Me and my partner have recently spoken about extending our family and trying for another baby! I would really love another child and we always said we’d like to have more than one. I miss being pregnant, but I can’t help but feel guilty on my son. Is it too soon? How will I ever love another child as much as I lov...

My husband proposed sex tonight. We were watching a movie we have seen several times just chilling before we were gonna get intimate. I remember I hadn’t shown him what I had got for our daughter’s upcoming birthday and was really proud of the deals I had got. While I showed him he was obviously paying more attentio...

I've reached the point in my life where I feel like I need a completely new slate of support. Not that I really had it but I need to build a community for my son and I. My son will be 13 in August. I am a single mother and get so overwhelmed with the day in day out life. This means working full time, taking care of ...

Some of you may agree or disagree but I am beyond annoyed. I am due in October and my husband's brother and wife are also having a baby in May. The issue I am having is with their 4 year old. They let this boy do anything he wants and gets away with LITERALLY ANYTHING! Anything this boy wants, he gets. A toy in a st...

**will post the photos in the comments** So my BD respectfully has been useless and I’m running out of energy and options on how to deal with him, he’s weak minded and can’t make any choices himself, I have done the seven months of this pregnancy alone, he speaks to me every day like we’re besties but as soon as I...

Was talking to my hubby earlier about a friend of mine who’s husband was being unfaithful and he asked “would you be mad if I cheated on you? You wouldn’t want to share me.” (Note that he had an emotional affair about a year ago so he knows the answer to this) and I responded with “I’d be less worried about sharing ...

Hi! My little boy has just turned 4 months! Since 3 months he has been DRAINING 8oz bottles. He was always a very hungry baby and has always had a lot more milk than other babies ive known. Recently i really feel 8oz is not doing it for him anymore. He still seems hungry after his bottle and often cries 2-3 hours a...

Are yall kids in daycare? How can someone afford daycare ? I need a job asap .. I'm tired of struggling

I’m currently 37weeks pregnant and my PhD graduation ceremony is in early July. That means my baby will be just one month old by then. The university is 2hrs drive from our home. So it will be 2*2=4hrs car ride and then attending the ceremony. I’m wondering how to feed the baby as babies get hungry very frequently. ...

I’m 35 weeks and talking to my husbands about what life will look like when we bring our baby girl home. I made it very clear that immediate family only will be able to see the baby for the first week as I’d like to bond with my baby and get acclimated at home. I also spoke with him about setting time limits for fa...

My baby is in daycare half the time while his dad and I work. We decided to switch his day care. I was just kind of feeling like the one he was at was too dependent on TV, I never really picked him up and saw much engagement. I feel a lot better about the one we’re switching him to but I just feel bad about having h...

Is anyone else having trouble finding and setting up affordable daycare? It seems everyone I try is booked or way over budget. Anyone have any suggestions?

So my sister has always been super supportive about me homeschooling my girls....to my face. Last summer it leaked through a mutual friend that she doesn't agree with homeschooling and thinks my kids won't be socialized. I never confronted her about it because I wanted to protect the mutual friends for being honest ...

My partner tends to go on his games console on a Sunday evening with friends, not every week but 9/10 he will. Usually I’m fine with that after a weekend of parenting it’s nice to just switch off and have time to myself. We’ve been through a lot lately, it’s taken its toll on our relationship. We also had a conversa...
