Hey, moms! I want to ask what your thoughts are about potty training. When do you plan to start, and how?

My boy has started climbing everything and wanting to walk everywhere (assisted), he’s struggling on our wooden floor with slipping when he’s got socks on and I would also like to let him walk round outdoors. Just wondering if anyone has used the sock shoes and whether they are worth getting/which ones are best? Or ...

So our daughter will happily do all her daytime wees on the potty or a toilet, no dramas! Pooing however is a completely different situation. She will poo anywhere and everywhere other than the potty or toilet. Yesterday it was a strong, solid number on the patio, this evening a runny, yet vast present left for us...

Anyone else experiencing a really clingy, crying baby at the moment! 🥲I feel so bad for him as he just wants to chew everything (I have teething toys and powder to help) but god it’s hard work won’t let me put him down and constantly upset. Usually he loves to play on his mat and go in his chair and he just…

Hi! I have been potty training since Thursday, I’ve kept bottom half off and he’s done really well few accidents but is consistently weeing and has done a few poos too. Because he’s done so well i put underpants on him today and told him to pull them down before weeing and I will help. But it’s almost like he has c...

Hi no dentists seem to be taking on new nhs patients. Currently 9 month pregnant with a 14 month old and worrying about them never having a check up. Anyone know any in Glasgow?

We’re potting training! Is it best to keep reminding him every 20 minutes and get him to Sit on the potty and try or should I be waiting for him to tell me there’s wee coming so he knows when it’s time to sit on the potty ? Any advice or tips appreciated!!

Hello all, so my 2 and a half year old is now potty trained in the day but I am getting a bit confused about when to start the night time training! Is it too early to start now? She wakes some mornings with a wet nappy not sure if this matters. I also don’t know whether it’s better to use night time training pants o...

Anyone else?

If your LO is potty trained - how did you do it/ what method did you use?

I think we are finally starting to make a little progress with potty training. The only thing I am worried about is that my 3 1/2 year old girl will often go around 4 hours without peeing. Should I worry about this? I can't tell if she's holding it on purpose. I don't want her to get a UTI or something. It also take...

My son will be 3 on Sunday and we haven’t started potty training yet. He’ll say he wants to go on the potty but plays while he’s sitting there and does nothing in the toilet. How have you guys potty trained your kids? Am I trying to push him too early?

So my son is slightly autistic and he is afraid to sit in the toliet and go. He can pee just fine standing up. I’m not sure what I can do to encourage him to poop in the toilet 😢

How did you decide between a separate baby potty v. Attachment to your toilet? We only have one bathroom and are starting young (1). I think I am leaning towards a baby toilet for these reasons but I have no idea what I am doing and welcome all advice and opinions.

This might sound stupid but when using a carry potty outside do you just use it public or do you take it to the toilet and use on the toilet floor? I feel clueless 🙈😅 obviously you would use anywhere if there wasn't a toilet but just wonder in public places with facilities. Also we have been using the carry potty…

My little boy, not quite 3 yet.. has cracked potty training at home the past 2 weeks. Always just takes himself or lets me know he needs to go. He does struggle when we leave the house though, either holds it until we get back home or has an accident and only tells me once he is already weeing. Any advice? I’ve ...
