Im struggling
Im really struggling lately
I have a beautiful 1 year old little girl who brightens my day but I struggle everyday, I cant seem to keep on top of the house work, I worry about money as my partner has put himself into debt trying to get our house finished (its a fixer upper) we put so much energy and money into getting things finished for my daughters 1st birthday last month.
I dont work as i have bad issues and want to help financially but I dont know how to.
I rarely leave my house as I dont drive and I dont have anything close by, to get to places I'd have to get a bus which takes about 45-1 hour to get to anywhere 🙁
I have no friends, I thought i made some mummy friends but now i barely hesr from them except when I message first and I understand we all get busy with our babies and life. I just have no one to talk to, my partner works hard for us but when he comes home hes exhausted and most of the time just sits on his phone
I thought id be going to more baby groups and meeting up with other mums but there is literally nothing in my area, no coffee shops just houses and fields and i didnt think I would struggle this much.
We recently had to rehome our dog and that put a little bit of tension on our relationship as my partner misses our dog luckily we was able to rehome him to his mum so we still get to see him but my partner says almost everyday how he wants odin to come home but that cant happen.
I am getting to the point of I am not enjoying my life even though i have this beautiful little girl and want to start trying for another baby
I just dont know what to do anymore
Potty training
Something I've noticed when it comes to potty training, is that when HV's give you advice or anyone else you ask they tend to forget the fact that not everyone sends their kids to nursery. So a lot of the advice given is just "3 days training, nursery takes 5 days, rinse and repeat."
And then I'm just sat here feeling like an idiot and overwhelmed wondering if my son is ready but he doesn't want to go back to nappies so I'm stuck doing this where I'm cleaning poop from underwear, pee of the floor well also dealing with a 4-month-old by myself, cook, clean, and feeling little sympathy from my husband who (tbf to him) his dad's terminal.
Did anyone else feel like this and do they have any tips they like to share. As I noticed one is at home he feels more comfortable to pee on the floor but when we're out he's more inclined to tell me that he needs to pee
Sorry rant one just feel so tired and exhausted😅
Desperate
Please, please share all the potty training tips you have! My son understands to do wees on the potty and same for poo but like today, he was holding it. I would then sit him down, he would scream and cry at me, get off and wee on the floor then say "Look, wee wee on the floor."
He is 26 months and I feel like he knows what he's doing but I can't keep doing this. I'm exhausted and need help
