I’m fuming how can a grandmother be like this no wondering her sons a deadbeat how do you all deal with your ex’s and their bloody mothers screenshots in comments

I have a 4 week old newborn and I have a LOT of help and I am still wildly overwhelmed and feel like I’m doing a terrible job. I get really frustrated, I would never hurt him but I have found myself being aggressive at times in my movements/speech that make me feel like a bad person and a bad mom. He is an easy ba...

Hii, I was just wondering how you'd feel about this: I have been in mental health therapy for 1 year now as I have 2 under 2 and was often really stressed and even depressed especially when I was sick and the chores would pile up for weeks and I was feeling horrible, maybe on top of everything sleepless nights and a...

I'm 5 months PP. I am starting to feel moody and resentment towards my husband. I am a first time mom, it's been a journey for my son, he has mild eczema since he was 1 month. I am consistently fighting to find a way to help him be at ease while my husband what seems to me he says, live his normal life before my son...

I take my 10 week old out maybe 3 or 4 days of the week and then the other days we chill at home in our jammies and watch TV. Does anyone else feel guilty that they're not out more? Sometimes we do a couple lazy days in a row! He seems content and chilled though which is good! Just feel guilty staying in 🫣 how much…

I’m desperate to start sorting my baby’s room and putting the few bits and pieces that we have for her in their place and seeing what else we need to buy, but my mother in law has very kindly offered to paint the nursery, but apparently is a bit of a perfectionist because it has now been 5 weeks since she started th...

so me and my partner are going through a rough spot, and i’m not sure we’re gonna get past this. in the last few months he’s shown no interest in helping with our 6 month old (unless i practically beg), he doesn’t do anything around the house, and he’s terrible with his money. just straight up irresponsible. i’ve to...

So this weekend we went to go see my parents for my toddler's 3rd birthday. I told her when we got there that my toddler doesn't need clothes, she needs toys for her age (we were having a conversation about Christmas toys) firstly she was deciding on getting our toddler her first bike.. I said no. That's a parents...

Hey, have had a manic weekend with toddler, non stop on the go. I think baby is tired and needs a rest (like me) I've had movements but reduced for 2 days and no means of anyone having my toddler for me for a few hours to pop to the hospital... What do I do 😂 my hospital don't let them in so she can't come and sit…

My live in sister thinks she’s a great aunt and I admit she is a great aunt in some aspects- she’s playful, imaginative, a great teacher but what she isn’t is a good protector. When she gets mad at me, she takes away love and attention for my year old daughter… She intentionally distances herself from her, ignores...

Hey ladies, I’m seeking some advice as I’m feeling a bit unsure about my situation. I’m currently 15 weeks pregnant with my second baby and have a toddler at home. I’m feeling anxious about giving birth, especially because I’m usually on my own at night and don’t have any family or close friends nearby who could loo...

Me and my partner have 2 kids and we have argued and argued since day 1 we have planned to get married next year but all we do is argue I really want this to work for the sake of the kids but I am so drained of this relationship that idk what to do is there any tips to get things back on track because I really want ...

I have a work situation that is stressing me out so much. My boss is using my work cell line on his phone too & seeing all the texts I send & it’s giving me constant panic. It’s not necessary for him to use my work cell. He’s trying to help but I’m the manager and I can have my own autonomy. I should have never give...

Am I the only one who gets super annoyed and pissed off when someone is commenting that my child is not dressed warm enough? First I walk the hallway in my building with my baby in the pram, (i normally put a hat on him downstairs and zip his suit as the corridor is not very cold) some old lady looks at him and with...

My husband and I always agreed on only 2 children. I have a toddler (girl) and baby (boy). I know that I am so so lucky and it doesn’t make any sense to have any more children (financially, sharing attention between kids, small house etc…) he is adamant that we are only having 2. But… I feel so sad every time someon...

Every time my partner got caught talking to someone else it was always the type of chicks that were a full face of makeup the most I do is eyeliner I just don’t feel like I need to change my skin .plus with always working fulltime, running a household name taking care of kids we now have 5 under 10 i don’t have the ...

Do any of yall have a schedule type thing with ur husband/bf so you both get time to rest and to ur self and if yall do does ur other half actually stick to it? And what is it? Asking before I crash out on my baby’s dad

I think I just need to rant but does anyone have any advice? I’ve had a really complicated pregnancy and have needed to attended appointments 2-3 times a week, am regularly having to get checked out and I always go to these things on my own. A lot of this stuff has really scared me and it’s been hard doing it on my ...

I need a pep talk about my son always wanting to be with me right now. He loves daycare and walks right in when dropped off. We have babysitters he is great with too. But, no matter where we are or who we are with if I am in the room all he wants is me or to be held by me. I know this is developmentally normal, but ...
