Potty training

My toddler has been potty training for 2 weeks and doing really well with the wees (has a few accidents here and there). When it comes to pooing, she will only do it in her nappy. She holds it in and sometimes waits until after bath where she will have a nappy for bedtime (day naps also).
Does anyone have any suggestions please? I’ve tried the sticker chart, rewards but doesn’t seem to work.

does she do anything in particular when she’s about to poo? the min u catch her doing that grab her and put her on the potty! my son would go hide in a corner , under table etc, the min i saw him doing that i would run him to the toilet. over time he got confident in pooing in toilet, now he literally runs himself to the toilet (we have the ones with stepper)…maybe try getting the toilet seat with stepper, and model you going to the toilet, over time she will learn to go there…it’s only been 2 weeks so give yourself a break xx

I need advice!!

So, my boyfriend and I have a son together.and usually he doesn’t mind buying him things he needs like diapers and wipes etc…but recently he won’t get him anything that he needs. So when my son runs out we end up in an argument and he gets upset that he has to leave at 3 in the morning to get whatever it is my son needs when I told him days before he was almost out. I would get them myself but he doesn’t let me work because “he wants to take care of his family”. What should I do or say?

Nursery

How long did it take to settle your child into nursery? My boy turned 2 end of June and started nursery last Wednesday. He was very tearful the first day but played a little bit, day 2 was the same day 3 he came in with no tears. Monday-Wednesday he was absolutely fine went off on his own. Today was the first day they got me to leave the room and wait in the staff room. I was in there for about 15 minutes until they came and got me to say he was really upset. When I went inside he was screaming so they said I could take him home. Did they do this with your children as I kind of thought but its just teaching him if he screams he will go home sorta thing. Hopefully he gets a bit used to it

Mom guilt hitting hard tonight

My son is teething really bad right now, both sets of canines (top and bottom). We have been redirecting him to chews but sometimes he gets overstimulated and bites. I’ve been so sick and exhausted lately and today he tried to bite me so I pushed him away slightly and gave him a tap on the back to get his attention that was a little harder than I intended it to be. He burst into tears and just stared at me so heartbroken. I think it scared him.

Later at bath time, he’s all cuddly, wants to splash and play like always. Wanted to be rocked and held to sleep. He is the sweetest little boy and I was so overcome with guilt I burst into tears. It took forever for me to calm down even though my husband was reassuring me that everything was okay.

I feel like such an asshole. I grew up in a very abusive household and I always promised myself I would never lose my temper with my son. I hate that my mind keeps trying to rationalize it with “I’ve been so tired and so sick”, and at the same time trying to make it into a bigger deal than it is. Having postpartum anxiety makes this so much worse and I just keep ruminating on it.
