game and laughs. He's pretty good at putting his right sock on but not so much his left? Boxers he keeps putting two legs through same hole. Not too bad with ...

Is anyone’s toddler is fully potty trained? Can someone share how long did it take you ? We are currently off nappies in the day and she’s doing really well, but am terrified with car journeys , how do I take her out and about without nappy?

How often should I put my 3 year old on the potty? I keep missing her pee or poop!!😥😩

First time mom, and I was wondering what age did you start potty training? And what were some of the ways you helped your child with transitioning from diapers to pull-up (if that makes sense)

Well well WE HAVE A TOOTH. Last night can only be described as utterly appalling with her waking at 12 and basically being up until we got up. Crying etc. Is each tooth going to be like this? I can only feel the very top of a lower one and it’s caused that much discomfort for her 🦷

My daughter’s been potty trained since August, she did very well and got quickly. But in the last 8 weeks, she won’t use the toilet when we’re out. She’ll hold it. E.g from 8:30 till we were home at 3 when she was really desperate. She is scared of hand dryer so I’m not sure if that’s got anything to do with it. ...

Her body is fine and healthy! I don't want to be the reason her blatter gets all fucked up with bacteria. Help 😭😭😭. I'm just scared. No symptoms -- not sure when they'd start. I'm hopeful she won't get one but just afraid that ive caused it.

My daughter goes literally only 2-3 times a day when she's with us which is crazy! First straight after waking up, then we make her go before going out, and then in the evening before bed. The childminder says that she goes to wee about 5-6 times while she's there (9.5-10h per day),which really puzzles me. Why doesn...

If yes, how did it go?

When do I need to make my LO's first dentist appointment? He has a tooth that is starting to try and cut through the gum now

I have a problem here. My baby does big poos and only recently I noticed the nappy can't handle them. I basically get poopy clothes every evening. She is 5 kg, 10 weeks old and currently on size 2 (Aldi). Size 2 seems to still fit ok, size 3 seems too big. Any tips? Thanks

This is our second time potty training, and weve waited until they show interest to start the transition.. which has been around 3 y/o for both. Our oldest is 5 and when she was three it went about how you’d expect, lots of accidents, but in about 2 weeks she was accident free, and we could bring her out in public w...

Hey mamas, we started potty training our toddler who is 27 months old. The peeing part is going well, however, he's not willing to poop on the potty seat or toilet. He ends up pooping in his underwear when I don't look at him for a few minutes. When I find that he's going to poop, I quickly get him to the potty, but...

Not a high temperature above 37.5 but just feel quite hot and higher than their usual temp?

My toddler has taken me by surprise and decided to start potty training herself. The only reward I had on hand was chocolate spread which isn’t ideal 😂 she’s now requesting this after every potty. What rewards are you offering for potty training?

Potty shot been told girl! But im in disbelief! Lol can see something in between the legs or am i just looking into it 🙈

My little one will not go for a poop! Not even with her nappy on she’ll say it hurts to much we have give her everything possible to try and get her to go to the toilet but we are not on day 5 of nothing!! Previously the health visitor has phoned me with a few suggestions these are not working anymore she’s sussed ...
