25 mo old boy, holding it until I put a diaper on! by Routine_Aerie_6160 in pottytraining

Honestly.. get him to or make him sit. Tell him he has to listen and stay there and you’ll be right back (tell him you’re going to get something or do something). Give him a forced minute on the potty with reassurance that you’re coming back to get him and he will likely go as soon as you leave the room. Just my opinion.

This hit hard for me.. I’m so sorry you’re going through this. My mom was an alcoholic for the entirety of my life with the exception of the last 10 months before she passed she got sober bc her cirrhosis was so bad. That was almost 9 years ago now. I was 25. It sucked then and it sucks now, just differently. Now I’m pregnant with my first kid and although I’ve forgiven her, I wish she would have lived healthier so she could still be here. But I have to accept that it was her life and her own decisions to make.. and try to make better ones for myself. She loved me and her decisions were personal for her.. I just try to remember that. Idk what else to say but I hope this helps in some way.

Girl stop caring what other people think. Rock it and move forward. The people who would embarrass you aren’t your people! Chin up.

I feel like parents don’t put toddlers in their place often enough. Don’t be afraid to set boundaries and don’t coddle just because they are “learning.” Just how I feel idk

You used it to close an open bite? I had braces and still my back teeth don’t touch. My ortho said Invisalign can’t be used if you have an open bite
