No communication from Nursery

So as most people do we signed up to a nursery 9months ago now it’s coming to her starting they are being absolutely shocking with communication, She’s ment to start in two weeks and still no dates set for settle in sessions
I have called them numerous times the last two months as when I looked round they said 2 months before we will get some settle in sessions booked in then when it came down to it it was mentioned to be a month before and then it’s changed to 3 weeks before and conveniently the manager was on holiday last week, I have been back to work for ages and book my work out weeks in advance so if they suddenly come at me with dates I can’t take them off and have no one else to take her in for me, and I have mentioned this every single time I have called them!
I am really worried about my little one going to this nursery now but it’s too late to get in somewhere else and I guess we will lose our deposit and I have already paid for the first months fees
Are all nurseries this unorganised? Am I being paranoid?

Ok for baby??

Can baby have these?? Tesco substituted us like usual. He’s nearly 7 months - would it be ok well done and I make sure they aren’t fatty??

9months old - am I unreasonable?

It might sound silly but I'm a bit worry about my little girl development as my mat leave is over and I'm back to work (hybrid-half a week wfh). My husband will be in charge until sep that we'll send her to nursery. He's is a good and caring dad but he can be a bit ocd for a few things like safety or cleaning...

My concern is that because of his fears he doesn’t let our girl have enough floor time or practice pulling herself up. as he worries she might hurt herself. She’s at a stage where she’s learning to pull herself up and loves to bend and reach for things which I believe shows she’s developing very well but my husband gives her very limited time to practice because he thinks nothing is safe.
For example, we have a shelf in her nursery room that’s fastened to the wall and has a guard on the edges. I let her stand there, grab toys, and put them up and down. My husband forbids this. My daughter also likes to touch our wall mirror and gets excited putting her hands and lips on it but he doesn’t allow her. I’ve tried communicating but there’s no way through.

Am I being unreasonable? Any advice?

Toys

Hi all, what toys are we giving our almost 6 month old babies? I fear he is bored of all the ones he has 😂

Toddlers Activities

I didn’t realize teaching your child to write their name would require THIS much patience
So I made these little fridge magnets for my two year old daughter… we’re taking it one step at a time.
Her favorite part is when I clap and hype her up after…..
But if I look away for even a second… she’s writing on her hands or something else, had to start using washable markers real quick lol

How’s the learning process going for everyone else?

Need encouraging words or advice

Was with my boyfriend for a year and a couple months. We kind of broke up as he said in anger that he doesn't wanna talk to me again. I told him I'll leave him to it then. He isn't over his ex (the heartbreak and the time spent) it's been so long since we've been together now that I just don't get why he's still hurt. And I know he loves her and he's not dishonest about that. Guess I just thought he would move on from it and love me fully but I don't know if he can 😕

How can 1 person make me feel so small??

Sorry for the long rant but this has been on my mind for days and I don’t have anyone to talk to.

For context, I don’t have much family of my own so my partners family have always been amazing to me (especially his mom). We went to his grandparents house a couple days ago & it’s the first time I’ve seen her since the pregnancy and she gave me a bit of a speech that went something like this: “when I found out u were pregnant I wasn’t happy, but everything happens for a reason. My grandson is a hard working man and I’m not gonna see him struggling whilst you sit at home all day doing nothing. When the babies older I’ll help you with anything because I want the best for you but you need to be doing something with yourself not sitting back claiming benefits. You want ur son to say both of you worked hard not just his dad. I won’t let anybody take advantage of him” more context: I’ve been out of work for a while mainly for mental health reasons & I was homeless.

She gave me a hug afterwards but honestly it did make me feel really small and almost like I’m seen as a scrounger using her grandson for his money (I’m really not that kind of girl I don’t even like receiving birthday presents). My partner didn’t say anything at the time but afterwards he apologised for how she spoke to me.

Fast forward to last night, it’s been on my mind so much and genuinely hurt my feelings very deeply. Idk how but it got brought up again by my partner and I basically said nobody is gonna tell me how I need to be and he basically told me to shut up about his nan and “how are you gonna speak about her when she wants the best for her grandchild” I do agree her hearts in a good place but now I’m just like okay so she can talk to me however she wants even tho I want the best for my son?????

This whole situation has made me feel distant from everyone and it’s taken away from my joys of the baby coming because I just feel like other people will try and run my life. Am I overthinking?? I’m not sure because I do think she’s a really good woman who’s raised 5 kids really well and she’s always been nice to me but that speech was the most degraded I’ve felt in my life
