Bladder issues 😓

Hey Mamas? I guess I just kinda assumed having a c-section I wouldn’t have to deal with this but since I did attempt a vaginal delivery, that’s probably why. Anyone else dealing with bad urgency?

Y’all I still can’t believe how easy it was! We’d been practicing elimination communication since he was 6mo but around 12mo got lazy and pretty much abandoned the potty except for pooping (he hadn’t pooped in a diaper since he was 6mo). We used the oh Crap! method and I was so nervous but it went so well. It’s been...

Would you think this is something to worry about? See pic in comments

7 months and she does this thing with her jaw so the bottom goes over to the right and her jaw seems unaligned if that makes sense. I’m not sure whether to worry and bring it up to the dentist or it’s just something she does? She has her middle bottom two and middle top two, and two more on the top are currently cut...
