6 teeth before 9 months

So my baby has 2 teeth at the bottom and 4 teeth cutting at the top .. but I’m not sure if the order they’re coming in is weird. Her bottom ones came through first and then her front top one, but then the lateral incisor started to cut before the central one. The other central and incisor are also cutting now but th...

When do you brush your baby’s teeth?

My 10mo has 8 teeth and I’ve only recently realised I should be brushing them with toothpaste already, I do them in the morning and again at night but wondering when is best for the night time?

Potty training - regression?

So our little one has been kinda potty trained since August, for a few months he seemed to be doing well with the occasional accident one a week or so. But recently he seems to have 2 or 3 accidents a day. I just can't figure out why, it's so random sometimes while play. Others he knows he wants a wee but just doesn...

Any experience with toddler tooth extraction?

My sweet 2.5 year old tripped on pavement last night during a walk. He was running just ahead of me and lost his footing. He didn’t seem to have any bleeding when we checked him, just a small scrape on his chin. This morning though I noticed a very obvious vertical crack right down his front tooth. He seems to be do...

Playing in diaper

My 2 year old is constantly playing in his diaper. It has gotten to be such an issue because he does it with poop and just plays with the poop. I’m 8 weeks postpartum and dealing with PPD. I mentally just can’t handle this. We started only letting him wear pant/long sleeve onesies/zippies but he will stretch the clo...
