Potty training and nursery

We’re going to start this weekend and then on Wednesday - Friday she will go to nursery. I’ve spoken to them and they don’t seem keen on her going commando and would like her to come in pull ups. I feel like this will just be backwards steps though. Have you got any advice about how you navigated potty training and ...

3 month old teething?

He seems in pain crying and putting his fingers and fist in his mouth constantly. His cheeks are red and he seems to be dribbling more than usual. I can’t see any teeth coming through though! Could this be the start of teething? Is there anything I can give to help the pain he seems like he’s in? Thanks x

Refuses to brush teeth

Is anyone's toddler screaming like it's the end of times when they try to brush their teeth. This has suddenly happened over night and she ends up so hysterical I have to stop because she starts gagging due to being so worked up.

Potty training - do I start?

My son knows when he has a wee and a poo, and tells me whenever he does something. He has also started to hate when I put him on the mat to change him as he lifts his bum so it doesn’t touch him when he poos. The problem is he won’t entertain the potty when it comes to actually doing anything on it. Do I just wait a...

Potty training.

When can we start potty training our babies? Our baby is 10 months old and poops twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Can I start potty training him with just making him sit in the toilet set? Or is it too early?
