Have any on you thought about potty training yet or gone better and even started? If so what have you found useful and what signs did you notice x

Almost four weeks ago my LO started to tell me that she had to do a poo. So I sat her on the potty and she used it. Three times she did that and I was so happy that it seemed so easy. But since these three times she has been refusing to use it. When she tells me that she has to do a poo and I want to bring her to t...

Where can I take my 4year old son who needs to be put to sleep for caps to be put on his teeth due to grinding? Somewhere good and that’s not overpriced? Have taken him to several dentists with no luck and took him another one recently who were really good with him but are quoting us an insane amount and are tellin...

I ask because hes had all the symptoms of it - screaming in pain and the only thing that soothes him is my finger or his teether

I’m at my wits end I’m not sure what to do anymore. My 4 y/o daughter, who has autism (between level 1 and 2 if that matters) isn’t potty training and even worse doesn’t understand discipline. We always had trouble with getting her poop toilet trained. She has gone back and forth with success and accidents for a lo...

For mums who are struggling - I posted last week that nursery had suggested we start and I found my little one was not getting it at all, 4 days in and everything was covered in pee. I persevered with him and provided lots of gentle encouragement, despite being full of mum guilt and thought I was making a terrib...

Found out at the dentist yesterday my 4 year old has a cavity on their back molar and they're concerned where it looks big he'll need to be sedated 😭 this broke my heart 😭 i feel so guilty and like I failed him. The other option is obviously the laughing gas but both make me so nervous 😩 if you've gone through…

Any tips on potty training my soon to be 2 year old? 😊 currently 22 months but runs away from the potty 😅. Touches nappy showing some signs of understanding too of doing a wee or poo.

Trying to figure out where I went wrong. And seems most parents who did both together little ones cracked night time quickly. I'm currently trying night time after little one being dry day time for almost a year and having no succuss

Hi all. We are starting to look into potty training but where’s loads of different potty’s. What are people looking at/using/had success with the best? What’s easiest?

My daughter is 2.5 years old, we have been talking about the potty for the last few months. She will only sit on it with her nappy on and seems worried to try without her nappy. We’ve done two afternoon/evenings without a nappy and when she’s needed a wee, she’ll ask me to put her nappy on. I’ve suggested sitting on...
