Teething?

My LG is 3 months old, she’s usually fussy on the bottle due to CMPA but recently has been worse, she’s constantly wanting things in her mouth, toys, dummy’s, and when I give her a bottle she’s just holding the teat in her mouth without sucking so I’m wondering if the warm milk is soothing for her. I’ve gave her cal...

First teeth and dentist?

Hi all, has any of you who's babies have got their first teeth already, have started brushing them and taken them to see the dentist? I am reading online the advise is to take them as soon as the first teeth break through but is seems a bit early at 7 months. Any experience with this? Thanks

Gross.. poop..

So my son has always been a morning pooper, usually right when he gets wakes up. Well 3 times in the last few weeks I’ve went in to his room in the morning & he has stuck his hand in his diaper of poop. Twice he was almost playing with it. This morning I swear he was still sleeping, snoring & all, on his belly with...

How to manage Pee/poop accidents outside?

Hey mamas! We've been potty training for a month now and aren't really accident free yet, however, it's time to start taking him out in underwear. I have social anxiety and am feeling so worried about how to handle it when my toddler has accidents at social events, parks, or someone else's home? I'm worried if it wi...

What's next?

So we've officially gotten our boy (3.5yo) potty trained! It's been 2 weeks of success with only nighttime accidents. I don't want to put pull-ups on him at night but I also don't want to wake up with wet sheets (we still co-sleep). Do I have other options? Or should I continue using the pull-ups?

Potty Training

Good morning precious moms. My daughter is now about 2 years old and 3 months. She is not potty trained, but she always tells us when she went to the bathroom. Sometimes when she sits on the potty, she will pee and sometimes she does not, but I believe she is very aware. Are your littles already potty trained? If so...

Anyone else still struggling to potty train their 3 year old.

My son is 3 now and I’ve began again for the second time to potty train him. He just won’t have it. He sits on the toilet and cries and says not coming. Then will do it in his pants . I understand each kid does it when they are ready but he’s 3. Surely he should be ready now 😭😭

How often should you put a toddler on a potty?

He also when he goes to have a wee will say potty potty potty and stop so there is a little drop of wee in his undies and he hol...
