Here me out, both posted lots around US holidays, both posted asking for opinions and then absolutely didn't want to hear they were wrong af. Bith absolutely did not let the subject go. Just saying.
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...
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...
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...
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 ...
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...
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...
Going to break up with my SO very soon just trying to figure out when. It's Thanksgiving and we're already off to a bad start at 8:30am! He made me start crying by 9am. Blames me for so much and tells me I have to do everything, even if he isn't working. I'm so done. It hurts and I'm hurting all the time. If it wasn...
I don't know if I just have a really difficult baby, but it can't be like this for everyone surely???? I'm struggling to understand how we just get on with everything despite how hard daily life is? I had to stop myself from fully sobbing this afternoon. I just don't get a minute. I don't get time to myself, every e...
Cps came by and talked to us she got the evidence aswell as my son’s outcry. She said even if he denies or say it didn’t on his watch they have the photos aswell as the medical documentations were both the pediatrician and the ER states the bruises and swelling lip she also said she doesn’t see why the police woul...
My husband has got two days annual leave and doing things with his friend that's fine as I'm at work. However they've come back having been to Smyths and admitted buying a Lego F1 car that cost him £120 and he was all like it was such a good deal as it was £190. He then went to say I looked around for our LG for Xma...
My son's 2. I just had my daughter a couple weeks ago. And I'm debating pulling him out of nursery and spending as much time with the two of them. Attend children centres, soft play and still socialise. And then have him in nursery full-time from 3 and eventually focus on going back to work. I just feel like my birt...
So my son is sick with the flu. He’s currently sleeping in the recliner chair. Well dinner is going to be done in about an hour or so. My son’s dad is mad at me because I won’t go eat with him or his family. I seriously don’t want to leave him. Yes he’s old enough to cry and let me know but literally this is coming ...
I’m so pissed off. It’s Thanksgiving and I wanted a stress free day between cooking and cleaning, having to get baby ready, myself ready and the house ready to host 12 people all I wanted was a little bit of help. I called my bd to let him know he would have to watch her so I can focus on cooking. He sets her play m...
So tonight we went on out for a group meal to celebrate a friend's promotion. We was planning on taking little one (1 year) as I've never left him yet. But after parter dropping many hints over the last few months about us never spending time kid free, I thought it would be nice to maybe try it and go out just us wi...
