Hormones or am I just nuts

Yall I have never had such a short fuse. Yesterday I was hitting against a backboard at a public tennis court and had to leave because a group of young 20 something’s asked if they could share the court (not really a big deal but it felt like such an attack in the moment because no, you really can’t share a court that way but I was to frazzled to explain that calmly). So I came home and scream cried.

Then today I found out the $200 shipment I splurged on of magnetic me baby clothes was stolen off my front porch in about a 15 minute time window between when it was dropped and when I left to the said tennis court of terrors. If any of you are survivor fans, I’m like Liz like every other day for the past week. IM PISSED 😂😭 little things feel like frickin mountains!

So yeah how do yall handle mood swings!? Bc right now I’m like a bomb that randomly explodes into hysterical crying. My poor husband does not know what to do lol.

Sounds like postpartum rage honestly (though the package being stolen would’ve sent me over too lol) I’ve gotten it with both my kids now. When I feel it coming, I find ways to get frustration out before I lose it so I’ve used noise canceling headphones with music, working out, hitting a pillow, screaming into a pillow, going out into the cold for deep breaths

Should they be banned for life and would you as a parent press charges?

This teacher slapped a primary school student and left a red mark, however she tried to say in her statement that it was an "involuntary arm movement" 😑 I call bullshit... How can you "accidentally" have your arm outstretched, "accidentally" have an open hand and "accidentally" come into contact with a child's cheek enough to leave a red mark? But in the same interview she states that "a challenging classroom situation contributed to the incident". I'm sorry but if teaching brings you to the point of assault then you shouldn't be a teacher 🤷🏼‍♀️ so my questions are:
Should it be a lifetime ban? And would you press charges as the parent?

4skin

I had my 8 week check for my newborn recently and the doctor told me I should be gently pulling his foreskin back so that it doesn’t get too tight. I haven’t been given this advice before so I haven’t been doing it for my two-year-old.

My two-year-old’s foreskin doesn’t go back over the head of his penis, It’s too tight. Is this normal? Is it because I haven’t been pulling it back regularly?

Sorry about the title, apparently I’m not allowed to say foreskin in it?

husband keeps telling me to stop nursing

my daughter is 14 months and my husband has been trying to get me to quit nursing her since she was like 4 months old. it’s been taking a toll on me that he’s not being supportive, i feel like any normal partner would be happy and supportive of their wife breastfeeding their baby for this long and even planning for longer. but he’s been so terrible to me about it. he told me i just shouldn’t even nurse or next baby. why’s he so hateful about it?? he can’t even tell me what he doesn’t like about it, just says i’m going to be nursing her till she’s like 4.

Vulnerability Post

Hey mummas

Just a little vulnerability post …

Im starting to feel guilty … baby girl is 4 weeks and formula fed !

Long story short but constantly hearing Breast is best and people asking me if she BF is starting to get to me …

I cant BF for reasons such as anatomy so I express but finding the time to express consistently is hard that i’m not producing much

And now I feel like I’m the reason for my baby girls discomfort because she hardly gets Breast Milk …

I love this little girl but mentally I’m struggling with my inability to give her Breast Milk

Is this dangerous for a 2yr old?

Wanting to upgrade from cot, my son will be coming up to 2 1/2yrs when I upgrade his bed.

I need something with storage as the room is small.

Is this safe?

Comforter

Anyone's babies not have a comforter? No dummy, no teddy, no snuggle. Shes 10 months and just goes to sleep in her cot at night independently after a snuggle and song with us. I feel bad and it makes me sad for her that she doesn't have a little comforter all night but she sleeps through without one and no crying ect, am I overthinking this has anyone introduced a little snuggie or anything anyway??
