Help!

Just looking to see if anyone else is really struggling with their toddlers behaviour, my son is extremely defiant at the minute and lashes out a lot by biting us to the point where he draws blood, kicking and smacking, this is mostly aimed at his dad and we are both really struggling with it mentally.

He is extremely clever and communicates really well but it seems he can’t control his temper and actions.

Any tips or advice from anyone who may have experienced the same would be most welcome! 😩

My Son isn't so much physically aggressive but he is defiant and ignoring things I say or ask. I try to reason with him. Let him finish with the toy he's playing with then come and do as he is told but it has ended in a screamy tantrum every single day this week. Its like he sees me and wants to fight 😩 he also has adopted this horrendous screechy whinge and it makes me instantly ragey . Like he can't hear me I can't hear myself and we can't communicate. It goes on for 20+ minutes. He's been put in his room essentially in a time out til he shuts up 😳😂 but my god
It . Is . Relentless

Antibiotics and breast milk.

Has anyone taken antibiotics and noticed that it has affected their breast milk? I have been on antibiotics for a week (4 a day) and every time my baby has breast milk she is immediately sick afterwards and cranky. (This was never an issue before being on antibiotics), so I have been pumping and pouring away my milk (which is soul destroying) until I finish the tablets. She has been having formula instead and isn’t being sick with that at all and seems much more settled.

Would it bother you? Hubby never finishes.

So my husband doesn't finish. Not for birth control but he just doesn't finish, he says he can go a really long time before actually finishing. He can finish as we have a child together.

It's never bothered me enough to cause serious problems in our relationship. Sometimes I wonder if I'm good enough in bed? He says he just gets tired. I've only ever been with two guys, my ex and hubby and my ex never had an issue with it. Hubby says he likes it and we have a healthy sex life as in we have sex regularly.

Just wondered if it would bother you or am I overthinking it?

I know it's different for everyone but what age did your baby start sleeping through?

Travel pram

Has anyone used any of these prams? I want to make sure the seat sits upright fully and isn’t really flimsy that my son could fall out but I know these are cheaper prams as I can’t afford a lot so keep looking on marketplace etc

AITA

So my due date is in 10 days but obvs we don’t know when the baby will actually come. Anyway, my SIL is also pregnant (after 10 years of infertility) and I am so happy for her when I found out because the doctors had said they may never conceive. So she has her gender reveal on the 26th of April (which would be almost 2 weeks after due date) in either case I wouldn’t feel comfortable attending while newly postpartum and with a newborn baby where there will be lots of people I don’t even know, I said to my husband he should go just with my daughter, which he agreed but mentioned she might feel a certain way. I mean she needs to sort of be understandable, I just don’t want to put my baby at risk, and after I gave birth last time I made myself very unwell thinking I’m okay to go out and about earlier than I should. On top of this, she shouldn’t feel a certain way because in our culture it is crucial for the mum and baby to not leave the house for 40 days, and she knows this. Anyway I don’t think I’m being an Asshole, I just don’t want to put my baby at risk and especially because people from my country don’t know boundaries when it comes to babies (kissing them, holding them, passing them around)
