How young is too young for the library?

Hi moms!
I have an 8 month old baby girl and I’m trying to find new activities for us to do during the day. I’m wondering if she is still too young to go to the library? If not, what is there to do that would keep her busy besides reading to her? Just curious! As the weather is warming up, we need more indoor activities.

Never no age

I don’t think there’s an age minimum but I started taking my daughter when she was like 6 months old and always loved it.

They also have a children’s book section that has lots of toys.

Definitely check your local libraries to see what’s available. I’ve seen other libraries have more group activities for babies and toddlers, as well.

The East Las Vegas library has a lot of toys and activities for littles to play with. Also the Rainbow Library has story time and toys. No minimum age!

Advice please

I am in a longterm relationship with a drug addict, he takes K daily to help his anxiety.. apparently.. he doesn’t go over the top and get absolutely out of it, but it is a worry. He owes me £6000, he is in major debt.
We have a 2 year old together and I have been thinking of leaving for a long time, i don’t know why i can’t make the move. The house is in my name, we will not be homeless because he would leave.
I just always hope he would quit, but I just don’t see it happening.
I also worry that his dad will want to see him and be doing drugs or drinking, i know we can have someone there to watch him but i don’t trust his family to watch him as they would let him get away with it 😔
I feel so stuck.

Is it cheating?

Husband hasn't been able to have sex with me or cuddle in almost a year. No hello/goodbye kiss. Basically no contact order ig. Today I find hes been following and frequently visiting a sexual FB page and its purely sex content. There were other searches as well. Atp we are married (2 years and 4 years together) we have two kids 3 and 2. He claimed in the past he was ashamed of jerking off and would stop and blah blah.

Once your child was potty trained did they regress back to having accidents?

Just wanting to find out how common this is....

4yo reading and writing level

Advice and question… My 4yo, turning 5 in June can sing her ABC’s, trace most letters(but not write on her own) and identify several letters(but not all). I’ve been working with her to learn sounds and write letters but I’m afraid, is she falling behind?

Would love any recommendations of products/programs to do as she starts
Kindergarten next year.

relationship

I have been with my partner since we were both 18 and now we are both 30.

We have a 2.5 year old, a dog and I’m 31 weeks pregnant with our second.

I still have worked up until this point, I have one more shift left (extremely stressful because they haven’t bothered doing a risk assessment which I am aware is illegal)

I still look after my toddler and dog everyday including meals, dog walks, activities etc

I still do all the washing, ironing, hoovering, watering plants, gardening, changing beddings, mopping, dishes etc including washing and ironing all his clothes.


The other day I was in pain and I didn’t walk the dog so he commented on the fact I hadn’t, tonight he came in from work I’ve looked after my toddler all day whose had very bad diarrhoea as he’s currently poorly, everything was done from hoovering, mopping etc however I’d left 3 dishes in the sink and he had a nerve to comment.


Am I being unreasonable to be pissed off with that? I told him wait until we have another then you’ll know what mess is plus I have changed my toddlers bedding, hoovered, mopped the whole house, toys are put away and apart from a bit of washing and 3 dishes in the sink there’s barely anything I feel I’ve done bloody well considering but of course he’s going to pick out what I haven’t done.
