My daughter has been potty trained for three months with no accidents. Now she has had three accidents in a week she’ll just stand there and pee her pants! What is going on?☹️

Heyyy guys. My baby girl is 13 months old and I’m considering potty training. She’s got some dry diapers after naps and I read that that’s a good sign and her being 1 year old, shes still in the parent pleasing phase making it easier to potty train versus 2-4 years old where toddlers become more independent and do t...

Has anyone started potty training? My daughter has started doing this thing where she will play in her diaper and then come to you and say eww to show that she’s pooped. I’m just wondering if it would be too early to introduce potty training. All my other kids didn’t show interest until 3.

Hi everyone! So today we had a dental appointment and the dentist gave flouride and dyes even though we did not want it and just said he needed it and gave it so quickly …. Did u guys give your children flouride too ?

My daughter will be 2 months on the 2nd and she’s CONSTANTLY chewing on her hands. Even if she isn’t hungry or upset lol Wondering if this is a sign of something I should be looking out for? No tooth buds that I can feel yet

Anyone started it? Completed it? Any advice. Honestly as a single mum working full time I’m just dreading it, I’m just about managing to keep the house tidy as it is let alone having to clean up wee of the floor constantly. Both myself and the childminder have been sitting him on the toilet and he understands the ac...

Potty shot from 16 weeks im in such denial 🤣

I have an almost 3 week old who gives pretty good cues for poops, so I'd like to try EC. But the other night when I was about to offer the training potty we have (for the first time), she was wiggling too much and I was afraid we'd end up with a mess all over the hardwood floor. Any suggestions for how to do EC with...

So, we have done part time EC(at least trying a few times a ay) up until this past weekend. It's has really srt in that she is 10 months this Friday, and I want to be as proactive as we can with the potty. I've increased our diaper free time, and I think I have a solid knowledge of her cue times. But her timing is...

Hi all, I have no idea how but my 10 month old suddenly has some blood from his mouth. I didn't see him hit his mouth while playing. Could it be from teeth? He has 3. I will see if I have to go to the doctor but wondering if anyone experienced the same. Thanks 🙏🏻

Is anyone else struggling with potty training? Yesterday went really well for a first try. Couple of accidents but nothing major. As soon as pants were on and we were outdoors, pee everywhere. No effort to use the potty. Today pants or no pants, indoors or out, we've had accidents every time. Nothing on the potty! I...

It really isn't going well, my son gets excited jumps up and down and ends up peeing everywhere and then I try to put him on the potty but he runs off it or when he does pee he misses the whole thing and pees on the floor. It's stressing me out to be honest. But my partner says he's got more patience than me 😂…

So my cousins baby just tested positive for Covid Monday night. On Monday our babies spent the day together (she didn’t know he had Covid) my daughter has been so fussy during the night she woke up and I checked her temperature and it’s 100.8. She seems to be okay except that. I don’t know if it could be Covid or if...

We started EC with our 13 month old around 7 months and since starting nursery a month a go he has no interest whatsoever. I think because they can’t accommodate EC so he has 3 days a week of no potty. We’ve taken a bit of a break because of this but now want to take being nappy free more seriously. Do we stick with...

4 days of potty training and no progress. She will not go to the potty unless we ask her to do so. Most of the time, she is upset when I mention it and screams no no. We stuck at home bcs of that. She is definitely ready. When pee on the floor, she is upset. She knows where the potty is, but when the pee is coming, ...

My LG decided she didnt want to wear a nappy anymore so we decided to start the potty training. She’s fully aware of when she needs to wee/poo - she uses the potty most the time, but if she cant be bothered or is being mischievous she will stand there, then waits and watches it when she goes. Any tips?

Not the best photo but best I could get. He's been totally off food for the last 2 weeks and I've reverted back to purees just to get him to eat. The 4th tooth on the bottom came through about a week ago and he has 4 at the top. There looks like a big lump on the left side in the photo and I'm wondering whether it's...

Hello, Anyone potty training their little one yet? My wee girl sits on the potty and pretends to pee. Earlier in the week she did a pee on the potty but with her nappy on. She also watches me on the toilet and I feel she understands. I think she could be ready but scared of starting too early. Anyone any luck at th...

My baby is almost 3 months old and these are the symptoms: putting fists in his mouth, excessive drooling, trying to eat everything, irritable, wakes up frequently, screams and cries A LOT, Diarrhea, doesn’t finish bottle and just super fussy and unhappy. (We’ve been to the GP yesterday because of the diarrhea and h...
