Teething

Dentist

Has anyone been able to get their toddlers in to a dentist? My own dentist won't accept my son due to not accepting new patients and others have ridiculous waiting lists.

I have joined a waiting list for him but it is almost 5 years long apparently

Belly button piercing

Does any of you lovely girlies have your belly buttons pierced? Are you planning on taking it out, keeping the same bar in or sizing up? I don’t know what’s best 🤷‍♀️🌸🦋

Toddler 2year + cries all day

Hi everyone, please I need some advice from parents who may have experienced something similar.

My daughter is a toddler and she cries and screams a lot. Sometimes it genuinely feels like she is crying for most of the day, and the intensity of the crying and tantrums can be quite overwhelming.

I understand that toddlers have big emotions and tantrums are part of this stage, but I’m concerned about how frequent and intense hers are. I’m wondering if there is something we could be doing differently or something we may not be understanding about her needs.

For parents who have experienced frequent or very intense tantrums and crying at this age, what did you find was causing it or contributing to it? What changes did you make that actually helped?

I would really appreciate practical advice on what I can start doing from now, how to respond when she is crying or screaming, how to handle tantrums, how to set boundaries, and how to help her become better at managing her emotions.

I’m planning to speak to our GP as well because I want to make sure I’m approaching this properly.

Please share your experiences and anything you wish you had known at this stage. I’m genuinely looking for help and advice. ❤️

7 month old activities

I have a 7 month old and I’m really struggling with our days! She doesn’t nap a lot now and needs a lot of entertaining in the day. We do play at home a lot she has lots of toys etc but I need to get out! We had been going to a couple of classes but they’ve either stopped or changed for the summer hols, we go to the deep once a week. Recently she has decided she hates the pram and screams after about 5 minutes but will happily be in the baby carrier which is great but it’s been far too hot for both of us for her to be in there for a long period of time. She has not set routine so can easily just come with me wherever I need to go the problem is I have nothing to do either haha, my maternity pay has just dropped so I can’t just be spending money either. I would just like a reason to leave the house once a day and wondering what other people are doing with their days?

I think this has just hit me this week as we have nothing to look forward to and I’m aware my money will be tight until the end of the year and I’ve had no adult conversations haha!
