How do I get my girl to stop picking her nose?

Alright, I know this is just a thing little kids do. But my girl keeps picking her nose... and then eating it 😭 How on earth do I put a stop to this? I tell her no, fingers out of nose, let's get a tissue, etc. but it's clearly not sticking because she does it when she thinks I'm not looking.

My son was doing this and I just kept saying ewwwww and now he doesn't. Same with the hand in underwear

Granted, he could have just got bored of it and stopped... but I like to convince myself it worked this way

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?

Any mom's who grow their own food?

Hello! This is my third year gardening. This year I plan to Preserve what I grow and save seeds as well! I live in Zone 9. But would love to have mom friends who garden/homestead. 💗 Here’s my corn i sowed the beginning of this month. With the warmer weather my seeds are popping up.

Best way to deter squirrels?? I bought some reflective spinners. We found the little digger in my soil is a squirrel.

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?

Losing the will to live..

I’ve had one of those day.. I’m a solo mom of 2 boys.. my 3 year old has been chaos all day.. every half an hour sounds like..,
‘no, you’re making my bed wrong.. no, I don’t like those potatoes, I want different ones.. no, I want more, I want your potatoes too.. no, you’re a naughty mummy.. no, I want to go somewhere fun.. no, you cut my food wrong’

I literally can’t cope and I’m sickened by my sons behavior so much that I can’t even eat the little dinner that I have seeing as he cried about his own dinner and took half of mine. I’m so overstimulated, overwhelmed and tired of everyday being a mental race of all the things I have to do..

It’s my birthday in 2 days and the only thing I seemingly can do is something to entertain my son but he’s so naughty I don’t even want to take him out😞

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 😕
