Weaning

My baby is 7.5 months and is not interested whatsoever. I've tried every way I can think of as well as a variety of foods. This isn't my first baby so I have done it before ๐Ÿ˜…
My little girl also still leans to the side when in her highchair/any seat so I'm not wanting to try solids yet until she can.

Am I lazy/a bad mum?

Same here. My little girl, 7 months does not care about solids whatsoever.๐Ÿ˜‚ We tried everything. My oldest went for it right at 6 months and has been a really confident eater ever since but my little girl is crying as soon as food is in her mouth. We are waiting now, what can we do. We will try it every week to see if it changes. :(

It's temperament! Gosh my girl loves her good but is so easily distracted ๐Ÿ˜‚.
Just make it play time not good time. Bang spoons like a drum. Clap and say yay! After you eat the food if she won't.

It'll clock when it clicks. Just get her used to the routine of being in the chair and the rest will come x

My boy refuses any purรฉes or pouches everything has to be finger food/BLW/home cooked ๐Ÿ˜‚ Iโ€™ve set myself up here but at least it forces me to give him the best but maybe just try things baby can grab themselves!

AITA?

Iโ€™m just wondering whether Iโ€™m completely insane or whether Iโ€™m expecting too much? This is the 5th time Iโ€™ve had to settle my little girl tonight.

Friday and Saturday nights are my husbands nights to settle our little girl if she gets upset or wakes up crying as she does not need feeding every time. He gets in a mood in 2 minutes and just dumps her on the bed and lets her cry until I give in and sort it out.

Heโ€™s never been very good at emotions and comforting people so I asked him if this was an issue for him and he said yes. I just said that he will need to learn to find a way because soon I will be going back to work and will not be doing this every night and working full time. He blew up and is now ignoring me.

Like why are you in a mood?? Iโ€™m the one that has to get up every single time and fix itโ€ฆyou donโ€™t even try? You just try to roll over and go back to sleep because you canโ€™t be arsed. It sounds silly but my body hurts Iโ€™m so angry.

Iโ€™m honestly so sick of this, obviously I love my child and donโ€™t mind settling her if I need to but when he canโ€™t even be bothered to tryโ€ฆwhen am I supposed to sleep and rest exactly? Heโ€™s currently snoring next to me 5 minutes after blowing up in my face and Iโ€™m about to hit the roof

whoโ€™s wrong (long one )

my partner is in the bedroom sleeping. Iโ€™m giving the children a bath. All three of them are out my 3 year old was in the bath. My 2 yo was in the front room watching TV and my 1yo was walking around and I went in the kitchen to check my phone for like one minute I was not there long just to check messages I turned around and heโ€™s standing behind me looking at me like Iโ€™ve done something wrong and he made me jump. I just walked off because I already knew why he was annoyed. Heโ€™s annoyed because I left my daughter in the bath even if it was for one minute and iknow sheโ€™ll be fine sheโ€™s old enough, and heโ€™s annoyed because I left my 1yo walking around because she couldโ€™ve gone in the bathroom and done something she shouldnโ€™t whatever he thought, and he was talking to me and telling me why I did it was wrong and I wasnโ€™t even looking at him cause I just felt so embarrassed and fed up and annoyed with arguing with him all the time and I just was saying to him โ€œitโ€™s okay. Itโ€™s okay! โ€œtrying to just tell him to stop i know i get it and then he said he felt like I disrespected him by basically telling him to just be quiet. he asked me if itโ€™s the first time iโ€™ve done it I said no itโ€™s not, and he said well if itโ€™s not the first time then how am I telling him to be quiet if I already know.. he said i should of rather just said to him โ€œyeah iknow i wont do it againโ€ rather than just ignoring him and shutting him up and walking off like idk i just feel so stupid rn for the way i reacted and idk why i even reacted that way pls help๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜’

Please someone explain psychology

I get angry at my husband when he's speaking the truth... (which of course is negative) we have been trying for over a year to conceive after a miscarriage ๐Ÿ˜ž we are getting frustrated his testosterone is fine at 700.... i honestly think I'm pmsing... im 8 DPO ny body knows by 7 if im pregnant and I get signs by 8 DPO if im pregnant or not.. im a bit discouraged myself and I wander if I am trying to stay overly positive cause the negative hurts more..... i just want to understand why I get so defensive and angry when he speaks that way....

Partner doesn't make food for the kids.

I feel like I'm carrying all the labor of feeding our child. Baby daddy doesn't understand the struggle. If it were up to him my kid would probably starve or at least be malnutritioned. It's like it doesn't even cross his mind.
