Does he deserve jail time?

I see a lot of post where husbands are just horrible and everything so I want to post something positive! Our daughter has been pretty sick the past couple of days and he took work off today to stay and help out with house chores and our daughter♥️ She’s been very glued to me while being sick making it so I can’t ge...

I can't cope anymore I don't know what to do and nobody is getting back in touch I've been waiting for the nursery nurse about help with behavior. I'm spending night time having clumps of hair ripper out and my face scratched up. She's violent with her sister out of no where. Her outbursts are uncontrollable. Please...

Anyone else feel their in-laws aren't what you first thought?

I have returned to WFH and the nights with my little are getting to me. During the day he wants to be in someone’s arms or he gets fussy and at night he is waking up more frequently. I feel foggy in my head and emotional. He woke up 6 times last night crying and before my alarm went off to start the day and I lost i...

I'm just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. I'm exclusively breastfeeding and I have no desire to do anything sexual. I'm exhausted and always busy with baby. And I honestly just don't want to. My partner has been very patient with me but now he's constantly asking me to do stuff. It's so frustrating and ...

My boyfriend and I own our house. I put the deposit in and he pays the mortgage as I'm a sahm to our 2 young children. We're probably about even now on our financial input to the property but what happens to the house if we break up? I feel forced to stay in this loveless relationship because of the house and the...

I’m getting tired of constantly telling my husband over and over again to not throw his clothes on the floors, THE BASKET IS LITERALLY RIGHT THERE.. I already deal with toddler and twins 🤦🏻‍♀️

My one year old and three year old are both very stubborn and independent. My three year old use to like to run away a lot while out at stores or the mall(thanks to dada for chasing her around whenever we were out). Shes calm down a lot but will still do it once in while. I feel guilty because she will ask me if I’m...

I live in an UPSTAIRS apartment. A couple months ago we had a new neighbor move in downstairs- a single mom. She would play music at the highest level from 8pm-5/6 am in the effing morning. This happened EVERY DAY! We lasted 2 weeks till my husband called the office and put in a noise complaint. That exact same day ...

My daughter just turned three. She’s been doing this since a baby. She grabs any bottle of cream and plays with it. Destin mainly. I can hide it and she finds it. It’s ridiculous. My son busted his lip open and she found his cream for his lip and went painting. That was up high. She climbed her way to find it. I...

It hit me today. I’ve been bitching about my husband. Our love languages are different. He is acts of service and mine is quality time and physical touch. It’s been causing issues but it just hit me. I am so lucky. He pays attention to everything about me. If I order food at a restaurant he’ll tell the waiter to exc...

Don't get me wrong, my husband does a lot. He works full-time but does a lot during weekends. Baby's exclusively breastfed, so I do all nights (and barely get any sleep) but he tales her out on walks so she can sleep or entertains her so I can have break. He does the dishes and cooks etc. He does a lot. But man, t...

Every single time my daughter sees my in laws she ends up poorly! They live in filth and I refuse to go there so they come to us but it can’t be a coincidence that every single time she sees them she’s got some sort of virus after!

I am just so miserable and feel like I can’t make it the rest of the way. I am 38 weeks and 4 days so I know I’m close. But I have only been getting like 3-4 hours of sleep because even laying down my back is in so much pain. I cramp all day and night! I have reflux. Then because I’m not sleeping I’m beyond tired so...

I just found out i’m pregnant again, i have a 7 month old and it’s just me and him while my partner works- he’s a chef and works 9am-12am most days- i can just able handle everything with my son and dealing with housework. I’m stressed knowing i’m pregnant again and don’t know what to do. I’d be struggling to juggle...

My 22 month old is definitely going through it atm. Now I know it’s normal, he isn’t being naughty on purpose, he’s testing limits, he’s dealing with big feelings etc but I am not handling it well. It’s just me and my boy, no support no family. I really need some tips or advice on how to deal with kick offs over ‘si...

My son is 7 months old and hates car drive unless I sit in the back. He cried all the way to Asda the other day no where for me to stop and comfort him. Please help, even when my husband sits at the back he hates it. I usually only take him out to run errands when he is milk drunk. I am starting work soon and wou...

Not sure why I’m writing this post other than maybe for others to relate. I’m a mum of 2. Youngest is 3 and eldest a teenager.. I decided to give up work last sept to be at home with him. Some days are great and we do lots but other days are hard and longgggg. I have no career (I’m 37) and honestly have no idea ...
