Long shot but has anyone gone to the Dr for their little one with suspected ARFID and got a successful diagnosis? I am at my wits end with my boy eating. I've tried everything under the sun to try and get him to eat different foods and he just refuses to try anything new. I've tried using incentives, punishment, ta...

What soups can a 15 month old eat? Like is there a specific brand I should stay away from? Should I just say fuck it and make it home made? My little dude is sick and I thought like chicken noodle soup might be good but again I’m not sure if it’s okay to just buy a can or not

My partner just told me he’s fed up with me and is going to cheat on me. He’s not happy with me. He said he’s been trying to change me for the better and I don’t listen to him for the last 2 yrs. Is he right? Yes for the most part. I do, do things my way, when he suggests doing things another way, even tho my way do...

What is everyone doing with their 6 month old during the day to keep them entertained? Like are you with them playing or doing something every second they are awake, because I feel like I am so that he doesn't start crying or when he is sitting up I put pillows there but feel like I have to be near just incase! And ...

I have 3 kids and I can’t afford childcare or anything really and I need to get a job.

Hey mums! I’m not working at the moment due to some health conditions but I do want to get back into studying. My partner thinks it’s a good idea to send our little one to nursery.
