Teething question

My son is 3.5 months old and I can see his teeth. They’re little white bumps under his gums but they’ve been like that for a couple weeks and so far they haven’t come through but they’re *right there*. He’s miserable and I feel so bad. How long did it take for your little one’s teeth to actually come through?

Would this bother you?

So my Mum takes care of my bunny back home in Canada and anytime she picks up supplies I always pay her back within 1-2 days (takes time because of coming from a UK bank) she knows this... Yesterday she stated she picked some stuff up, so as usual I said I will be sending her money in 1-2 days to cover it. AFTER we had the convo I sent her a video of our son (her grandson) building a big tower out of mega blocks for the first time, she replied by sending me a photo of a receipt where she circled what I owe her... Again she knows and we already had the conversation prior to this, that as I ALWAYS do and have been doing for the last 2-3 years will pay her back. It bugged me because i was sharing a cute moment and she didn't even respond to what I sent and to top it off she hasn't video called him in 2+ months. Would this bother you? I would look at it differently if maybe I had a habit of not paying her back but I always do all the time and she knows this. It just pissed me off because the only time she ever sends a receipt is if I ask so I know how much to give her back.

Hard work

I have a 10 month old baby boy and he’s honestly such hard work constantly whinging, crying. Just sooooo clingy it’s a joke. I’m not starting to get fed up with him because it’s constant I need a break from him. I also have a 3yr old girl which she is an angel she’s such a good girl and always has been. She’s been nothing like what my boy has been like. Is it just a boy thing that are such hard work or am I just an unlucky one.

Do you agree? Unpopular opinion…Men can change.

Me and my husband have been together and over the last 3 years we hated each other. He was a horrible husband and only a fun dad. I was doing ALL the work. And we barely had sex I felt like I was BEGGING him, it was pathetic. I also am the breadwinner. I was tired of doing everything. I told him all the time I don’t feel like you love me or want me and that hurts the worst. I asked for a separation on Jan 28th 2026. I finally realized he does love me when that happened…he got a reality check when people started congratulating me. Since then he took over giving all 3 kids a bath, cooks 3 nights a week. Is taking our 3 and 4 year old to t ball and practicing with them everyday after daycare. Being a very active husband and father. We have been having sex consistently again and last night he told me I have been really sexy to him lately. I can’t tell you how good that felt. Do you think men can change?

Weaning while out? Help please! 🙏

I can’t wrap my head around how on earth I feed my baby solids when I’m not at home - does anyone have any advice/suggestions please?

Atm baby girl is having 1 solid meal a day around 11am after her morning nap. (We are moving up to 2 meals a day when she hits 7 months).

She’ll have something like porridge and fruit or scrambled egg with mash sweet potato and avocado (a mixture of spoon and BLW). I can’t figure out how I would take this sort of food out with me if I happen to be out with her at 11ish and also feeding her with the mess etc 😅 would I just change her meal time or is there a knack to it?? 🙏

First night alone with a newborn

My husband has just asked me how I’d feel about him staying away one night for work as he has an early morning meeting 3 hours away.

Our baby will be 2 weeks old. He hasn’t arrived yet, so I’ve got no idea how I’ll cope parenting as a duo, let alone by myself!

What would you do in this situation? Unfortunately it’s not possible to have anyone come and stay with me to help.

Puree??

I don’t normally use puree but I was given it so I tried it, he loved it but he only had half, do I have to bin the rest or can I use it for his dinner too.? It’ll be about 4-5 hours in between, he’s 6.5 months
