Re: Funfair Injury

Oouch! That looks sore! In my experience, this often happens on those inflatable slides so I think if you want to avoid it happening you should either keep your son away from them or only allow him to go on the ones which provide a sack to slide down in. I was on one with my own son at the weekend a...

Re: When is it inappropriate to use a potty?

I'm (well, my son) is on week 2 of potty training so I sympathise. Just ignore the librarian and concentrate on your daughter who seems to be doing really well. We also have the potty with us as, although my son is good at asking, I have only seconds to produce the potty! Consequently, whenever he a...

Re: Emergency children's dentist??

So sorry to hear that. I've been in a similar situation with my little one so I understand how you might be feeling. I'm surprised A&E couldn't better direct you but I would call 111 and explain the situation. They should have contacts of where you can see a dentist in an emergency http://www.nh...

Re: Charity work possibilities with my child?

My son (2yrs) and I visit a wonderful, elderly housebound person (we see the same lady each week) for a chat and a cuppa. We were specifically matched by the charity and it's something i'd wanted to do for ages. We've been visiting for over a year now and are firm friends with the lovely lady who en...

Re: Best baby toys

Our v tech baby walker was a real hit at that age and is still quite popular despite my little one now being 2.5yrs! Another success were some strong cardboard stacking boxes (again, still popular now) like this http://m.marksandspencer.com/mt/www.marksandspencer.com/stacking-blocks-1-to-10-puzzle-g...

Re: Husband's help with newborn

I am reading the replies with interest! My view is perhaps more basic - you have a newborn 2 week old baby and an active toddler. Although you have the help of a Nanny, if you are feeling exhausted I don't see why you can't ask your husband to take on a feed (or two) when you need him to. In fact, i...

Re: Babies bedtime - my son doesn't like bedtime!

I have just been through something similar. I was horrified when my son starting escaping but in reality, we got into a new "big boys bed" routine within a few days and now have no problems. Firstly I would advise buying a children's book on 'my big boys bed' - there are a few around to ch...

Re: Life for mummies in Wimbledon Park

Oooh yes, Wimbledon still rocks! I'm a Wimbledon-Park resident. It's very baby/toddler friendly and you can't really go far wrong with Wimbledon Park (the actual park) with its sandpit, splash pool, play areas, tennis courts, cafe, loads of space etc. Then of course there's Cannizaro which I'm sure ...

Re: Front teeth removal

Sorry to hear about your daughters accident and damage to her teeth. Much like the previous poster, I can't specifically answer your question but I can relate it to my own son's recent experience. He has just turned 2 years old. A few months ago had a very nasty scooter accident which involved him f...
