Holding Wee / Potty Training

So I'm not sure if anyone else's little one is doing this but our boy tends to hold his wee for 2hr + (This morning he hasn't done a wee in the whole time he was awake 3hrs). Is anyone else's little one like this and just wondering about potty training? We've had a potty since about 8 months old and been sitting him on it for most nappy changes and we had a phase where he was going for a wee on it each time, with the occasional poo, he's now stopped doing that and will only occasionally do a wee, but I'm thinking he clearly has control as when he does wee he always looks down in the potty when he's doing it and then looks yo at us and smiles as he knows he's done good. He also trys to pull his nappy off regularly when changing him 🫣

I've seen loads on EC potty training but not sure if anyone has done it or are going through it at the moment?

I'm just looking for opinions on people that have been or going through similar, I know advice is 2-3yrs old for potty training so please don't come at me with that information, I know potty training can conjure up some strong feelings but I feel like he's showing signs that are often associated with being ready for potty training 😊

Can I have help please

Help, baby dad problem

What would you do?
Yesterday morning I asked my partner to get up with our 1 year old as I do it every morning and I’m exhausted, he’s a 5am waker. He said he wanted another hour as he was nightshift that night so I said alright and got up and on with it, took baby down for milk. About 30 mins later I went upstairs (he didn’t hear me come up) to find him w*nking off?!! Watching p*rn and pleasuring himself while he can hear his 1 year old playing clear as day downstairs. Bedroom door and living room door wide open. I think what he has done is absolutely vile and at the moment I can’t even look at him. I don’t know what to do from here? I also think if he can do that and get off while he can hear his child playing downstairs he needs to go to some sort of therapy for that? Any advice appreciated.

Can someone please tell me if I’m overreacting

A while ago i found out my husband was letting his female friend talk shit about me n he was talking shit as well about me and as someone that I love so much it obviously hurt me so bad I constantly think about it and ask myself why he would do that I bring it up because the first time we talked about it you could see on his face that it didn’t really bother him n that he was getting annoyed by the questions i asked him so it feels like the whole thing is unresolved I have really bad anxiety so it pops up into my head quite often I brought it up to him again because I can’t wrap my head around it and as always he seemed annoyed because I asked him why he did it and he said “i said sorry what else do you want me to do” it was in a text btw where he said sorry long story short he said I was just trying to start a argument because I bring up everything when everything is back to normal can someone tell me if I am overreacting

Maama needs help 😭

Hey girls, I really need some advice and would love to hear your opinions.

I have a very active 3-year-old toddler and a 7-month-old baby. My 7-month-old refuses purées and spoon-feeding completely. Every time I try to offer purées, mashed foods, or feed him with a spoon, he gets really frustrated, starts fussing and crying, and refuses to eat.

I’ve tried giving him his own spoon while I feed him with another one, and I’ve also tried distracting him with toys, but nothing seems to help. He just gets upset, and by the end of it, we’re both frustrated and there’s food everywhere.

When I offer finger foods or solids, he’s interested in touching them, squishing them, and making a mess with them, but he hardly puts any food into his mouth. Even when he does, he usually spits it back out. At the end of the day, it feels like he hasn’t actually eaten anything and is still relying entirely on milk.

I also don’t have a lot of extra time to prepare elaborate meals because I’m looking after both kids, so I’m trying to keep things as simple as possible.

Has anyone been through something similar? Is this normal for a 7-month-old? Do you have any tips or suggestions that might help him become more interested in actually eating rather than just playing with the food?

I feel quite sad and worried because it seems like he’s not really eating any solids at all. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share. ❤️

Husband criticizing everything i do

It feels like every day, every hour I'm doing something wrong. I have a 3yo and a 9mo and I do a lot of it on my own. He works a lot so I don't expect him to do much but he doesn't realize how much I do. And when I ask him to do something he gets an attitude. Like when our 3yo has to go potty I'm always the one that has to go with her. And I don't even have to do anything, I just stand there, hand her tp, and make sure she wipes. But literally everytime I ask him to take her I get an attitude. Like it's the hardest job in the world. And on top of not getting help, I'm just a bad mom. Ive been in survival mode for forever, so I get frustrated easily. I'm trying to be better about it but I'm just exhausted mentally and physically... Everyday it's hes making comments about how I shouldn't be doing this or I should be doing that. 3yo hasn't had a bath in a couple days, the kitchen is a mess, the laundry isn't done. Every time he criticized me i feel this ball of anger in my chest grow another inch. I feel like the worst mom in the world like i failed my children...

Holiday with 4 month old

Hi,
We will be going away in August with our baby who will be 4 months old at the time. I’m really unsure on what happens if I need to get a taxi abroad but won’t have a car seat as I’m not able to take it on the plane?
Also sterilising bottles, I have the mam ones and often do it in the microwave and sometimes with Milton tablets, are Milton tablets safe to use with tap water in Spain or should I play it safe and stock up on bottled water there??
Any other tips you be great!
Thanks!
