Annoyed or upset by the new govt guidance on screen time?

I felt bad anyway when I needed to resort to teletubbies to cook or clean up....now I feel even worse.
Home alone, no village, no nursery and no nanny or babysitter in this house...I do everything! I'd rather have half an hour quiet time twice or three times a day so I can do things...
Also I guess adults can't watch their favourite sports or the news or anything anymore huh.
Parenting these days is hard enough...

Ok so I get them saying maybe no iPad or whatever but what if they're watching what your watching during tummy time say? I always have the yv on as background noise anyway

Friends?!?

So I've been on this app for a hot minute. I've talked to alot. Connected with even fewer. I am a full on mom. I have makeup..but do it sparingly. I let my hair do it's own thing most of the time. Putting pants on that don't stretch is a chore I don't need in my life. Fashion is ok but I choose comfort. I choose coffee and herbal teas over most alcohol these days. I do love a good glass of red wine thought. Hehe. I love dark humor. I laugh when I'm not supposed too. I am awkward and think my jokes are funny when they are not. I also have anxiety that I contestantly fight. I cuss like a sailor and I'm NOT an esthetic mom or perfect. I make mistakes daily. I also read alot including, but not limited to, dark romance and I have long before booktok became a thing. If I sound like your cup of tea with most of my flaws out on the open, message me. Peace love and health to yall.

Need advice

Me and my partner have been together for quite some time. But throughout my pregnancy He really started, just letting me down. Not being the partner I needed and not really being supportive. So during that process I've kind of just like started losing feelings and having resentment towards him. Rcently, he started work again. Which means I only see him once a week. And sometimes not even that, so it's just me and the baby.
So, any advice on how to like bring the spark back in our relationship, or if it's even worth fighting for? I love him and I want this to work, but I just don't know what to do.

Anti-social

Hi, has anyone become very anti-social during their pregnancy? I am 37 weeks now and I just don’t want to speak to anyone other than my husband and 4 year old. I am usually very social and love having family round so this is not like me! Has anyone else experienced this in pregnancy?

AITA

We have 3 kids under 5 including a 4 month old.

We have had discussions about increasing intimacy which i have been really trying. I have gone through quite bad ppd and plays and I also have severe endometriosis and had had issues with contraception so I was bleeding for abiht 12 weeks pp.

I have been giving it my all. On friday he got a bj without asking and because he was sick, I ran around him, feeding him making him honey lemon teas etc.

Saturday was crazy, our son was acting up and it was.overall a really strwasful day coupled by the face that our 2 year old vomited twice on friday night so we had very little sleep and I was up with the baby as well. He asked for sex and I said that I didnt feel up to it and now (sunday) I am being punished big time. Attitude, being told to go away, that he's done with me, that I'm never there for him.

So am I in the wrong? I agreed to work in intimacy but now I feel like I can't say no or I'm going to get punished even though je got some the day before???



Edit- Its just getting worse, hes now saying that we are over because i said no and apparently that was me stopping trying and 'he really needed me' I tried to explain that I was on limited sleep from the night before and our son had been really hard all day (possible serious adhd) and I was exhausted. Hes now saying hes going to go have sex with someone else and take a picture to rub in my face

Anyone looking for just friendship?

Is anyone looking to make non-flirty friends? I’m happily married and hoping to find a friend with a similar 2 mom family dynamic, but not looking for anything other than friendship at all. We live near Huntsville but open to texting friends anywhere. No shade to the people looking for dates, it’s just not what I’m looking for.
