Potty training

Who else is in the process of potty training!?

We are with our 2.5 year old. We decided to try Lora Jensen's 3 day potty training and am feeling so defeated after day 1. Any advice?

My girl is 2.8. She seems to have zero interest in the potty. I really don’t think she’s ready. She’s advanced in other areas, especially her speech. But this she just has no interest. I’m not worried about it. She’ll get it whenever she does. So many people think of potty training that it needs to happen by age 3, as if it’s a deadline. Many children don’t train til after 3, and that’s fine totally normal. Not all kids get it by 3. Don’t stress if your child isn’t there yet. Not worth it.

Well I tried my 3 yr old daughter about 2 weeks before she started nursery (at a school) as they need to be fully potty trained
On day 1 she had a few accidents so I just wrote that day off and would try again the next day ,next day came she just woke up and went straight on the potty herself and since then she’s fully potty trained now even dry at night too xx

Was she wrong for ignoring us?

We celebrated Eid as well as my baby’s first birthday on Friday at my in laws house. When we were there, some family friends of my husband also came. He calls them his uncle and he came with her daughter who is 27. We have met a handful of times, and they came to our wedding as well. My husband and I have 2 kids. When his uncle and daughter came, she greeted everyone accept myself and the kids. She ignored us the entire time and when she left she didn’t say bye to us either. She was also off with my husband as well. When I asked my husband he thinks she’s behaving like this because he used to visit them almost every day and since we got married and had kids he hasn’t. Our kids are 3 and 1, and the last 2 years has been so intense. Difficult pregnancy and postpartum plus a baby with colic. Is she wrong for being rude to us like this or is it my husband’s fault ? Also why is it always the woman that gets blamed, I almost feel like she’s blaming me for him not coming to visit…

Weaning

Anyone feeling a little lost with weaning, should I be offering my 7.5 month old 3 meals a day? I don’t know by what age how much they should be eating?😩

I think half my problem as well it maybe I don’t eat the most nutritious breakfast and lunch 😂 I never cooked lunches from scratch but I also have a Velcro baby so cooking in itself is a mission

MIL Rant

My husband and I are both working parents but I am our son’s primary parent. However, when we see or talk to my MIL and she asks questions about the baby, she only looks to my husband for answers. I love my husband and he is an excellent dad, but most of the time, he just looks at me to answer because he doesn’t know. My MIL will continue staring at my husband while I answer her question and almost act like I didn’t say anything until he repeats exactly what I just said.

She also likes to pretend she doesn’t hear me when I tell her to give me my son when he cries or when he needs changed. She’s pissed that in large group settings I prefer to hold my son and told my husband that I need to learn to share. Ma’am, he’s my baby. Not a toy.

I told my husband he should talk to her before I do because I won’t be as nice. He just keeps telling me that she means well.

i’m 3months postpartum.
my bump is on the way down but still there and feels hard.
i’m trying to be healthier & exercise..
but my husband keeps treating me!
coming home with mcdonald’s i didn’t ask for or sweet treats on shopping.

i’ve told him i didn’t ask for it and I’m trying to lose weight. it starts an argument and he tells me i’m ungrateful.. even though i never ask for mcdonald’s . he gets all grumpy and says i am ungrateful because i didn’t want him to bring home coffee or treats. i don’t ask for it

i feel like he doesn’t want me to look nice or start to have my life back again

*EDIT* he also cooks and serves my meals up..waayyyy too high! the bowl is literally over flowing. how can i tell him about portion control?
