So I’m on universal credit & work part time… do I need to pay for the dentist? 🤣 I have googled but I can’t find a page telling me what the threshold is for earning in regards to paying or not. Thanks in advance

Sorry new to this part.

I’ll be alone with my toddler and an 8 month old. 🫣I hope this isn’t gonna be brutal but I feel it probably will be lol

Is anyone potty training yet? I feel we should start soon as he’s showing signs but not sure if it’s too early.

Could teething start at 11 weeks? She’s been more bitey on the breast and suddenly started drooling more and more the last couple of days

Never been so chuffed in my life, put little lady on the potty this morning and she did a wee!

My son has started crying uncontrollably since 12:30pm today. He cried for an hour non stop, out of the blue. I thought he was hungry so tried giving him lunch but that caused further upset so I stopped. He had some milk (2oz) and fell asleep for an hour. He's woken up and is crying again like he did before. Shoul...

What symptoms have your babies shown? All symptoms for my LO are pointing to teething. Ear pulling, rash on cheek, etc. Did your LOs also have runny noses?

My almost 3 year old keeps taking off her clothes including her diaper. She’s potty trained during the day and nap time but she still wears a diaper at night. She starts crying in the middle of the night I go there and see her naked. I think what wakes her is peeing on herself. This has been happening for 2 weeks. N...

My son just turned 2. I just bought the Bluey training potty last night. Any tips/tricks/advice? I'm just clueless when it comes to this topic. I have an 11m daughter as well, so if anyone has been successful potty training 2 kids at the same time feel free to lend me some knowledge hahaha. Thanks!

Would you say this looks like a tooth cutting? I can definitely feel something Sharp with my fingers. Thanks ladies

My 2.5 year old has a mouth ulcer and at times a fever I don't know if the 2 are linked or not who should I take them to see Dr or dentist

Hey, So our daughter is 3yrs and 4months old. We started to potty training last year and every time we got somewhere a sickness bug would come out of nowhere and we'd lose all progress. We said we'd try again during Christmas/new year. All failed attempts.. It's now march and we are out of ideas. She seems genuin...

I have a 3yo but he looks like a 5yo. We always try to find gender neutral bathroom stalls when we are out, but it’s not always an option, so I still take him into the women’s bathroom with me. Recently, Ive been getting a lot of weird looks from other women when they see him in there. Even though he can pee and was...

My boy has recently started peeing in the potty but tonight he did a poo in there. Not going to lie it kind of turned my stomach a bit when I was emptying it down the toilet lol. What’s the easiest way to get rid of any poo residue? I just used some anti bac wipes. Does anyone have any easier ways 😆?

My son who is 2 will be 3 end of June hardly does any wees in his nappy during the day? Is this a sign he could be ready?

How the hell do you start potty training a toddler that is scared of the potty and toilet? He will refuse to sit on either and have a massive tantrum..

Has anyone thought about it yet?
