Rash after giving wheat

My 6 month old tried weetabix today for breakfast and within half an hour this little rash appeared on his face (pic in comments), would you consider this a reaction? He is teething too so I don’t know if it’s the wheat or the teething! He is acting fine in himself

However since the last few months it’s like we’ve taken a step back… he will sit in his dirty nappy for ages and thro...

Potty training

Help! Potty training is proving so difficult. My LO hates the potty we have and refuses to even sit on it. LO won’t sit on the toilet and goes like an ironing board if I try to. I also can’t afford to buy a new potty. Any tips for getting LO to sit on the potty?
