Nursery

I have really bad enxiety and usually try to avoid conflict as much as possible but my LO has come back from nursery with the nappy on the wrong way round and half way up her bum am I over reacting or should I say something? ( it has happened multiple times now )

If someone in there doesn't know how to put a diaper on, its probably not just your baby its happening to. They need to be corrected. I'd definitely say something.

I’d send an email or message if they use an app just to let them know, that way there’s no face to face confrontation

What sort of nappy is it? If there's a staff member who doesn't know how to put a nappy on that's a concern. Is it disposable? Pull up?

I would 100% say something. Even if it’s a pull up, on every nappy brand I’ve had it will say front or back. It’s concerning this person works in a nursery but doesn’t know how to do a nappy

I would ring up and speak to the management or send a message to management. and they will resolve it and provide necessary training. If you just mention it to key person/whoever gets from door then it may not be passed on properly

Would I be unreasonable for saying no to this?

My 10 year old daughter has 4a/b hair and I did her hair in single plaits 4 days ago after finally having the energy to do it again following a really stressful few weeks with her health and a hospital stay. Normally I redo her hair every 2 weeks, take down, wash, detangle, and style everything myself.

Her dad (my ex partner) now wants me to take the style out today so he can take her to a braider over the weekend before they go on holiday next week. The thing is her hair will still looks perfectly neat, and today is a work night for me. Taking the plaits out alone will take around an hour and then I’d still need to sort her hair for school tomorrow.

I think what’s frustrating me is that during his weeks he doesn’t really maintain her hair or take her to get it done unless there’s a holiday or occasion involved, so this feels like extra work being added onto me unnecessarily when I literally just did her hair.

Would you take it out or leave it as it is?

Child protection services

Has anyone ever had their daycare center ring child protection services on them for your children (3yr & 1yr) having bruises? Did the daycare consult with you about where the brusing come from or straight up right child protection services.
Would you change daycare centers or keep at the same place?

I want to change as it has hurt me they couldn't ask me to start with and just straight up rang cps.

What do you eat?

For those of you who give baby anything you eat. What exactly are you eating? What age did you give your baby what you ate? And what sort of spices do you use? I’d love to give baby what we eat but I’m struggling with it as we eat a lot of salads, Indian and food with lots of different spices.

My nan pressuring me to potty train my son

He’ll be 3 in a couple months and she says as he’ll be starting nursery soon that he needs to be potty trained before then and started trying to give ideas.

But we have tried and even got 3 potties in our house (one that goes on the toilet and 2 floor ones), he has never had any interest in them and we have been trying to sit him in them (sometimes not the most consistent I will admit) and he screams.

We have done the no nappy on at all and that just ended up with him peeing 7 times on the floor and we were trying to catch him to go on the potty too, but nothing. At one point he even went to splash in it and even had poop down his leg.

Zero interest in going on the potty, if he’s distracted and sat on it and does eventually pee in it, he doesn’t react to any praise and has even cried because he did pee.

I’ve even tried to say he can get a sticker if he goes toilet on the potty and that didn’t work.
