LO has decided the last few weeks that when she has to poop to hide and play with it instead 😭 it is stressing me out greatly. And they told me some babies/toddlers play with it when they discover it because of sensory exploration since it’s a new textural discovery they wanna play with it. I’ve tried to catch her…

Long story short and only a few examples, the in laws mean well but don't go about things in the right way. Since she was born, MIL was obsessed with taking pictures of our daughter, but getting right up close in her with her phone, following you around the room when you were holding her etc. Recently I was sat pla...

I put my little girl who is 11months in her bouncer chair with her bottle and I went to the toilet for a second and she started screaming so I came ran down the stairs to see what has happened and she has just flipped out of the chair onto the floor with the bouncer chair on top of her and she's not stop crying

So my 5 year old is very sneaky and tries to get away with everything. So around 3:30 am I woke up to use the restroom and found my 5 year old in my living room turning on lights and stuff. I ask her what she is doing because she has to be up in about 3 and a half hours for school. She says nothing and goes back to ...

Can anyone suggest what I can do against disrespectful Amazon drivers that just don’t care if they destroy someone’s property? They constantly walk through my lawn, then through my flower bed to cross my driveway to deliver something….I have a U shaped driveway free of cars…just use it…they say the grass feels great...

Im 22 weeks and I have started having discussions with my partner about the birth. I’ve made it clear from day one that I would prefer if his parents didn’t meet us at the hospital that I just want my mother and him, and that maybe after 24 hours of coming home and settling that it would be a better time for them to...

This is just a rant because I have no one else😂 Me and my partner live together, we have a 2yo and a 10 week old. I don't ask a lot of him. I pay all the bills like everything. Baring in mind I'm currently not working and haven't been since my eldest was born due to health reasons. He works full time. I've asked…

Hi everyone. We are on week 2 of potty training my little girl who is 2 and a half. She is going absolutely fine at home with using the potty in the day. We have had minimal accidents and she will take herself off when she needs to go. We are having issues at nursery though, she is holding her wee in all day and th...

So I have 5 kids and (25wp) one on the way and going through a divorce with a narcissist... He's leaving because I caught a female video calling him while he was giving our children a bath... And he also hasn't been a great father to his kids. He disrespects me and my home. So when I pointed out what he does that's ...

Please tell me what adjustments I need to make ❤️ I don’t own a car but trying to make sure she is safe before going in her uncles car

What are you giving your babies for lunch and dinner? And is anyone not really doing BLW yet? We have attempted a few times but my baby will take a massive bite out of the appropriately cut food we give him so obviously a choking hazard and it just terrifies me and we have to stop, so still feeding him myself. We a...

Hi guys! I am a 28 year old Mom to 5-month-old. I live in Northern nevada, and I'm looking for mom friends for myself but also kids that my son can interact and have play dates with as he grows older. My son at 5 months old, is extremely extroverted and loves people😅🥰. He is constant smiling and loves to be…

My little one is 5 months old today! He’s a chilled little guy and would happily play on his playmat or recently his jumperoo but is getting frustrated with not being able to move yet 🙈 so I’m looking for some sensory activities little ones actually enjoy? He liked the water for about 30 seconds and hated the peas…

Looking at going to Greece in June and my little one will have just turned 1. I looked at booking with tui but they only allow 1 free baby item and with taking a travel cot, pram and car seat I don’t want to have to pay for another 2 items and from what I’ve seen on here a lot of airlines allow 2 free items? Any ad...

I have a friend who suffers really badly with anxiety and as a result isn’t eating. She’s already very slim and I am worried that she’s going to make herself really ill. Does anyone know any great high calorie snacks or anything I can buy for her to encourage her to eat, even a little something! Tia x

Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat really. My little one started nursery at the beginning of January and the first two drop offs were absolutely fine, no tears and no tears on collection either. He goes two days a week from 8am-6pm. However since then, he’s crying and clinging on to me in the morning ...
