1st birthday present ideas

Hi ladies,

My youngest is turning 1 soon and I have no idea what to get him as a present/s. Most of the things I can think of we’ve already got because his older brother got them 😅 I know he doesn’t need a present and he won’t know/understand but I’d really like to get him something (even just a few little bits) as I love gift giving and we always did presents for his big brother.

Any ideas/recommendations gratefully received! We’ve got most of the big things like a trike, play kitchen, water table, ride ons, pikler triangle, slide etc.

Lying parent

I have a 12 week old baby we live at my mums until we get housed but my mum smokes and hardly washes her hands so god knows what else shes touched.. she will then go into my room to see baby and touch his hands and when I ask if shes washed her hands she says yes but I know she hasnt so I then have to wash baby's hands but today he put his hands in his mouth before I washed them! She just wont listen to me and when I have a go she storms off like im the bad guy and tries to make me feel guilty.. will baby be okay do you think? He didn't suck on hands but just put them to his mouth

Is it normal for your husband/partner/other half to not know baby's routine because they aren't the primary carer?

Like when I go out he always asks me what time dinner should and/or bedtime should be. I get he is working most of the time but he does do dinner and bedtime routine three days a week and has done since our baby was born so I feel like he should know by now.

Marriage problems

Does anyone else feel like they are married just not to not make their child come from a broken home ?
My Husband and I used to be amazing and have never had any issues between our selves at all other than ones caused by his family.
They are just the most toxic and entitled. They are chipping away so hard at my marriage to the point where I am
Holding for our baby.
I want to leave behind anything to do with this family and extended family of his and him. But we have a baby together.
Wtf do I do ?? I can’t take this anymore.
I have decided to cut all ties with every single family member of his and he’s fine with that but it’s just being here 100 miles from my own family and friends.
Just completely isolated

Popcorn

At what age is it no longer a choking hazard and safe to give?

Protein yogurt

Okay so I accidentally bought my 9 month old a protein yoghurt (wasn't advertised as a protein yogurt) can he still eat it?
He can't have cows milk, hence the alpro.

SAHM of 7 cannot compete with husbands co worker

Sahm of 7 who homeschools and has a husband who is a manager and works 50 hours a week. Thought I was doing pretty good until my husband got drunk and told me that he could be with top models that do way more (cleaning) for $20 then I do all day. He’s talking about his co workers who are young and have less children and who obviously work. I told him that I was trying and getting better at cleaning but not having a break was taking a toll on me. He continued to tell me how he was to ignore this honest hard working women while I who doesn’t deserve his loyalty can’t clean as well. I cried. I cannot compete. I’ve had hard pregnancies and this damn cooper iud is hard to deal with symptomatically. What should I do? Is this cheating? He’s with these women more than me.
