Hi really random , has anyone had a situation where your partner is the last sibling adult in the house and has it ever caused problems? Because he argues with her constantly to the point it started to sound like she wants ownership over everything he does . He can’t do anything without her getting pissed off . Or h...

Husband and I started a business and it’s already taking off. It’s going extremely well and I cannot stress how grateful I am for this to be happening. But omg I am so tired I can’t even think! I stay home with our twins; cook, clean, educate, make appointments, you know- all the SAHM stuff. Husband has a career...

I’m currently almost 5 months pregnant and I have a 2 year old and I’m struggling with my energy levels. I’m a stay at home mom/wife and I’ve been feeling so much guilt for not having the energy to keep my toddler entertained and being as present as I used to be. I feel like all my energy goes in to keeping the hous...

Honestly I’ll never post incognito for an opinion like this, but I keep seeing yall post on this app about your men, and they sound so fucking irritating to the soul. I just got done reading a lot of your stories and oml I think I’m going to pass out. How do you not hate them? Attached: the chocolates my man got me...

My daughter is 14 months now, is anyone else’s around this age having bad tantrums? I get it more at home where it’s just tantrums when she doesn’t get what she wants, screaming, pulling doors for more snacks after she’s had god knows how many and proper meals, flinging herself on the floor but today has been out an...

Is this a thing? I was a stay at home Mom. Now they are grown.

I’m SAHM, he helps 5-10% with child care and household. Even though he works from home. Today is Saturday, he’s off work, this morning our toddler was having tantrums and crying for a bit. As I was changing his explosive diarrhea, my husband comes in (I was relieved he was up and thought he heard the screams and wa...

I’m worried about my toddler and even more worried now what I read online. My toddler tends to love hugging strangers and would go and grab on them or want to be picked up by them. Online apparently this is Disinhibited social engagement disorder (DSED ) and it’s caused by a lack attachment to caregiver . Does thi...

Our little one won’t settle for my husband he would for about a week and has now gone back to not settling and it’s driving me mad because I can’t even shower. Anyone have any tips? He tries to sling him cuddle him tries putting him down but being near and he just won’t settle until I hold him again 😭

I’m ready to start working out again and I took my baby to the gym daycare for the first time today. When I picked him up they told me he cries the whole time (an hour) and he was doing that breathy sob thing when I got him in my arms) I understand there is an adjustment period. That said my son (11 months) is very...

Anyone else’s baby goes to nursery 4-5 days per week? Feel so bad as my friends babies are only going 2-3 days. My little girl is 15 months old. Being back to work 4-5 days per week give us better start financially. We have no family support in terms of help look after my daughter, just me and her dad, she likes the...

When I tell y'all I am tired and just downright ready to give up. This has been the hardest few weeks of my life!! It's just me and my kids, I don't have any family, no friends, my kids father hasn't helped financially since we separated. I work full-time, I don't get help with absolutely nothing. I pay everything a...

feel so heavy. Lost, lonely. I am always upset, angry, or sad and crying. I eat because my body needs to, but have no taste for anything. I don't feel for anything. The motion to keep going is harder and harder. I do not see the end point. I know my children needs me, but they need a better version of me. I'm in a...

Hi, I'd really appreciate some opinions on this. I feel like my partner just follows me around observing rather than actually participating in things. Like we went to the beach a few weeks ago, and he just sat there with his socks and shoes on and didn't really do anything while I showed our daughter the sea, took h...

How often does ur partner help if his working . Do u always have to tell him when to go out with kids and what to do , all the time ??? Honestly I’m getting fed up raising a 3 child. Also I feel like he isn’t a morning person and so we usually argue alot . I’m over stimulated and have other health problems . But hon...

My little boy is 2 years and 7 months. He is so sweet and funny but my god his energy levels are crazy! I know you're not supposed to entertain your kids 24/7 and it's okay for them to get bored. But I feel like if I don't plan things with my son and have activities planned when we're at home he just wants to climb ...

Took my lo (20mo’s) to the park and she was waiting patiently to go on this spinny thing. A girl (8/9) was on it, then jumped off, but as soon as my daughter started to go towards it, this horrible little girl ran and jumped on it again. She did this 5/6 times and it was really starting to PMO. What do you do in tho...

I wanted to separate for many reasons, I told him I forgave him but I am broken and I don’t think I can’t do this marriage anymore. (We have tried to reconcile, but I could not) I normally bring my kid to sleep with me on the bed so he can have the kids room, (he works night) - so this Friday i forgot. So my ex c...

Before we had a child, my husband was incredibly sweet and romantic—our relationship was full of affection, tenderness, and that lovey-dovey magic that made me feel so close to him. But ever since we became parents, something in his attitude shifted. Now, when I ask him to do something, even in a normal tone, he sna...
