Toddler & Child

Okay so I’m currently a SAHM, my partner works but when he’s home he also has little responsibilities, some examples are he’s repsonsible for taking out the trash when the bin gets full as far as any household upkeep. Everything else I do. I cook and clean every single day. He does the dishes when I do bedtime routi...

I know this sounds like a silly thing to worry about but my baby starts nursery soon and her nursery provides breakfast, so part of me is wondering whether to just skip her breakfast on the days she goes in to save time? Because I’ll be in such a rush and I’ll already have to wake up extremely early! But also wonder...

nice to her. Like, he asks how she’s doing, and gives her good advice, and compliments her. He doesn’t talk to me like that, he talks to me either by complimenting my body or pretty much something related to sex. Idk, it just seems like he talks to her the same way he would talk to me when we were just getting toget...

Do you pay family to look after your child while at work? Someone told me they give family £200 for a month to cover food, going out, softplay etc yet their family doesn’t take their child out I don’t pay ours for the one day they have her but I offered to send them money for her milk as I didn’t pack enough but th...

I'm exhausted mentally. I love my daughter so much, she's an absolute blessing. But I spend so much time with just her, I think I'm starting to fade away. I never know when my partner will get home, so I feel like I'm constantly waiting for him to walk through the door & just give me a second of relief. Even if it'...

Had a call from nursery to let me know there had been an incident at nursery where another child had scratched my son’s face. It’s the first time it has happened, so I got upset afterwards but felt prepared and was glad I had pre-warning. When I picked him up, I burst into tears as soon as I saw him. It isn’t what ...

I got a call from my sister in law while I was getting my little one ready to head out the door. My son was at recess, and another kid had him pinned against the fence repeatedly punching him in the stomach. My sister in law was freaking out and yelling out the window for this kid to stop. Screaming at the teachers ...

I was banging on the sofa with the man next door. My partner came home early and threw up on the floor. Who should clean up the mess

Did you teach your child or did you rely on the school?

I had the worst experience today during my daughter’s 1 year review. She’s on the 99th percentile and has been for a long time now (since she was about 5-6 months old). She is formula fed due to a traumatic birth, weaned at 6 months and there’s not been one food that she doesn’t like which is amazing and I’m so prou...

My bd had once cheated on me, messaging and meeting the woman. Of course my dumbass took him back because I thought it was best for the kids since he’s the main bread maker.. anyway I still feel some insecurity and resentment. Today he didn’t come straight home but went to the “park”. He comes inside and I’m being p...

I’m a pretty low maintenance friend. My mental health pretty much keeps me at bay but I am trying to work on it💪 I don’t really have any hobbies or many interests just trying to stay alive every day for my babies so it all keeps me exhausted on the daily😅surely im not the only one tho and if I am, then that’s even…

I just had my 5th baby I have 4 boys and a girl my family is perfect and complete a great husband a lovely home. We are tired, busy but soo happy and fulfilled. I think I may be addicted to having babies and being pregnant?! I loved all my pregnancies and just felt like such a special time. My youngest is 5 months a...

For those of you that are now giving solids, how are you working this alongside the bottles? How many bottles are you giving and with how many meals? Has your baby dropped any ounces or even a whole bottle? For some reason my mind has gone completely blank to when I weaned my daughter a few years ago and I just can...

My baby is 14 weeks old (3.5 months) and has been drooling a lot and biting his hands and more irritable. Trying to chew on his fingers and mine. Seems to be calmed or soothed when using a stage 1 or 2 teether. I called his paediatrician today to ask about teething remedies and she said he’s not teething, he’s too...

I wasn’t planning on to, and have never done it, but the teachers at my son’s school have mentioned it a few times, and I just wanted to know everyone’s take on this,
