Is anyone's toddler screaming like it's the end of times when they try to brush their teeth. This has suddenly happened over night and she ends up so hysterical I have to stop because she starts gagging due to being so worked up. I've tried every type of distraction but nothing is seeming to work. I'm really worried...

Baby is 5mo in a couple of days and yesterday night he had a blocked nose/stuffy nose which I helped clear up and haven’t had an issue since. Today he has been scratching his ear/above his ear and has been biting my nipple. This is just today it’s started. He keeps pulling and scratching at the same ear and not the ...

Hi, my niece is 4 and will only go to the toilet for a wee, she refuses to have a poo only in a nappy. Her parents and family have tried everything and she still won’t go, Any recommendations

I have a boy so obviously his willy might miss the potty I don't know 😂 I'm not sure if I want a mobile one, what have you found works best?

My son knows when he has a wee and a poo, and tells me whenever he does something. He has also started to hate when I put him on the mat to change him as he lifts his bum so it doesn’t touch him when he poos. The problem is he won’t entertain the potty when it comes to actually doing anything on it. Do I just wait a...

My little boy is 2 and a half, he's been completely dry and clean for 6 days, doing all of his business in the potty, telling me when he needs the potty etc. I have been inside for the 6 days just letting him run nappy free, I've tried putting him in pants because he absolutely does not want to be in a nappy but he ...

When do you guys start lostty training / what would be a good age? I know this is all about what I think is best but i honestly don’t know how or when I should start and what to do either. I’d ask my mom but because I was adopted at 5 years old I was already potty trained and my bio mom says I was really easy to po...

Feel as if it’s was much easier with a girl, but worried my boy will wee everywhere 😅

So tomorrow will be day 3 of potty training my little boy and we haven’t left the house over the last few days. He is doing really well and only had 1 accident today which is a massive improvement from yesterday. How did people find it when they first started going out? I plan on only doing a quick trip to the park ...

When can we start potty training our babies? Our baby is 10 months old and poops twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Can I start potty training him with just making him sit in the toilet set? Or is it too early?

Idk the kind of spiders that bit her but where I live I guess there's a lot of black widows

My 25 month old does fantastic until she’s at nursery. She’s had a few times where she has been fine but recently she just has accidents all day. I looked it up earlier and apparently it’s common but does anybody have any tips if this is the case😫

My 19 week old has been extremely fussy, she’s been screeching non stop and it’s not like continuous and isn’t crying, more like moaning super loudly and screaming out. Is she teething? She’s been drooling loads and she’s been wanting to put things in her mouth constantly but she’s been doing that for a while I gues...

How high has your little ones fever reached when teething? Since last night my son has had a fever of 38.9 and Calpol doesn’t seem to be bringing it down. He has all the classic teething symptoms and a couple of new teeth cut through last week so I’m thinking some more are coming through now… he’s never had a fever ...

Who all is starting potty training now or waiting till their little ones can talk?

Evening My gentle smiley baby is now ratty, wingy, irritable etc etc …. Query due to teething??? Is anyone else having this? I’ve - changed her - distracted her - bathed her - she’s napped well - she’s eaten well Yet we still have a moaning baby currently. Anyone else? How long does “teething” actually last? W...

Took my LO to the doctors today, because he's barely been eating and not his usual self. He has history of weight loss due to a feeding aversion he developed when he was poorly in November. He had to be fed through an NG tube in hospital, and he's only just got back up to 50th Centile since then, so now when his ea...
