We used the oh crap potty training method. She has videos on YouTube that are quite good.
We used the ‘Good Inside’ method. She sends you material and “language” to use with potty training. It was quite challenging and definitely not without accidents but the focus is also on growing their independence and helping them recognise the signs of needing the potty rather than making you a dependent
All I’d say is persevere😅 stay in the house for a few days. Just potty trained my boy who’s 3 in December. He wasn’t showing signs and hated the potty initially. I used a small chocolate, sweet or sticker as reward (use whatever your child loves). First 3 days were stressful and I thought he wasn’t ready but on day 4 it just fully clicked. Nappy on for naps and bedtime and made a big deal about taking it off and putting big boy underpants on, got ones with cars on that he wanted to wear😅 On about day 3 he showed signs that he needed to go e.g dancing around, crossing legs. The tantrums about going on I just battled through, lots of distraction.
Good luck!x

Toddler development
My 20 month old doesn’t go to nursery he’s got a friend who’s a few months older than him but does go and I’ve noticed a massive difference.
He can count to 6 and knows his colours. How can I teach my son things like this at home?

Purées
My baby won’t be 4 months until October 30th. But I have been letting him taste purées and he loves them. Do you think it’s too soon to let him eat more than a spoon full? He has got great head control and sits in high chair without assistance

MEN
The more I live life, the more I am starting to realize how much I hate men. I am sure there are a handful that are great. But the majority of them are selfish and literally f*cking dumb.
I have to ASK for help? For things no one asks me to do?
If I decide to cook or not do laundry, it won't get done?
I am beyond tired.
The load of responsibility is not close to even.
Remembering to sign up for parent teacher conferences, which child had a physical due, what sporting game is on what day, washing dirty underwear, cleaning the car from constant crumbs at the car wash, scrubbing toilets and tubs, packing the right snacks for the picky child, then remembering to f*cking shower my own body?!
There's a reason why women are opting out of marriage or having less children. There's a reason more women with children are turning gay and being with someone that understands.
The whole political system, the whole f*cking world is SH*T because of MEN!

Why is childcare so expensive !
😅 i feel like i dont see any 16 year old girls anymore trying to make little extra cash or just moms helping other moms out.
Just me who'd be happy to help a mom out just so she can have her 3 hours to go peacefully grocery shopping or have a break. Its tough to be a mommy. And at the same recover after birth and needing that sleep.
Just me who has to choose between a shower, eating, sleeping or having a quick clean? What's your experience like ? 🥰

14 month old and eating??
Anyone else’s 14 month old overly emotional and refusing food at home? My son goes to daycare while I’m at work, his teachers say he eats great there, often wanting second and thirds. However, when I feed him dinner, he throws it all on the floor for the dog. I’ve tried putting the dog upstairs, me feeding him, and offering a wide variety of different things, and he still refuses. I could understand if he’s still full from eating at school, but he cries like he’s hungry, but doesn’t eat??
Is this normal behavior? Could it be teething?
I just worry because he’s only on a normal food diet and whole milk now(no bm or formula), don’t want him to be hungry😩
