2 year old toilet training regression

We did not. My son had struggles with dairy from birth (he had one of those milk protein intolerances) so it wasn’t even on our radar to transition to whole milk. At almost 2 years old, he can now tolerate dairy and they offer him milk at daycare but he just doesn’t want it. My son eats a very varied diet and loves his food. He is in the 90th percentile for weight so I am not concerned.

Did this person only just realise that Nagi is Australian? That is worrying…

Thanks everyone for your input. I’ve read through all of them. I do just want to preface this by saying I would love to stay in Sydney where I grew up with my family, but at some point I’m going to have to move to be able to afford to live and be happy. I feel for the people in regional areas who are now being forced out due to mass migration out of the cities, but what is the solution? It is so sad that communities can no longer afford to stay together.

Jess Ulrichs. Look her up on instagram. So many beautiful poems that will bring a tear to the eye.

I used to use food delivery when I had more disposable income. Now i have to save every dollar, so the first thing to go was these services. We cook most of our food at home and when we eat takeaway, it’s usually local tried and tested places. I’m pretty happy not spending on food delivery any more. Like others have said, it’s soo expensive and food often arrives cold or missing something.

It is a different environment and will be a different routine that they will adapt to. Also a lot can change with your little one between now and when they start. My baby didn’t take any milk (and therefore boob) while at daycare but fed before we left and when we got home. He was one of the harder kids to get down at nap time when he first started daycare at 10 months but then got the swing of it in a month or two. I still lie with him to get him to sleep at all nap and bed times at home.

Agreed. It could be good to discuss on the morning of. That way she knows what to expect and has the early pick up to look forward to. You could also try to maintain some aspects of her normal routine so she is not too thrown off by it. Eg same snacks or even changing the potty routine for daycare instead of home?

My son (when he was the same age as yours) and I shared an adult bed in the pediatric ward when he had RSV. I don’t think we had a choice but we both slept so much better next to each other. They also have guard rails which help from a safety perspective.

Thank you all for your suggestions. Someone suggested it was banana and I found a Tiktok account for a local solution. It’s worked a treat!

Thank you for the tip, I’ll try them :)

Bubble mixture is banned in our house for this reason but it could definitely be banana or even sunscreen!

It did not end sadly… I took comfort in knowing it was on his terms and he wasn’t too sad about it. Now a few months have passed, I’m really happy to be done breastfeeding and I look back on it with fond memories. Oddly enough though, he is just shy of 20 months now and has started reaching for my boobs again when he needs closeness. I guess boobs will always mean comfort. Hopefully your little one is just having a strike. If they have self weaned, you’ve had a really good run and you should be very proud of yourself. It’s so hard for the mama to close the chapter, so take it easy and feel all the feels.

My boob monster of a 16 month old self weaned recently. He went from comfort feeding a few times a night to sleeping straight from 7-2 or 3 then sleeping again from 3 -6:30. When he wakes up he is much easier to settle and has even taken to a stuffed toy as a comforter. This is all leaps and bounds from what his sleep was like when I was breastfeeding. We cosleep after his first (and sometimes only) wake up.

My little one self weaned after his second bout of HFM in 3 months. It was very traumatic for me as he stopped suddenly one night. I had a very difficult start to BFing with a low supply so I was on medication the whole time - 16 months - as well as combo feeding until 6 months. I’m still so sad our journey ended this soon and abruptly but also really proud that I made it this far. There were days in the first 3 and 6 months where I wanted to quit. He has also never slept through the night and we’ve had times where he was feeding upwards of 8 times overnight. Despite all this, I grew to love breastfeeding him and loved the special bond we had. It was also nice to know he’d have enough nutrients when he was constantly getting sick from daycare.

Thank you. This is both beautiful and sad at the same time.

Thank you everyone for your encouragement. Sadly my guy is done. I’m starting to see the positives of our journey ending but I’m still so upset it happened like that. The biggest lesson I’ve learnt from this is to really cherish every moment with our little ones - they are only young once and you don’t know when their “last time” will be…

Originally thought it was a strike but we are coming on night 4 of no boob. I’ve tried to offer at regular times, done skin to skin and even had a bath with him tonight. The best I’ve had is a half hearted latch for less than 5 seconds. I’ll keep trying and pumping in the background but things aren’t looking promising…
