My husband is a great husband and father. Our baby has been sick, so she's been seeking mommy most. He's jealous and feeling left out cause she wants me, and he feels he doesn't get much time with her cause he works evenings (I work days) we work opposite shifts... I sleep with her at night cause that's just what wo...
My in-laws offered to have our son for the evening to allow us a night out. I’ve tried calling & FaceTiming but nothing. My inlaw calls my partner saying how MIL is putting our son to bed yet she never called me so I could say goodnight! I’m sat here fucking fuming to the point I want to go get my son but my partner...
So I’m a young single mum but been dating a guy for three months now, he keeps asking me to be his girlfriend and to meet my child but personally it’s too early and I’m yet to see signs of what I want in a partner in him. He’s nice to have sex with and we do little outings but I’ve noticed he tends to ask for things...
Apparently, I am extremely quiet and light footed. I keep "sneaking up on him" and making him jump, and he flips out at me about it and makes me feel bad, even though I've not even tried to be quiet!! I've started trying to walk louder, fake cough when I'm approaching, talking... just so he can hear I'm coming... bu...

Has anyone else ever had the urge to cuss out a family member for just blatantly disrespecting your boundaries? My husband's grandparents let us live with them until we could find a place to live. We moved from Houston to San Antonio while I was still pregnant and finding places was HARD. They ended up having to mov...
Baby will be 10 weeks old on Friday and have been invited out for food by girlfriends on Friday night. Baby is EBF and fussy in the evening (wanting to be on boob). I said I would take him with me but husband said a cheese and wine bar is not the right place for a baby on a Friday night. I completely accept that and...
So I need to know what to do or if this isn’t normal. I seriously cannot watch other people interact with my baby or else I will snatch him away from them and leave the room with the world’s worst attitude. I have no idea why I am like this to literally everyone including my husband. I don’t even want someone touchi...
This might be a stupid question but I’m a first time mum and not sure. Do I have to start with single vegetables when weaning? Can I start with meals or homemade veggie snacks? I’m a little confused 😅
Who qualifies for WIC? I’m pregnant and unemployed BUT I live with my boyfriend who supports the both of us and makes a decent amount. Does his income play any part of being able to get WIC? I really just want it for the formula aspect and fruits as those are pretty expensive and I’m planning on just formula feeding.

Don't have anyone else to send this to that would be proud of me as my mum is no longer with us so I'm honestly just looking for some people who can understand how cool this is.. my first time collecting at 36+2 and I'm so proud of how much I managed to get🥹
We were coming back from London and I bought a bag of fried chicken from Popeyes. It was raining very heavily when we got to the station and we needed to get to our car in the car park. My husband was very concerned about the friend chicken. He then proceeded to grab the friend chicken and dart to the car and barg...
I’m a sahm and do all our baby’s hygiene care, sleep feeds, doctor’s appointments (due to health issues), spend the day with her and put her to bed. After work, my husband takes her for 4 hours so I can shower, organize my pumped milk from the day and nap (I’m up 4-5 hours for baby in the night so the nap balances i...
