My husbands aunts and his gran keep asking us what they can get our son for Christmas. We're really grateful that they want to get something for him, but it really isn't needed. I already have Christmas sorted and have bought his toys and books. They don't want to give him any vouchers or money, they want to buy so...

Is anyone else weary of taking antibiotics with pregnancy?

Is it possible for men and women to be really good friends? When I say really good I mean message each other all day and night 😩 they worked together for 3 years and she now has left to go to another job. My partner says this woman is just a really good friend but she’s absolutely stunning and he’s even admitted…

My husband just started his new job so I would like to cook for him! I absolutely love cooking and baking! Please share your favorite dinner recipes and if you have a favorite dessert recipe I would love to hear it as well! I have made Homemade Chicken Alfredo, Homemade Chicken Tenders with BBQ baked beans and Green...

LO has lots of toys already and doesnt really need or want anything else. We don't have any toys that are ready to be thrown out or taken to the charity shop and I refuse to just mindlessly clear out toys that are perfectly good just to make room for piles of toys that will be gifted.. We of course are going to bu...

If anyone wants to chat let me know

I didn’t realise how lonely being pregnant is. I’ve been off for nearly 4 weeks due to being sick the first week and then annual leave for the last 3 weeks. My parents are in America & my partner has been working and gosh I just feel so alone. I’ve never really had friends so everyday I’ve just been in the house sta...

Do you overshare??? Has there been anytime you share something and you wish you can take it back? Is oversharing a temporal fix or long-term solution to whatever makes us share??? Thanks for your contribution!

Please could someone recommend a good brand? Thank you :)

I Need some friends feel like I have no one to talk to besides my babies does anyone ever feel that way? near or far idc need a txting buddy or someone to hang with sometimes. This momma has no friends 😭

Not baby related: My 30th was last month and I’m still so resentful about it. I literally got NOTHING on the day. No cards, no presents, no cake, no nothing. I’m not one for cards or presents. I’m an adult, I can get my own things 🤣 but it’s the lack of effort that has upset and annoyed me and I don’t think…

What do you gift your husbands for Christmas? My husband is hard to shop for and now that I’m not working I don’t really have much money. I don’t want him to have nothing to open Christmas morning.

I often think to myself, am I racist because I only like to be friends with other black women like me! I genuinely don’t feel comfortable around other races I often get a feeling of at some point I’m going to have to beat you tf up for saying or doing something out of line and I just don’t want to take them chances!...

I’m pregnant with my first and due in April and I initially put my maternity leave to start on my due date with a week of annual leave prior so I finish work at 39 weeks, but I keep seeing videos etc where people recommend finishing earlier! My question is for people who have had their maternity leave, did you feel ...

Does anyone else feel sad and isolated, vulnerable and alone during pregnancy? It only started at about 20 weeks for me. I find myself tearing up and crying most days as my friends (none of them have kids) haven’t really bothered with me at all since finding out, and haven’t checked to ask how I am. I thought I woul...

32F here, with my husband for 3.5 years, but been sexless since 2/10/24. During this time I’ve started to develop feelings for women and I’m realizing that at the end of the day I’ve been bisexual since high school… Anyone else like this? Anyone interested in some playful 🌶️ sexting?

I think we’ve forgotten what Christmas was all about and it has turned into a hyper materialistic holiday fueled by all retailers. The whole point was to give to those in need, spend time with family and be there for each other and creating new memories we would cherish all of our lives. It’s not to go in debt to ma...

But I watch the coupon people and I badly wanna learn how to coupon lol so I been stocking up on cleaning supplies so I can one day have a pantry full lmao but I’m at a good start guys! You seee me 🥹😂💖

I’m looking at applying for maternity allowance (stoped working mid way through pregnancy so all I’m entitled to) I’ve worked the 13 weeks required in the time frame and earned enough but I didn’t pay national insurance because I didn’t earn enough to have to pay. It says about needing to have paid class 2 NI to qua...
