Starting cereal
Dr said I can start my baby on cereal. I got the gerber rice cereal. Is this a good one to try for baby first time with food?? And do I put it in her bottle or try using a spoon for the first time ?? She’ll be 5 months in a few days.

I started mine with the spoon and he though it was something to play with then about 2 weeks later we did carrot which is what I'm still doing. He loves the carrots he tries to take the spoon from everytime.
Gerber cereal is not a good one
k, so what is a good one?
Beech nut

DO NOT put it in a bottle

Just need to vent
I can’t stand my husband. I look at him and there is no spark left. His past has caught up with him causing us to be homeless and living paycheck to paycheck. I told him a month ago I wanted a divorce and he said if I filed he’d just rip it up because he won’t agree to it. He tried suggesting marriage counseling even though I’ve been asking for it for over a year and was told “only losers go to therapy.”
Our son recently got an autism diagnosis and he treats him differently now. Calling him “tismo” and saying comments about why couldn’t he just have a normal son. He has like stopped taking care of him and half asses it. The burnout is real. I signed our son up for daycare because I needed help and a break and was told I’m just lazy.
I really don’t know what to do. Getting married to this guy has cost me my career, screwed me financially, I no longer have my own car because he tried to fix my old car and it caught on fire one day while driving it.
My daughter who isn’t is can’t stand him. She told me the other day that she feels bad for me because I’m stuck married to him.
Idk what to do. I feel trapped being with him.

Do you love or hate ASMR?
I fucking hate ASMR videos why do all videos need to have things cracking crunching unwrapping tapping all kinds of shit. So many people seem to like it or just not care but I genuinely feel like I need to claw out of skin when I hear it. I’m usually a calm relaxed person so I don’t know why it sets me off SO easily

Struggling with asking for help
My husband and me have a clash when it comes to night shifts with baby and this is our third and it's still happening. He works and needs to concentrate in the daytime on his business so that we have money so he needs to be rested. I am mainly responsible for the "management of our home and family". Every night I have this expectation of myself to be with baby all night and in some cases only get like 2-3 hours sleep a night because "I am at home and could nap when baby naps" but on the other hand then lots of things won't get done and I will also miss out on daylight and some time for myself. Then when I come up to around 3 nights like this my sleep deprivation makes me irritated, moody, impatient and or cranky and that affects my relationship so then my husband offers to take the next night over so I get a full night's sleep again and it's super difficult for me to accept because when I see him getting irritated at the children after just a few min vs. that it takes me a full day I often naively think that the baby will be happier with me and I am responsible for his happiness but really when my husband makes his mind up, he takes amazing care of them.
Can anyone relate at all? Sometimes we get into an argument because of how personal or horrible I take some things and when the truth comes out, that the reason for it is sleep deprivation he accuses me of maliciously not asking for help and trying to be a hero instead of "making it easier for him to help me". I don't know why it doesn't feel easy though

Teething
Hey mama’s! For those that have teething babies, does it come with a runny nose? I just discovered she has one tooth at the top and two at the bottom coming in.

I feel like I'm a rubbish mum
Does anybody else feel like this?
I have mum guilt ALL the time.
My son is going through a phase of not eating any meals and it's stressing me out and I can only think it's because of how I've been feeding him maybe or mistakes I've maybe made?
I breastfed for only 5 months and whenever people ask me, a lot have said that it's not long at all.
I let him get filthy with food etc.
There are toys all over my house and my house is an absolute tip.
I'm finding his tantrums really hard at the moment.
He doesn't sleep through most nights
Am I the only one feeling this?
