Partner didn’t get me flowers for Valentine’s Day??

Every year he’s got me them, this year 0 flowers & he got a me a card with like 4 things written in it 🙂

Not being ungreatful but it’s just like where is the EFFORT. Even cheap flowers from sainsburys ANYTHING.

Pregnant with his 2nd baby and I just feel like I deserved more ?

Anyone else? Or am I being petty

Yeah I'd ask him what's going on, just say what you've just said to him. See what he says 😬 x

Yeah. My partner was the same. I made the effort, got him a card & a few other bits and ended up with nothing back. Had a pretty crappy day, and it made it worse seeing all these other women getting cute gifts and flowers x

Do you both typically celebrate Valentines?
I’m pregnant with first child and didn’t get flowers for the first year out of 3, however we are due to go away, and also both just think it’s a pointless day. If you truly love someone, you shouldn’t need to prove it just because it’s valentines but that’s just my opinion, no hate on anyone who does like the day & participates.

I do appreciate it can be upsetting if you have an expectation to receive something and don’t. I’d ask him openly about it, maybe he just forgot or had a good enough reason not to get any? Honesty is the best policy after all 🙏🏻 Xx

Me and mine usually don’t put extreme effort into Valentine’s Day we tend to go to a shop the night before go our separate ways and put a little something and a card together then on the day gift eachother and have dinner together or go out for dinner then watch movies when home, the night before I said ohh we need to go to a shop I need to get you a card and he said oh I don’t need a card it’s fine which upset me I turn as I knew that means he was not bothering either, we have just been through ivf and I’m 22weeks with our little boy, I cried a few times yesterday and he finally said what’s wrong I admitted I was a little disappointed as this valentines is extra special I’m carrying out first and possibly only child and feel we should have been putting the effort in and I didn’t because he seemed to be acting like he was not interested in celebrating at all, he then suggested going out for dinner which we did but it felt kind of forced because it had took me getting a little upset 😫

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers

Vitamins?

Does anyone do vitamins for their one year old?
Just seeing if it’s worth trying as the never ending colds and illnesses are battering our house 😂
