Ah now, that poor little lad is constantly sick. He needs his tonsils out if they’re at him again 😔

It’s a long process getting referred & them having the actual procedure done. I’m pretty sure she already started the ball rolling for the referral though.

90% sure She said before that they have health insurance so they’d probably go down the private route.

She mentioned an appointment for ears today, if it was me I’d be onto them constantly. It’s not fair on the poor little thing. I understand the lists are very long but that’s twice in a couple of months. Can’t be easy on him 😔
 
Why is he dressed like a baby in a baby grow drinking Tommie tippee bottles and sucking a soother at 3 and a half ? I understand he has issues or may be on the spectrum ( sorry new follower correct me if I’m wrong) but it doesn’t help by treating him like a pure baba- I think kids thrive more when you treat them more age appropriately and not speak to them like a baby. It’s a bit lazy parenting not getting them off the bottle at least my 3. I know a few people who give their 3 year old a bottle at bedtime but that’s the only “baby thing” they do - not trained, in baby grows, on bottles and soothers is a little bit too much

She corrected herself to day hubby reminded her it was the young one that had tonsillitis few weeks ago not the young fella that she said
Jezs the amount of advertising she does for those suits.
How does she get the child at his age to wear one.
 
I thought she said on one of their 47 holidays he had given up the soother and bottle?? I can’t say too much myself my kids all had the soother until nearly 5!! 🙈 I do think they could be causing ear infections though!
 
my 3yo still has her soother & bottle for bed & sometimes in the evening if she gets hit with a wall of exhaustion or she would be wrapped around my legs whining while I’m sorting dinner. The soother & blankie are far safer than her standing at the cooker with pots & pans on the hob.
my eldest was 4.5 & old enough to understand it was tkme to give them up as I spent a few weeks mentally preparing him for it. My 3yo isn’t quite there yet so I’m in no rush. We still have a lot of bad nights with her so I don’t want to take anything that gives comfort. We were in little one sleepsuits until recently too but now her legs are longer they’re actually a pain for nappy changing.
we stopped with suits a couple of weeks ago & potty training finally clicked this week so it’s def pjs from now on for practicality.
i really wouldn’t judge anyone using bottles & soothers at this age, I know there are concerns about his development, she has addressed this herself & anyone with children with additional needs will confirm that some need things a lot longer than toddler years.
i just hope with all the sickness he’s been suffering with that she’s sterilising them & replacing regularly. Some tonsillitis strains are highly contagious & with other small children regularly in the house it could easily spread. My son picked it up from a friends child as a baby & suffered repeat infections for over a year, I got it from him a couple of times having never suffered from it before

Ah fair enough I might be a bit judgemental on her - I do have some friends also with more difficult toddlers who use bottles at night or soothers but I just think she doesn’t help him by babying him soooo much - and maybe tackle one of the things
 
Did she not say a few months ago that he had given up the soother and the bottle while on holidays. And there he blatantly has both soother and bottle. He's too old. He's closer to 4 than 3. She did the same with Robyn and admitted Robyns teeth were destroyed.

She said they both gave up soother and bottle before Christmas (or some stage last year!) but he ended up needing them again.
 
I can’t judge on the soother my son is almost 3 and he has his still (for bed time only mind you and it was hard work to get to that stage with him!) and except for when he was sick not long ago and needed the doctor we are strict on it. But I completely disagree with giving a bottle and putting a baby grow on a 3 year old he is well past 3 now isn’t he closer to 4? I have to agree with whoever said above that they don’t “need it again” that is just nonsense. But I’d be fairly willing to bed he didn’t give up either of them she was just saying it.

How can he be trained with a baby grow on.
Jezs that long story about a cold sore.

That was me, her story was he was sick (I think) and wouldn’t settle or something like that. He’s 4 in October as far as I know. They’ve absolutely no routine at all there, he went to bed at 11pm one night! 😬
 
Oh yes that was the night she let him fall asleep for 2 hours at 5pm and was shiteing on about “danger naps” such a pile of crap no such thing as a danger nap that you allow for 2 hours. Wake him up. Obviously it’s different when they are sick they all need extra sleep but he wasn’t sick then. She has ruined him the poor child she’s a fool made of him with the baby grows at his age. It’s awful.
 
He is like my own boy a thin build I’d say leggings are the only thing that won’t fall down off him we have that issue here too but somehow the leggings she puts on him just seem all wrong maybe it’s just me I don’t like the prints on them they’re a bit girly or something I can’t quite put my finger on it. She must be reading here anyway she mentioned the bottle and soother after we talking about it yesterday 🤷🏻‍♀️
 
Am I missing something, what’s she so emotional about? The kid was sick and he’s on the mend.. was it life threatening or why the dramatics? No one likes to see their kid sick but it’s inevitable at the end of the day
