brushing teeth
how do i encourage my 17mo dd to let me brush her teeth? she used to love brushing her teeth and lately, she just suddenly hates it. i'm not sure why. any ideas?
I made it a game with my 20 month old. I approach her with one toothbrush while she's already brushing her own teeth making a noise like a metal detector or something, getting faster as I get closer. Then I jam the toothbrush into her mouth squealing beeping noises. She loves it. If she's difficult I throw her over my knee and make her laugh, then scrub them while her mouth is open.
that's how i got her to start brushing her teeth. me and dh would brush our teeth in front of her. i dunno what happened or what i'm doing wrong. she went from letting us brush her teeth to only brushes her teeth herself to not wanting to brush her teeth anymore ☹️
i also tried a new toothbrush but she's still not interested ?
Maybe she's just going through the stubborn stage lol. Try doing it with her, getting her a new toothbrush of her favourite character and new toothpaste? In childcare we made all the little ones her age and older want to brush their teeth by showing them cartoons and doing crafty activities that made them want to brush their teeth...I don't know what else to suggest!
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Has anyone else thought of this nonsense with her being weird, not having consistent information etc. as seeming a whole lot like the beginning of Glee with the fake pregnancy?!
Moms,
Last year on this day, @mother.of.angels or Amanda Conrad's five year old Hannah Nicole very sadly passed away. Today let's celebrate the life of a beautiful girl who lives on in the hearts of her family and friends, and among the whole Preggie community. Please take a look at her memorial page on our website: ссылка
Last year, everyone left this emoji 🎀 on their posts. Our deepest wishes go out to Amanda and her family and we wish them peace.

Have you tried a musical brush? Or maybe make it in to a game, who is the best at brushing their teeth, who can reach the back ones to make them shiny and clean then let her 'win' and give lots of praise. You could also get some books about brushing teeth to encourage her or use a sticker reward chart
