Is this teething

Lately, I've noticed that my baby has been frequently putting his hand into his mouth and drooling a lot. I'm not entirely sure if it's a sign of teething or if his first teeth are on their way. I'm considering purchasing some teething toys to help soothe his discomfort.

Potty training

I'm starting the potty training thing tomorrow with my little one. She just turned two about a month ago. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips to help potty training along. I know every child is different but I am a first-time parent and totally just winging this.

The issue I am having is... how do yall sanitize it??? Or alternative to this? I use clorox wipes between uses and disinfect it but it stil...

My son was eating breakfast and then kept saying mama and a word I couldn't figure out. I thought he was saying cold. The a/c is on because its…

Potty training

Today’s day four of potty training my little girl and I still feel like she’s not catching on to it. She knows what the potty is and doesn’t have a problem sitting on it she just isn’t telling me when she needs go. I need advice on if I’m looking to much into it? We use a sticker board for when she just sits on the ...

1st dentist apt?

My son is 10 months old and has 6 teeth. I’ve been brushing his teeth with a silicone finger brush and just water. When should your babies first dentist apt be? when do you switch to a bristle brush and start using toothpaste? I plan to ask his pediatrician but our next apt isn’t for another 2 months.

Potty training?

My 21 month old suddenly wants nothing to do with having a diaper on. He will take it off and when I change him he gets mad. Could this mean he’s ready for potty training?

Nappies

What are we doing about nappies? My little boy is close to outgrowing size 7 and I’m aware that size 8 is the biggest size. Do I have to move on to pull ups/drynites after? Is there a cheaper alternative? He is no way near ready to potty train so that isn’t really an option either.

Possibly teething?

My 2 month old is all of a sudden super fussy and super hard to calm down. He’s been drooling a lot lately too. He’s been on the same formula since he was 2 weeks old and has had no issues with that. He passes gas easily so the dr said that isn’t the issue. Checked his gums today and there are two little bumps on hi...
