Is this normal/should I be concerned

Daughter has started pulling this face which usually we think is due to excitement. Only lasts a second or two but it’s the first time I’ve questioned if something is normal or not so thought I’d see what others think. Video shows it near the start, looks like she’s had something sour the face that’s pulled.

Please help

I'm at my wits end. I think my little one is teething but not 100% she has been off her milk for a week, we're barely getting 10 ounces in her. The last day she was been super clingy and is now not eating much. Is this normal for teething?

Top teeth

My girl has her bottom teeth and I felt her top today and she has a sharp point coming through. She had what I thought was a cold but only lasted 24 hours and now I’m thinking it was caused by teething. Has anyone else experienced that? We had no symptoms with her bottom teeth and didn’t even realise they had come t...

Momentum with Potty Training

My LO did his first wee on the toilet tonight!! 🎉 We've been trying to get going with potty training for a looong time, so this is huge for us. Obviously we don't want it to be a one off, has anyone got any tips to keep the momentum going? I was thinking the obvious of just taking him to the toilet every hour or so.

Using the potty as an excuse...

She LOVES sitting down on her little toilet 🚽 BUT now she will…

Do babies get fevers when teeth come out?

My baby had a pretty alarming fever and it lasted 2 days. Before this fever we noticed a new tooth starting to show. He already has 2 bottom teeth but I don’t remember him getting a fever like this last time. Is it more common the older they get? He’s 9 months old now
