Hope it’s not off topic, but alone with my 10 month old and there’s a blockage in the kitchen sink. I tried to put product but didn’t help. I may have called 15 plumbers this morning but no one answered. Can you please recommend a plumber in Shoreditch? Thank you!

Are your babies starting teething? Symptoms?

Does anyone know what this is? It started when I was a few weeks pregnant; hurts after i brush so i’ve avoided doing it for a week or two. it’s like a black hole or something

Can you guys explain to me your teeth brushing regimen? When do you do it? Twice a day? How long? Before or after their night time milk? I have not been good about it at all and now there’s literally tartar on his teeth and I’m panicking and am starting a strict twice a day regimen, but i usually do it before the ni...

I’ve seen some people have started potty training and I have no idea where to start, I feel like I’m so behind 😩 how do you do it? Where do you start? I’m going back to work on Monday and just feel like I’ve left it too late to start!

For the past few months there’s been this white bump behind my son’s teeth. He doesn’t show that it bothers him. I thought it would go away but it hasn’t. Please don’t mind the boogers 🫣

Any idea what this white marks are? Got three off them on her gums! Is it an ucler?

For the past couple of days my 2 month old has been trying to put her whole fist in her mouth and she has also been drooling more. I’ve been googling (probably shouldn’t have been lol) but I read that it can be a sign of teething. I’m just wondering has anyone else experienced this with their baby this early on or...

Started potty training due to having more time over the holidays and my toddler showing some signs of readiness. Please share tips!

Can anyone give me any tips or an idea of what to expect for our first experience of teething? We woke up with a red cheek and looking back over the past few days he has been a little grumpy and chewing his hands more. We have just finished the sleep regression and it’s like we have restarted the trauma with fightin...

My son doesn’t wear diapers anymore and does well with peeing in the potty but still keeps popping in his pants. What worked for getting your little ones to poop in the potty? 😅

My little boy has been out of nappies for about 3 months but recently he has been holding in his pee for as long as he can? Anyone else experienced this? We’ve had a couple accidents as he hasn’t made it too the toilet in time due to holding it for so long

My Lo has got just one bottom tooth. I heard many saying it comes in pair. Is it something to be worried about? Is this normal?

My little girl is still in 9-12m clothes and I’m looking for some pairs of knickers for her as she’s using the potty. Would anybody have any suggestions to wear I could get tiny knickers from? Thanks!

Tips for potty training? Did people just stay in for a week? Or carry on like any normal week and just lots of stop for potty?

Currently cutting our first tooth and my little boy is so unhappy. We have used parsons powder and bonjela gel so far. Teething rings, matchstick monkey etc

I’ve been putting it off because I heard you shouldn’t do it when pregnant I’m 4 months pregnant and my daughter is 21 months. She’s kind of started showing signs but I don’t think she’s really ready yet. Also looking for method recommendations

My son will not let me brush his teeth. He puts his tongue against his lip and i physically can not get the toothbrush around it for longer than a second before he does it again. I’ve been brushing since he was 7 months old & hes now 13 months and not getting any easier. What the hell can I do? Im worried they’re no...
