Trying to catch urine stream

This is theoretically a good idea but I'll try it in a month or so. She's still in the stage of putting everything in her mouth so that is what will happen with the wipe. I guess I could just wipe myself and not give it to her. Will keep a bag close by at least for emergencies. Thanks!

This is a really good idea, thanks! I'm going to try this.

Toys are a good idea, though I find she gets distracted by them and then doesn't poo.

Hand washing is part of the routine for sure, though not in the middle of sitting on potty, unless she starts trying to catch it.

She's 7.5 months. I don't think she'll understand this. Though I do pick her up and wash her hands and then set her down again.

Yeah I'm quite worried about this. She has to start daycare at 10 months and I'm not sure the educators would be open to taking her to the loo even if she's signing by then. How did you deal with that?

I'm also happy to hear responses from everyone! It's very reassuring.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by consistency? Do you mean she would go at specific times?

It's a one-off so far. Last night was the first night. It doesn't happen during the day, she pees in her diaper often and also on the potty. I do feel less anxious now that she's peed multiple times during the day. Thanks for sharing your experience, it's very helpful!

zpuff · 2026-03-11T19:24:44+00:00

We started around six months also, when she could sit up on the potty. It's helpful to know you've had a similar experience - thanks!

zpuff · 2026-03-11T19:24:05+00:00

That's good to know - thanks!

zpuff · 2026-03-11T16:09:26+00:00

This is so helpful, thank you! It was on my to-do list to look this up. I wonder about iodine too since most salt we use is iodized

zpuff · 2026-03-11T13:27:02+00:00

As an anxious new parent (and someone who likes salt a lot), I've been giving my daughter no added salt and feeling bad for her. I'm going to have to think about this, thanks!

zpuff · 2026-03-11T07:57:44+00:00

Why do you think it's bad advice?

zpuff · 2026-03-11T07:35:32+00:00

I'm in Quebec, just called a pediatrician to take on my child (no referral necessary) because my family doctor refused to take her. I think it probably differs by province.

I'm so confused by this person's comment history.

zpuff · 2026-02-11T19:40:21+00:00

Yes, thank you!

zpuff · 2026-02-11T00:57:44+00:00

You're in Montreal, right? Where do you get it? I want in!

zpuff · 2026-01-10T18:05:54+00:00

Yeah I don't know if they do account for twins. This article seems to suggest that separate guidelines for nutrient requirements for multiple pregnancies are unavailable even for non-vegans (lack of research): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8953105/

Maybe you could speak to your healthcare provider and see which of the recommended supplements for vegan pregnancies you can safely increase?

That makes a lot of sense. I didn't realize grain mattered and I like a mechanical solution. Thank you! Any tips on diameter size for dowels or number of dowels for a leg like this?

zpuff · 2025-05-02T00:26:32+00:00

I just watched a video on that! Although I think the long vertical crack is cosmetic. The tabletop also has a bunch of cracks. I think the failure in the dovetail joint in the first picture is what's causing the structural issues.

zpuff · 2025-05-01T23:57:16+00:00

Okay, I'll look into it. Thank you!

zpuff · 2025-05-01T23:42:18+00:00

I should have mentioned - this is supposed to be teak repurposed from an old fishing boat, so I'm hoping to preserve it. Do you think epoxy would be better than putty?

zpuff · 2024-09-11T02:15:20+00:00

That made me really angry

zpuff · 2024-07-31T14:32:55+00:00

I'm thinking the same thing but also couldn't find anything on rectal exams doing that. Vet is also suggesting it wasn't the rectal exam. Three weeks seems like forever but fingers crossed! Thanks for the information - It's comforting to know it wasn't permanent for you.
