Meals
How many meals are you guys offering a day? Are you on whole milk yet, sticking to water, doing juice? And how much are you offering at meal time?
We haven’t switched over to whole milk yet but we’re doing water, 2 of her own meals during the day but she picks off whatever I eat as well. My girl can eatttt. For breakfast she had an 8 oz bottle than an hr later had a whole waffle, a whole egg and then a cheese stick. My daughter had always been on the smaller side and struggled gaining weight, so I’m a little worried she’s still not getting enough as she is still in 9-12 month clothes and just turned a year old last week.

I offer 3 a day, but he rarely eats much of anything so he usually eats snacks throughout the day. We’re finishing our last can of formula diluted with most of the bottle being whole milk when he wakes up and right before bed.
Hi! My daughter just turned one! We are doing half whole milk have toddler formula right now. We do only give her water right now for meals. We also give her what we eat. You’re doing great mama!
3 meals and snacks in between if she’s hungry. Whole milk for naps and bedtime, water in between. No juice.
3 meals, 7000 snacks (ok 3 snacks) and about 1 cup of whole milk a day
3 meals with Cheerios or puffs to start then always ending with either applesauce or berries plus snacks and still breast feeding and water with meals and during play time. No juice until 2yrs old I was told

Feeling Pressure to Spend Time with Partner's Family Postpartum
I'm 3 months postpartum and my partner expects me to spend more time with his family when he's not there because he's working.
There have been comments made from his mum to him and then passed on to me that they expected me to make more of an effort with them. Honestly, it's overwhelming and added pressure and awkwardness. I get on with them fine but the relationship feels forced and they are coming to see the baby and not for me, am I wrong for not wanting this? My partner and i had a argument because he doesnt understand how its fine for my family to visit, i tried to explain the dynamics are different and as much as my family want to see the baby they come to visit to check in and give support to me! Has anyone else dealt with these expectations, and how did you handle it?
I now feel awkward, pressured and alot of guilt on my shoulders because they're 'not seeing the baby enough to bond'. Now cant get it out of my mind and want to see if I am in the wrong for not wanting them over much and prefer to keep it to when my partner is around.

Is anyones husband/ partner actually stepping up post baby?
On Instagram your seeing all these post about husbands doing all the cooking, cleaning, food shop and looking after the other kids and allowing you to sleep, rest and focus on caring for the new baby..
Is this even possible. My husband helps but im still doing everything like usual. Im cooking all our meals, mowed the garden yesterday, hoover daily wash and hang the clothes outside. He is making our toddlers packed lunch for nursery and does the food shop but other than that everything is our usual. I havent had this waited on hand and food situation I see on socials 🤣😅😬

Advice on my situation 😩
I’m really struggling what to do I need advice or someone to talk to it’s killing me.
Couple months ago my baby dad went out he said he wouldn’t be back late and I told him not to do drugs as I don’t like it and we have a family anyway he didn’t come home till the next day as he was going drugs till silly o’clock in the morning. I had a discussion with him about it saying it upsets me etc saying sorry I won’t do it aged then another couple he did the exact same thing again
On Friday night he went out for a couple hours then came home at 12 in the morning on drugs yet again and somehow it’s all my fault it’s me doing wrong he doesn’t see the wrong in his actions and that he’s hurting me doing it.
Am I over reacting or have I a right ?
He doesn’t help me with our baby at all
Yesterday he spent all day in bed didn’t come see our daughter never mind me .
I put my all into been a mum don’t get help and just get walked all over I don’t know how much I can take i rlly love him and I don’t want a broken family but he’s hurting me doing this all the time l.

SAHM problems
I’m a complete laugh. I don’t know what to do. I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with our second child. It’s been difficult for me to cook and look at food so we’ve been eating out quite a bit tonight. My fiancé felt the need to say I’m always asking for something and I expressed him. What do you mean he said food outside food he said this is a luxury in so many words and I’m ungrateful. He feels that being a SAHM is a job in so many ways . I constantly have to ask for things such as household items things for our daughter. I don’t get my hair done or my nails or feet . At this point I feel so uncomfortable asking for anything. And to add he said I could get a job . Idk what to do.

Boring.
Having to ask permission from my partner to go have a bath on a Sunday is insane. Yet he walks out the house when he likes to go smoke or plays on his laptop when he likes without a care in the world.
Told him to put the baby on the playmat so he can kick around his answer well all he does is cry and I hate the sound of him crying. It’s consuming…
Bear in mind football is on at 4:30pm and I’m gonna have to cook dinner and do bedtime routine.
Sorry just need a rant.

5 year old playing Teen Games
I am confused as to how there are so many parents letting there little ones play games rated for kids twice their age. Does it not concern you how this will affect your kiddo long term? What is it doing to their development?
