Chipped teeth in a 1.5 year old? 😭

My daughter fell and chipped her 2 front teeth yesterday. We went to the dentist today & there’s no concern for permanent issues at this time. She said there are options for evening them out that we can consider as she gets older. These teeth likely won’t fall out until 6-7 years old.

I just feel absolutely awful.

My sons got a chipped front tooth as he fell off the sofa a few months back. They put a gel thing over it and the tooth looked brand new again but not long after it fell off and I got told to just leave it now as it won’t cause him issues but I feel awful aswell that he’s got his tooth like this for so many more years until his adult ones come in!

I think if it isn’t exposing a nerve and they won’t cut their mouths then they tend to just leave them x

My son fell when he was 3 and chipped one of his teeth. When he lost his teeth it fell out!

My 2 year old son has 4 front teeth missing due to a medical issue causing rapid decay

My son wacked two of his front teeth with metal tongs & gave himself a lil crack(around 1.5 years too), it’s unfortunately led to more decay than we’d like, but under our dentists recommendation we started using fluoride toothpaste at 2 years old & have been able to control the decay!

Disney films

Okay so I suddenly feel like a bad mum. I know I’m not.. but in this aspect.

So I’ve a 2.5 year old who has the TV on 24/7 - not literally, we go out daily and she also goes to nursery x4 a week but when home, it’s on.

It used to be a range of programs she’d watch, ms Rachel, tractor ted, waffle dog etc but recently peppa has been her comfort and her go to so she watches.

The ONLY Disney princess film she’s watched and likes is Moana. She’s watched a bit of Cinderella and to be honest think that’s it. No frozen, no mermaid etc.

Then I see all these videos online of their kids constantly wearing Disney princess dresses, how they’ll be sad when it stops etc etc. my daughter doesn’t even have any as she never watches 😭😭😭

Am I being a bad mum by not putting them on for her more??? Instead of peppa I might subscribe to Disney+ so I can chuck that on for her instead?

Thoughts please. What age did your daughter get into all the princesses? I feel this is maybe prime time??

What one thing you hate to admit you would judge someone for ( by looking at them )

Comment others , just curious no hate , most of us judge without even thinking about it I think it’s just human nature as long as you take the time to give eveyone a fair chance I think it’s all okay
Mine is probably teeth & smell
I hate to admit teeth too as I know a lot of people have dental issues but my initial reaction is it judge although I’m trying to stop that reaction

Daycare

My baby started daycare today. It was really hard for me I feel terrible, it went well but she was crying when we picked her up and she looked so sad and lost. She only went 3hours I start working full time on Wednesday ans she will have to go all day I feel like the worst mom. I stayed 9 months with her and we don’t have any family around so it’s hard

Is it normal for my husband to text his gaming team all day?

My husband plays games at night after the baby goes to bed. I don’t really have a problem with that. Sometimes I get annoyed because he doesn’t always clean the kitchen, so the next day it becomes my job. I talked to him about it, and to be fair, he’s been doing his best to improve.

The most annoying thing is that he has a gaming team, and he’s texting them on Discord all day long. It’s so annoying that I’ve told him a few times it feels like I’m living with a teenager because he’s always on his phone texting.

I know he’s not cheating or talking to other women. I trust him, and he’s very open with his messages and everything. It’s just weird to me that he’s constantly texting, even when we’re together spending time as a family. We don’t get to go out together with the baby very often, so it’s frustrating to see him on his phone instead of being present.

Am I overreacting? Is this normal?

Major toileting regression!! Please help 😭

My 4.5yr old boy is going to school this time and we mastered toilet training ages ago. Was dry during the day and night. We even ditched the pull ups all together. He was completely independent, even wiping his own bum.

Now he's just weeing and pooing as he pleases. I don't know what's changed. He's coming home with bags full of wet clothes. He won't tell me whats changed. He won't say anything about it. He won't even ask for the toilet. Just doing it in his pants. All the time.

It's breaking my heart every time he does it and not to mention it's highly embarrasing for us all, whenever we go anywhere he will wee or poo in his pants. Play centres, restaurants. You name it. Even school are getting fed up.

Has anyone experienced this and can they advise how to get back out of it?
