I am needing tips/advice on potty training specifically going poop on the potty. My daughter keeps holding it for days or going in her panties. She does great with peeing but pooping is just not going great.😞

We started potty training for pee a while ago, but he asked for his diaper every time he pooped. He was doing great with pee, but we let him have a diaper for poop. I think this was a mistake on our part, but here we are. I can't change things now. Lately, we've been finishing up potty training- nighttime and poop...

My son is afraid (it seems) to pee in public restrooms. He will be dry but will scream no. We even used the toilet to show it’s fine. Any tips.

My little boy tells me poo poo after he has been in his nappy and tonight he said it before he did his poo. Are these signs for potty training? Anyone else’s baby doing the same thing?

We’ve had a potty in our home for ages now and always talk about it and read books about it. For Christmas we got our son big boy pants with cars and bluey characters but didn’t force them on him along with baby shark potty training sticker chart. Today he decided he wanted to use the chart and the pants we had a f...

Hi, my daughter is just starting potty training and I’m wanting to make sure I use a good pull up as she is still not very reliable on just using the toilet. Any recommendations?

I followed the oh crap method and im on day 10 it seems to not really be working. We’ve tried barebum for three days had to put pull up because my son started withholding poop and pee. Restarted again, Now i got him to release pee by bringing him to the tub but the poop issue is still happening. We know he’s not con...

So my LO has been potty trained for a while now for wees, stays dry all day (very rarely has an accident anymore). Tells us when she needs to use the potty or toilet etc. However she is reluctant to poo on the toilet/potty. She still wears a nappy at night so she will poo first thing usually or she will be hysterica...

Has anyone in this group seen a great pediatric dentist for tongue or lip tie? Would love a recommendation!

This might sound silly, but I was just wondering when is best to tackle going out ??…

I feel like I’m not doing well enough with potty training. He’s now 2 and a half and does occasionally use the potty but not often to get him out of nappys. I have it in the front room for him to see as we are downstairs a lot. I have a potty reward chart to encourage him to use it more but we haven’t got to the st...

I’ve noticed my toddlers front two teeth are more yellow since starting on cows milk even with regular brushing. Any advice from dental mummies (or anyone) on how to get rid of it?

is this the start of teething? he’s only 11 weeks! i thought this stuff was a few months away 🤣 he’s been drooling a lot more and chewing his hands but i initially thought it was just part of the development until i saw these two little white bits! i can’t feel them yet so they’re still under the gum. FTM here,…

Hi the past couple of days we’ve woken up to our son taking his dirty nappy off in his bed and get poo everywhere (he doesn’t wake us up until after he’s done it). We’re taking this as a hint as he needs to be potty trained but has anyone else experienced this or got any advice on what we can do to stop him from doi...

Has anyone NOT started potty training yet? I feel guilty when I see so many 2022 babies already potty trained!

My LO has an ear infection. Could this be indicative of a tooth coming or just a coincidence?

My child will be 5 this year. Behavioral issues has hindered the process and my mental health has taken a toll and I honestly keep stopping because it gets to be Alot. I also live with my dad and swinging the potty and the messes he makes intentionally are tricky as I don’t want to break or mess up anything. He is ...

I need some recommendations. Which one should I get for my 22 month old? I want to see if she'll be ready to start using one.

So I recently got a golden retriever puppy. How would I go about crate training as well as potty training him? I've seen so many different ways but I'm trying to figure out the best and quickest way to do so as I also have a baby😅

My 3 year old is potty trained and does great at home. But when we go out in public he does not want to go to the public restrooms at all and throws a tantrum. It’s hard for him to remove himself when he’s busy playing to go potty. How do I make going out in public restrooms easier??? Help!
