Maths help for my child on the sen register at school

My child is 8 years old and currently going into year 4 at school, she is on the sen register for extra support outside of the classroom at school and struggles a lot with her maths, especially number recognition, I’m doing flash cards with her at home, and getting her to write them down after we’ve done them but is there anything else I can do or anything anyone can recommend that may help her from home?

My life with a baby vs my husband’s life

I was thinking today about how different my life is now that I have a baby compared to my husbands life. My husband went to work today and I spent the entire day on my own looking after our 11 week old baby, he has been out this evening at a work dinner and drinks meaning I’ve also been on my own for whole evening. I will be the one getting up throughout the night tonight to do feeds and changes meanwhile he will just sleep through them all or if he does wake he will just roll over and go back to sleep then tomorrow he will go back to work and i’ll do it all again. Does anyone else feel like this? Does anyone else get very frustrated? I am so appreciative that he works full time so I can stay home and I know work comes with its own pressures but sometimes it feels so hard and tiring and draining. I feel like when he offers to look after her so I can do something simple like shower he almost feels like he’s doing such a good thing and being an amazing and supportive husband whereas to me it’s extremely basic and I feel like what I do and the extreme way my life has changed is not fully appreciated…

Some guidance please 🥲

I’m a first time mom who really doesn’t have a village for support. I live far from family and friends. I stay home with my almost 2 year. The only time I’m ever away from her is when my husband stays with her.

Ive been thinking about finding a babysitter for the sake of our marriage. We need to have some time together without her. I’m just sooo scared to trust someone with my baby.

I came across a college student online who has availability. I’m going to set up a phone call to get the feel of her. How should I go about this? What questions should I ask them?

Thank you!

Marriage

Ladies, would you be comfortable with your husband being around his brother who’s also married but openly cheating on his wife and having a girlfriend? And even being on FaceTime calls with the brother and the girlfriend? I’m never around when he talks to the brother and girlfriend on the phone.

partners

has anyone else found their partners don’t seem to be interested in the baby? i feel as though i am having to force my partner to spend time with his baby. i almost feel like he wants to be thanked for changing her nappy etc. we seem to be arguing almost constantly and i just don’t know what to do

Feel Like I Can’t Win With Husband

Both of us work full-time jobs, thankfully we both leave for work first thing in the morning and have his parents to watch the baby. By the time I get off work it’s 5, then he goes and cooks while I get baby time since he usually manages to get out early. After that, we eat and watch a tv series, followed by him showering then me later. Then there’s chores and other things I need to get done around the house or just adult-wise in general.

With all that said, he’s been getting upset with me this week that I’m constantly on the go, trying to complete tasks. He wants more intimacy (not even sex necessarily) and it makes me feel like I’m being a shitty wife and mom not pouring as much time directly into him and the baby. But if I stop doing all the chores, it overwhelms me and everything feels chaotic. I don’t know how to win here and it’s kinda breaking my heart…

How much is your baby actually eating?

Hi all, my little one is 7 and half months and I am not sure he is eating enough solids (milk intake didnt change from when he was a baby - breastfed)
In morning for brekfast I gave him kiwi and he brings it to mouth and eats it but the amount that he actually swallows is really tiny as he squeezes everything with his hands and goes to the bib.
Then with oatmeal, I spoon feed him and he just eats couple of spoonfuls but it goes everywhere so again the amount he swallows is so little.
Not sure what to do
