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!

Waited too long to potty train my almost 4 year old boy. Working on my 2 year old girl now, and she seems to be picking it up with ME. However, when my husband is with her, she seems to be more anxious about it. My son refuses to go to the toilet with dad and there’s power struggles daily. I AM TIRED OF SAVING MY H...

My LO is 6 months and she’s been teething on and off for the past couple months, her most recent phase has really unsettled her but I’m now noticing a whitish area on her gums but the location seems off to me, it’s completely thrown my off on where her teeth are supposed to be coming through, I was expecting to see ...

My little boy is 3 in February and is not potty trained at all. I'm so embarrassed, I feel like I've let him down by leaving him so long and he'll never show any signs of being ready cos it's easier to stay in nappies. I'd just like some advice I suppose, especially from people with carpets 😂 how did you go about…

What is everyone doing to potty train their kids cause I have twins and remembering to put them on the potty on every hour is exhausting.

So my 22 month old is showing signs of potty training I think. -When he sees the toilet he keeps saying mumma sit and goes yay when he sits on it. -every time he does a wee in his nappy he comes to me asking for me to take it off and put on a new one. -when he goes in his nappy he hides and doesn’t want people looki...

I’m trying to potty train my almost 4 year old son. The first 3 days were rough. After 4th day he got it. And now we are trying to get him to go potty before bed and he doesn’t go. He’ll wake up and pissed in the bed. How do I get him to stop. I’m staying at my moms house and she is been a little hard on him. She sp...

When my lb does a wee, it comes out at an angle and not straight. If this makes sense? I don’t know much about boys having a wee so don’t know if this is a normal thing?

Please can I have some advice! My boy is 19 months old and my MIL and I were discussing potty training. She “told” me we need to let him run round with no nappy (diaper) and if we hear he’s going to try a poo we sit him on the potty! I disagree, I think the best way is sit him on it every hour or whenever and if h...

So my son’s 3yr old and still is showing no signs of wanting to use the potty or toilet. He finds it hard to deal with change in routines, doesn’t like being naked obsessed with the nappy being on. He’s done the odd wee on the potty a while back but didn’t seem to want to continue it. His dad’s managed to get him o...

How long can teething last? He started teething 2 weeks ago but they’ve stopped just under the gum line and haven’t moved since? One has slightly pierced the gum but that’s it and no change in over a week. Baby is miserable
