I’m convinced I’m married to a covert narcissist. The marriage has been very rocky since I got pregnant. I feel all he cares about is just himself, he never asks me how I feel & dismisses me when I share the pain I’m going through. I’m 32 weeks pregnant & it’s been rough these past two weeks. He never has time to go...

Can you please recommend a potty; I’m not planning to strictly “potty train” more a natural process.

Hello. I know there aren't many members here, and it doesn't look like there's recent activity... but hoping someone is out there. I had two children when I was young. After an "intermission" I had two more. Then I eventually gained a daughter-in-law who then birthed my first grandchild. She and my son lived 1/2 wa...

My son would normally be in bed around 7-8ish. It is 9pm and he is still wide awake screaming in pain. I just assumed it was because he is currently teething, I’ve given him some calpol earlier and then noticed this on his cheek. Does anyone know what it could be? I was thinking it’s a bruise from when he is crawlin...

I feel like I really don’t like my partner at the moment. He is always tense and I feel like I walk on egg shells and have to like keep our daughter quiet and controlled to stop him from getting frustrated. He never used to be this way and I do think his temper is coming as a side effect from his antidepressants. He...

He works 10-14 hour days over half the week and I feel like I’m only married on the weekend, on top of this I’m practically a single parent at this point. This was supposed to be the end of a year of tenuous employment and near homelessness since we both got laid off when I was four months pregnant. That was a who...

So i pretty much attend the concert alone contacting her through text and als...

How do you get your kid to not make a huge mess? Like even with pouches my son will shake it everywhere and make a huge mess and barely eat any. Idk what to do to have him just eat it or if this is just normal. Any advice is appreciated!

Is feltham hill a forest school? Does anyone send their child here? What's it like? I'm exploring the idea of sending my son to a forest school but need to do a lot of research. If there's any other forest schools in the borough please let me know your experience?

So after 14 months my baby started day care and I went back to work. And we are all happier? Why do I feel bad about that. Baby gets so much stimulation from day care and naps so well there. I have time to myself (I work from home 100% of the time) and can get back into my career and have adult conversations. I pick...
