Hey, is anyone really struggling with finding a job that works with nursery times? My child is 3 now so universal credit are doing everything they can to make me go back to work.

Husband was making dinner this evening and put honey on some of the chicken. I said our 10 month old couldn’t have honey because it could make her really unwell.

My 14 week old has been incredibly unsettled, not sleeping, lots of crying. I’ve felt really low unable to work out how to help him or make him happier.

How do you feel if your partner has female friends? I find it difficult because I know everyone can just be friends, but I don't really trust my husband making female friends.

I have a 2 year old and a 4 month old baby and we still haven’t gotten used to having two kids yet, but my husband basically refuses to watch both of them at the same time to give me a break. A couple nights a week he goes to recovery meetings (he’s been sober 7 years) so I do bedtime by myself and he never has to d...
