Peeing while changing diaper

My boy is 1 month and I haven’t yet found a way to avoid getting sprayed by pee when changing his diaper. Are the peepee teepees any good or do you guys have any other suggestions?

My son has absolutely zero interest in the toilet.. he is content to go on about his day if he poops, but if we ask him he knows he’s gone (or at least agrees once we ask him if he went).. but he doesn’t seem ready AT ALL..

Teething

Is it normal for a baby to spend weeks in great pain for many hours a day due to teething and still not have a tooth out? Mine has been doing this for 3 weeks and there is still no sign of tooth out.

Teeth

My baby girl has still only got one tooth, should I be concerned? I can feel other teeth under her gums but they’re just not appearing. It feels like she’s been teething forever but with no teeth to show for it 😔
