He pisses me off

Honestly, I’m still with my baby daddy, we’re together and we live together. But this morning he got pissed off cause our son wouldn’t stay still while he tried changing him and I told him to let me do it. Then he gets mad saying “let me fucking do it” so I said fine do it then. He told me to change him and he stormed out the room slamming the bedroom door making our son cry, getting into his car and sped off. I’m really tired of his shit tbh, I’m so fucking done

Girl that is not ok. It is exhausting and unfair for you and especially for your baby who is a literal baby!! To have to manage his emotions when he should be able to manage his own emotions as a grown ass man. I get being frustrated parenting is not easy especially if this is y’all’s first child it’s understandable to be stressed out but it’s how you handle that stress that tells you everything you need to know and this reaction is not ok at all, he should be able to handle a basic moment like a diaper change without blowing up at you. Even if he apologizes later anyone can say sorry but if this is a constant pattern this may not be the best environment for you and most importantly your baby. I’m sorry you and your son have to deal with this yall don’t deserve this

Ugh girl preach! Im so beyond done that anymore im only happy at work just to get away from all the dam gas lighting and just 0 to explosive behavior and at kids like they are innocent 🙄 best of luck to you!

Sounds like you’re taking care of two babies.

Lucky you

Are we letting children watch the old Disney movies?

Movies like Pocahontas, Jungle Book, Peter Pan and Pinocchio. I know there is a lot in movies like these that is controversial but I grew up on these and wondering if I should just let my 3 year old watch the old Disney movies. My favorite was Fox and Hound but watching it as an adult gives me a take I didnt realize as a kid.

You're SOO lucky!

Is anyone else sick of being told their husband/partner is amazing and aren't you so lucky he does so much to help you with the baby. Yes he helps raise his child. Does he do anywhere near as much as me, no way. I breastfed for 7 months, I took a year off my job and so have lost money, affected my pension, literally get up every night for a year with this baby. Does he get asked the same thing about me. I don't think so. If anything it's like a negative on me as a mum that I'm getting SO much help. I might lose it at the next person to say this to me.

3 year old wants a PHONE

Help! My daughter sees her 5 year old cousin on her phone(yes my brother got his 5 year old a real phone) and has been constantly asking my husband and I if she could have a 'real' phone. We have given her pretend ones that light up and make sounds and she recognizes its not a real working phone and asks for a real one. I didn't think I would be having this argument at 3. I didnt think she would ask for a phone until middle school. Idk what I was thinking. Any ideas on how to convince her she doesnt need one? I tried telling her things like "it will hurt your brain and eyes" "your eyes dont like it" and I redirect her to books, toys, slime, playdoh literally anything besides a phone. Any suggestions on how to deter her from wanting one?

do you and your SO connect (emotionally or physically) regularly?

I crave intimacy, but my partner comes home very tired. He plays a little with our baby before his bath, then eats, showers and then he plays on his phone, or watch reels. I told him yesterday that the time he spends on his phone we could do something together, ANYTHING, since we don't have couple time, only parent. He seemed annoyed and told me literally "that's life, we can't connect everyday". I guess he does have a point, but I feel so not appreciated and loved :(
Just wanted to know if I'm alone in this

CHIA SEEDS

Hi moms 😊 How do you usually prepare chia seeds before eating them, for both yourselves and your little ones? Do you wash them first and then soak, just soak them, or eat them as they are? What works best for you?

Need advice

Me and my man live together. We have a system that works for us. He cooks and does the food shopping. We alternate dropping and picking the kids up. I do most of the cleaning but he cleans the bathroom stove and refrigerator. I make sure the dishes are washed and the clothes are cleaned daily. But this man will come home and make a bigger mess. When he cooks he wont clean up after himself. Examples yesterday I wasn't home. He was here all day by himself tell me why my house looks like a pig pens and when I say something he wants to get upset. If this was his parents house he would make sure him & who ever else was there was cleaning so why not do it where he actually lays his head. I cant stand men sometimes.

Sorry if my rant is all over the place. I just needed to space to let it out.
