We’ve argued more for sure, me feeling he is taking me for granted and him feeling I am sometimes judgemental of his parenting skills (e.g. he doesn’t think it’s necessary we need to be quiet once we are putting baby to bed so that baby knows it’s bed time and stays sleepy, says baby doesn’t wake so there’s no point, so he stomps around and uses normal loud voice 🙃) anyway, after we had an argument yesterday - because I finally got a break from baby to take a quick shower in the evening and he immediately shouted my name saying baby was hungry and needed me (I’d JUST breast fed baby for an hour and a half) and he didn’t bother to even sooth him properly cos he was playing X Box - so after that he then fell asleep on the sofa, for about 4 hours. I’d gone up to bed with baby by that point. It’s now 5.30am and I’ve just woken to my 4.30 alarm to wake baby and feed him and there my partner is in bed wide awake saying he can’t sleep. I feel internally furious. I am absolutely knackered having to wake to feed baby wishing I could sleep instead, wishing I could be the one to have had a 4 hour nap - but no, for some reason he is so tired he fell asleep on the sofa for 4 hours and now cannot sleep cos he slept so much!!!! He doesn’t even wake in the night yet he was that tired? Furious 🙈🙈🙈🙈 now as I write this feeding my baby he has just started loudly snoring away. Lovely. Anyone else finding their partner really annoying right now?????

Yes lots of resentment and irritations. I know he works but why does he seem more tired and moan about it in the evenings more than me. Theres still a lack of urgency, when i ask him to do something hes glued to his phone while doing it. Also found out hes had time to start reading a book on his phone, j dont have time to poo😩🙄😳

Your not alone ❤️
Hi guyss I’m in need of help PLEASE! I am a POC and before getting pregnant I had BPD ( borderline personality disorder), anxiety and major depressive disorder, ptsd and ocd. I am 27 weeks pregnant and my prenatal depression has been horrible. I’ve been crying so much and physically feeling like I’m losing myself . I have a therapist, I told my OB everything. I finally decided to take that step and get back (previous times 2019 & 2022) on meds. But now I see all of these things like it can hurt my baby. Please someone help I need to know is my baby gonna be okay. I only took half a pill. Is there any POC that can send some advice please. ( nothing against anyone but our brains are wired differently and doctors treat us differently as well) .

Any advice/tips on weeing after birth? I had my baby girl yesterday and I’ve got a second degree tear, very close to third degree. I’m in so much pain with going to the toilet. I’ve got a peri bottle and spritz for bits for after but has anyone got any other recommendations that helps the stinging? I’m drinking lots of water to make sure my urine isn’t concentrated too

How do people manage through the day with a baby who will NOT under any circumstance let you put them down for just one second. When she is being held she is silent/content/asleep but the literal second I try put her down on any surface she goes absolutely mental screaming and crying.
My baby literally does not sleep through the day - I’ve seen other posts saying similar but wow😵💫 Exhausting.

My baby naps downstairs during the day but is outgrowing his Moses basket and I don’t really have the room for a travel cot downstairs. I have a next to me crib upstairs in our bedroom as well as a cot in his bedroom but if I move him upstairs he doesn’t seem to go to sleep🫣🤣. Any advice or recommendations for what to use downstairs would be greatly appreciated🫶

First time mama to a 1 month old perfect boy!🩵
For the first 3 weeks of his life doctors ignored me about his symtoms and suspected CMPA (cows milk protein allergy) because im a "first time worried mum" It took for him to start pooping blood for them to listen!
5/6 days into him having his allergy milk, 8/10 of his symptoms have cleared up& i have a happier more content baby!🤍
