Potty training, help please!!

So we started potty training our little boy 8 days ago and he started off having 3/4 accidents which I was expecting. Then by day 4/5 he was only having 1 accident. He was so happy to go on the toilet/potty and telling us he needed to go and we're using a sticker chart and he then gets a reward after a few stickers....

Early teething?

My 5 week old has been drooling lots, increasingly fussy and putting her hand to her cheek for about a week now so when she had one of her screaming episodes earlier I looked in her mouth and saw what looks to be a tooth coming through. As a first time mum I’m not sure what to expect - does this actually look like...

Sept 2021 night pull ups

My oldest is 3 and a bit. He’s fully potty trained during the day. In pants at home and nursery and no accidents. We still put a pull up on at night.

My toddler has completely stopped caring about if she pees on the floor or in her underwear.

I’ve been told that peeing on the floor is shocking and that wet underwear is uncomfortable so she will want to pee in the potty because that’s the most comfortable option. For a while it did work, but now she is unfazed by it. I don’t know what to do anymore…

Blisters or oral thrush?

Anyone have and idea what this is the tongue isn’t white and when I’ve wiped them the white has gone away but there’s still little marks there so it could have been leftover milk from her bottle stuck on blisters?

Teething symptoms

Can anyone help work out if my baby girl is teething or not? My baby girl has started to get irritable and seems uncomfortable most of the time and her cheeks are always flushed and red. She is 11 weeks old? Is this a sign teething is starting?

Which type of potty?!

I’m wondering what to buy for my little boy. He’s already very intrigued by the toilet and loves pressing the flusher so I’m thinking maybe the nuby mini toilet but then I’m thinking it might confuse him if he only has the usual potty at nursery. Any recommendations or success stories using one over the other? TIA
