My fiancé wants to send my baby to one of our parents to be watched during a night out with friends, but I am personally not ready to do that since she has just turned three months. I understand where he’s coming from because we haven’t had a day or a night to ourselves, but in my opinion that is what comes with be...
I’m a sahm and recently separated from my partner. Now that we’re no longer together, this weekend was the first time he’s had the kids and I had some alone time. At first I was super nervous, sad to leave them and questioned what I was going to do. I’m not used to doing much outside of mothering my children and it ...
So I'm only 9 weeks pregnant but I'm struggling to do anything other than sit and sleep. My husband has taken the lead with our 4 yo. But because I'm struggling to do anything I feel like it's putting such a strain on us. When I say I feel guilty because hes taking more on he just says its fine just look after yours...
Does it make me a terrible Christian if I don't want to go to church one Sunday because my toddler is behaving terribly (he bit me this morning and kicked his little brother twice), we are attempting to potty train the misbehaving toddler as well, and it isn't going great, and the infant (9 months) got shots last we...
Before I had my LO I was very fit, lots of running and gym. Now I have my toddler and I work 4 long days a week and the day I have off I'm with him and do foodshopping, housework etc. My husband is a triathlete so he does lots of exercise and training (competes for GB amateur level). The only time I can realisticall...
This is getting to me so badly and really affecting my mental health 😞 I'm anxious all the time, and the stress is starting to affect my body (eg, my eye now twitches) I receive benefits due to my physical limitations which I try really hard to spread as far as I can to cover monthly expenses...my partner works…
My husband and I almost got a divorce because he yelled at me and called me names infront of my mum and dad while I was holding our 6 month old baby His mum called me as apparently he had rocked up to her house banging on the door and being all angry and I told her what happened and my mum also said “he called my ...
Hey guys! I suppose I’m writing this as a sounding board or really just so see if I’m only one. So I’ve suffered a lot with post partum resentment toward my partner now I’m definitely not nearly as bad as I was but in the last year he’s started to suffer from migraines ( we are currently getting medical help to see...
So how I do tell my MiL to not kiss my son on the mouth. I’ve literally just walked out of the bathroom and just noticed kisses on the lips when she noticed me then kissed him on the cheek. (I know I’ve missed the opportunity to say I’m not comfortable with that) but I feel really awkward as we live with them curren...
Is it a thing to hate your husband after having kids for how useless they are? He won’t change diapers or feed the baby unless family is over watching him which is rare. If so, does it get better with time?
I went into labor at 11pm so I told my partner to lay on the hospital couch and get some rest while my contractions come.. Around 12:30am he was talking to me while i was in pain so i shushed him 🤫 cuz I couldn’t talk and needed him to be quiet. So he decided to go to sleep. Throughout the whole labor I was…
Hi all, I'm solo parenting from yesterday up to Wednesday and yesterday something happened that I can't help to feel guilty or think how could have I done better at all? My baby was v fussy when I served him breakfast and didn't even want a bit of my bread (which is super unusual as this seems to be kryptonite to hi...
So me and my babys dad aren't together but he's been living with us to help out, he leaves for work every day at around 6am and gets home around 4:30pm - when he comes home he doesn't help out etc and then at the weekends he stays in bed till around 3pm and then gets up moans he's hungry and again doesn't help out. ...
Every single time 🙃 £10 an HOUR my fiancé pays his mum to watch her own grandchild for a few hours so we can spend some time together. We are never out more than 3/4 hours maybe once a month or two months. Bear in mind, I always pay for her taxi home (£10-15) because I want her to get home safely. I don’t expect…
I can never do anything right in his eyes. I'm always wrong. He can always do everything better. He's horrible to me.most of the time. Putting me down, calling me a bad mum for leaving the tv on whilst LO was eating, I can never do.anything right. All he does is dry hump me when I'm doing chores, and comments when y...
I've been a stay at home mom for 2 years now and I'm starting a job soon and I am sending my 2 year old to daycare and my heart is just breaking. I can't stop crying. I know he will be safe, but all I keep thinking about is him feeling like we abandoned him and how he will be calling out my name. Is anyone else goin...
My babies father and I have been together for 11 years and are not married. He works 8-12hrs a day and comes home and hardly sees his daughter some days.. I’m so mad because he agreed even though he would be working he would help take care of the baby through the night and he keeps pointing the finger at me because ...
My baby boy arrived at 3:02am yesterday and it's been drama ever since. He ended up in the NICU and I just can't stop crying over it. I want my baby but I cannot see or hold him because I have to be monitored as well as I had hypertension, diabetes and preeclampsia. They literally will not let me do anything. They d...
My mother in laws hole personality has changed towards me and it’s very strange I’ve done nothing wrong at all! We used to speak everyday now we don’t at all! She came for tea a few nights ago and I just felt so awkward! Has anyone else’s MIL done this?
Seems like the schools here in Vegas just don’t care much because this is the second year second school my now 1st grade daughter is involved with a inappropriate situation where a boy is either touching my daughters private or showing her his private and having her show her private! What am I suppose to do I can’t ...
