Been with my husband since I was 15 (17 years) Every job he gets we fight over him cheating. He always acts weird, hides messages and is currently doing this now at his current job. He takes an absolute fit by calling me names and being aggressive if I say anything or call him out. What should I do? This happens at ...

Two weeks ago my husband went out for beers with coworkers because it was his last day. He said a couple hours when he left at 2 and wasn’t home until almost 9 leaving me to spontaneously do dinner and bedtime for all three kids alone. I tried to let it slide because he never does that. Tonight he said he was goin...

Hi mummas We have moved to Uk 3 n half yrs back. My LG is 3 yrs old and going to nursery since she is 1 n half yrs old. One of her friend is always calling her - you are black and you are different. My LG doesn’t look like calling her black tbh but she’s Asian (can accept she looks little brown but she’s a bit fair...

What time would you expect your partner to be home if he was going out for a works dinner that started at 6:48pm ? And would you expect him to text you to keep you updated as well as when he may be home ? So my other half had Table booked for 6:48pm and he’s still not home the meal is about 10-15 mins down road...

My husband and I of 7 years recently divorced because he had a baby with another woman! He wants nothing to do with our 2 children or the baby I’m currently pregnant with! He said he doesn’t want to know when the baby is born or gender, nothing! He moved out last month, so he don’t live close anymore… I’m so stuck w...

My stepdad has seen my baby a total of 3x. He got offended cus I said I want to hold off on him using the grandfather title when I was pregnant since he kept mentioning it so much .so he distanced himself for months. Now he’s came around and I feel like he’s gone to the other extreme again. The first time when he sa...

This morning I told my bf that I’ll be looking at cars after I get off work and I asked if he could watch our son while I go do that. And he said yes. Well I haven’t heard from him all day. I thought he was asleep (he works nights and usually sleeps during the day). I come home and he was mad at me for being out for...

How do I hide self harm from my husband until I'm ready to tell him? He's used to just seeing me naked all the time so it's gonna be obvious. I just need to hide it for a while until I get the balls

I just need to rant. I am 5 weeks pp with my first baby and I am so sick of my bf not helping. He helped at first but now he is back to his usual video games all day. I EBF so that is on me which I have no problem with but he only changes maybe one diaper a week and doesn’t help in any other way. He lets our dog out...

i feel like a terrible mom right now. i turned around to grab my 17 month old his food and next thing is he fell and hit himself on the table and he cut his eye and i’m not sure what to do

Myself and my partner both work full time with an 19 month old l, despite raising constant concerns he thinks it’s acceptable to go to the pub until 7pm every night (weekend times vary) im not entirely sure what time he gets in there between 3.30 and 4? it’s caused so many arguments! As I am left doing everything! A...

Money wasn't an issue until we had children. We planned the first child, one horny night led to baby #2. We both worked, paid bills, repeat. There was no extra for vacation or events but we had necessities. After the first, I've completed depleted my savings, ira, and even called my bank to pick up my car that we ...

Being the default parent is exhausting and freaking sucks🙁 Everything is always just put on me and I’m expected to do and take care of everything. I need a break but we have no money and when we do have money I feel like there’s more important stuff for it to be spent on🙃

Hi all!! My toddler is 14 months old and refuses almost everything with texture. He would much rather have pureed food still. I feel like I am at a loss as we offer him everything we eat every meal (which is a wide variety). Any tips, suggestions would be appreciated!! I don’t know if this is a cause for concern?? 🙁

I’ve got my June baby and also my second baby who is nearly 12 weeks old. I’m finding it really hard when my husband is at work in terms of feeling overwhelmed, especially when he’s on nights like tonight. They’ve both been screaming at the same time and I feel like my heads gonna explode. My toddler is really testi...

Have your lil one started teething yet ? My boy drools a lot but cant see anything

Hi mamas! I've been having a hard time doing anything but to take care of the baby. My baby is 3 months now and feeds (breastfeed) every 2-3 hours. Initially I had some family/friends helping with cooking/ordering food. Now I find myself ordering Uber almost every day because I'm super hungry and don't have time to...

How does nursery work? Cost wise? I have no idea where to start. For 25 hours.

Here we go another “where did my friends go” post. One of my oldest and closest friends has rescheduled a meet up as of today for a fourth time. 1-okay 2- damn adult life 3- are you actually trying to meet up? I gave 3 different dates and a selection of restaurants. Answered in time for last offered date and didn’...

My 3 year old knows we’re due to have another baby, and he’s having a baby brother. It’s not something we talk about 24/7, when he mentions it we’ll engage in conversation but it’s not spoken about constantly as I’ve never wanted him to feel any other way just because I’m pregnant. Tonight he has said “why have yo...
