So my son father got fired from his job at Amazon in January I been working to pay all the bills $1200 rent and other bills by myself he been looking for jobs & haven been able to find one I been helping him look for jobs and I got him three interviews tomorrow… I been working by myself while he sit at home and watch my son he just now applying for unemployment when I been told him to in January I been buying groceries every week so everybody can eat he’s been catching attitudes with me staying downstairs all day until 6am and when I go in the bedroom he leaves out over small arguments and blocks me on social media while I’m paying everything and helping him find jobs because I’m tired of helping him and all he’s giving me is attitude I’m thinking about looking for a cheaper apartment for me and my son & putting my son back in daycare and moving on plus I shouldn’t be handling all the bills for almost 4 months now I told him I could least get a little bit of “respect” for helping you get interviews and paying all the bills and other woman would’ve left by now.

I think going out of your way to cancel the interviews would be really petty. If you just want to do ur own thing do it and stop helping him since he doesn’t appreciate it.

Nursery pick up

Just wondering what I’m doing wrong or if anyone else is in the same boat ☹️

My son absolutely loves nursery, however whenever I pick him up as soon as he sees me walk into the building he screams the place down, smacks me multiple times and throws himself around when I try to pick him up him up and comfort him. It just makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong, all the other mums have their kids run up to them for a massive hug and they happily go off with their mum but with my son he acts so different, it’s so embarrassing and I’ve had a few dirty looks for it, I honestly feel like crying everytime we leave the building, I just don’t know what to do, as soon as we get home his back to being my best friend again☹️

Was this rude and immature?

My brother, his partner and their baby came to visit us. We cooked fajitas. When my brothers partner got here she asked what we had for lunch. We told her we made fajitas. She started whining and complaining saying she doesn’t want that, and that she want rice and proper food. So much so that we put some rice on the cooker and my husband went out to buy her some plantain which we fried for her. Was she rude and childish for this?

How to give to 7m old??

So how would you give a sausage to a 7 month old? Solid starts says this but for example we have sausage and roasted veg quite a bit in our house as an easy dinner (fresh veg as well which is mainly what our baby has) but I like him to be able to do it himself - so am I being right that the only way you can give sausage is crumbled???

I swear my daughter was munching on whole sausages but I could be way ahead of myself here!!

MIL making weird comments...

My mother-in-law and I have a good relationship overall. In fact, my baby, my partner, and I are currently living with her temporarily. She has welcomed us very warmly and been quite supportive. She's not the most maternal person I know tho, that's for sure. Besides my partner, she has another son, an 8yo, and seeing how she is with him helps me understand a lot about my partner and his avoidant attachment style (since she isn't very loving and caring.
But my problem is that she uses a language I don't like when referring to both her son and mine. For example, sometimes she tells her son he's being an idiot when he's tired or hungry. Sometimes she calls him unbearable. She's never yelled at him, at least not in my presence, but I don't like that kind of language she uses with both her son and my baby. When she asks how did we slept, and we didn't sleep very well, she also calls him an idiot or unbearable, and it bothers me. I don't know how to deal with it because I don't know what to even say to her either.
But today something happened that upset me a bit. This morning, my baby was in his high chair, and she came up behind him, so he arched his back and I turned my head back to see her stretching his neck a lot. She came closer and, in a sweet tone, started running her hand along his neck, saying, "I'm going to cut your little neck, I'm going to cut your little neck!" My partner was behind me, so I didn't see his reaction. I was washing the dishes and I was stunned. I didn't know what to say because she said it in a playful or tender tone, but it didn't seem appropriate AT ALL. But she was saying it with such a sweet and playful voice, that I didn't say anything.
Has anyone else had to deal with a similar situation and can share advice on how to handle this?

Start of solids “baby weetabix”

Hi all, the pediatritian yesterday recommended us to start solids with the baby version of weetabix mixed with breastmilk. He said a specific name for this baby weetabix thing but neither me or my husband manage to remember. Anyone knows what this thing is???

How often do you say "I'm tired of this grandpa" or some other common chronicly online saying.

Admittedly I do this sort of thing often.
