When to start?

My daughter is under 2.5 years old and I'm just trying to figure out when she is ready for the big step. We've bought a little potty for the living room and the step ladders for the toilet. We leave then oit for her to get comfortable for the month or so. She doesn't really do 4 -7 out of the checklist. Her commun...

Potty training

My 9month old uses the potty daily, I sit them on it often and on nappy changes.. she uses it 9/10 and getting better at communicating with me about it, ie letting me know when she’s done and reaching for the wipes ect anyone else started already?

Teething?

I may have this completely wrong but my boy is 8 months and the last couple of nights he’s woken up and been so unsettled, inconsolable crying which is very unlike him.

I wasn’t sure what to expect but after reading up a bit on elimination communication, I started popping our LO (7mo) on the potty a few times a day. I’ve been so surprised at how well it’s gone so far! We’ve ‘caught’ most poos and he tends to do a wee when he’s there too! He also seems quite happy about it as it m...

Kissing babies

I think I upset my mam yesterday 😓 I was at her house with my baby girl and she kept kissing her on the mouth and I just didn’t know what to say without hurting her feelings , so I sent her a message on the night asking her not to kiss her because of the RSV virus that they can become very ill from 😣

Teething

Baby is 10 weeks which would be pretty early to be teething but is showing signs like drooling more and putting hands in mouth. How do I know if he is actually teething or just learning new things? He’s pretty irritable but isn’t exactly a chill baby anyway
