Am I feeding my baby too much?

For reference, he is 7 months old. An example meal of his is this morning for breakfast, he had 1 Weetabix and a whole small banana. He only left 1 or 2 mouthfuls. Is this okay? Or is this too much for his age?
I was sort of going by if he wants it, let him have it, but is that right? He's not being sick or crying of tummy pains or anything?

Preschooler told teachers I was not”the greatest mom” and never played with her or gave her kisses when asked Mother’s Day questions. Would you be upset too?

We play for hours everyday. I’m home with her and she said dad is best. I cried so much. Why would the teacher tell me that….

Am I being childish

So me & my partner went shopping ( I paid as usual 🙄)
He puts 4 multi packs of crisp in the trolly to keep in his car for work & I put 3 in for the household mainly my kids

Last night in his pack up he made was crisp from the household but my point is your WORK crisp are in ur car for soley you so then also taking them from the household is selfish

Advice needed

Me and my partner are first time parents I delivered our beautiful baby boy by emergency c section 2 days ago the first night in the hospital he was as good as gold didn't really cry even as the other babies on the ward screamed but when we brought him home yesterday he had the worst second night wouldn't stop screaming or feeding and my partner bless him thought he would try do it alone because of the fact I had a c section and was shattered

Now moving onto tonight he settled for about 2 hours after a bottle and then the screaming started again but it seems that he just wants to be held sometimes we've changed and fed him a few times but as soon as he gets out down he is screaming again

What I'm asking for is advice on if this lasts and how we break the only sleeps while being held if it could last or does that go over time and we should just try to hold him for the moment and once he's a little older he will be fine

Sorry if none of this makes any kind of sense I'm very tired

Being a SAHM

Is it me or does being a full time SAHM become very isolating?

What now?

Please, no judgement. I’m already overthinking. Okay, so I have a 4 year old boy with level 1 ASD, very high functioning. Today, at preschool pick up my husband saw that his teacher wrote us a note and another teacher (that isn’t his usual teacher) verbally told my husband that today my son said “I’m going to kill you” to one of his friends. The note said that she pulled him to the side and tried to probe at where he got that from or where/who told that to him, etc. Well, immediately when we found out, my husband talked to him on the car ride home and then I talked to him when he got home (I was finishing up with work) and just tried to probe a little more. My 4 year old said that another kid in his class was being mean to him and said those words and so he said it back. I told him that we don’t say that and there are other safer ways to express our feelings etc. Now, I’m immediately cutting back any screen time. He has like an hour or so screen time during the day, but now idk I’m going to be very strict about it. He only watches youtube kids (usually educational) and plays approved games. Has this happened to anyone else? What now? Therapy?
