House is a mess, 1 year old has syrup in her hair from breakfast , I put her in the tub to wash her hair and she diarrhea in the tub 🙄 the older kids act like toddlers leaving mess everywhere , husband went to play basketball ( lucky him) and I’m just here trying to hold it together. Plus in 34 weeks pregnant !…
I've struggled with depression/anxiety for years on and off. My first baby was an absolute dream and we never had any issues in regards to extreme fussiness/crying.. but my 2nd baby who's now 13 weeks has been an absolute nightmare in all honesty, sometimes I actually regret having another and that makes me feel ter...
How can I get this paraprofessional off the bus my daughter ride I don’t feel safe after the incident that happened two weeks ago now she hit my kid with a phone on her knee and threatened to do it again I do not trust this lady for one second and don’t feel comfortable with her riding the bus with my kid….
He doesn't hit me, never has. He constantly wants to go thru my phone, assume who I'm talking to or what we're talking about. I can't have friends because he'll assume I'm cheating, or I'm not even allowed to hang with them. If we get into an argument and I say something the wrong way he will constantly repeat himse...
What to do about partner that will just not clean up after himself? I understand he works 6 days a week and that must be hard and draining! But I have a 15 month old and I’m 8 months pregnant cooking and cleaning daily, he won’t even wipe his shit stains off the toilet once he’s finished which for me is just absolut...
So I’ve been cheated on and he says he’s changed and he doesn’t seem to have anyone on his phone but I have a feeling he’s gotten sneakier and I just need to know because if he is then I’m gone. Anyone know how to find out I’m not tech savvy at all or anything so it’s quite easy to be sneaky around me
How did anyone ever manage with their first trimester with a baby? I’m feeling SO unwell. Literally struggle to change a nappy so baby is spending a lot of time in his play pen and in front of the TV which makes me feel so rubbish. We used to read books, practice walking, and limit screen time and I’m just devastate...
I thought having two kids would but hard but they’re not the issue. Apart from my 3 year old filling a sponge with water and squeezing it in his sisters face causing her to not breathe and having to flip her over and hit her back whilst in the bath last night effectively drowning her temporarily 👍🏼 they’re not…
Does anyone else's partner / Husband refuse to take your LO out anywhere unless you're present? Really gets on my nerves because I take out LO everywhere with me but he won't even go to the supermarket with them if I don't come with.
For context : My husband says things to me like ‘you are so clingy’ ‘your patter is so shit’ ‘you are so annoying’ etc. He has recently said I’ve become less bubbly and not like my old self at all. So I’ve really tried to make an effort and adopt my old positive, bubbly and care free self. Last night I went to hug...
So I’m in a bit of a rut lately and it’s making me depressed. My partner and I are arguing more and I think it’s because I’m spending way too much time with him at home at weekends. We can’t afford to go for days out at the moment but I really need time away from the day to day stuff. The problem is he offers t...
I’m finding that family members, who haven’t had children for 30+ years are telling me what I need to buy/do for baby. Which I appreciate but they are things I do not want to use with my baby, such as cot bumpers, jumparoos, putting baby to sleep on their front or side, putting car seat in front seat of car etc. W...
Just wondered if anyone else was mad enough to be having building works done throughout the third trimester?! We're in the process of having our loft converted and they've pushed back the completion date to the end of November, and baby is due mid December. The room that is going to be the nursery is currently a dum...
My husband’s male childless friend muscled his way into coming to visit us when our little boy was 2 weeks old. He had been complaining of not being able to seeing him since (blaming mostly me for keeping him away) till yesterday when we took baby to a friends social to meet everyone else. He said that when he met o...
I will do the cleaning cooking everything and he makes food for himself and goes upstairs and stays there for however many hours and watches movies whilst I’m downstairs running around. He will sometimes order food for himself and eat at home and didn’t ask anyone if they want any. We have 2 kids 2 and 7 yrs. he say...
My daughter is really becoming a challenge to parent and it's really stressful. I didn't know 3 year olds could be so rude and defiant. Her speech is very advanced and uses phrases in context such as when being asked to stop doing something yesterday she replied with "what are you going to do about it lady"....I qu...
Girls please help me out. My washing machine absolutely stinks we aren’t smokers but it smells like an ashtray in my washing machine and I’m absolutely sick of it. I’ve bleached it, used the washing machine cleaner tablets, used washing machine detergent and the smell is still there. I’m at the point of just go...

I'm a new mom with a 3 month old. Always wanted to be a mom my whole life and have worked with kids almost my whole life. I'm very cautious about everything I do with the baby as I'm well informed of safety etc. My husband has been getting drunk every single weekend since our baby has been born. He shows little in...
So, i posted a while ago about my sons father not taking responsibility over his actions and his mental health. Well, he kind of has kind of hasnt. He is moving away from the province to another province because my family (he is living in my grandparents' property) is apparently pushing over the edge for wanting him...
