Teeth?

Does this look like teething?

Baby has turned 4 months this week… she is inconsolable and is pulling on one ear😥(gnawing and dribbling too but that’s typical for her).
I can’t feel any obvious teeth, and she hasn’t got a fever 🤷‍♀️

Mine is the same but I think it’s more then exploring their body and finding their hands and ears

Usually pulling on one ear means an ear infection. You can press a luke warm rag to ear for about a minute. If she gets a fever, has redness in her ear or becomes more uncomfortable I would make a doctor's appointment. My eldest son had several ear infections as a baby and teething did make them worse. If her gums feel hard or bumpy that means teeth are starting to come in.

My daughter never pulled her ears when teething just when she had a ear infection with no temperature either which I didn’t realise until I took her doctors as she wasn’t 100% and they confirmed an ear infection. They don’t always have a temperature with it so if you’re worried ring 111 and see what they recommend x

That doesnt look like teething to me and it would be unusual for the first tooth to come through there x

Has anyone ever just completely changed their lives to have a massive reset?

Basically tomorrow we tell our family’s that we’ve ever so slightly blown up our entire lives!

I’m going to tell my mum and my in-laws that not only have we sold my business that I’ve had for 9 years but we’ve also sold our home that we’ve been renovating for the past four years. AND after telling everyone we were one and done turns out I’m actually 10 weeks pregnant with baby # 2! 🥹

We decided after Christmas that we just didn’t enjoy certain aspects of our lives so we decided it was time for a change. The problem was we had so many big responsibilities what with my business and the house that it felt impossible to reshuffle our lives in order to get happy again. So we’ve got rid of it all except for my husbands stable and well paid job.

It’s been unbelievably emotional and scary but so far I’ve no regrets.

Has anyone else just decided to simplify their lives in order to start again? I’d love to hear your stories

If your child is a week into potty training do you just whip out the potty in any public place?

My son really needed to go and just running to a corner of the park where the pram was he ended up pooing his pants. I didn’t even know if it was the right thing to have him sat on the potty in front of everyone 🤷🏻‍♀️ but there was nowhere else. Is there anywhere you wouldn’t want your child to go?

How much does your husband bring home AFTER taxes for you to be a full time stay at home mom ?

Even if you are barely getting by it doesn’t matter how much he makes!
I am just curious to see how families are doing it?

Homeschool

My son is about to turn 4. I want to homeschool but I don't really know where to start. Is now a good time to start homeschooling? Any advice or curriculum recommendations

Is anyone else frustrated by the babys father?

So my almost 3 year old, has been taken care almost the whole time by me, dad comes.from work, have to argue almost everytime to get him.do most basic tjings like brush teetj, read a book, he always says is so tired from work, but if anyone calls, he gladly answer and talk for 1, 2or more hours sometimes lying down sofa or goimg out walking outside no matter how cold or hot is! We kind of just roommates, we dont have any relationship beyond being parents of our child. Sleep different rooms, he doesn't seem to care, he provides for all nasic needs, but that's it, is incapqble of playing with his daughter, r3ad properly a book, he will rather build u a new closet i stead of having to deal with our toddler...the few times did a little is beacuse i yell and argue a lot. Anyone going through same?
