We miss him

Guys my partner works overnights 12-16hr shifts, he’s been on mandatory OT for the span of a month. Before that he was helping a coworker out and they switched schedules for 2weeks, which made his days off be spilt so we didn’t get much time with him before it was mandatory..

I know there’s people who have it worse and never see their person or don’t even have a person. But I just have to take a moment to complain

Within this last month 18 people have been on “injury” leave, 3 more just went on “injury” tonight. One of these mfs hurt his back pulling up his freezer overalls AFTER TAKING A SHIT!

The mando OT is to make up for those people on leave right? They can’t do any hiring to fill in for them because they technically have a full staff, they just all have job security while being on leave 😭

I hate it, me and my daughter miss our guy.. I’m pregnant again and he just hasn’t been able to really be here with us. He tries while he’s home but he’s soo tired..
Yes we know a job is a choice and the $$ is of course great but dam man

My guy is gone m-f 4:30 am - 4pm or later, he's an hour away and not available for anything during that time. I stay home with my step daughter and I'm pregnant. He's usually fighting to not pass out as soon as dinner is gone. He's already gotten in trouble at work bc of my Dr appointments.
He's trying but he's a zombie sometimes.

Hi mums! How are we staying fit postpartum? I’m ready to start working out but want advice on how other mums do it. Feel like I can never fit it in other than dog walks. What do you find helps slowly getting back into your fitness ?
Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.

I just don’t want sex. HELP

I’m so baffled by what on earth is going on inside my brain/body right now.
I love my husband. I fancy him which is what’s also confusing me. But I’ve lost all interest in sex since having our son 18 months ago. The more time passes the worse I’m getting. Last night I could tell he was getting a bit touchy feeling so before we went to bed I ran into the bathroom and stuck a load of fake tan on so that I had an excuse as to why I couldn’t do it. I made my apologies and he looked really gutted. He never ever puts pressure on me or ever makes me feel guilty or pressurises me into it which also makes me feel guilty that I don’t sometimes just do it. When we’re doing it it always feels really good. So I’ve no idea why that spark hasn’t lit back up for me.

I am tired and I think I had ppd and anxiety for a while (undiagnosed). But things have felt better and lighter for a while now. The only thing that isn’t back to normal is our sex life. But sex literally never ever crosses my mind. It’s like I’ve gone numb to those desires and it’s out of sight, out of mind. We can go weeks or we probably can do it once a month.

I’m a bit embarrassed to chat to my friends about this.

Should I be worried?

Hey ladies!

Just a question here, my partner and I were intimate yesterday. Because I’m not on any type of birth control, by choice we decided to use condoms. TMI we usually don’t but during my ovulation cycle, we do just to be on the safe side. The condom broke yesterday and resulted in him finishing inside. Technically speaking after having a csection they recommend up to a year before getting pregnant again.
My question is, do I have anything really to worry about if I were to get pregnant? Should there be anything for me to stress over?

If I sound stupid, i’m sorry. But my head is full and figure i’d get some advice.

Settle a yoga pants/legging argument

I am being told that the only reason any woman ever wears yoga pants or leggings is for the one and ONLY purpose of showing off their butt to men and wanting to attract attention from men

If you are a sahm, do you think your partner TRULY understands everything you do at home?

Before becoming a sahm I 100000% misunderstood what it meant and what it took. Now that I’m one I feel very overlooked & drained basically every day. So with that said, I MISS having a career :(.

When is everyone returning back to work?

When is everyone returning back to work? And if so are you going back to full time or part time? How many days and how do you request for flexibility working hours?
