Nursery 14 months

Does anyone else’s toddler go to nursery? I’m starting mine in 2 weeks not for any reason in particular I just think it would be good for him while I’m at work for 2 days to instead of being with my mom for those 2 days being out and in an environment where they are doing more. However, it’s giving me such anxiety I’m crying already. Is he still too young or is this a good age? I know people having LO’s younger than mine that go I’m not silly but I’m starting to just feel guilty for sending him.

Funded hours

Does anyone know the actual eligibility for 30 hours funded childcare in UK?
I’ve read it’s if you earn 100k or less a year but I know some people who aren’t eligible for it when they earn 30k or so
Super confusing
Any advice or information will be appreciated! 🙏🏻

Is this normal for a caring loving partner

Today, I came home around 10pm and found our daughter still awake, so I asked my boyfriend what had happened and whether she’d had her milk. He said he’d been busy and had given her snacks instead. When she asked for a banana, I said no because it was bedtime, but he still handed her the banana while it was still in its peel. I asked why he gave it to her, and he told me to stop questioning him. I explained that I was trying to understand and make sure we were on the same page. I then agreed to put our daughter to bed because I thought he had something he needed to do, but he was actually just sitting on his phone. I asked him to put her to bed so I could cook, ice a cake and prepare for my early start, I need to be up and out by 6am tomorrow morning, but he refused because we’d already agreed that I would do it. I asked again because I needed the help, but he still refused, so I put her to bed myself. Overall, I feel like whenever I ask questions or seek clarity, he feels questioned and becomes defensive, which leaves me feeling dismissed and frustrated.

Potty training.. failing

I feel like a bad mother.. my daughter is 4 just started junior kindergarten and hasn’t fully potty trained yet. Our Family is low income so we don’t have lot of finances to work with. I just feel like I failed my daughter by not having her fully ready for it. I don’t have a lot to worked with for clothes until a cheque comes in. I can’t be the only one feeling so bad when others tell me I shouldn’t.

Does anyone have ideas how to help it go better or at least done sooner? Should I feel this bad over something out of our control?

Just caught my partner cheating

I found just over a hundred pictures of naked women and porn videos on my partner of 3 years phone tonight. I am absolutely heart broken.

What makes it worst it’s on an escort site and he’s watching live videos saying he would love to meet etc. I feel violently sick. He has gone out of way to search for these individuals on fb,twitter and Instagram which to me is way worse than just watching Porn and closing a video.

I knew something was up he has ben acting so strange with me for months and saying no to sex etc.

Our little one is 8 months old and I’ve given up everything for this life now it’s all gone to shit. Apart from my baby of course.

I just can’t believe it, I never thought in a million years he would be that type of person. The first screenshot was from when I was 15 weeks pregnant till last week.

He’s cried, said sorry, saying it’s a porn addiction which I know is real for some but going out of way to message them and search them is next level to me.

I hate him and feel like I can’t forgive this but I also don’t want a broken family
