Only does naked wees 🤦🏻‍♀️

We have been potty training on and off since 18 months and we have gotten to the point where she will do wees on the potty 🙌 However, she will only do it when naked.

Potty training nightmare, please advise

Day one and he have had 6 pees and none in the actual toilet. Im basically cleaning all day and I’m heavily pregnant so this is very tiring. Any tips? Did people use underwear/no underwear, after a drink how quickly did you put them on the toilet? What did you do for nap/sleep?

Teething joy 😭

My son has got his 6th tooth coming through and it’s the worst one yet. He is seriously grumpy about absolutely everything. Eating, getting dressed, brushing his teeth, doesn’t want to play 😭 Is it meant to be this hard when teething or has he got a really low pain threshold? I’m using Anbesol liquid. Helpppppp
