Rash after eating mango

I tried my little one with a mango purée yesterday and she had a red cheek afterwards, then today she had a bit more and all her face around mouth and nose, and neck went really red (where the mango had touched the skin). I’ve had a google and it seems to be because mango is slightly acidic. Has anyone else experienced this? I’m a bit nervous to try her with actual acidic fruit now.

Do you think it’s just sensitive skin, or could it be an allergy?

Firstly, I would always raise concerns over possible food allergies with your GP. They can refer your little one for testing to check.
This sounds like either skin sensitivity or something called oral allergy syndrome. My son has this and we were advised to apply a barrier cream to his face before eating the foods he was sensitive to to avoid a reaction. 3 years on he doesn't seem to react as badly as before. If it is this it is rarely something of concern 😊

I found with my first anything acidic touching his face and mouth caused a rash for about an hour like it burned. I first noticed it with ketchup when he was nearly 2. Then it just stopped happening

I think that’s what it is because it did go after an hour! She seemed okay in herself! X

Is he in the wrong here or am I?

My partner of 4 years is not the father of my 3 children I have to my ex husband, my ex and I had a bad break up, things took a sudden nasty turn after a long rime together, dv, courts injunction but things u turned and he has a timetable with the kids now. He sees them every other weekend for just the day and some half terms but not too much really. He pays maintenance and he has for 4 years even when he couldnt see them. He called n said his changing jobs and he needs to pay 250 less this month and then for the next few weeks he will pay weekly instead of monthly and add some extra on so the 250 less will get paid back. My partner said if he cant pay he cant have them.. if he cant afford to pay this week properly he cant afford to havr the kids next week in half term. He asked for a Monday til friday with them, he wants to take them the cinema and trampoline park and to see family. I said child maintenance and his quality time with the kids are two seperate things just as what happened between me and him is seperate to how he is a father am I wrong ? Is he wrong ? What would you do ?

Potty training a boy

I’ve started potty training he’s peed multiple times and pooped once. And seems to know when I put him on the potty he should pee because he tries to every time. But the issue I’m having is him knowing when he has to and letting me know. Sometimes he will with poop but it’s usually while he’s actually popping. I don’t know what to do to get him to realize he has to go. Appreciate any advice or tips!😊

How would you feel towards them???

If you had been arranging a surprise party for over a year, meaning these people had a year in advance to plan time off or literally anything else, only for them to cancel one by one the same day you confirmed they’re available, how would you feel towards them?! Two are saying they used the time off for various family members emergencies. One doesnt know if they can, because heaven forbid they actually write one weekend off for a friend of a lifetime, over his girlfriend of three years. Another is apparently changing jobs and can’t take time off(yeah because you definitely cant ask when starting a job for time off🙄(I’ve personally done this and never had an issue)). And his very best friend? Apparently having heart issues out of no where at 28 years old, and what would you know, the only day they can do his echo is literally his best friends birthday… *(Keep in mind, we have a child who has had OHS ourselves. We aren’t strangers to heart issues). Would you want to find out you possibly have a heart issue on your best friends bday out of any day of the year? Not only that but its a milestone. He turns 30. Most of them do this year too. It was supposed to be one last weekend hurrah but instead they all decided to flake at literally the last possible minute. I genuinely hate these guys. Ive known them since HS. I figured they would at least show up. Nope. I tried. I did. I tried… Because of them all the plans are ruined.

Don’t know what to do. CPS

What do you do when you get a call at work saying your husband was arrested and your kids are being taken away from you.
House is empty. No laughing no crying. Don’t even remember the laugh or the coos from your baby before leaving to go work at 10. All because my step daughter said that she got hit by daddy with a baseball bat while sleeping. And my son who is 2 fell down a flight of stairs in a walker while I was away at work. Police, homeless shelter managers and my sister in law and mother in law came thank god I called them.

Everything is finalized till next week Wednesday. What do you do?

I can only hope and pray and go to work and pray my babies get back to me…

Partner/Husband Support

So many women seem to have the same problem of their partner thinking being a sahm means they do not contribute to the home or kids. So many women, even the ones who work, seem to be carrying the load of running the family with men who although supportive have to be given instructions on what they are to do. It’s quite interesting.
Do your partners do pretty well with helping? Are any of you in a relationship where now u feel u want to end things because you see your partner has a unrealistic expectation of rearing children and maintaining a home? Is it how you thought things would go? Did you and partner overcome this challenge?
