New bestie?

Looking for a mom bestie who actually texts back and doesn’t make it weird 😭 just easy convo, no awkward pauses, no overthinking replies like we can talk about life, kids, chaos, and random nonsense without it feeling like a job interview. Bonus if we can be funny and consistent 🫶 I want a real friend, not an off and on situation LOLL 😭

Indian Arranged marriage - Feeling like im loosing my freedom

It's been a year since I married and with in 2 months of marriage I got pregnant. I didn't want to have children but my husband said infertility rate is high and once its done we can enjoy. I don't know why I agreed. But my main problem is my mother in law. They have a big house and she expected me to do all the house work which I did not. I didn't do any house work except cooking. After getting married I did dishes and cooking. She calls all her relatives and says I'm not doing anything. I stopped doing all the house work once I got pregnant and I had to go office.I had anterior pregnancy so I got severe back pain. Mil still expected me to do all house work which I did not and she made 1 curry and ate for 3 days. I ate office lunch but dinner was one curry for 3 days. She made my pregnancy journey horrible. My breastfeeding journey too. I still have severe back and tailbone pain in 3 months postpartum. She somehow convinced my husband to make me work( house chores) at 3rd month I started doing hourse chores again this time a lot of work. I feel sick. I feel lost. I feel drained emotionally, physically and financially ( they take half my salary too and the rest goes for the baby or for the house). I feel stuck. My husband goes out a lot not only for work but for events, friends, gym etc. I started hating him like he expects me work in house and he enjoy's outside. Im now in my mothers house and don't want to go back.

Baby savers bank account.

Has anyone opened a bank account for their little one yet? If so which bank do you recommend going with.
We are looking at opening one but stuck on who would be best to go with, especially harder when so many branches are closing down so needs to be the right one to do most of it online.

How long into pregnancy are you planning to work?

Ill be getting my MATB1 form soon to give to employer with an expected maternity start date.

I work from home at a desk so feel like I can work later into the pregnancy but I remember how tough it gets after 33 or so weeks!

Just intrigued what everyone else's plans are as id like a bit of nesting time but not too much or money will run out quicker!

Becoming a single mom

Hi ladies.
I am a FTM of a 13 week old. Me and my fiancé have been together for 11 years. He has always been bad with finances and we have been on breaks multiple times and every time I have taken him back thinking he has changed.
I recently just found out that while I got so bad with my ppd and ppa and had to be hospitalized at a mental facility, he was stealing money from my bank account and gambling again. I have since gotten better and able to care for my child, but found out by looking at my bank that he has been charging his expenses on my card as well as using my car for work everyday so I have no means of transportation. He doesn’t pay me the bills on time and I have always been the one to have my name on every bill and pay them. He has not spent a cent on our baby since he’s been born for anything. I confronted him about it and cannot believe the person that I thought I was going to marry can do this to me.
I cannot trust him anymore therefore know that I cannot be with him anymore especially for the sake of our son. I want us to be the best coparents but I am so scared. This is not what I envisioned as a family and for my boy.
I’m heartbroken and now am going to have to do this by myself while he figures out how to get help and provide for his son.
Does anyone have advice on how to do this? I don’t even know where to start with him having visitation and what finances he needs to provide. I live in Illinois.
I just got through some of the darkest moments of my life with the depression and now I have to go through this. I’m so terrified.
