Toddler eating habits

Hi there! My boy would eat everything and for the past few weeks it’s been hard to get him to eat dinner. He’s only been drinking his milk and he’ll eat his snacks throughout the day like string cheese, crackers etc. but when it comes to dinner he’s not interested. Is this normal?

Men suck.

Ladies. You cannot trust men. Even the “good” ones wear a mask. My husband told me about some of the conversations the married/serious relationship guys have with each other. He revealed to me that they mostly talk about women that they meet or sleep with. Just completely disrespecting their partners without any reg...

Introducing Solids

I’m not sure if I’m being too hard on myself, but I am absolutely terrified of starting my almost 8M old on solids. Tonight I tried to smash a banana & give him small pieces. He gagged which I know is part of learning to swallow, but it was followed by excessive drooling and that’s the part that made me completely s...

Refusing fruits & veggies

My son will be 2 in July, and he has always been a GREAT eater. The only thing up until now he hasn’t really liked is beans. He’s always eaten all his fruits and veggies without complaint, and veggies are often the first thing on his plate he’ll eat. Within the last couple weeks, fruits and veggies apparently disgus...

Partner and I have different opinions about people visiting after birth, help 😓

My partner wants nobody else involved for the first two weeks after our daughter being born. He wants time just us to bond and said that he feels like I'm going to take that away from him and that it won't be a special time if anyone else is involved.

ACS Childcare Voucher

Does anyone know how much ACS childcare voucher covers for a nanny? I’m having a terrible time finding a daycare center that would accept the voucher and I think I’m going to have to find a nanny instead. But I’m worried it’s not going to pay them much. Any advice is appreciated.
