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 ...

My partner has never really helped out around the house like I wish he would without me asking or begging but now we have our one year old and now it’s almost never he does anything. He takes care of her but even that’s at a minimum. He will change her, feed her as in give her a bottle but now I have told him she ne...

It’s getting me down how little alone time I get with my partner. Our baby is so full on and needs someone entertaining him 24/7 so we don’t even get the chance to watch tv together. He takes most of the evening to settle to sleep and by the time he is asleep I’m just exhausted and go to sleep as well

How do you keep yourself happy ? My marriage was amazing so i thought before having a kid now that i have a child. I just don't feel loved by my husband :/

So I need some advice. My husband gets easily frustrated with our soon. He is only 3 months old. Our baby is more of a fussy baby and cries often. When I ask my husband to take over while I get some things done and our baby is crying he will say “stop crying” or “I don’t know how to help you” and will put him down t...

Yesterday was my baby shower and I have to admit I didn’t enjoy myself at all. My partner couldn’t come as we are long distance. I was also doing a joint gender reveal and I just felt and thought I was faking my emotions. My family where just constantly get on to me about this and that and then complain that I shoul...

My “best friend”, who I’ve known since elementary school, had a baby a few months before me and has been acting very weird since. She came late to my baby shower and left early all the while her husband stayed in the parking lot the WHOLE TIME. And it was just odd. After I had my baby, she invited herself over multi...

Hi ladies! So I want to know everyone’s opinions and I want to know if I’m wrong for saying something or feeling the way I do. So I have two children now, one is 2yrs and the other is 2 weeks old. My husband tends to go out with his older brother or his friends to events and stuff right. Well I always get upset at ...

I don’t know what to do. My partner went out today with the guys from 10am till 9/10pm drinking and left me at home alone all day with our son. This wouldn’t be a problem but I am sick with Covid and so is our son (14months old) and I’ve been struggling all week to care for our son properly and he’s been so ill him...

I don’t understand why some of these mothers choose to be complete assholes. All you’re hurting is your child!!!!!!! Bm won’t let us have my ss this weekend (yea she’s going against an order) because and I quote “your mother picked him up and dropped him off and he was taken by ur girlfriend to his sports game.” Y...

So I get off work and I go and clean the kitchen and clean up around the house and I go to rest. He come...

I recently lost my only local friend due to her judging my child and talking negatively about him/his behavior. Her comments made me doubt my abilities and my son’s behavior which is why I’m over explaining a bit. My son is 2.5 and an out going, adventurous only child. None of his babysitters or weekly caregivers ha...

I legit feel like I’m dying. Our baby is 2 months today and we have a 3 year old. We’ve been fighting ever since he dumped me 4 months pregnant. He was supposed to come over today and I noticed texts weren’t getting delivered. Tried my mom’s phones she’s blocked too. My friends text to him went through. I literally ...

My son just turned 4 months today and has been SO fussy in the last couple of weeks. He doesn’t like to sit in the swing, bouncer, his little chair, car seat, nothing. He only likes to be held but only wants to be walked around with. Contact naps are the only way he will nap. I feel like I get no time to myself beca...

My son is 11 months old. I was originally planning to put him in daycare at around 13 months. I have now decided after touring many daycares that I don’t want him to attend and would rather look after him myself. He will of course still be going to preschool at 3-4 years of age. We attend playgroups and swimming le...

In struggling to find anyone that has gone through a situation like this..my fiancé is very spiritual and holistic to the point where he doesn’t want me getting ultrasounds, going to a hospital, or even taking doctors/nurses advice. I am 11 weeks pregnant with our first baby girl and my mom has been a labor and deli...

I’m a SAHM w/ a 3 yr old son and he is amazing. I was expecting him to get into preschool this school year but fortunately he overqualified. He isn’t able to start school until next school year and I am struggling w/ keeping up with him. Between stressing about if I’m teaching him properly and keeping up with his en...

I feel like a shit person & parent for feeling this way towards my own kid who didn’t ask to be here . To give quick run down of the situation. My husband and I were done having kids after our 2 boys . After 5 years my husband kept begging and begging for another baby as he really wanted to try for a girl . I gave i...
