Do you usually listen to your body/intuition when you feel weird around someone or get bad vibes around someone?

I have had incidents in the past where my body had this involuntary feeling around certain people. I was unsure what exactly their intentions were during that time but I found out that my intuition was right. Except theh ended up being worse than I realized. A mutual friend told me about one of those people threatening to kill behind my back. (He went to jail for that after that) and the other person was a lady who was trying to get me in trouble when I was innocent. My social anxiety is off the charts after these traumatic experiences. There is someone else in my life now who gives off very mixed vibes. On one hand he is nice to my face. He seemed to have good intentions for the most part even if I didn't agree with everything he does. (We agree on a lot of things but he also does a lot of things that I don't agree with.) But now I am at a point where I feel panic anytime he is around me. I feel so judgemental but almost anytime that I ignored my intuiton and gave the people the benefit of the doubt it got worse. Its made my trust issues worse and made me afraid to get close to anyone whether it is a friend or family member or partner.

I can say the same thing! I’ll usually tell my friends before hand “something’s off about -“ and I’m always right..

Depends on who they are and if I need to be around them. I'm generally pretty closed off though

I'll say Im always 99.9% right whenever I get that uncomfortable feeling about a certain person. I always tell my husband and ask him of he got the same vibe. He usually doesn't but we've had several experiences where I have those feelings and I was right. My hsuband tells me to listen to it. The one experience we had were I promised myself to listen more to that feeling was when my husband and his group of friends who played DnD were joined by this other individual. From the day I met him I didn't fell comfortable and kept telling my husband something was off. I felt so uncomfortable it made me feel like dirty. It was so freaking weird!!
I even told my best friend to not let her kids near him. Good thing she listened to me. We moved from the area and months later my friend called me to tell me that creep was in jail for ab*s**g his nephew and niece and many other things that are common in that type of behavior. I promised myself to trust my instinct. Its a special gift!

Pampers nappies

Laugh if you like, I don’t know what’s right and what’s wrong! 🤣
So my mum mentioned that pampers used to do boy nappies and girl nappies. Is this true?

We went to Asda today and they have size 5 with a boy on the packaging, then a size 5+ with a girl on it. (Might be the other way round) but doesn’t actually say it.

We only started talking about this as now my boy is rolling, when he poo’s it’s going to the front of his nappy.

Thoughts?
Ps. Thanks 👀

I hate bedtime

FML this is shite. Separation anxiety, last minute requests for food/toilet/drink etc.
I can’t keep sitting with her while she’s falling asleep, she’s wasting my time!! Tonight it’s already been 90 mins. Help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

Please I need help now

10 month old daughter not feeling well is this normal breathing for her while she’s asleep she has a bit of a fever and has been awake for max 45 mins throughout day

I’m sorry but does anyone else find it secretly satisfying when …

When you were the first of your friends to have kids and they low key fell out of your life, never supported you, and ghosted you a little and now they’re having their first pregnancy and they start reaching out for help and advice.

My friend just called crying because her parents called her fat at 25 weeks pregnant (she looks normal). She was obviously very upset and I let her know they were assholes and not to worry.
My parents did the same thing to me with my weight and non of my childless friends understood or gave a shit.

Unable to put breastfed baby down

My baby simply will not be put down anywhere. I literally can’t get anything done at home or even care for myself without somebody here helping. I can’t even go to the toilet. He is either sleeping my arms or awake crying .

I am sat on the sofa feeding him every 30 minutes. He falls asleep. I transfer and then awake again crying. Same viscous cycle. He won’t take a dummy. Does anybody have any advice 😭
I have a toddler that I also need to look after

How do you teach a baby with high sleep needs to self settle?

Help!! Sorry for long post but I really need help.

My baby has been co sleeping since she was 5 months - she’s nearly 10 months now and every night she has a false start, and then again and again and again until I come to bed. For naps she will only fall asleep on me, or my mum or partner, so not in the pram or cot or car. She can occasionally be transferred off on to sofa or bed but usually this results in a short nap so I often contact nap still.
I know it’s the biological norm for babies to want to sleep near us, which I’m fine with, but the false starts every night are a real problem, it leaves me with no proper evening and up and down the stairs all evening. So I really need her to be able to self settle as she’s starting nursery soon so we can’t contact nap there (I’m going with her - nursery teacher) plus I’d like to start thinking about trying for another baby later on this year but can’t imagine sharing my bed with a big baby bump!
I’ve tried Ferber, chair method, pick up put down.

She has to fall asleep with her fingers in my mouth or pulling at my face. Won’t accept holding hand and isn’t the slightest bit interested in a comforter
