AITA?

So todayI had a wic appointment. Last night me and my husband were laying in bed, scrolling and about to go to sleep. I told him "we have to be at the office at 845, so we'll have to leave about 815am". He said okay and then a few minutes later when we put our phones down he said " did you set your alarms" I said yes, he ALWAYS sets his alarms so I didnt worry about if he had. Anyways I get up in the morning, I get myself and both of my kids ready and the bag ready. At 730 I gently wake up my husband and let him know he has about 45 min until we have to leave. He stays asleep so I'm like okay he literally just throws clothes on and we leave so maybe hes just waiting until the very last possible second. Which is fine because I know hes fast. 805 rolls around and Im like okay this is ridiculous we have to leave soon so I go and try to wake him up again and he just turns over. My daughter screamed at me in the hall so that woke him up. He goes into the bathroom and the clock hits 813 and I'm like "dude we have to leave in 2 minutes" and he starts getting mad "why didnt you wake me up" I tried. You turned back over. Also I wouldn't have to wake you up if you set alarms like you always do...Anyways we leave, he says he doesnt need GPS we've been there a million times. He parks and I'm like "this isn't the right building" and he says it is so I look it up on GPS and hand it to him and he says "yeah this is the building" so we get out and walk up to the door and this is not the building. I look it up on my phone and it's on the other side of the area we're in. So now I'm fuming, so I start walking back and hes like "where are you going" and I say "back to the car cause this is the wrong building like I just fucking said" and now hes pissed and saying I'm selfish and only care about myself and I don't love him, I'm a bitch, etc. I'm pissed because 1 I told him what time we had to leave. Hes a grown ass man who sets his alarms any other day why was today any different? And 2 I gave him the map to the building and he obviously didnt even look at it for more than 2 seconds

Sound like my husband every Sunday morning before church, lol. I want to strangle him in the moment, but later, after the anger has passed, it just doesn’t seem like that big of a deal. He was annoying. Husbands excel at that.

Does anybody else feel irritated / annoyed about their husbands/ boyfriends ? Is this normal?

First time mom to a baby that will be turning 7 months soon and I love her but it’s overwhelming , tiring and overstimulating at times to be a mom and to be a wife … I feel irritated towards my husband and feel stand offish towards him . He’s a good dad and tries to help as much as he can but I feel like even when he does help it irritates me or bothers me which I feel makes me crazy 😅 our relationship has been okay but I wouldn’t say I’m the happiest I’ve been or that we’re on “fire “ for each other it just feels bleh right now not bad but not good.. anybody have any advice ??

What would you do?

My friend has been talking to other parents about my sons disability. They both go to the same school and I know it was her cause the other parent who told my husband about it was someone we've never met before.

She asked how my son was with his disability and my husband was completely taken aback. I can't drive so I never do the drop off or pick ups. My friend is the only parent in the entire school who knows about my son's disability. It isn't obvious, it's a hidden disability.

Do I confront this friend and ask them about it? Do I let it blow over my head? I've distanced myself from this friend of mine recently. We also work together and she is avoiding me like the plague. Normally she's chasing my tail and messaging every five minutes.

Does she know that I know? Is she feeling guilty? I feel like she is because she is being unusually quiet at work. She hides in her office and never leaves, then goes home early. Usually she is storming around the place like a little hurricane.

She finally spoke to me a few days ago and she was very timid. I'm half tempted to call her out on it but I know it will cause an all out war.

So what do you think I should do?

The nursery store - legit?

Has anyone ordered off the nursery store before? Never heard of it before so wondering if to trust it or not 🤔

Feel bad asking MIL to leave early

I'm 4 days pp and MIL is staying with us for a week to help with toddler and newborn

I feel guilty but I asked my husband if she can go early because she's not really helping and it's actually creating more work.

Like she'll make toddler her breakfast or dinner but will leave all the dishes and mess.
She makes her own breakfast but only eats half and leaves her bowl by the sink, with the food still in, to be washed by us.
Won't do laundry/ washing up/ bathtime / bedtime. Idk why
Won't walk the dog.
Even made herself toast but double dipped so there's crumbs in the butter 😅😅 I think you get the idea.

She just sits and helps by holding our baby but honestly that's not helping especially since I'm bfeeding.

My husband thinks I'm being ungrateful but honestly I'm struggling to keep up with cleaning after her and juggling everything else.

Stressed about being out with baby

Not sure if it's just me but I have been feeling quite stressed about going out with baby because it messes up with the schedule and we spend more time preparing about the outing even if it's a short walk.

I am breastfeeding and I'm still not very comfortable feeding baby in public yet. Half of the times we had gone out with baby, baby has cried for a long time while being out which makes me feel more stressed and not wanting to do big trips out or stay out for longer than an hour. Anyone else is in the same situation?

We're meant to visit my in laws tomorrow and they live almost an hour away, so the round trip would take an hour half to two hours plus if we stay there for a couple of hours, we would be out for quite awhile. I'm just not sure I'm ready for that and I feel very guilty for that.

Am I overreacting

My aunt, I call her mom, is throwing a pool party Mother’s Day celebration. I got the invitation and the time was set for my almost two year olds scheduled nap time, so I texted her I’d try to make it but wasn’t sure if we would and I let her know it was because of nap time. She then texted me back telling me not to worry about it because she had concerns about my child in the pool. She said it was because of how many people would be there and that I “can’t take my eyes of him for 30 seconds”. Mind you he’s been in the pool multiple times, I e always been safe about it floaties, life jackets etc. I believe that it’s just because I’m the youngest parent there, I’m 23, because she’s never expressed concern like this for any other young child, I’ve seen unattended 4 year olds who can’t swim in her pool before multiple times. I was really hurt, this woman watched me birth my child, and made me feel like she thought I was incapable of a parent even though I’ve never given a reason for doubt. I told her we’d find a different day, I didn’t tell her how she made me feel, after this she said I could come if we could make it work and that she has a life jacket for him(I own multiple myself) I told her we’d find a different day. I feel hurt and just want to tell her but I don’t know if I’m overreacting or if this is valid
