Am I wrong?

Am I in the wrong just for asking my husband a question while he’s playing game. I got off of work, came home and started cooking and tending to the kids. Husband took the day off today, slept most of the day. Then he said he told me he was going to get on game for 10 minutes and then get in the bath which I didn’t hear because I was cooking. Cats are meowing cause they’re hungry so I proceeded to ask him if he fed the cats, he didn’t hear me so I raised my voice a little higher and then he got mad at me for asking a question so I just left him alone. Once he got off the game after his match was over with he says to me that I didn’t have to yell at him. I feel like I didn’t yell but I did raise my voice a little higher so he could hear me. Then he starts screaming at me saying, “he just wanted 10 minutes to himself, can’t I give him that” now we’re fighting cause I said I was just asking a question I don’t understand how that’s wrong? Then I said he should always have one headphone off his ear while playing and the other one on. I wasn’t nagging him or telling him he couldn’t play the game or anything. It was a simple question, and now I feel as if I can’t ask him anything. I already had an overwhelming day at work, and then come home to a toddler who hasn’t napped all day. And now I don’t feel like talking to him at all..

Not wrong. Your husband is being a big baby..

He flipped this on you. You did nothing wrong- he just doesn’t want to be held accountable for his actions so he’s blaming you.

You already know the answer.

Unreasonable or nah?

Partner wanted to take son to see his grandad at the pub at 6pm. I said thats fine but he needs ro be back by half 7 absolute LATEST because his bedtime is actually 7, but I wanted to give them longer. He starts arguing, saying son can sleep in the pram. I say no, you know he doesnt sleep well in the pram and he doesnt transfer well, bedtime will be a battle and so will the night shift. He says he'll handle it but I say it's not the point, our son needs routine. He starts yelling at me, telling me I'm being controlling and he can do what he wants with our son. It becomes a massive thing, resulting in me saying 'if you cant compromise, youre not taking our son anywhere'. He tries to backpeddle and say he'll bring him back, its gone 6 now and hes losing time. I say no, until you learn to respect our sons wants and needs and out them before your own/your dad's, it's not happening

Hes now crying in the garden to his dad about what a bitch I am and tbh, I'm ready to pack my shit and leave.

For context: 1) I do ALL the nightshifts. My partner never wakes, if I want help I have to wake him. But if I wake him he gets shitty and makes the whole nighttime thing way more stressful, so I've stopped bothering. Partner says this is MY problem as I'm choosing to do it alone..
2) his dad won't come to ours apparently, because i 'dont make him feel welcome'. Weird, considering I hugged him last time I saw him and hand painted an engagement card, but Im a cunt ig?
3) last time he took him to the pub, he didnt come back until 11pm, despite me ringing several times asking him to being him home. He left eventually...after his friends told him to.

Help - honest views / advice?

My house is not big enough for the pram inside - I have no hallway and limited living room space. I am having to leave the pram and travel system in the boot of my car which is on the driveway right outside the house. I am leaving the baby in his Moses basket safe and going to the car with the door open so can hear him. It won’t be too bad when he is in his stroller because this can be condensed down which I can bring in and fit in the house.

Does anyone else do this / or know anyway of resolving this??

I have anxieties and OCD which I am getting help for from the mental health team. My husband thinks I’m over thinking it for how long I am going to the car but I don’t know? Something just doesn’t sit right with me.

Discipline

How are we disciplining our children???

My daughter is 19 months and she doesn't listen for nooothing.

We have child safety locks on our lower cabinets and she tore one off and keeps trying to get in it. No matter how many times I tell her no and move her or hold her hands and say no she KEEPS. ON. GOING. BACK. And it's like that with eeeverryythiiingg. The trash, her dad's work boots, everything she's not supposed to touch or do she does it laughing.

I get she's testing boundaries but wtf am I supposed to do??

And don't even say hit her😒

6 week olds legs and arms still skinny?

Hey mamas, should I be concerned that my baby’s arms and legs are still super skinny? He’s 6 weeks old and is gaining weight but ive seen other peoples 6 week old baby’s and they seem to have much chunkier arms and legs? he exclusively breast feeds but I’ve had mixed reviews on this with some saying it makes baby’s chubby and some saying formula does.

Feeling alone and lost

I'm ready for another baby now. I want one really really badly. It has always been my dream to have a large family, like 10 kids. And when my husband and I were dating, he agreed that's something he would love. Now it feels like he's backing out on me. He says that while he'd be happy if i got pregnant again, he'd prefer to wait another year before even trying.
Here's the thing. I have progressive scoliosis. I had to start intensive chiropractic care when I was 12 and later PT in order to slow it down and manage pain. I know, and my husband knows, that the more time passes, the harder it will be on me to carry and birth children. I want to have children earlier while I know I can. Plus you just never know what the future holds, so I generally have a "why wait?" attitude.
I just feel so lost. I already don't know who I am anymore outside of being a wife and mother. Now a part of me is afraid maybe I don't know my husband as well anymore either. He seems to be ditching the dream we had when we got married.

To be fair to him, we do live in a 1 bed apartment right now, have a small car, and are fairly low income. He has recently started a side business on top of his day job, one that he plans to eventually do full time from home. I also want to get a remote job, and have a whole plan, but he says I have to wait while we save up for our emergency fund and the $600 I would need to start. This kind of makes it feel like he gets to call the shots and do what he wants to do, but my plans and dreams have to be put on hold.
Am I in the wrong here? I don't resent him or anything, I just feel unheard and alone.

What’s your reaction to this

One of my family members are homeschooling their children, they do not teach their children much. When I asked He said there 10-year-old is learning how to read by playing Minecraft. They were very happy by this fact.
