Covid day 3

Today is quarantine day 3. Must be lying if I say mental health is fine. But nothing is more precious than this little bugger sleeping on me. Motherhood rly slows ur whole life pace down.

Anyone know of any WFH positions?

Hey ladies does anyone know if any companies hiring remotely ? I’m supposed to be going back to work at the end of June and I’m having panic attacks about it. I wouldn’t mind doing remote work 😅

Partner and sex

Im not happy with my partner at the moment. Im not quite sure what I am supposed to do about this. On Sunday night he wanted to have sex but I was absolutely exhausted, definitely not in the mood and just wanted to sleep. He kept pushing it and pushing it. He took my clothes off, tried to put it in me and kept touching me after I kept telling him no Im tired and not in the mood and he carried on. I then shouted at him and he stopped. I have had a few times in my life where strangers have took what they want from me so it was triggering to me and he knows this. Im so upset with him I haven’t been able to look at him the same. It’s a completely different story when he isn’t in the mood or tired though. He just expects me to do it regardless but when I want sex and he says he is tired or not in the mood I just leave it and go to sleep. He is never in the mood when I want sex but he seems to think that when he is in the mood he can just have it.

Companies with good maternity leave

I am currently on maternity and have only received SMP, we were able to save to make sure bills are covered but think if we were to have another this would be really tough.

I feel if its not advertised as a benefit asking about mat pay wouldn’t be ideal in an interview.

What companies pay above smp? Personally looking for those in northwest.

Father's day gifts

So ive just had a discussion with my partner about father's day gifts which had kind of ended negatively.

Our baby is only 3 months old so obviously too young to make/choose their own stuff to give him for father's day. I had some ideas of what to get him in behalf of our child but ive now been made to feel like its not good enough.

He basically sent me a link to some headphones he wants and said "ive sent u an idea of what to get me for father's day" . Now me typically Id get someone something like that for birthday or Christmas not father's/mothers day, for those occasions I would get something related to that event like a personalised keyring/cup/wallet/phone case etc that would have pictured of their child/ren. When I mentioned i was thinking cute personalised father's day things he didnt seem to thrilled and was like "what do i need a reminder that im a father with cute things when. I have our kid there thata a reminder everyday u know what dont get me anything"..... so now I feel like shit because it feels like my ideas wasnt good enough which has now made him not want anything. Am I in the wrong? Do I get him nothing? Do I get him what he wants or my original idea or do please both ideas do i get both?

Ride or die

So idk where you are but I need that friend that we can talk about stuff. Like girl I wanna know your life I want you to know mine. I wanna be able to talk and bond on our similarities and differences. I wanna be able to talk about our lives and days and just real and under the surface. Sincerely, just over days of shallow conversation.

First time SAHM

Being in my 20’s with a baby is not as relatable as I thought , stopped being able to connect to quite a few people since I found out I was pregnant , need mom friends that get it
