My daughter has really stopped wanting to use her kid potty at home for some reason when she used to love it, and us now doing better at daycare instead (probably because she sees other kids using it there). Any tips on how to get her interested at home again? Treats aren’t working

This is just a quick question when is the right time time or age to start potty training ? In my head i thought around the toddler stage but im hearing some parents are doing it around 6/7 months What age is everyone going to potty train there babies?

Baby has been teething for over a month now. Recently started getting really irritable and I’ve needed to rotate between milk pops, Tylenol and soothing tablets.

Is the teeth growing normally or is this something to be concerned about? It looks like it’s out of place.

Hi, I'm 6 months pp and have bleeding gums. I was told that for the next 1 year I am eligible for free NHS Dental health support.

I'm looking for advice on potty training and a little idea of people's routines around potty training 🙃. He hates the potty and will only play with it 😅,I think he sees it as a toy (it flushes loud and flashes). I've had him on the toilet this morning. He seemed a lot better on toilet,but I'm struggling to make…

My 10 1/2 month old baby seemed to be teething and drooling since about 4 months. He still seems to be teething but no sign of teeth coming anytime soon. Should I be concerned ? I’ve seen babies 5/6 month old with 2/4 teeth and I’m just worried. I know all babies are different.

My 4 months doesn’t want to eat i feel like she is teething and she doesn’t want to take her bottle every time she tries to eat it.

I know you have to fast but when you clean your teeth you don't swallow or consume anything so surely it's safe?! I hate leaving the house without cleaning my teeth!! Happy to hear all opinions. No mention of teeth brushing on my information form, just specifies no chewing gum. 🤷‍♀️🤔😂

Never seen this on any of my kids

My son is 16 months old and now has 5 teeth. Have other parents taken their little ones to the dentist yet, not sure when to start taking him.

My daughters showing signs of being ready I was hoping to try this weekend but after talking to creche they said if she has 3 accidents they put them back in nappies. This isn’t what I want as I wouldn’t be doing this in the house and don’t want her getting confused. Should I wait until half term when we are both of...
