Noise complaint law

Does anyone know the law about noise/quiet hours in New Haven? I dont understand why my neighbors who lives above me chooses to wash 2am every morning. The vibrating, jerking and noise from the washing machine is getting to me. Its like their washer is very close to our room and most nights I have to sleep in the couch in the living room. My husband don't mind it and doesn't seems bothered but its driving me nuts.

You’d like to go to the law to enforce your neighbor to not wash her clothes in her house when she has the time to do it?
You just admitted you’re the only one in your household disturbed by it. Quiet enjoyment is something you take up with your landlord regarding what you prefer. Noise decibels heard 100 feet away (consistent loud music) is what that law is for. There isn’t much you can do about people schedules when you live in an apartment

My previous downstairs neighbor and I once got into it because on a Saturday at 3PM, she knocked on my door to ask me to tell my 5 year old and her friend to stop playing dance dance revolution because her baby was sleep.

It’s a very delicate situation. You could talk to her, you could just on the humble be like Hey is there another time that you can run your machine, vibrates your floor and that’s all I hear at 2 AM. If not, it’s cool. I’ll have to live with it, but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to ask

My friend is over from another country but I don't feel like leaving the house

One of my old friend's is visiting where I currently live and we agreed to meet up today but I feel so tired and exhausted from everything that's been going on with me. I feel if I meet her I'm going to end up having another breakdown from the exhaustion which I have been having often. I'm just thinking about how I need to rest to be able to deal with my toddler and go back to work on Monday without feeling like I need another weekend. I'm torn on what to do so I need you guys to help me decide

Post partum dad

I have a 2 month old. A few weeks ago my husband crashed out because he didn't feel like he was getting to bond with her. I started exclusively breastfeeding around that time and honestly didnt see the big deal. Baby and I left for a few days and when we got back home, everything was fine. He was extremely hands-on. He helped with my meals, her bedtime, bath, stories.....for a few weeks it was great. Then he randomly sounds depressed af. He says our lo is better off without him, he wants to sleep all day , he asks me not to watch tv then tried playing a video game. He refused to reply to me when i asked any follow-up questions. Then he woke up our baby trying to race me to the bathroom first thing in the morning . He's doing a weird mix of crying, trying, and giving up. Im starting to feel like I cant handle him not being able to handle life with baby and just want to be alone. Are there resources for men?

So I’m questioning myself am I feeding her wrong time of day and what’s best to mix the food with milk or baby rice please.

Do I need to pay anything when my child starts school in September

I'm a new mum and obviously didn't grow up in the uk. I currently pay roughly £640 for nursery fees. I'm wondering if my expenses will reduce when my LO starts school or there'll be other expenses (besides bags, uniform etc) will my expenses be anywhere close to £600 monthly?

Separation Anxiety

Any of your children have separation anxiety. My son will be two soon and he still does not let us leave the room for even a few minutes without him following us. Is this the norm for anyone else??
