So my little one has recently been crying in the morning I when I leave for work or even when I go to the toilet, bearing in mind I have been back to work for over a year now and it’s the first time he’s actually been upset that I have to leave him, up until a few weeks ago, my MIL looks after him whilst am at work ...

My husband never used to do it but after 3 years he started commenting every now and then about other women's bodies so I don't know how to feel. All my life I have been insecure about my very small and saggy boobs and he told me a few times things like: "Every man loves boobs" Or "The bigger boobs the better", so I...

My lo has always had a lot of screen time in the background she will sometimes watch but often will play with her toys at the same time. I just feel it keeps us all sane. I don’t like a quiet house. Is there something wrong with this. I do notice she has a short attention span when eating etc and wondering if it’s m...

My husband and I have been together for quite a while, and we've always been on the same page about children (we both wanted 2-3). Shortly before having our daughter, he's changed his mind. Now he says having any more would be a deal breaker for him. I absolutely want at least one more, and I really don't want my da...

I’m losing my damn mind with my 3 year old girl. She’s just fighting me on everything and purposefully being difficult. I’ve always been strict so I don’t understand why she thinks she can push it so much. But I’m just losing it because I hate yelling/ punishing her. I don’t know what to doooooo 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

Anyone else’s child’s behaviour gotten really bad since starting school? Full of attitude & answering back! Apparently she’s very polite & well mannered at school. We’ve tried talking to her, taking toys off her, stopped her going to her clubs but it’s like she doesn’t care. Literally losing the will😩

I recently posted about my husband leaving our baby unsupervised on higher surfaces to wash his hands or to grab something, mostly on the changing table or baby bouncer without using the straps. Well, he did it again today. Baby was in the bouncer without the straps attached and he went across the room to grab som...

Okay so what is your opinion on activities that you find to bring your babies(play dates)i just came out from one and feel super bad my daughter was trying to touch the other baby arm and trying to be friendly and after everything finished a lady comes and say she was like agressive because of that.I feel that if yo...

I’m sorry, but my husband is the laziest father I have ever known. I’ve only ever seen him change 2 NAPPIES since our child became a toddler. His excuse is “he doesn’t like toddler poop, he’ll be sick”. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Barely plays with our child unless I call him out on it. I’ve helped our child hit every mile...

Hi , I have three year old twins, my son is autistic. I am really struggling to give them both quality time. They don't play well together because my son finds it hard to share and is possessive over toys. My daughter tries to play with him but they end up both getting upset. If I try to spend time with my son then ...

She has to be in an absolutely perfect mood to be put down. Even when she’s in a great mood, I still can’t put her down sometimes. I can’t even put her down on the floor next to me. Sometimes I can’t even lay her down on the bed next to me with my arm around her, she has to be on me to fall asleep. Even if my husban...

Long story short my husband wants to separate. He works blue collar and wants to travel for work and live in a camper. He says he’ll come home once a month and take the kids for a week as far as a custody agreement. They are currently 4 months and 20 months old. I assume he’ll leave his camper where ever he’s work...

I know this is silly, but I’m getting down about how many times people say my baby looks like my husband / his family (particularly my father in law) I feel so bad saying it because I love them all but it’s getting me a bit down, I think because I’m struggling too to see any of myself / my family in my baby. I’m rea...

First off, let me start by saying I u distant my kids are 100% my responsibility. I live in a city where my husband’s mom is the only family, and I have two under two. So my husband’s mom is always saying she’s going to come over to be with the kids, but she never does. Like she literally voluntarily says she will ...

me and my husband have been thinking for a while now to have a second child. We have a beautiful 4y old daughter that started school in September . I’m obviously on board of the idea but the only thing worrying me is the school runs every morning with a newborn.. I’d love to know other mums experience, was it hard j...

My son is so clingy ATM and Everytime my husband has him he's going where's mummy. Just find I don't get any time to clean the house currently, especially when I work too 😡 it's just a bloody mess.

Lately my 18 month old and my 3 year old have been hitting each other I don't hit them never have but my little one is the one that starts the fights she's constantly just hitting my big baby and I try talking to her but she just doesn't stop as much as i try talking to her obviously she's 1 then when they both go b...

When I tell you this woman has 4 kids 2 are my partners. She goes out twice a month which is fair enough but she’s always moaning she needs a break. For 4 kids she goes out a lot. I’ve never had a break in 19 month every nap and bedtime I’ve done every appointment I’ve taken my child too my baby partner has never gi...

Child and husband free for the first time in months. Do I deep clean the house or go to sleep?🤣

I’m struggling so much with dividing my time between my 2 year old and my 5 month old. I find myself just crawling the living room floor between them both throughout the day. My 2 year old doesn’t play independently for very long and my 5 month old only has 30 min naps every 3 hours until bedtime. I’ll play with tod...
