Adoption, Fostering & Surrogacy

My daughter is in her crib SOBBING and screaming for her dad right now. This is the worst part. I gave her all her requests and a picture of him but she’s still so sad.

This might sound very stupid lol.... but I need to change my bank details so it doesn't affect my UC payments as I'm in the red 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ My question is has anyone changed bank details, if so was it a smooth transition and did your next payment come through OK?

Now, I understand why my parents put myself and my siblings in extracurricular activities after school. When there's no school we attended some camp or did lots of church stuff. Now, I get why they did that. Then i hear my mum brag about how she and my dad raised me and my 4 younger brothers by themselves with no ...

I know everyone wants a village and will think I’m selfish, but it takes the right village to make things work. I have both sets of families live close to us and it has been more stressful than helpful. It’s reiterating broken boundaries, watching family do things “their” way, and seeing them help by taking the bab...

Anyone decided to have only 1 child for whatever reason? Are you completely fine and happy with your decision or ever feel pressure to have more/like you should be giving your child a sibling? I know it's the right decision for me but I sometimes wonder if it's not right for my child

I found out the gender for my baby and decided to tell the baby dad in hopes that he will want some sort of involvement. But he literally jus blocked me without saying a word. I jus dont understand how someone can be so heartless towards an innocent child thats theirs. Has anyone else been in a similiar situation?
