Teething

FTM here so no clue, my baby’s bottom teeth are coming through, one is cut (I can literally see the gum cut and tooth under) the other isn’t. Once the gum is cut is that the worst of it?

Is this teething?

My baby is 14 weeks old and is inconsolable today, she has a rashy face, dribbling like crazy, chewing on her hand and she has a bit of a sore bum. It’s textbook symptoms but is she too young?

Dog pee/training

My dogs keep peeing by the front door. One of them is pretty trained but she continues to pee overnight next to door. My other dog is 1 and we’ve sucked at training him because when we got him I had a newborn and between the both of them my house won’t stop smelling like dog pee. I clean it thoroughly too. It’s hard...

Teething baby

How’s your baby when teething? Mine has been crying hysterically the last couple of nights and seems in pain when I’m breastfeeding him. He’s also got red cheeks, chewing everything, drooling etc. I just want to make sure he’s pain is teeth related and not he’s stomach as he gets very gassy too.

Potty Training

I feel embarrassed about this but I know every one is different & does things at different times. BUT…my son is not interested in potty training. He only wants to pee in the potty when he wants, which isn’t often & I’ve tried setting a timer every 15 minutes to “try” but I can’t get him in the bathroom. I know not t...

When would you start potty training?

We are moving in January (new house and new nursery), and I am due for my second child in June. Lots of changes ahead! I’m wondering when you would start potty training? I’d prefer not to be doing it in my third trimester.

My little girl is 5 months and slept awfully last night she kept moaning/whinging and today she has been constantly doing the same or crying way more than usual.

Changing Tables

I was at the arcade yesterday & my 22 month old is in the process of starting to potty train & needed to be changed. I enter the family restroom there & open the changing table to change her training pants. As I was changing her, I decided to read the warning label. It said something along the lines of babies under ...
