Teething

😐😐😐 what does everyone do?!?! 🥴😅 My son is turning 6 months old on Saturday and for the past 9 days now all he’s done is whine constantly (posted earlier about this too and realised I wasn’t alone 😅) How long can babies go through all the whining etc before a tooth actually appears? As I’ve read so much mixed…

Potty training??

Any baby here potty trained? If so, how?? Any advice please. I’m expecting and what’s stressing me out the most is having to change two diapers and spend double the money on diapers! My little one will play and sit in her potty and say pee but won’t actually go yet. How can I start?? Ideally would want her potty tra...

Running free

As of the past week my 17 month old has started randomly taking off her diaper. I have been in the process of potty training her. Luckily there has only been one incident where she peed in the bed at night. How do i stop this before the incidents get messier?😭

Potty training or not at 16 months?

My 16 month old girl has started looking in her nappy when she’s done a poo. When i ask her if she’s done a poo poo she says yes. She now seems bothered and is doing poos more often. Is this a sign, should I get a potty and put it out? any advice appreciated or is this normal girl development? Thanks x

Rant and looking for advice

Hi guys, I’m not really sure what I want from this but I just want to vent my frustration 😅 I have 2 dogs (1 is 12 and one is 11 months) and we recently moved into a flat 3 months ago. We’ve always lived in a house so this was quite change of routine for the dogs as they had to learn to hold their pee until we got…

Teething 🦷

My baby is only 11 weeks old but has been very unsettled the past few days which is unlike her. She’s also been dribbling a lot and sucking on her hands. Is it possible to be showing signs of teething this young? Any help and advice would be much appreciated 😌

Potty

I'm potty shopping 🛍️ going to start my 10 month old having short nappy free times on the potty once a week so they just get used to it. But what potty do I buy? There's different ones and ages and I honestly thought there would just be one universal potty everyone buys 🤦 I'm so confused

3 day method

Has anyone used the 3 day/oh crap method of potty training? If so how did it go ❤️ Day one was so tiring but she did one successful big wee on the potty. Please I need more motivation that this will help?

Diaper free time

I would like some advice from experienced mothers on this app. I want to do some diaper free time with my baby boy (6 weeks) but wondering how to execute this without getting pee everywhere in the house? I feel like diaper free time for a girl is probably much easier. Any recommendations?

He’s had a temp since Sunday (trip to A&E) and it’s been a nightmare trying to give him his meds let alone any Anbesol liquid.

Potty Recommendations

Can you please recommend a potty; I’m not planning to strictly “potty train” more a natural process. My LG has become very intrigued when I go to the loo, and understands we are doing the same thing- she is obsessed with standing and peeing nappy free 🙄 So thought it a good time to put one in the bathroom to grow…

Potty training - clueless!

I have no idea where to start with potty training. Don’t know why, I’m so nervous about it. Anyone else in same boat and don’t have a clue where to start? Nursery said wait until she is 2 and gets moved up a class and they will help. Should I try doing anything at home before hand? X
