Life

I’m going through a lot lately. I’ve been dealing with infertility issues for the last two years. 7 losses and 2 ectopics. Finally in an ivf clinic doing millions of tests to see what could be causing this. My partner who I’ve been with for 10+ years was supportive - until he wasn’t.

I have found so far I have APS, waiting on the screens for lupus. It’s making sense now.

I’ve always been in pain and sick. He knows this about me, but I get hounded about it from time to time. Lately, it seems all we do is fight. I ask for him to be more affectionate, more caring and understanding. He tells me I’m lazy, fat and unattractive. He calls me names. He screams. And I’m so tired.

I feel like I’ve waisted my youth and fertility on a man who doesn’t even like me most days. It’s really hard to come to this conclusion. I’m really sad. I’m angry. My heart is broken.

I’ve been a sty at home mom and I don’t have much to my name. He’s threatening to leave me all the time and that he’ll take everything and our two kids. I’m afraid it will happen. I’ve been searching for jobs every day and applying and I’ve had a few interviews but nothing solid has worked out. I feel defeated, I hate myself and if I didn’t have my kids, I would have killed myself by now. I literally fantasize about dying it’s so sad but I just can’t see myself living another 40-60 years like this. I have no friends and no family. There’s no one in my corner and I’m just so far in a hole that I can’t even get myself out of. I feel like the biggest fucking loser. I feel like I wasted my life. I feel so incredibly alone. I wish I was dead.

I’m so sorry you’re going through all this, just know you are soo valuable, important and beautiful. Its hard when life throws a 100 things your way but i promise you will see it through.

I had a perfect first pregnancy and a beautiful daughter but ever since my loss i can always feel that dark cloud above my head and its horrible. I cant imagine your pain but you are not alone. Not at all.

If your partner can’t see the value you hold, as a partner, as the mother of your kids, he does not deserve you. You hold so much value and anyone that cant see that isnt worth your time.

Prioritise you, your health and your babies. Focus on what makes you feel good. I really hope your situation changes and know you can message me anytime

Advice 🥹

So me and my partner (11yrs) had an argument last night to the point he sat down on his phone and done nothing for our kids all night. This morning he then stayed in bed while I sorted the kids out for school and took them to school. I didn’t bother going back home because I’m fed up that he doesn’t pull his weight. Anyway, I went to a family members house this morning and haven’t engaged in conversation and then I get these messages from him.

So heartbroken I found out my partner is cheating

She posted a bunch of pictures of them together, him in bed kissing her, matching outfits, them at Christmas events etc, hell she has more picture with him than I have of him with the kids in the last year.

I can’t even make sense of it all. We were together 14 years and have kids under 5 including a baby.

I feel like the worst part is the silence. I messaged him a bunch of the photos like wtf how could you do this? How could you be with someone else over a year? He responded with a typo saying “it hasn’t been a year it’s actually been a for a few months”. I don’t know if he meant over a few months or only a few months and it’s driving me insane not to know. He hasn’t opened my messages since Sunday morning. Like umm I’m home alone with babies and my whole world is crashing and you can’t even check your phone? What if there was an emergency? No apology no nothing

It’s a woman I know but hadn’t seen in a few years but our last convo she knew I was pregnant. I messaged her asking how long they been together and how could she date him and flaunt it knowing we had a family and sent pics of our family but she blocked me and changed her page to private. They still follow each other so I don’t think they are broken up but the last post of them was December.


I just can’t believe this. We actually have been doing great in our relationship in the last 3 months things were better than ever. I had zero idea any of this was going on


I hate not knowing if/when he’s coming home? Is he at least coming up with a fake apology or something or will he just be angry and act like he’s done nothing wrong. I can’t believe that was his only response and the typo is driving me mad lol

I haven’t slept or even ate since I found out. I’m so heartbroken we just had celebrated his birthday Saturday with the kids and had such an amazing day out, it was so beautiful our toddler was running around saying daddy daddy daddy which she just learned to say and now I’m just like wtfffffff

Nursery

Hey, My 11month old has been going to nursery since end of January, she does Monday to Friday 9-3. She’s been ill every single week and has completed 3 rounds of antibiotics! She never ends up completing a full week and meaning im off work constantly! Me and my partner also end up catching a bug every week and it’s starting to put a big toll on family life as we are all completely burnt out! She loves to go nursery but I’m seriously thinking of pulling her out as it’s causing so much stress. Is anyone else in the same boat? I’m desperate for advice on what to do for the best. TIA X

Nursery food

Hello, I've suspected for a while that my sons nursery doesnt follow the government guidelines. They have biscuits, cakes etc. I did email them snd they said they do so i left it at that.
Last week they did a mothers afternoon tea and provided cakes, sandwiches for the kids and mothers. They also had haribo marshmallows on offer! I was suprised to see this as they are full or sugar and also a choking hazard! Would you say anything? Ive emailed a few times and I'm worried they are going to hate me but I just found it odd. Yes they could have been for the mums but why would you have marshmallows there. What would you do? X

Advice! Seizures, working and universal credit

My 1 year old has been having seizures since December she’s had roughly about 10
My problem is I’ve only been back at work a few weeks from maternity leave and I’ve already had to take a week off due to her seizures and hospital visits and stays
And She’s had more this past week and it’s becoming tricky with work as child care is an issue with the seizures but financially I can’t afford to give up my job but I don’t think I have another option right now just looking for advice on universal credit and what options I have right now
