Accident nursery poo,

Got a call from nursery today to say my daughter had taken her nappy/trousers off, got poo everywhere and even put some in her mouth 😩

Has anyone else’s little one ever gone through a phase like this? She is potty training!

Please tell me I’m not alone because I genuinely don’t know what to do next 😭

I havent but ive heard stories. Its usually cos they dont like the feel of the poo in the nappy, which I wudnt be surprised as she potty training. Its a good sign cos shes be more aware of it so will probably soon start to want to go do it on the potty instead.
As for the poo in the mouth, better hers than someone else's!
Also where were the staff when this was going on? It wud have took some time for her to do all that.

It can take split seconds ive had a child stick there hand in nappy rub it over their jumper and on their mouth and over a wall all while I saw the hands coming out of the nappy I'm also dealing with a crying child shouted of another member of staff by the time they ran over it all happened in less then a minute. It happens. Does she wear a pull up or nappy. It's hard as a nappy would be harder in these circumstances as you can tighten them unlike pull ups but pull ups are easier to pull down but they don't really work when toilet training as child can't feel when wet x

If potty training then I’d say don’t use nappies use underwear or it won’t work xxx

Kindergarten drama?!

I need to rant.
During school morning drop off my heart broke a bit for my 6 year old.
She is such an outgoing, all out kind of kid & I know for some, it can be a lot. Even for adults.
Today she shouted a classmates name to walk in with her and the girl turned around, gave the nastiest look & started to walk away faster. The look on my daughter’s face is what did it for me.
Has anything like this happened to your kid and how did it make you feel?
This is all new to me- having a child in school. I just don’t remember kindergartners being like that.
I wanted to turn around and take her home lol.
Thankfully summer is right around the corner for us!

Dad going back to work

First time mum to a baby girl who was born end of April at 36 weeks. My husband is going back to work today and I honestly feel like I’m not going to cope at all. He has been off work for four weeks and with me every single day, he was off and with me the whole week before I had an emergency c section because I was quite poorly and the first three weeks of baby as he extended his paternity by one more week. I have honestly been dreading this day SO much since we came home from hospital with baby, and now it’s here, I feel incredible anxiety.

I am pretty much exclusively breastfeeding baby girl, she has one formula bottle in the evening before bed generally or middle of the night but I give that feed to. My husband does every nappy change, outfit change, settled her when I’m tapped out and constantly makes sure I have food and a drink whilst doing all the house work as I seem to constantly be sat down feeding as we are going in and out of cluster feeding every few days. How am I going to cope without that constant support? 😩

I do have some support from family but a lot of them work full time/during the day so can’t help too much when he is in work. My mum doesn’t work but unfortunately our family dog gets too over excited when I am there with the baby and it’s a bit of a nightmare so it’s not like I can even pop there when I am overwhelmed because of that situation.

I have found the entrance into motherhood really up and down. Some days we have good days, she feeds well, naps well, goes down well at night, we can manage to get out for a small walk or a small outing and I feel like we have archived something then the next day things can all go to shit and I feel like I haven’t got an absolute clue how to look after her or settle her. We seem to be going through a few days of cluster feeding where she’s really unsettled and doesn’t sleep then after a day or two it gets better then we go into it again. I don’t do well in general with lack of sleep, never have!, but I’m trying my best to push on. This heatwave is also NOT helping.

I don’t exactly know what I’m looking for out of this post, maybe some advice on how you coped, tips on how to be organised and make the days easier when you only have one pair of hands, some support and encouragement because at the moment, I just feel like the future is hopeless, I won’t be happy again and I just feel like I’ll be trapped in the house every day of my maternity leave just trying to survive.

Whilst I feel all these emotions, I’m sat here crying because of the guilt of feeling like this because I know I am SO lucky to have a supportive husband and to have a beautiful baby girl.

Thank you if you’ve made it this far 💕

Upset

Am I wrong to get upset at my husband for calling his mom when he gets home to catch up and show her the babies???
So long story short my partner is a police officer works long hours and comes home tired sometimes just comes straight to sleep. Tonight however he came a bit early so I was excited and was going to wait to eat with him. When he got home I started making his meat and serving it on a plate when I suddenly hear him on the phone with my mom.
An I wrong for getting upset because I wanted his attention all to myself since I barely get that.?????

Do you make a weekly menu for your household? Are you a SAHM or working (not remotely) mom?

For those who don't make a menu, how do you plan grocery shopping and meals or snacks?

Where do you send your kids who cannot be home alone during summer break When you have work ?

Like if you have a 11-12 year old who maybe cannot be home alone but is too old for daycare ?
