Thoughts on working it out

Me and bd were never together but we’ve shared alot of experiences with my son . He’s was an sob during my pregnancy even after my son was born. But on another hand hes stepped up , helped me raise my lo as he should being extremely active in his life . Latety weve been flirting more often and he keeps calling me babe under his breath lol . Im weirded out by it .Our weekends are spent together more often then not but i think the icing on the cake is that hes starting to help me with my son after he gets off from work showering , bringing diapers etc (baby is 3) because i have no support where im at . I can navagate being a single mom because its all i know . However if he did right by me i wouldnt mind giving my child that sort of household ya know . I can count on him for anything and ive never had that before . After it all we have built a bond , a solid friendship. I need some perspective because i cant go to anyone else without them bashing him lol. Im saying i think because he has never come out to say anything. Just dropped some text for more of insight.

I say why not, maybe he’s maturing! That being said he still has to earn his keep in your life & your sons. Keep an eye out for red flags & set healthy boundaries, otherwise I hope it works out for yall 💜

You should keep on with your life. Don’t rush it. If it’s meant to be it will be. Love each other as much as you can right now as “friends” and see where it goes!

ok that’s good advice. Do you think i should confront him about calling me bae?? Lol! It’s sooo weird

If it actually makes you uncomfortable and you want it to stop yes. But if it secretly gives you butterflies in your stomach and blush a little, then just roll with it. You guys clearly have history and maybe exploring that chapter too. He might not even realize what he’s doing! Or he’s confused too. Unless he starts to refer to you as his girlfriend without a formal convo, then I would honestly just see where it goes. But Ofcourse as long as it’s not making you uncomfortable or unsafe

Tablet for kids

Alright don’t need any negative Nancy’s telling me not to get my 2yo a tablet so if that’s what your gunna do please don’t participate in my poll.

We’re about to move cross country 3+ day trip and my 2yo and 9m hate the car I’m talking scream their heads off till they are out of their seats. We’ve already changed car seats and it didn’t help so I’d like to at least have one entertained and sit next to baby and try and distract her or put her to sleep. Our new car has tvs but since they are rear faced my 2yo can’t see it.

Debating getting her a tablet or dvd player right now on long car rides I end up giving her my phone because I get so overwhelmed sitting in between both of them screaming and crying.

And yes I do bring different toys I bring snacks I play songs try to distract her other ways but for the sake of not losing my mind on this move I think this is best.

-A very overwhelmed and anxious to move mama 😓

My friend is over from another country but I don't feel like leaving the house

One of my old friend's is visiting where I currently live and we agreed to meet up today but I feel so tired and exhausted from everything that's been going on with me. I feel if I meet her I'm going to end up having another breakdown from the exhaustion which I have been having often. I'm just thinking about how I need to rest to be able to deal with my toddler and go back to work on Monday without feeling like I need another weekend. I'm torn on what to do so I need you guys to help me decide

Struggling

My husband works and does so much for me and my baby girl. However I get annoyed every time he hops on a video game he usually plays for 1-2 hrs if she's still awake and has like 3+hrs of free time once she goes to sleep (i co/contact sleep). The last time I was able to have actual free time was last month when I tried to turn some onesies into shirts for baby girl to sleep in- and I wasn't able to finish them and haven't picked them up since lol. The only free time I get is while she's napping right next to me where I can't move an inch or breathe too deeply or she'll wake up, or when I shower. Crafting used to be my outlet and now if I were ever to tell him that I need to craft I don't even know what I would do or where to start I just sit there and stare.... just losing myself and I'm struggling with it. Does anyone else feel the same way? What do I do?

Weaning

Hello mamas,could I get some advice please with how and what to wean as started this week with my baby but not really what to give and when what time day. Have started with puree vegetables and making them myself and offering it in the evening to my baby but she tends to get irritated and tired and has a few spoonfulls and then gives up and has a meltdown. So I’m questioning myself am I feeding her wrong time of day and what’s best to mix the food with milk or baby rice please.
