Parenting

Hey I’m 19 and turn 20 in July literally a week after I’m due. I’m getting really sick of people saying things like “you can’t give him to your mum after 6:00 you know” and saying things to my mum like “get ready to babysit every weekend”. I just think it’s so rude that purely because I’m a young mum they assume tha...

Hey everyone, I need some help with something that happened at my son's first birthday party. It was a day I'd been really excited about, but things didn't go as planned. During the party, my husband got upset and shouted at me in front of our friends. It was because of a misunderstanding about where to put someth...

Ladies, this id going to sound silly, but I’m really not sure what to do at this point. We just moved to a new state for work and moved into an apartment vs. we had a single family home previously. Love the apartment, not an issue… My hubs has developed a habit of “forgetting” to shut the slider on our patio. ALL. ...

I recently found out that my husband has been sexting/ FaceTiming/ calling multiple women for over a month. Keeping in mind that we have a 2 month old little girl. He downloaded an app and started texting these women, not telling them that he was married or had a child. I found out last night when I went to text his...

Okay so last year I found stuff on my fiancés phone I didn’t like , porn , him sending stuff back and forth with girls on only fans (ive seen only fan in his search history prior to this incident and he said it was a accident click btw) , tipping them even if they don’t send anything. Ever since then it just hasn’t ...

Maybe it’s just venting, women that I’ve talked to seem to make it seem pretty universal.. In many ways my husband has been super there during pregnancy (compliments, affection, helpfulness). But I recently hit a wall with feeling the bulk of the mental load, responsibilities, and physical burden of pregnancy. Thing...

We have a 8MO, and I don’t go out that much at all. However since our baby has been born and to be honest even before, he gets so moody when I’m going out to meet my friends for a few drinks. He will be miserable and mopey the whole time and the next day will be off with me, during this time as well he will tell me ...

I keep telling him I need his help and it's not happening. His version of help isn't working for me. What I really mean is.I need you to be a parent not.I need you to help me and I the parent. I'm always saying this stuff to him.I need help.I need a break.I need you to do this or that. Can you please give me a littl...

So do I have every right to be upset or not? Hubby and I had plans to take his mom to dinner tonight due to the fact is tomorrow's mother's Day well she knew this two days in advance and she went out with her friends instead to eat? Are my feelings valid? This has happened more than once and I just feel like she was...

I just spent 4 days by myself while my husband was away for a work trip, and I did so much around the house to try and get it nice looking. He didn’t notice or say anything when he got back. He knew we were supposed to go to an event today for Mother’s Day weekend, but we had a tight schedule as to not overlap wit...

This weekend my family and I are celebrating my little sisters birthday at an Airbnb/resort. Obviously I knew doing activities with my 3-month old son would be tricky. I was proactive and making sure everyone knew his sleep schedule and I decided to sit out of some of the activities so he could nap, but I was hoping...

I am sooo lucky, I know that I have a beautiful healthy baby girl and I am blessed to have a roof under my head and a husband but… Idk its my first mothers day and I thought he would make it more special but nope. I spent my weekend cleaning alone while he left to play soccer and then had a beer with his teammates… ...

Me and my Fiancé have been together for 6 yrs and with tomorrow being mothers day, The only thing he's gotten me is a family dollar bag of candy and 2 monsters. ONLY because I mentioned it to him that I wanted something for mothers day, but that wasn't what I had in mind. He's never really gotten me anything on moth...

So my SS 9 years old literally has a room full of toys he doesn’t play with, all these have been picked by him for birthdays etc but he’d rather play with his 1 year old brothers toys, not playing with his brother but taking them off him and playing. I’d understand if he was playing with him but he’s not. For Chris...

She started nursery around 3 weeks ago and changing her has never been an issue but recently she is hysterical. Every time I collect her she seems happy but obviously at this age they can’t communicate with us. I’ve turned up at different times and she’s always with a member of staff and seems settled. Should I be w...

How. How do you do this mom thing with no help. My boyfriend works afternoon shifts and does side jobs when hes not working. I feel like im doing this all alone. I wish i had this 'village' everyone talks about. My daughter is only 4 months and i feel like im already drowning. My family is scattered all over Ontario...
