I don’t like my birthday celebrated but u love it when my husband says happy birthday 🩷 that’s messed up your his whole world he needs to treat you better I think it’s uncalled for

Happy birthday! If you know 100% he’s got nothing planned ring a gf and go out tonight for your bday. Leave him at home w the kids and say you’re going to celebrate your bday w a friend 💃🏼👠 Make your night how you want. Don’t rely on him to give you your happiness.

Needing advice

I just found out im pregnat with my partner again

I have other kids that arent his

Is it wierd he says to me he always need to have the weekend at his house with his kids because he needs a break from my other kids, but he tells me he wants to be with me forever and stuff but says he needs a break am i just overreacting

Screen-Free

Any other moms doing no screens? How do you get anything done or deal with the crying?? I feel like I never get a moment for myself or to even do things that need to be done like cleaning or cooking. My baby loves to be held all day but hates carriers. No judgement please! We are trying to do no screens for the first two years. Sometimes I have to just let him cry for a bit while I do something for myself and it feels awful. And let's not even get into the screaming in the car...I don't know if it's true and I feel kinda bad for saying this but I feel like screen-free parents just deal with a lot more crying 😞

Male nursery worker

Am I being unreasonable? I feel uncomfortable with a male nursery worker changing my daughter’s nappies. I was told he was “helping out” for a day? But no explanation was given. Can I raise it with the head without being seen as problematic? To be completely honest, I found it unsettling and odd he just appeared out of the blue..

Curious about the screen time epidemic

Tell me what your family does

Does anyone homeschool toddlers 2-3 years old?

If yes can you share what resources you are using, where you find them etc…

Partner struggles

Has anyone else's relationship with their partner struggled? My little ones sleep has gotten really bad so my partner sleeps in the spare room as hes up at 5 for work and I breast feed anyway. And then in the day he will do the babys dinner if I ask, or have him while I have a shower if I ask etc. But he just doesn't seem that interested. I feel like I'm the default parent and basically just have to do everything and carry the mental load while his life has barely changed. Weve discussed it a few times but nothings really changed. Basically I feel like our relationship is on the edge and I know its just because we're in the trenches a little at the moment with the baby. Not really sure the point of this post 😂 but just wondered if anyone had experienced similar?
