I just had the most emotionless, depressing sex ever with my husband. I feel so sad having sex with him and I am not able to control my sadness. He didn’t notice I was crying during the sex because the room was dark. I just came to the bathroom, sat on the floor sobbing softly and typing this. I am not so sure why I...

For the moms who are raising or have raised pre teens when does the drama ever start. It just seems like every other day there is another fight, my daughter crying one girl going out of her way to be mean.

My little girl is 17 months old. I feel like I can't catch a break. I'm a sahm and 22 weeks pregnant. The tantrums are constant and inconsolable.

Ever since I found out I was pregnant I knew I didn’t want my in laws in the hospital for my delivery not the next day.

I was planning on breastfeeding but since I had a c-section my ...

It’s sad. I always say I need time to myself. But the moment I get a few hours of myself I can’t help but sit here and cry my eyes out. I am so use to spending every minute with my daughter I don’t even know what to do once she’s not around. I can’t help but think oh they aren’t going to do what I do when I watch he...

This is a really sensitive subject for me. I’m struggling with PPD and already feel like my baby deserves better than me. Yesterday my baby fell off a footstool in our living room, I haven’t stopped crying about it. Literally turned my back for a second. One day he wasn’t moving then it seems over night he’s on the ...

My 21 month old will scream, screech and cry the whole time I cook. I do home cooked meals and will usually only need an hour to make whatever we eat, and the whole hour my little one is screaming screeching and crying.
