Im looking for some tips ... .my daughter who was a great sleeper had a great routine has now turned it upside down
She's not been well with doctors thinking its asthma and then He had hand foot and mouth so been abit crazy, but now trying to get her to sleep and stay asleep isn't good. She kept climbing put cot so i changed it into her bed which she was happy but it hasn't helped. its got to the point where she'll now bang her head off the walls and door full force causing marks until i go in and get her. I cant have her doing that so it always end up being a long night with tears and bumps and lumps
Might be a long shot dorie90, but have you heard of the grow clocks? They have light up stars that count down through the night, and then in the morning (at the time you set it to) the sun comes up. It teaches them that they need to stay in bed/in their rooms until that time. I don't think my little one would be ready for it or understand the concept yet, but I have friends who have younger children and it's already working. Might be worth a go if you think she would grasp the concept of it x

Does anyone have any idea how to treat spots on a little one, or if its best to leave them?! Toby's come up with some horrible painful looking spots around his mouth/chin.
Is it hand foot and mouth? Are there any more on his feet, hands or groin area. Chloe gad it a few weeks ago - especially face and groin. It went by itself after about 7_10 days. May be best to go to a pharmacy or gp and get checked out x
Hi, I did wonder this but it's only on his face atm. Will give him a check over in the morning to see if any more appear anywhere else. Atm I think it could be from his dummy and where he's had it quite a lot recently due to colds etc I think it's been rubbing (not sure though). Just wondered if there's a way of clearning them or if it's best to leave them alone x
Bless him. Hope it is not in distress. Chloe was fine with it just a fever on the 1St day. I kept away from playgroups for week and a bit as knew others wouldn't want to catch it x x better now than Xmas week x x
Yeah he seems ok. He had a really high temp on Sunday and then the spots appeared on Monday. He's been a little bit grumpy but nothing major. The Dr told us there's no need to no go out and carry on as normal as she said because the spots have come out he won't be contagious anymore. Meant to be at a toddler group tomorrow but reluctant to go, as worried the other mum's will be annoyed if they realise what it is, even though he's not contagious.
Congratulations Fludu! Amazing news and what a beautiful baby Joel. How is it all going with two?
Aw i feel for you with little ones with hand foot and mouth. It looks so sore but is so so common isn’t it? A colleague of mine is off from work because she’s caught it from her son!!
@charbar thanks can’t believe he is already 4 weeks old time goes by so quickly
joggling two under 2’s isn’t easy but grateful for the nursery days now down to 2 days a week and when OH is home also helps just to keep older one busy
this baby a lot more chilled and less fussy which has been a blessing
so sorry for little ones with HFM we had a mild version months ago when it went round nursery

We'be been trying for baby number 2 since January, but no luck yet. Feels a bit scary as with Toby we tried for 2 weeks and I got pregnant straight away. Hopefully we'll get a positive soon.

Hi guys I trust all doing well and enjoying the toddler phase. Is anyone expecting another baby soon or thinking about having another baby?
If weighing the pros and cons of this thought to share this picture of the siblings. J is now 5 months and T is 2yrs.
Awwww they're such big gorgeous boys 😍
I'm sure it will happen soon Louise. Hope you're not stressing too much.
Penny keeps taking her nappy off so think it's nearly time to potty train! Has anyone else started? Any tips? Loving the toddler years.
Love to all
