what is everyone doing to keep your 6/7 week old occupied during wake windows? my little girl just fusses and cries till she's either fed or she just falls back to sleep, we talk to her and she's started smiling but gets very fussy if she's not talked too and she doesn't like being put in her swing she just shouts a...
Why are husbands always domestic gods? We have a local shop, where we go most days to get our food stuffs. I went there since baby was little, with her in the carrier, to get a few days worth of food to cook meals etc. She is now 15 months old, and I still go. Husband went a few times when he was unemployed in Au...
My husband and I have talked at lengths about the rule that no one kisses the baby on the face, hands or feet until he is a bit older. I set expectations with my family and they have been following it well. The other day, his parents came over and both of them kissed the baby. I didn’t make a scene (it was the top o...
We live together but we broke up and expecting baby in two weeks, so we decided to keep living together so he can help me with baby, since we don’t have family here… he is coming usually on weekends only, he is mostly on the road because of his work so I am fine during the week. He calls me from time to time to ask ...
Hi ladies , The father to my unborn works full time but doesn’t really help me financially, mentally etc and it’s me that pays for everything and goes to the scans appointments mostly alone. He’s a covert narcissist and the last time we spoke he made threats to me because things didn’t go his way so I blocked him...
Hello, I accidently gave my 10 month old a slice of honey roasted ham. I didn't realise it was honey roasted. He maybe had 1 slice max, probs not even a slice. What do I do? I'm panicking a bit!

To me salt meant like adding more salt into the product we also have home made meals with fresh veg etc ...
I feel like this is a form of grooming our children. With my knowledge of sex trafficking this just freaks me the fuck out. This behavior shouldn’t be encouraged or normalized. It just feels more like an invitation to have ourselves as women to be disrespected by disgusting creeps. This will be the last time I ever ...
Please tell me honestly if I’m right to be annoyed or not. Our LO had his 16 week jabs and I checked in with my husband around 11am he asked how it went etc. He then has a break between 3:30-5pm but didn’t bother calling to see how little one was doing and whether he was ok. When I said I would’ve expected him to...
Not weaning but has any one let their little one have a lick of something to see how they like the taste? 😅🤣
Hi all, Does anyone have the number I need to call to set up childcare if longer than 31days? Really struggling to set this all up! Thank you!
Hello, I'm really struggling with this new phase of being a stay at home mum with my husband. He works as a dentist and sleeps in the spare room so his nights are uninterrupted. I went through a sleep regression (baby waking up every hour) on my own. We are currently not speaking as I said I feel that he is not doin...
