My LB will be 6 months in 2 weeks, I am a 2nd time mum but my first I was advised to wean from 4 months due to ebf and feeding for 50 minutes. I must add I don't and didn't intend to wean 2nd till 6 months. But I'm wondering if these are signs that he's still hungry. My LB sits unassisted and has good neck control s...

My little one hasn’t been eating properly for 3 weeks now! I’m running out of ideas and the only thing she’ll eat is Greek yoghurt 😢 Any tips?

Anyone’s little one just not interested in food and never really has been? At the minute she does have a cold so she literally won’t eat anything soon as you put it near her she turns her head away still drinking milk as normal. Worried because from a year meals are supposed to be their main nutrition my health vi...

My husband got a new job alhamdulillah, and I asked when we were talking about it that is the payment good? I didn’t ask how much or nothing too intrusive but still he became very defensive and told me that’s none of my business. Is this normal? Do you gals know how much your husband earns? Just for context I’m a SA...

I have a 10 year old stepdaughter, my husband has full custody and she sees her mom every other weekend. Over the past few weeks, her attitude and behavior has become increasingly disrespectful towards me. She is constantly telling me “no” or “I’m not doing that” when I ask her to help with chores around the house. ...

Is anybody else’s baby devouring food like there’s no tomorrow? My little girl is absolutely loving trying new foods and different textures😄

So I’m 15 weeks pregnant and I’m really struggling when I don’t have my son with me. He’s recently turned one and I’m struggling when he goes out with his dad to his grandmothers (my partners mother and I don’t get along) it courses so much anxiety and makes me feel so sick and stressed. I just want him to be home. ...

But in all reality my life is like a fucking dumpster fire. I am pregnant. I have a seven-year-old. I’m single parent. My seven-year-old’s father is incarcerated for life for murder. He still thinks we’re together and upset with me because I’m pregnant And The guy that I’m pregnant by is a piece of shit. He alread...

Every morning my son (26 month old) has a cup of milk with his breakfast which he asks for but doesn’t finish the whole cup and I end up chucking it because it will just curdle. So I wash the cup out and give him either water or juice , but he will just sip it and not often enough. I have tried different juices thin...

I'm in such a bad mood right now purely because of the attitude and number of "NO"s I've had to deal with today. And the rude demands. And the refusal to do anything. The latest comment that has pushed me to vent on here being "when's dinner?" "Not for a while yet that's why you've got your snack" "I don't want it p...

My son (19m) has recently become VERY attached to me, so much that he wants no one else near him, he's also suddenly started waking up at 1-2am and then will absolutely refuse to go back to sleep, crying flinging his arms in the air and I'm so tired! Tried everything from night lights, cuddling him, sitting with him...

But also nervous a bit! Because I've got the hidden trenches of my home a messs and I don't usually let anyone see those places! One of the most embarrassing is my master bathroom. I don't even use it anymore it's just so dirty all the time.. my husband only uses it at this point... I periodically try to clean it bu...

So my baby girl was born May 1st so Dec 1st she’ll be 7 months. She absolutely refuses refuses any solids. I can barely get one spoon of a taste. I’ve tried: sweet potatos, squash, peas, banana, avocado, apples, mango, banana in puree form. I’ve also given her bites of food to self feed to see if she’d rather and sh...

So my husband and I both work from home and same jobs , we have 2kids both 1.5yr old and less than 1yr old, I hold both kids while working at same time while sometimes when I have meetings and he doesn’t he might help hold them for max 20-30mins for me to get done with meeting, this doesn’t happen everyday as most d...

A kid around 7 just stole £1 off of my 4 year old and after I got it back I wondered if I should have told his mum. I didn’t cuz I’m no snitch (edit to say this is a JOKE) but wondering what you guys would do ?

What meals do you give your baby? Struggling for ideas and dont want to do processed prepackaged foods

Hey Girlies, I am experiencing my first spout of proper 'Mum Guilt'! I work from home and sometimes my family, who look after my little one, do not pick him up straight away so there a bit of cross over where I need to be on my laptop. I had him sat near me with toys around him and also a spoon that I didn't real...

My baby is now 11 months old and my MIL from the start has wanted to take my daughter out for walks. I’ve been very uncomfortable with it and now I’ve started but still super uncomfortable with it 😂 just trying to let her go once a month or something to shut her up. Basically there’s no exact reason right, my MIL…

I just wondered if people are planing on giving anything to the teachers at Christmas? I know maybe not everyone can afford this and that’s okay. My little one will probably do some arts and crafts to gift too! I was thinking of maybe doing a little hamper for all the teachers to share? I’m thinking that will be che...

So I could really use some advice- my son will be 4 in February and we’ve been consistently potty training since a couple months after he turned 3 years old. He does really good with peeing. We keep him naked from waist down all day and he’ll go pee fine with no accidents, but when it comes to poop, he will literall...
