I feel like no one wants to meet my baby

Today was supposed to be the day part of my extended family meets my baby for the first time. She’s only met her grandparents, aunts, and uncle. But I found out yesterday that Easter get together was being canceled so they can go to some kids birthday party. All their kids are grown, so it’s weird to me that it’s a priority for them. Theirs been no other discussion about meeting her before the next family event (4th of July, she’ll already be 6 months old then). No other family on either side has contacted me or my husband about getting together to meet her besides my grandma. Am I supposed to be reaching out to them? No one’s even said anything to me since I’ve given birth. Idk if I’m over thinking this and I’m still just very hormonal, but I feel hurt. I don’t know what to do. I just want to do more things with my baby now that she’s 3 months old, including meeting all the people I care about. Any advice would be great, I’m not the best at communicating.

Have you thought about hosting a 100 day party? I hosted one and she was able to meet a lot of her cousins and relatives and they had a good time meeting her.
Sometimes people won’t reach out because they’re respecting your time and know that you’re busy with your baby.. or they’re waiting until your baby gets their vaccines because they don’t want to get your baby sick. It’s pretty hectic and tiring the first few months (for me anyway) so I appreciate the rest.

How many sexual partners have you had?

I’m in a community where it’s normal to wait until marriage, meaning that myself and many of my friends have only ever had one partner. I’m curious what people outside my bubble have experienced.

Pelvic Floor Exercises

My husband and I did the deed for the first time since I had our second baby and I can just tell I am just not as tight down there and it immediately humbled me🥲🥲

Are there any recommendations on a good YouTube video/channel that has pelvic floor exercises I can start doing??

why do men do this?

Why is it that men will treat you badly, disrespect you, belittle you, and the moment you try to leave they want to be together. I’m 37 weeks and so done with my bf. I don’t want the relationship anymore and haven’t for a while. I have lost feelings for him and he just annoys me now. But he doesn’t want to break up

Anyone Asexual?

I have pretty much struggled my whole adulthood with low libido and wanting to have sex with men. I don’t have any sexual trauma. I am attracted to them. I’m attracted a lot to my husband. No I’m not attracted to women even in the slightest. No sexual orientation confusion. I’m beginning to think that I’m asexual. I need help because it’s costing me my marriage. My husband wants sex way more than I ever do. If I don’t have sex for months I’m okay. Is anyone else asexual, if so, how are you combating it? Do you take any supplements to help? Did you speak to a therapist? What have you done to save your relationships when your husband thinks it’s because you’re no longer attracted to him? I’m so exhausted with feeling like this. I hate it. I wish I could desire sex the way a lot of women do.

Partner not lasting

Every time me and my partner have sex roughly once a week he lasts about 10 seconds and it’s staring to bug me now as I don’t get any pleasure from it at all . Does anyone have experience of this and know why this happens ? He doesn’t want to talk about it so the issue isn’t getting resolved .
