I’ve also never been a stickler for brushing teeth at night time until they’ve stopped their bottle. Plz don’t tell my dentist. Thanks xo

Potty / toilet training .
My youngest has recently turned 3 and still wears pull ups and is nowhere near being trained. We've tried a couple of times and they don't seem to be getting it . I'm getting a bit frustrated about it and I feel like I don't have the time to dedicate on his potty training like I had with my older ones because my time is taken up by them .

Yes but if they are decayed that decay can also impact the adult teeth below them.Their baby teeth fall out anyway
my nephew was sick a lot when he was a baby and toddler and the vomit/acid mixed with the calpol made his teeth quite bad plus he was told by the dentist he had a problem with his enamel anyway that didn’t help, anyway he’s losing his baby teeth now and the dentist told my sister she has to be extra careful because baby teeth and how they are treated can carry on to adult teethTheir baby teeth fall out anyway
I know, I was joking!

a little girl in my daughters class wasn’t born with any enamel on her teeth and she’s got to go for 3 monthly check ups! She has to really limit sugary foods and ice cream etc until her adult teeth come through
Me! I’m a single parent too and I would highly recommend doing stay and play as they get swimming and entertainment at night included & you can book activities although I find that some aren’t really for her age range and quite pricy for what it isHas anyone been to Haven? Thinking of taking my daughter this year, single parent now so can't afford (and too nervous
She will be pretty much three by the time we go, just wondering what's included etc
We’ve been to devon cliffs, primrose valley, golden sands, and presthaven all for a week and the first times we go to a new haven I didn’t bother doing stay and play as I wanted to explore the area and there was other things to do.
We are going to Hafan Y Mor in April for a week (not been before) and I’ve got stay and play as I want to be able to take her swimming and go to the entertainment then in July we are going back to Primrose Valley. I book my Haven weeks a year in advance as they’re always £300-500 for a week with the play passes but if you leave it they’re obviously more expensive. We love Haven, I think it’s such good value for a break and there’s always loads of stuff to do. I always try and get a 3 bed so we have a room for stuff but it’s never the end of the world if we just have a 2 bed.
I also do a food shop for the week and take it with us / or go to a local Tesco, Asda close by and stock up! My fave Haven is Primrose, we went up to Whitby and down to Bridlington, Scarborough too and it was just lovely - the sun was shining and we had so many beach days! If you know anyone who works for the nhs you can get 15% discount I think and they don’t check either , when I was non nhs I used my friends discount, but now I’m nhs it’s fine anyway

We go every yearHas anyone been to Haven? Thinking of taking my daughter this year, single parent now so can't afford (and too nervous

Love it!
When we could do out of school holidays, we went twice a year because april/september/October Are so cheap!
You can either get the normal Haven or pay less and get Haven Hideaway which is just the caravan.
Or normal Haven comes with the entertainment passes where you can use to pool/entertainment/arcades ect
We're going at the end of May but school holidays.
Where as out of school holidays we were paying about £70 for 4 nights
We’ve been a few times, but we are now looking at other caravan parks because the one we went to every year really screwed up during covid and put us off going back. I think it does depend, but from our experience, we won’t be going back. We tried park last year, which was good until something happened on the last night, so this year we are trying a completely different one.Has anyone been to Haven?

At haven, you’ll have activities to do during the day, and evening. Mine love the slot machines
Could be. But also may be because she’s at her dads? My eldest always used to sleep better at hers and was up early at homeRandom but this is the first week ever mini A has not had an accident all week since starting potty training in November…… I wonder if this is why she’s been up early, her brain developing etc
MiniGlenCoco always sleeps better at my parents house when we're not there
We’ve done weekends there. Depends which one you go to, but I don’t find there’s a huge amount to do age 3 as they’re too young for a lot of their activities. But you can do milkshake mornings, then the evening mini disco. Plus there’s often a pool.Has anyone been to Haven?

I do find Butlins better at this age as they tend to have a peppa pig or similar show, plus swimming, kids football, the arcades, soft plays etc. and it works out a very similar price
she’s been sleeping well here apart from this week, she would easily sleep 7:40pm to 7am, nursery days she would sleep past 7am but I’d have to wake her up
but since I’ve injured my arm.. It’s gone to tit, I’m hoping she’s gunna be back to sleeping till 7am.. it’s just hard when she’s been literally sleeping 7:30-7am for months on end near enough and 6am the day feels soooo long and she doesn’t nap anymore, this is why I’m not having anymore kids My 3yo is also a 7.15 riser but this week has been waking earlier. Around 6.15, but it’s because the mornings are brightershe’s been sleeping well here apart from this week, she would easily sleep 7:40pm to 7am, nursery days she would sleep past 7am but I’d have to wake her up
I think the birds might be waking her,we’ve got loads of trees at the back of our house. Her room is pitch black even in the day time with the blind and curtains closed so i can’t blame the light
it’s just been one of those weeks! Didn’t help matters having to go into hospital for a general anaesthetic I’ve felt awful all week 
What age do you start putting toddlers in pull-ups, is it mainly when they start potty training? For some reason my 20 month old's nappies have started to leak at the side at night- I've tried switching brands and sizes but the same thing happens. Wondering whether to try pull ups even though we probably won't potty train until she's turned 2 at least.
Thanks for your reply! What's the stay and play pass then? I thought swimming and entertainment was included on the website? I'm looking at one that is about £100. What are the extra activities you have to pay for?Me!

I'm NHS staff so do you get a discount on booking?
I'm actually looking at golden sands because it's not THAT far from me. What's it like?

Love it!

I've looked at Butlins but it's more expensive. I have looked at stuff to do outside the park in the day and we would only go Monday to Friday anyway. Was just wondering what sort of entertainment etc there was for kids. The one I was looking at has this new massive play thing apparently that has stuff for toddlers?!
I have always found pull-ups to not be the best at night time. I have also never used pull-ups as a potty training thing, only on my wriggly babies when they’re being arseholes and trying to escape the nappy.
Pull-ups to toilet train is too confusing. I’d rather stick underwear on them and deal with washing
