Hi, my son is exactly 19months 23days old and I have started potty training. I’m not sure how to go about it, when he was around 18months I introduced him to the toilet and his potty training seat. I’ve had my husband let him watch him use the bathroom this was a suggestion from our pediatrician. I also was told ...

Anyone else's 3 year old (3 in a few weeks) not potty trained fully or is it just us? He does the odd wee but has only ever done 1 or 2 poos. He doesn't seem fully ready but also I've got a 6 month old so admittedly I've not been focusing solely on potty training. It's so hard to do it all 😂😭 Anyone else?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a pediatric dr that does lip and tongue ties anywhere between orlando or daytona? Our pediatric dentist recommended someone in fort Lauderdale but that is too far.

Hi all. My lb is potty trained and having very few accidents. We're going on holiday at the end of May. Do I still put him in swim nappies? He's not done a poo in his pants for weeks/months but I'm not convinced he'll be motivated to get out of the pool if he needs one.

My 5 year old relative soils herself everyday, sometimes multiple times a day and their parents don't see it as an issue and they say atleast she can read. I'm baffled by that response but want to know if I'm the awkward one or if other people would be happy with this

Evening all, my nearly 3 year old has been toilet trained for wees and out of nappies in the day for nearly a year but she still refuses to poo on the toilet.. She gets herself in a right state when we ask her to poo on a toilet and holds her poos for days and then she gets severely constipated. We’ve started not ...

My 20 mo is starting to show some signs on potty training!!! She takes her diaper off and under covers. I have a little potty where she can climb up and sit but, she’s not really going.

Little one has never had it before, managed to escape it so far but has come home from nursery today and has two spots around her mouth and these on her feet🫠 Does this look similar to how it starts? I've knowledge on what it is but no experience of it

Is anyone using pull ups on their toddler even thought they aren’t potty trained yet? Or using a potty at all? My lil one has massive tantrums when laying down for a nappy change. Is it time to move on to pull ups?

We’ve been putting my son on the potty every time we change his nappy to get used to it. Over the last few days he’s done a few wees and 2 poo’s with no nappy (one on the kitchen floor🤦‍♀️!) - do I just bite the bullet and attempt the every 30 minute method? This whole potty training is a minefield to me!! 🤯🤯 Any…

Anyone with boys find they wee through nappy/clothes? I point his bits down but I think it often moves to side and leaks out! I’ve tried Aldi and pampers…happens in both! Anyone else??🤷🏼‍♀️😅

We’ve started potty training over Easter, it’s been hard but going well and LO has made loads of progress in 4 days. I feel confident that it is the right time as he appears to understand the sensations and can communicate this 80% of the time roughly. We also regularly remind him to tell us when to go. He is back ...

LO has started crying out of nowhere, wakes himself up crying and won’t stay asleep. I tried to check his mouth better but this was the only picture I could take where you can just about see it. Is that a little tooth coming out? It’s a bit white behind that purple dot.
