Husband things it's only HIS money.

Hello. I have one question. I am SAHM and my husband works earning around £4000 a month after tax. He gives me £600 every month to cover groceries and household items which normaly cost around £500 or £550. We have two children aged 5 years and 10 months. So nothing much left for my personal spending without me going back to him and asking him for more money, which is most of the time met with lots of questions and me feeling like a child asking a parent for pocket money. Like I need to be scared to buy anything without him judging me. I do not have access to his bank account and therefore to any family funds what we hold. So I am just asking if this is a normal standard situation for SAHMs or should I demand joint access to his accounts and equal right to spend? Obviouly with common sense. Every big purchase would need to be discussed. But me for example wanting to buy new clothes or in need of personal items without me going to him asking for "permission". What should I do? His opinion is that he works and it is his money. So what about me? Am I not doing enough don't deserve to feel like an equal partner? Don't I have any rights? How are you handling finances as SAHM ?

Starting solids opinions

Is anyone else struggling with the amount of comments and getting told what we should do for starting solids? my baby is 5 months and iv been getting told to feed him at 4 months. Everytime people visit now it’s “have you fed him yet” or “he needs food” I honestly think i’m going to stop visitors for a whole months

Nursery

Hi all,
Just picked my LG up from her 3rd and last settling in session with nursery and the last 2 times we’ve picked her up, she’s been inconsolably crying. Do I ask the nursery if they think she needs any more settling in sessions or do I just hope it gets better when she starts going full time? She’ll be going 2 full days a week so she does need to be comfortable with them.

They said they think she’s tired when I did hand over but since we’ve got home she’s back running around my living room playing and being her usual self. In the car she did look tired and she’s had a cuddle and bottle since.

Baby dad destroying my things

I was done with him a few weeks ago he doesn’t see his child apart from maybe 1 hour on a Sunday occasionally he just demands everything back he ever got me the whole 4 years I knew him or pay him back all he got me was some clothes and a 1.2k car which I need to transport our daughter around
I said I’ll pay you back if you really need it )he doesn’t he makes 4 k months) everything else he ever got me was destroyed long ago after any argument we had by him

He said fine I’m not giving you any money for our child till you repay me 4k ) I am on universal credit and get 800 to live on)
Like that money is for our child… not me he’s so selfish
Anyway I work up today he came in the night to slash all my tyres and cut the battery off..
So i now have no car to take me daughter to appointments and nursery.
He’s so so selfish and evil I asked him why he did that he said it’s my car fuck you

Potty training a boy

I’ve started potty training he’s peed multiple times and pooped once. And seems to know when I put him on the potty he should pee because he tries to every time. But the issue I’m having is him knowing when he has to and letting me know. Sometimes he will with poop but it’s usually while he’s actually popping. I don’t know what to do to get him to realize he has to go. Appreciate any advice or tips!😊

How would you feel towards them???

If you had been arranging a surprise party for over a year, meaning these people had a year in advance to plan time off or literally anything else, only for them to cancel one by one the same day you confirmed they’re available, how would you feel towards them?! Two are saying they used the time off for various family members emergencies. One doesnt know if they can, because heaven forbid they actually write one weekend off for a friend of a lifetime, over his girlfriend of three years. Another is apparently changing jobs and can’t take time off(yeah because you definitely cant ask when starting a job for time off🙄(I’ve personally done this and never had an issue)). And his very best friend? Apparently having heart issues out of no where at 28 years old, and what would you know, the only day they can do his echo is literally his best friends birthday… *(Keep in mind, we have a child who has had OHS ourselves. We aren’t strangers to heart issues). Would you want to find out you possibly have a heart issue on your best friends bday out of any day of the year? Not only that but its a milestone. He turns 30. Most of them do this year too. It was supposed to be one last weekend hurrah but instead they all decided to flake at literally the last possible minute. I genuinely hate these guys. Ive known them since HS. I figured they would at least show up. Nope. I tried. I did. I tried… Because of them all the plans are ruined.
