Following, my babe hates sitting on the potty
she like going to sit on it just for 5 seconds though then she is mad and off
Following . My daughter just turned 3 and she only uses it when her friends or cousin comes over and she goes inside the bathroom with them other than that she keeps doing it in her diaper . 🥲
my kids were all potty trained by 2 just from going potty with their cousins (same age) & then just put them on the toliet every time you go pee or every 15-20mins ! & if you want a lazy day & to not chase them around use a diaper 🤣🤣
I started putting my son on the potty at one year old not expecting anything, just exploration. You just want them to get used to it and not see it as a task. You can go to the washroom at the same time as them and they see how it’s done. You congratulate them when they pee but if they don’t want to on one day it shouldn’t be forced so that they don’t have a negative emotion towards the potty 🤷🏽‍♀️

Toddler is iron deficient
Hello moms! I’m desperate, my little one has never been a good eater he is 2.5 years now and his iron is very low! 11. The minimum is 20. Has anyone had this issue? Any advice on recipes? Iron rich food for picky eaters/ experience with supplements? I’m very concerned! First time and solo mom! Thanks

Hi girls,
I have 3 year old son and 10 months old daughter. Since I have my daughter something has changed in me. I’m always arguing with my partner, always angry and overstimulated. He works 8h a day 5 days a week, he comes home need to rest etc. I take care of both kids most of the time, I wake up at night when my daughter wakes up, I cook , clean and I do literally everything. Don’t get me wrong I’m stay at home mom so this is part of the things I need to do and I’m not moaning about this, but there’s something that just makes me sooo angry and overstimulated. He can rest whenever he wants cause I will always take the kids, when he was ill he could spend the day in bed but when I got ill I still have to run 24/7 and do everything, I can’t go to the shop alone always have to take one kid with me I don’t remember when I had at least few hours off my duty and I feel like even when my partner is working he should help me more at home at least by supporting me mentally. I’ve been really angry and always snapping at him, yesterday he came back home and we were arguing and today same. He said he’s got enough that all I do is shouting and moaning. I feel like he doesn’t understand me anymore and we’re just two different people in parenthood. I really don’t know what to do. He always just says he’s doing everything for our family (we moved to my country and he’s always calling it a sacrifice from his side). I’m just so tired from all of it. On his days off his never up to do anything with me and kids such as going out for a walk etc. it makes me so tired cause I want to give my kids memories and not just sit at home with us all the time but to actually do some fun things and I feel like it’s always me pushing for it. I really feel like not myself lately, my body changed, I don’t want intimacy with my partner cause I’m just sooo tired and he doesn’t understand it. But I think my tiredness is more like mental tiredness instead of physical. Am I being stupid? Sometimes I really dont want to argue but I’m so annoyed that I start arguing🤷‍♀️I don’t know how to get myself back to be normal. I love my life with kids and I feel super good to be a mom but it’s just the thing with my partner that makes me tired.

Homeschooling child with speech delay
Any parents planning to home school their little one instead of public school
I'm thinking of doing so as I feel my little one does so well with 121 support.

Struggling with 2 under 2
My 2 year old is currently under SALT & neuro-disability team. I also have a newborn.
The newborn seems to be triggering my toddler as she's loud - when she cries/laughs/coo's anything.
My toddler won't sit anywhere near the baby. She will cry everytime the baby makes a noise & everytime I pick her up/feed her.
Because she cannot verbalise why she's upset she'll just moan and whinge, she's always been such a happy kid but the baby seems to have really upset her.
I try get as much quality time with both as I can.
My toddler plays independently and is fine for abit but needs constant stimulation & I don't always have the time due to baby.
My toddler doesn't go to nursery due to concerns I have about local ones but goes to a playgroup once a week with my mum & eventually enjoys it, once she's gotten over the initial noise.
I am struggling as I am not getting 10 seconds to myself at all. My husband works everyday & I have limited support. I feel like i'm failing them both, as I can't split my time enough. I'm missing my toddler grow up but also missing my baby grow up.
I feel stuck & I am not always enjoying motherhood. This shit is so hard.
Any tips on how I can get my toddler to adapt to the baby? Or how I can cope? I've become the miserable snappy mum I swore i'd never become.
Love from a very overwhelmed mum x
