Nose picking and eating - 3.5 years old

My 3 year old is a terrible nose picker and she loves to eat it 🤮

I have no idea where she picked it up from as none of us do it. I really want to get her to stop it as it’s disgusting and people are starting to comment because she’s doing it ALL THE TIME!

Do any of you have nose pickers and eaters? What did you do about it?

My LG around 2.5-3 used to pick her nose and eat it quite a lot too, especially at bedtime weirdly. It is gross but she has stopped doing it all by herself now because she knows how to blow and wipe her nose instead and we let her get her own tissue and she loves it because she’s a big girl for doing it on her own.

My son picks but wipes it in a tissue

I’ve read that children that eat their boogers builds immunity

I laughed and so did my mom because all 3 of her kids did it as children and we were never sick. I’m still never sick 🤣

Help!!!

Am I wrong if I secide to stop doing baths etc for my little ones. We have a 3 and 1 year old. I do all the baths wake up in ams cooking etc. I dont want them to be dirty but it's like I need a break and Im tired of doing it all by myself. He will come up and help after they are out the tub every now and then and that pisses me off. Im taking care of 2 littles one by myself makes no sense. I asked him to give them baths tonight he said I worked all day what did you do...ive had the children all day. We went to church he didn't go. We all know how little ones are.. but what should I do bcus it feels like I'm going crazy

Was she wrong for ignoring us?

We celebrated Eid as well as my baby’s first birthday on Friday at my in laws house. When we were there, some family friends of my husband also came. He calls them his uncle and he came with her daughter who is 27. We have met a handful of times, and they came to our wedding as well. My husband and I have 2 kids. When his uncle and daughter came, she greeted everyone accept myself and the kids. She ignored us the entire time and when she left she didn’t say bye to us either. She was also off with my husband as well. When I asked my husband he thinks she’s behaving like this because he used to visit them almost every day and since we got married and had kids he hasn’t. Our kids are 3 and 1, and the last 2 years has been so intense. Difficult pregnancy and postpartum plus a baby with colic. Is she wrong for being rude to us like this or is it my husband’s fault ? Also why is it always the woman that gets blamed, I almost feel like she’s blaming me for him not coming to visit…

Weaning

Anyone feeling a little lost with weaning, should I be offering my 7.5 month old 3 meals a day? I don’t know by what age how much they should be eating?😩

I think half my problem as well it maybe I don’t eat the most nutritious breakfast and lunch 😂 I never cooked lunches from scratch but I also have a Velcro baby so cooking in itself is a mission

my bump is on the way down but still there and feels hard.
i’m trying to be healthier & exercise..
but my husband keeps treating me!
coming home with mcdonald’s i didn’t ask for or sweet treats on shopping.

i’ve told him i didn’t ask for it and I’m trying to lose weight. it starts an argument and he tells me i’m ungrateful.. even though i never ask for mcdonald’s . he gets all grumpy and says i am ungrateful because i didn’t want him to bring home coffee or treats. i don’t ask for it

i feel like he doesn’t want me to look nice or start to have my life back again
