I honestly feel like the worst mum. Partner is currently away and my little one just keeps doing silly things and I’m getting so upset. Normally she can get on and off our bed, today I’ve put my clothes in the wardrobe and she’s on the fall from falling off the bed. The other day she tripped the step of the back doo...

Recently, he's been going on about BJ's, I have a horrific gag reflex. He claims he has never been happy, says I am the worst sex he's ever had.

So it’s my birthday, first one as a Mum, first one without my own Dad as he sadly passed away 4 months ago. I’ve not been exactly excited about my birthday, it sorta gets swallowed up with a 10 months ago old and it’s all very new emotions thinking I won’t be seeing my dad so it all feels a bit strange. I know I sho...

My husband has pushed me, threw water at my face, beat me with a pillow for hours, grabbed my wrist very hard, and other small physical aggressions over the time in our relationship.

Ladies, I need your opinion, do you think my husband’s comments were rude? I work from home, take care of our baby, manage the household, and do the cooking.

Honestly having a baby puts an enormous strain on your relationship. LO is now 11 months and my husband has for a good while now had problems with when he cries excessively.
