How are we dealing with our teething babies? My baby is 15w and has been teething for a while now but it has gotten worst in the last 2 days .

Starting potty training this weekend and I feel clueless as to how to begin. All advice welcome xx

So frustrated. LO has been showing signs of teething since he was about 3/4 months old. However, for the past week its been different. Drooling, fussiness, loss of appetite, sleep disrupted, wakes up crying, rash on face, chewing everything etc. But there's still no tooth! Google said it should take a week to cut ...

Hi Mum's, Hoping for some advice from you experienced mummas! We have a early developer check today (new to the area, so they do check ins). My little one is 16 months and after pur meeting, she advised to get a potty. I was a little shocked because I thought its a little too early? (I want him to be my little ...

My LB has never had nappy rash before but the last 2 days he seems to have got it 😔 would it be to do with him teething? His diet obviously hasn't changed and he's not been ill, haven't swapped nappy brands or changed the brand of wipes we use... Just seems very sudden

Does it look like that top tooth is coming in? No middle top teeth yet so I’m not sure.. I feel like I see something but it’s hard to get a good look lol

So I think my LG has started teething! She’s 9 weeks, will be 10 weeks on Monday! She’s got a load of saliva all the time, she’s trying to chew on everything and when I feel her bottom gum at the front I can feel something hard and sharp! Surely this is her teething? But I thought she was far too young? Any help...

When potty training do you keep a nappy on them overnight ?

My son woke up SCREAMING tonight and the past couple of nights I don’t know what’s going on with him and he’s completely inconsolable. I don’t know what to do I’m lost and I hate seeing him like this it breaks my heart. I’ve just been giving him a cup of milk and he has been going back to sleep but I would like to k...

Does anyone have any recommendations for a training potty that is better for taller toddlers? I don’t want her to use a toilet seat attachment just yet.

I’m suffering from severe toothache I had a private dental visit today The dentist recommended wisdom tooth extraction due to decay I’m trying to get dental appointment but they have given a date of 14 Feb Does anyone of you know of any dentist who are accepting new patients I’m from Nottingham It will be very he...

My toddler has done amazing with doing wees on the toilet and has no accidents anymore, however we can’t seem to get him to do poops on the toilet. He is willing to sit on there for couple mins and says it’s not coming and ends up doing it in his pants. Any tips please it’s been over a month now 😭

Hey everyone; my 2 year old is fully potty trained and has been for nearly 4 months but the past few weeks he's been withholding his poo to the point of screaming whenever he needs to poo and refuses to go. Toys and stickers aren't helping; I've started him on a prune in the morning and a prune in the evening to mak...

I’d like to hear from anyone who has a kid who is reluctant to potty train and what you did to convince them! Before his birthday we tried for a weekend and he cried every time we put him on a potty. It felt like we were making it more traumatising and he probably just wasn’t ready. We’ve waited until now and ha...

How do you know if your LO has started teething? My LO is usually a happy little thing, but today she has screamed the house down non-stop. I’ve never experienced anything like it. She’s been eating her hands all day and nothing will console her. Is this teething and does anyone have any advice??

my baby girls due date is today and idk how to get her moving out. I have been laying down alot because of my joint pain but besides that I don't know what I'm doing wrong. the scheduled a stress test and ultra sound to see if she's OK but I'd rather her just come out I really don't want to be induced

my lo is 6 minths and 2 weeks. We have 2 bottom teeth out and 2 top lateral incisions teeth popping out. I would of though central ones first but doesnt seem to be in order x

We are 8 days into potty training and my daughter is doing amazing. Only had 3 accidents and goes by herself and doesn't have to be reminded/asked to go. However I'm concerned with the frequency of use. We had a family member visit and said she was using the toilet a lot (I hadn't noticed as I was more concerned wit...

My son will be 3 months old on the 29th and I swear he's teething. Super, super fussy, very difficult to soothe, drooling buckets (not literally but significantly more drool the last couple days), chewing on anything that comes near his face. I hate seeing him so upset 😩 plus I started a new job this week and…

Our little guy is only 1.9 years old and not quite ready for potty training.. He has outgrown diapers, for the most part (barely holding on to a size 6 lol) and pull-ups don't hold everything in at night, so he wakes up saturated, and sometimes the poop can't be contained. We bought a pack of diapers for night ti...
