Potty training🤷‍♀️

My little girl is 17 months old. We have been practicing sitting on the potty before bath time (have only have a dribble actually go in so far😂). She seems to be becoming very aware of when she is having a wee, even with a nappy on.

I am a first time mum and no idea with anything to do with potty training and my health visitor suggested starting at 18 months.

Any tricks and tips? Is she too young?

Arguing

Any other sahms really hitting head with partner mine truly believes because he provides he doesn’t have to do anything around the house including the babies stuff and if he does do it I have to ask twenty times and then he’ll ac as though he’s done something for me and rub it in my face. We’re arguing so much and today he said he’s the only reason the relationship is still going and even after we talk through an argument we argue ten mins later. I do find my delivery for my problems is wrong and that can cause arguments but in my defence I only get mad when it’s things I’ve asked for 100s of times. He makes sly comments so naturally too like his life was better before me he saved so much more money before me etc etc and he does this really annoying thing where when he’s asking me to pass him something he doesn’t even ask just points and gets frustrated when idk what he’s talking about all these stupid things just grate on me all day and then Icl I do blow a fuse sometimes but we just argue so much idk what to do.

Is it just me starting to look at family and friends different??

So I’m living in a domestic violence situation and I have a 9 month old son.ive been dealing with this since I returned from the hospital with him.my husband isn’t much help with the baby.most of my family aren’t help either.and I’m also just feeling feeling like nobody is taking anything but themselves seriously.everybody is only worried about themselves and there own personal life but I bet you if something bad where to happen to me or my baby during this time they will regret not taking our situation more seriously and prioritizing it over whatever there concerns are.when I needed childcare so I can work and save to move out they where no help.they won’t co-sign on a apartment or put themselves on a lease for me,despite me not ever asking them for anything this far and being responsible.like is your credit being good worth my life?? My brother complained because I was asking him for money.keep in mind he’s a truck driver and makes alot of money and I ALWAYS paid him back.mit took me longer to pay him back around this time because I wasn’t working at the time.i lost my job when I was 8 months pregnant but I still paid him back every time.before j on got pregnant I stayed with a job and always paid him back early and asked to borrow litterly every blue moon and it was never more then $50 for my phone bill.he said him and his wife will keep my son for a month so I can get out the situation I’m in but brought him back maybe a week later because his wife was nauseous (which it seems like she always has something going on with her).my mothers sisters are even no help and one of them even told me that I gotta quit my job if I couldn’t find a babysitter.she said this in defense of my big sister who don’t even have her kids because she’s a drunk and not a good parent and she does drugs.keep in mind our mother passed away when i was only 10 or 11 back in 2012.so even with them knowing this and knowing that she would’ve been all the support I needed they still choose to act like this.am I being dramatic????

Tonie or Yoto Player

I cant decide whether to get my 4 and 2.5yo a tonie or a yoto player. Ive been seeing mixed reviews on both. I saw that Yoto players use wifi and theres ads?? And some say Tonie can be glitchy. Any advice? Are there better options? My kids LOVE music and stories and Im wanting to get them something thats their own for Christmas.

•I typically have two of most baby things my apt is two story and I’m lazy when it comes to bringing stuff up and down so yeah two makes sense but it’ll help if we have same age babies and wanna just sit in and watch our show we both hate the same character on
•I am a pumping momma I don’t cry it out and I gentle parent but I yell sometimes lol
•I am okay with the real and raw of motherhood PP has hair falling out of your head but growing in other places okay that’s being a mom it’s new it’s hard and it’s OKAYYYYYYY you’re good enough and just human
•I have a coffee problem so yes I’d love it if you waited for me to make a coffee or we stop to grab one before we head out and yes I’d still like you if you are a matcha or green tea girly instead
•I’m going to either be 10 mins early or 30mins late no in between
•you don’t have to clean before I come over and if you wanna come over in yesterdays spit up shirt because you’re drowning but wanna be out of your house come it’s a safe space to be momma and human with me
•I like to talk but if we go days without convo pick it up text me again it’s okay

** I don’t know what else to type lol so that is all submit applications of friendship into the inbox lol let’s talk about something other than “baby do you need to potty? Wanna try before we leave? Where is your shoe? Why do you have your pants on backwards?” Oh and my current favorite because we are in a new phase “why are you naked?” Or “no you can not go outside like that crazy boy lol” because he’s four and that’s for some reason how potty training went clothes came off and pee went into the potty and yes it stresses me out and YES I want tips on how to fix it lol 😂

Husband is an alcoholic rant

I have a lot of nerve pain and GI issues. I woke my husband up last night at 2am cause I was in extreme pain and he was barely legal to drive. He's been trying to quit alcohol for 6 months so I was upset that he'd been drinking. I'm 8 months pregnant. We were at the ER for 6 hours durinf which he stayed with me, but laid down on the floor cause he was so tired and complained about me moaning in pain. Thankfully everything was alright, but I was still in pain when we got home. He fell asleep as soon as we got home and it took me a couple of hours before I could sleep. I ended up sleeping until 7pm. Apparently while I was asleep he went and bout alcohol. He just blew at 1.7% bac and I'm furious. I have no one to drive me if anything happens tonight. He has gone 3 weeks without alcohol recently. I'm thinking of not letting him leave rhe house without me for the next week so that he can't buy alcohol. This is going to be so rough on me while I'm at pregnant cause I'll have to take him to work everyday. I'm just so worried that I'll have an emergency and he'll be drunk. This is causing me so much stress.
