Parenting

My husbands been invited to a surprise party on a Saturday evening 6-9:30pm however I’ve told him he cannot go unless he takes the baby with him. He recently asked me to go back to work which I had no problems with however when the job came up a month ago it was Saturday/Sunday nights 10-6 and he agreed to have the ...

My partner is going to be traveling this weekend and I’m actually looking forward to things with the kids running more smoothly 🥲 tonight he comes home from work, the kids (2.5 years and 6 months) are wanting him because they have missed him, he gets overwhelmed, says “I walk in and the pressure’s on” and has to…

So last night my husband and I got into an argument and it blew up more than it should have. Well, he goes to shower at about 6pm and he comes out the shower and says “I’m going to bed”. Before this we discussed dinner but did not discuss who would cook. Anyways, since he was going to bed and I had some leftovers I ...

How do I deal with annoying inlaws? When my husband got home, he brings up seeing his parents again this weekend and we just saw them for the holidays. Even though that was 3 weeks ago, I have been busy! I am not too fond of his parents either and they are suffocating me. I am still trying to get stuff done from 202...

How much time should dad be spending with baby 15 months old ? Like 1-1 playing reading holding etc He’s home 24/7! With me. We both aren’t working right now, I’m still breastfeeding so obv he can’t be a part of that but I guess I feel like he doesn’t do enough… so just want other opinions. He says I nag and complai...

FTM. I came to the USA 3 years ago with my husband, so we are alone here. Our baby (7 weeks) has reflux, he is usually pretty fussy m, now he has been fighting the bottle to eat, but he is hungry, and he wont eat. He’s sleepy but he wouldn’t go to sleep. I feel like his stomach is hurting but this has been going for...

My little girl is very attached and hates nursery to the point where she just cries constantly. Please tell me this gets better? I feel so mean 😪

My brother in law, Carlos, isn't right in the head due to drug use. I've always been uncomfortable around him even before being pregnant 😅 he doesn't make eye contact ever, always has his head down and always wearing a ski mask and hat even in the summer.. and he basically never talks. He just isn't there anymore..…

I know I married the right guy. He is sweet and loving. Ever since our 5 week old daughter was born he has been so distant with her. He barely wants to spend time with her and when he gives her a bottle he barely holds her or has her in such a weird unloving position. It makes me really sad and I’ve expressed my con...

My husband and I been married a little over five years. We just had our baby in August. We’ve been through a lot together, and we bonded over the fact that we grew up poor and don’t really have much family to count on. Now we’ve come up together and love having a lil family. Where we differ is with religion. He lean...

I feel like such a bad mother. I can’t stop grieving my life if I didn’t have a baby. I’m 3 months pp and just struggling so much with the fact that I’m only 20 and wanted to do so much more before having a child and now I feel like nothing but a mom. Nobody respects me, I barely ever have time to myself, and I bare...

And literally say "well then, just sit there and whine!" I feel bad, but jeeeeeezzz .... Fed & full. Had milk. Has water constantly available. So not hungry or thirsty. Dry, clean & dressed appropriately. So not wet, dirty, cold or hot. Maybe teething, so put some teething powder on - literally cannot do muc...

My husband has a work permit that allows him to take paternity leave. Just writing it makes me laugh because there’s nothing paternal about it. He hasn’t worked for almost two months, and most days (the majority), he doesn’t even hold his baby. Today, he says he’s tired, and it’s one of those days. Do you have any ...

I have twins toddlers boys in their terrible twos era, and I feel like nothing works. My husband suggested spanking, but my mother shames me for it even though she spanked me.

So tomorrow is my sd birthday she is non verbal autistic and has a limited understanding we live nearly an hour away from my partners kids and my partner has decided we (us and kids) are going to kids bio mums house after school which i have done and can take 2 hours in traffic. Now i have tried to explain that it's...

Me and my fiance have been trying since November and haven’t succeeded yet but I started taking ashwagandha gummies and red raspberry leaf tea to regulate my reproductive hormones and stay stress free. So far, it’s been going on 2 months and my sexual desire increased, I’m happier and more at peace usually but today...
