TV vs 90s/00s TV

i’m so passionate about this subject i hate that tv isn’t how it used to be and i hate the changes that are happening
I think it’s such a shame that TV then used to be real TV real props/scenes rather than animated or cgi stuff,
it used to be calm slow paced and we were offered less of it because there was no such thing as streaming services back then
and now you’ve got Netflix Disney YouTube BBC iPlayer and you get given anything you want to watch, whenever, for however long u want, i just think it’s so sad because now my children they do watch this kind of stuff that’s fast paced and bright colours and music playing in the background and loads of things going on in one scene it’s just overstimulating there are not many shows that aren’t overstimulating and it’s so hard to avoid them even so

Tell me I’m not losing my mind

So my man and I have been fine but recently he’s said we’ve been distant but idk what he means cause yes i work when he’s home and when im off he’s away for work like yeah there’s distances but at the same time when he is home he’s not he’s out with his friends barely home and when he is he just lays there and doesn’t really talk to me and so I decided to dress up for him today and he looks at me and was like why you dressed up I said for you and he was like why wdym cause I wanted to look nice for my man idk I just thought that dressing up would you know idk make it seem like we’re distant like idk what he even means by that and I’ve asked him and he’s like idk well we can’t be something that you don’t even know idk if that made since tbh I haven’t felt the distances so idk maybe I’m just blind or something plus like my body hasn’t been corporating cause I’ve basically been on my period for the past month so when he is home and wants sexy time I’m like no cause I’m bleeding I’m not now and that’s one of the reasons I felt like dressing up because I actually feel good with myself plus a couple of people at work last night looked at me and told me it looks like I’ve lost weight so it has me feeling good about myself. Idk I feel like I’m just in my head and spiraling

How would you respond

So im dealing with my husband's grandma trying to over parent and she also feels entitled to see our son. We have told her on countless occasions that technically she has no rights to our kid and that its not her place to guilt trip us into anything. My husband and I are moving but its hard for us to pack when she keeps picking fights. Im also 24 weeks pregnant with my second child, my first is only 7 months old. What should I do because me and my husband are to the point of telling her she won't see him after we move? Just telling her I was laying him down for a nap and not handing him to her made her cry.

High libido

Hey mamas, I’m currently 2 weeks pp and all I want is my partner. In every way but mainly sexually. Everywhere we go and every second I just want him in that way. I don’t want to tell him because I don’t want to let him down if this changes. What do I do??? Help

Kissing my baby

Am i being dramatic?

My mother is obsessed with my 11 week old boy, understandably as he is the first grandchild.
She does however get regular coldsores, so i have asked her nicely not to kiss my baby’s face or hands (as he puts them in his mouth).

She keeps ignoring me, my brother calls her out and tells her not to when i have my back turned and it drives me crazy. When i call her out, she reacts by telling me i don’t clean my hands enough when handling my baby anyway.

How do i get through to her, it’s driving me crazy that she doesn’t respect my boundaries and it ends in an explosive argument where she tells me not to bother visiting. As if I don’t want to see the rest of my family.

Am i being dramatic, is it still a risk at almost 3 months old?

How do you do it?

For the stay at home mums who are responsible for their kiddos for the whole day, how do you do it? What are some tips for maintaining your energy and sanity while looking after your kids the whole day, day after day?

For reference I have a 10 month old and a 2 year old and my husband works 12 hour days. I’ve had help from family so far but now I’ll mostly be by myself.

How do you limit or avoid physical and mental exhaustion?

Are you taking your toddler 2-3yo out of the house every weekend? See more!

I mean besides a quick trip to the park or store. An activity like the museum or the mall or an arcade. I’m so tired. I’m a single mom w NO village and my energy Sat & Sunday is so low I just want to lay. My son goes to a Montessori daycare so he’s stimulated all day during the week. So on the weekends he’s ready to go go go. I’ll try to get us outside But then the tantrum aspect of toddlerhood kicks in and he fights me to get dressed and out the door. We get where we’re going but eventually there’s and other tantrum. It’s so much work. But in the house he’s bored. He’s throwing stuff at me and acting out. It’s like I can’t win
