What would yall do?

So a few days ago, I told my husband that we needed to separate because him not very participating in house chores him not giving you know the kids and my attention when he gets home. He’s always on his phone and him yelling at the kids all the time. He is now changing for the most part but he has done this before. We were going to do IVF I have all the medications. Should I keep them or just get rid of them ? I’m not sure what to do

I mean, I wouldn’t get rid of them, but I also wouldn’t believe a few days of changing.

Ya i would wait to make sure it’s going to be a long term change. But with guys like this unless they make a life change, It’ll only be temporary. You always having to threaten him to get him to help is not healthy. These guys now adays are so selfish. They think just because they work they’re free to be bums at home. I hope for your families sake that he truly is making it a habit to contribute to the family. His time and attention!

I wouldn’t bring more children into that situation personally. I’m living the similar. My husband does the house chores though

Literally sits on his phone all night from the time he gets home aside from when he’s cooking dinner

I don’t even sleep in the same room with him anymore

Mom guilt hitting hard tonight

My son is teething really bad right now, both sets of canines (top and bottom). We have been redirecting him to chews but sometimes he gets overstimulated and bites. I’ve been so sick and exhausted lately and today he tried to bite me so I pushed him away slightly and gave him a tap on the back to get his attention that was a little harder than I intended it to be. He burst into tears and just stared at me so heartbroken. I think it scared him.

Later at bath time, he’s all cuddly, wants to splash and play like always. Wanted to be rocked and held to sleep. He is the sweetest little boy and I was so overcome with guilt I burst into tears. It took forever for me to calm down even though my husband was reassuring me that everything was okay.

I feel like such an asshole. I grew up in a very abusive household and I always promised myself I would never lose my temper with my son. I hate that my mind keeps trying to rationalize it with “I’ve been so tired and so sick”, and at the same time trying to make it into a bigger deal than it is. Having postpartum anxiety makes this so much worse and I just keep ruminating on it.

Nursery 14 months

Does anyone else’s toddler go to nursery? I’m starting mine in 2 weeks not for any reason in particular I just think it would be good for him while I’m at work for 2 days to instead of being with my mom for those 2 days being out and in an environment where they are doing more. However, it’s giving me such anxiety I’m crying already. Is he still too young or is this a good age? I know people having LO’s younger than mine that go I’m not silly but I’m starting to just feel guilty for sending him.
