So I broke up with my daughter’s dad back in July, he didn’t see her for the first 3 months (I asked him for a long time to please come see her, but he refused so I stopped). She’s now 2 and goes to her dad’s Monday and Wednesday from 11-5, and every time she comes home she is so grumpy and acts so different. I know...

So we’re going up to my partners mums after Christmas who has only met my son once who’ll be 5 1/2 months old by this point. My partner wants to go and see his friends band play which I have no issue with and he wants his mum to watch our son which I’m not exactly comfortable with but as a compromise I’ve said maybe...

I dont work often, but I did today. I only got to see my man in passing this morning, then I was off to work and took the kid with me. He had to go to work after the fact, and apologized I would have no breaks today and ensured he would be home early and bring dinner. I fell asleep on the couch, and woke up to a cal...

My son is almost 18 months old but he has been ripping his diapers off constantly. Is it time to start potty training him? I know it’s kind of early but he already knows that when I have to go potty I go to the bathroom and he will follow.

I just got engaged and find out tonight my fiancee little brother is engaged, is something wrong with this picture or is it just me? 2.) His little brother is wanting to get married next year around my due date(pregnant) so does this sound petty or disrespectful towards his big brother and our relationship to ask ...

I’ve tried talking to some of my in-laws and friends about how my toddler can be a bit difficult and basically just asking if they’ve had a similar situation and how they handled it…. Their solution is to just throw them in daycare or to get signed up for preschool asap. That just doesn’t sit well with me because ...

I physically and mentally cannot live with my husbands grandparents anymore. They drive me fucking insane. His grandmother is constantly telling me how to parent and giving me the most OBVIOUS advice. “You should put a jacket on him. it’s cold” well no shit. it’s 30° outside, why would I not put him in something??? ...

Don’t get me wrong I love and give credit to my man for providing and being an awesome dad, that being said. I used to work full time, we can trade and I’ll go back to work 40 hours a week but he would never do that. Let’s be real.

My husband has been working on our renovation project most weekends while I'm left to care for the baby. We have no village locally. I am showing signs for heightened stress, and would like to know how everyone else balances childcare responsibilities with their partner, when they get time off, etc.

Has anyone attempted to feed infant cereal to your babies yet? What is the recommended age to introduce it? My baby girl will be turning 4 months and I'm getting mixed answers.

My daughter is in a daycare that has a uniform. I iron it every week. Starch it too. BD was over the other day and I asked him to do it, and he said he has never iron ever in his life. He legit didn’t know how. And I had to show him. We are 34. I just thought that was crazy. To not use it nowadays, sure, but...

I just feel like I can never catch up on all the house work. I can’t remember the last time I mopped my floors. But I do take care of my son. He’s always well dressed, bathed, fed, I play with him, take him outside and try to teach him things throughout the day. I do laundry, I try to make sure dinner is made for my...

Since introducing food to my 6month old, breakfast and tea, he has started to mess around with his bottles inbetween. Has anyone else found this? Have you introduced a third meal or continued with milk inbetween? What’s your routines now?

Hi ladies.... I'll try to keep it short so long story short I'm fed up with my bd he's very manipulative (I try to break up he says he wants to pass away ) he's a liar he's a cheater etc I've been with him for the past nine yrs and we have two kids our oldest told his dad I don't like you he said it to me I don't l...

I feel like the amount I spend holds no weight, like I’d come back home and realise I spent more than what I actually bought. Definitely feeling the cost of living and as much as I budget things and do without things I still come up short 😭😖 How much is your weekly shop?

I don't know about anyone else, but being a first-time mum is so hard. I just don't know what to expect, and every little thing stresses me out. I've become obsessed with how much she feeds, and I believe it's because of how we were treated with the midwives when she was first born. LG doesn't consistently drink t...

Has anyone applied? I find it all so confusing! I don’t think our little ones can use it until a certain term either.
