Potty training

I need any and all advice for potty training for my 4 year old. She absolutely refuses to consistently go on the potty. She will use it a few times throughout the week, she will go to the br on her own flush, wash hands, the whole nine yards, but it has to be by her own accord. If I ask her to try or try to encourage it she will not sit on it or try. I've tried absolutely everything I can think of and just have been unsuccessful. I do believe she is ready just being stubborn.
please no judgement just looking for any advice anyone may have

Thoughts please?

So my boyfriend has told me today that his dad said he wants a "boys day out" meaning him, baby dad, and our 6 month old.
Now I wouldn't have a problem with it if he'd made more of an effort to see him, but he doesn't bother. He lives 10 minutes away and has seen his grandson 5 times since he's been born. 3 of those times we went to him. We keep inviting him round but he's always too busy. Most of the time when he tries to hold baby he cries so after trying to help soothe him from the sidelines for a couple of minutes I take him back.
I have only been away from my baby twice and he's been with his dad. Once was for a haircut and I was gone 2 hours and another for a few hours out with a girlfriend. Both times I was less than 15 minutes from home. Being away from him gives me anxiety, and FIL wants to take him to a zoo over an hour away. Should I suck it up and allow it?

I don’t think I want any more children

It really breaks my heart as I wanted 3 children but motherhood was not what I thought it would be.
My son is nearly 10 months old and he cries, all day, every day. He doesn’t do anything, babble, crawl, transition to sitting, or copy toys.
He is exhausting, I love the absolute bones off him and it his not his fault at all but he has made me not want any more children, I feel like I’m constantly drained, upset and worrying. I don’t even think I remember the last time I smiled. I see other mums with babies the same age and they are laughing, smiling, starting to crawl or even pull themselves to cruise and he just lays there, miserable, every single day. He was never the happiest newborn, but he’s getting worse with time and I dread having to go through this again with another child. It makes me really upset as maybe the next one will have an easier time being a baby, but I don’t know if I can risk it 😭💔

Toddler eating

If your toddler doesn’t eat enough in the day, do they wake up in the night hungry?

What do you do whilst getting ready?

This may sound like a selfish question but my little one has just started crawling, sitting herself up and pulling to stand all in 24hrs, she’d previously play in her next2me while I got myself ready and packed her bag ready for the day but that’s not safe anymore - I’m now at a loss of where she will be safe while I get stuff ready to go out!

How are you entertaining your baby during the day?

I feel like I'm always trying to find ways to stimulate my boy and I'm interested to see what others are doing with their babies.

We go to classes/groups three times a week, and the days we don't have anything going on, I'm trying to find ways to engage and entertain him.

He gets bored of his toys quite quickly or just mouths them at the moment.

We do lots of singing, going for walks with the dog, tummy time, reading books. But sometimes I need an activity where I can watch him in his high chair whilst I do things like cook/wash up etc.

Is there a sensory activity that you've done which you've found particularly successful?
