Haven't given a multivitamin

It basically just occurred to me that I haven't given my son a multivitamin since he was maybe 18 months old. I'm now feeling insanely guilty as he's quite small too and doesn't have a great diet. Am I the only one that's forgotten? 😬😭

I don't bother. I wasn't given vitamins growing up and it's never affected me 🤷🏻‍♀️ In winter months I'm more likely to reintroduce them, but shall see how we go 😅

Maxi has never ever taken a multivitamin… because he won’t, he’ll either gag and throw it up or have a meltdown! Drs and nutritionist said not to bother and his diet is appalling

Thank you both. I feel better now!

I haven’t forgotten, was never recommended them by a GP and I don’t know if I’m convinced about the necessity of them. I’m reading the book Unprocessed People by Chris Van Tulleken now and it says that these vitamins are not really needed for healthy people. Unless there is medical deficit identified by blood tests and recommended by doctors, I don’t see the point personally. For some vitamins, too much is as bad as not enough, and because I can’t control and monitor it, I prefer to just focus on food

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!

Advice

Ok so I had this friend and she would always talk about how it was so embarrassing to post your face on tinder or any kind of dating/friendship platform because it makes you look desperate. This has stuck with me soo much over the years, I always post anonymously. I really want a friend just 1 friend that I can go out n do stuff with and we just click but I refuse to post my face on any friendship platform, also because I might see someone I know and I literally HATE the idea of that. I feel so stuck, because I’m not the type of person to go out a lot I go to work and come home and when I do go out to parks and stuff there’s literally never any moms that try to strike up conversation. I really wanna get on bumble bff to try it out but it makes it to where you have to post your face. PLEASEEE any advice would help. I get bumble bff go through the people and then I delete it within like 5 minutes because I see someone I know.
