I’m still waiting to see any indication of teeth. 😰 i thought there will be something as she had fever, and is pulling her ears and chewing on everything but after weeks still nothing😂

Has anyone got any ideas for how we can get our daughter doing poos in the potty? She’s been potty trained for wee since July/August but she’s still holding her poo and doing it in her nappy when we put one on her for nap or bed. She also won’t alert us to the fact she’s done one and sometimes we suspect she’s been...

My daughter for about 2 months has been going to get a clean nappy when she poops, we bought a potty for her and she sits on it before a bath the past 3 times she’s either done a wee or a poo on it at what point does it not become a coincidence( while writing this she’s sat on the potty and done a poo) I feel like 1...

I think my 4 month old is teething but I am not 100 % sure and wanted some opinions … his mood switched yesterday like never before. Very whingey, clingy, wouldn’t sleep in his bed from 1am onwards. He has been sucking on all fingers for about a week now and both his cheeks are red and warm (no temperature though, i...

Hiya - my baby is currently teething and seems to be really off his milk, is this normal?

We’re getting a blow out every day with my 4 week old at the minute. She’s in Kit & Kin first size which is correct for her size (3.2kg) so wouldn’t think sizing is the issue. Any tips to reduce this??

Hello everyone, I've just joined this group as I've been told by my heath visitor and other professionals my son has a development delay (he's 3 years 3 months) we sort of knew all along but we're hoping he'd catch up as he was also slightly premature at 34 weeks so have kind of always thought it was that. Only now ...

I've followed EC since my LO was about 8months and she was doing a lot of her business on the potty.... Until she got about 1yo and overnight she started refusing to sit on the potty. She's 14m now and it's just so frustrating. It's like we've never done the EC. Any advice?

Is anyone else LO in a lot of discomfort with teething? It's been happening for the past few weeks... refusing bottles or eating little amounts and in pain so cries or wines. I'm constantly giving him pain relief from Calpol, Nurophen, powder and abesol. He gets some rest bite but is restless a lot of the time. Not...

Anyone in the same boat? Been potty trained for over 6 months but still poos in pants every day. We have occasional poos on potty (usually in the evenings when he is naked) but even not really any progress. He cries when we talk about it and says he doesn't want to poo in potty/toilet and just runs off and hides to ...

Now? Yes, now! We had our first baby back in January. In May, we were slightly ceremonially given a potty by the three year old across the road with the statement ‘potties are for babies, not big boys like me’. Sat our 4mo baby on it that day, just to see what would happen and voila. Wee straight away. Sat her on...

Hi can a dentist charge for no show. We just moved to a new place. We were exhausted and forgot the appointment. And now they are charging 30 pounds and I think its unfair
