Husband commenting about other women?

My husband never used to do it but after 3 years he started commenting every now and then about other women's bodies so I don't know how to feel. All my life I have been insecure about my very small and saggy boobs and he told me a few times things like: "Every man loves boobs" Or "The bigger boobs the better", so I...

How to cope when you want more children, but your partner doesn't?

My husband and I have been together for quite a while, and we've always been on the same page about children (we both wanted 2-3). Shortly before having our daughter, he's changed his mind. Now he says having any more would be a deal breaker for him. I absolutely want at least one more, and I really don't want my da...

What age should I introduce cereal?

My daughter is about to be 4 months old. Several people have recommended that I introduce cereal already, but I was thinking of waiting until she's at least 5 months. I also would like to find a cereal that is organic, has more natural ingredients and is infused with iron. Any recommendations for a good one?

Threenager is making me break down

I’m losing my damn mind with my 3 year old girl. She’s just fighting me on everything and purposefully being difficult. I’ve always been strict so I don’t understand why she thinks she can push it so much. But I’m just losing it because I hate yelling/ punishing her. I don’t know what to doooooo 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

Everything in mouth

My May baby still tries to eat so many not food items such as dirt, play dough and crayons. I thought he would grow out of putting these things in his mouth. He gets extremely distressed when I try and stop him. It’s not like he plays and then tries some. If I get the play dough out he will grab it and immediately p...

Behaviour

Anyone else’s child’s behaviour gotten really bad since starting school? Full of attitude & answering back! Apparently she’s very polite & well mannered at school. We’ve tried talking to her, taking toys off her, stopped her going to her clubs but it’s like she doesn’t care. Literally losing the will😩
