Read the oh crap potty method book!! You can get it on Amazon and I swear it made potty training easy for my son to pick up! We started in mid Feb with him naked and within 2 weeks he was in pants and having minimal accidents, about a month when he only had a few accidents a week. I will say poop takes some children longer (my son would hold it until his nap time when he wore a diaper, as he had one accident in his pants and had a mental break down 😅😢) but now it being 2 months in he is telling us when he has to poop and mainly using the potty! Maybe once a week he will wait til his diaper is on (we still use them for naps and bedtime since he is only 2 and it takes time for their hormones to regulate to hold it long periods while sleeping/it to wake them up)

Also REWARDS REWARDS REWARDS. We threw sugar restrictions out the window and my son got a couple m&ms after he used the potty pee or poop and I swear that's what motivated him to learn 😅😂 but it could be stickers, preferred toys they get after, etc

SMP is diabolical

How’s anyone surviving on SMP!? I don’t qualify for free childcare yet so what I’d be paying makes it my whole salary. I’m not entitled to any help at all benefit wise. Ive paid into the system for 15 years and there’s just no help at all. Honestly feeling so stressed and down 😩

Need advice

my husband is a different ethnicity to me and his mother doesn’t speak great English and none of the older members of his further family (aunts etc) speak any English. We stay with my MIL.
They are all constantly taking my daughter out of my hands (3 months old) and kissing her etc and it is making me so upset. My husband isn’t usually around to say anything and I can’t say anything as they don’t understand me. They seem to be very judgmental and have a very specific way about doing things (cultural) with babies and don’t understand not kissing them or tbh seem to understand basic respect for the baby’s mother. I feel like I have no choice but to allow them to take her out my hands as they can’t understand me anyway and I don’t like causing issues.
My husband has spoke to his mother about it but she tells him o she doesn’t do it🤣 and he is never there - as he works a lot- to tell the extend family when they are round (which is regularly) to not do it.
I am at a loss. I really don’t know how to stand up for my daughter and my self when they can’t understand me anyway? What am I supposed to do?
They literally just take her out of my arms I can’t hold her tight because I don’t want to hurt her and they can’t understand if I say no lol I just idk what to do. And the kissing too?
Help please

Nursery advice

Hi. Feel free to tell me if I am being overdramatic but I need some advice.

Our 13 month old started nursery approx 3 months ago and I just have such negative vibes. He comes home in random clothes sometimes, his nappies are never put on the correct way, he is given different food because they don’t read his allergy plan properly.
I am just fed up.

Would you be mad?

My nephew is 15 we are really close. He got a 47% on a test so I made him a shirt that said four seven instead of six seven. My sister got really mad and I wasn’t expecting it. He thought it was funny and he knows he needs to work hard to get his grade up.
