Would i be a bad mom if I let my baby daddy have primary custody?

I have started a new business which requires me to be on the road alot. Since its the summer its easier since my daughter goes to her dad. When school starts I am nervous on how I would actually balance working and being a mom. My daughter and her father relationship is very rocky and I have tried to mend it but it is what it is. Her father lives with his parents but my daughter has her own room and they just bought her a puppy. I don't want her to feel like i abandoned her for my work or hate me for leaving her with them. She constantly ask when she is coming home every time she is with them. I know it will be diffucult if she has to be there full time. I'm really want our lives to get better...

Government funded nursery hours

Can someone help explain government funded nursery hours to me?

I know you’re entitled to 30 free hours from when the child turns 9 months, but can apply from 23 weeks. I’ve just tried to apply as mine are 23 weeks, but due to me not being due back at work until February i’m not allowed to apply just yet?

Why does it say from 23 weeks then if i’m not allowed yet?

Looking for friends !

Hi everyone I’m a ftm to a 7 month old little boy, I’m married and my husband is a truck driver so it gets kind of lonely and my phone stays dry . I’m looking for someone who is okay with tmi, down to rant, okay with texting randomly through the day when we both have free time and just being real and open . I’m tired of feeling lonely due to having no one texting me through the day other than my husband when he has a little while to talk and I’d love to make some more friends ! I’m trying to make press on nails and sell them as a hobby / make a little cash for myself to break up this never ending cycle of the same thing everyday! I’m down for any conversation honestly !!

Mum friends

Why do other mums give up on friendships and making the effort? I have a 14 month old and throughout my maternity leave I was often going to different groups to get us both out and in doing so I made a small handful of friends with similar aged babies. Had a good few months where we’d meet up fairly often and could always message when needed. 2 of these said friends disappeared with no word at the start of the year the rest I have not seen since before my babies birthday. I seem to always have to be the one to make the effort or make the suggestion of meeting which even then it takes weeks to organise. Was meant to be seeing someone today whose now made a pathetic excuse and cancelled. I don’t understand how there are mums who have a regular and consistent group of friends? It makes such a huge difference seeing other people and I’d love for my lo to have other babies to hang out with. Am I the only one or am I doing something wrong?!

Need advice

My baby is nearly 10 months old now and I’ve been having issues with my husband since then. I want to split up but he is refusing to giving me the divorce cause apparently I can’t afford the mortgage by myself and loves me. Plus I’m in the end of my maternity leave leave and I’m not sure how I will be back and taking care of my baby. So I feel like I’m such a bad place with no solution for myself.

Any advice would be much appreciated
