Toddler & Child

Hi. My little boy (12 months) is starting nursery full time. I start work next week but took this week as holiday so I would be available if things didn’t go to plan. Yesterday I dropped him off at about 10am and he screeeeeamed. I had to pick him up at 2.30 coz he was so unsettled. Again this morning he screamed an...

hi, i was just wondering how i would serve blueberries to a 7 month old and what to put it with im not great with thinking off food ideas.

Hi, so my little one is now 2 and is on movicol which I’ve explained to the nursery, quite a few times when putting him in the car I can smell he’s done No2 and twice he’s been sore, he’s now changed rooms and I’ve told those girls in the room about this but he’s still been coming home with the same problem. I’ve be...

Honestly, I believe God just gave me a sign and a reminder to not take unnecessary risks. 1st time doing this. I left my sons towel in the next room. So I left the room literally 3 seconds tops he was happily playing..15 mins later he tried to crawl to get a toy lost balance as he tried to pull back into a seat p...

My 2.5 year old daughter is ill all the time, and I’m not exaggerating when I see it’s relentless. She’s had tonsillitis 4 times since Christmas and was sent home today from nursery with symptoms of tonsillitis again. I’ll be taking her to the GP tomorrow to confirm. If it’s as I expect, that’ll be 5 times this year...

Hi all, I am wondering if I qualify for free child care. I am a stay at home mum of a 15 month old and I want to start sending her to nursery a few times a week. I know that in September working people get 30 free hours. If my child’s dad works would my daughter qualify if I don’t work.

Hi ladies, sorry need to rant- this group I s probably not the best group to do it in. It’s not baby related but just had a phone call from my mum basically saying she’s bought my brother a house outright where he doesn’t have to pay a mortgage etc where he will pay the bare minimum with everything else etc. she sai...

Has anyone got any good breakfast weaning ideas that isn't weetabix, toast or baby banana pancakes? :)

My 10month will not eat breakfast! What does everyone else do for breakfast? Any advice? I feel like we are trying everything more than once. I don’t want breakfast to become a negative Experiance for him. Unless it’s a yogurt he just will not eat it. We have tried wheetabix, with his milk/normal milk/ adding pur...

I’m 7 weeks postpartum and all me and my husband have been doing is arguing constantly.. he would disrespect me and call me fat then apologies.. but he keeps on calling me fat.. I am starting to feel distant since this has affected me and I’m struggling to look at myself in the mirror 😢

Recently split & my ex just seems to be happy doing the bare minimum he picks our daughter up once a week for over night & thats it..i do 6 days he does 1. He works full time & lives 25 minutes away but i dont feel thats an exuse to not bother seeing her at all in the week. He has a car..the evenings are light till ...

Can anyone relate? I have a nearly 2y/o and a 3m old. Because I am always doing things with my toddler, my youngest is always strapped to me or just observing. I feel like I don’t have any time or energy to do things specifically for my youngest. I adore him, spend all day with him close, he goes on his Playmat ...

Is anyone else going insane trying to potty train their boy? I put him on the potty first thing in the morning, he does nothing. I try to give him juice on the potty to make him go, he won’t drink it. The minute I let him go eat breakfast and drink his juice, he fills his diaper with pee and then brings me a new one...

My husbands grandma visits his grandpa in a nursing home and wants to hold my 6-week-old. She also always tries to kiss her, even when I ask her not to. I’m worried about germs from the nursing home and how young my baby is. Would you let someone like this hold your baby, or wait until they’re older?

So my little one is 8 months old and a couple weeks ago I just got his birth certificate sorted and finally applied for child benefit. I looked on my CRA account and it says CRA will be giving me an underpayment for all the missed months… did anyone else have this and received the money?

I understand that it’s not the easiest part, but he doesn’t even try to interact with our baby and will always pick the toddler over her. Which means I’m not getting much one on one time with him 😞 It’s getting to the point where the baby will just cry when he holds her, even if she was happy moments before. I…
