My partner and father of my 19 month old loves to travel. Okay- fine. But he’s literally gone on like 6 trips since our sons been born. Not for work- for pleasure. Mostly football games. The first time he left I was 3 months postpartum. The next time was at 6 months postpartum and our son was going through a growth ...
My husband always rough houses with me too hard for example picking me up and throwing me on to a couch, I always always tell him no I don’t like it and that he’s to hard and it hurts. He never says sorry and tells me I’m being a cry baby. Also if he gets mad at me in public and I try to hold his hand he will throw ...
Hey! How do you promote independent play time? My almost 7 month old baby always needs to have someone in view and recently has been giving his sitter trouble with not allowing her to set him down. I’m nervous she’s going to drop us from her care. I try to let him play by himself when he’s at home with me but I need...
So my husband's best friend is getting married 3 weeks before my due date (12/15) and my husband is supposed to be the best man. I've already had a discussion with the best friend's fiance about what they planned to do if we weren't able to make it and she told us that her brother was going to be a stand in groomsme...
I mostly just need to vent about my husband, but if anyone has any advice, I'd appreciate it cause I'm exhausted. Background: Currently, I'm 29 weeks pregnant with our second daughter and the default parent of our other daughter, who just turned a year old about a week ago. She weighs almost 24 lbs and can't walk y...
I’m getting beyond frustrated with my boyfriend . He has terrible ADHD, works his ass off and I understand. I really do. Atleast I try to be understanding. The last week he has said he was going to come stay over 7 times. He has not come over once. He has fallen asleep every time. And we have each other’s location s...
Growing up I had so many cousins my age that I was close with. I feel bad my daughter doesn’t have that let alone a sibling. My cousin came from Texas to visit us for a week. Her daughter is 1 1/2 & my daughter is 3. They got along so good! They constantly laughed together! Not one single fight the whole time. I lov...
Hey everyone. Just a general post really to find mom's in similar situations. I'm pregnant with my second girl (24 weeks) and I already have a 2 year old who seems to be developing the attitude of a 14 year old 🤣 I'm default parent as my partner runs two businesses which is really high pressure for him but I feel…
Please tell me how people are coping with doing this. My little boy will be going to his grandma's for the 1st time tomorrow in preparation for him going 1 day a week when Im back at work and then he will be with my parents at our house the other day (im returning to work 2 days a week) and I am so emotional about i...
I asked him for help and he’s trying to make me feel bad for not helping him pay bail on a mess he got himself into- speeding and no seatbelt plus he had a warrant from years ago. It just doesn’t make sense to me how he feels I owe him . I also sent his mom pics of my baby shower since it was last minute and she ask...
I am starting to feel an overwhelming amount of guilt for how long my son is it at daycare. I drop him off at 7:15am and pick him up at 5pm. A long 10 hour day without my baby and my baby without me. I have no village besides my younger sister and she helps pick him up earlier if she can.So many questions run throug...
Does anyone else find in-laws overwhelming? Can’t shake the feeling it’s an extra set of people you have to now sort of care for and want to be involved in everything ?
Hi all. I’ll try and make this sweet and to the point. My husband and I are faithful Christians. We’re not perfect of course, but we are very much so faithful. Many months ago, i found my husbands been watching “Korn”. I confronted him, and he apologizes and says i was just bored and came upon it..it was the firs...
I have sorted child maintenance for my 13 year old. His dad is supposed to pay 70 something a week, plus back pay from next month. He has now tried to sort it together and agree to less He also wiped the back pay with child maintenance. (I have tried all this time and only asked for 50 so he lost that chance lol)...
Hi everyone, So I’m dealing with severe mum guilt lately, to the point I’m crying an awful lot about this. My little girl is 11 weeks old and she is a super alert little baby. She wants to be awake pretty much all day, however she really hates a lot of the things I know I should be doing with her. She screams hyst...
We’ve just had baby no 2 and are now looking at all our options, after our first i went back 3 days a week and was very lucky with family with child care, this time round we aren’t as lucky, working with 2 under 2 and putting two children in two child care seems completely unrealistic! Personal question but Stay a...
Went to visit some family my cousins has a 4(5 in November ) year old boy as well While he went to work I would hang out with her because we both have kids my LO is 2. Well she likes to comment how my son is aggressive and how he’s like idk how to translate this but like just mean I guess to her son. Which is not tr...
Yesterday was a really hard day. While my boyfriend was getting our baby ready to eat. She fell from about 4 feet. Literally the scariest moment of my life! when she fell he literally ran out the front door. I screamed and grabbed my daughter no hesitation. By the grace of God, she is totally fine barely even has a ...
Do I need to worry? Or get out more?! Socialise more? No idea
