Universal credit - child element - London uk

Everyone has been telling me payments are going up from this month. I've just checked my statement. And yes.. the allowances have gone up indeed. BUT the cap has also gone up.. and I've been deducted even more.. so I'm not even sure in which world that is making sense.. because now I'm left with even less than I started with. I literally have £300 for myself and 3 kids for an entire month for food and bills etc. This is really not enough. My benefit cap is £748 and my children are supposed to get £911. Is this even correct? Is your cap the same being single with 3 kids please. I'm already struggling with food and bills 😩

Introvert bestie looking for any bestie 😭

Hey lovelies! I’m a 24 year old mama of 3 kids, a SAHM and 420 friendly!

About me: I like to read when I can, bake or cook, I do sometimes play Xbox and mobile games as well! Sometimes I’m listening to music, a book, or sometimes podcasts of true crime. Of course I’m obsessed with ice coffee!!

Hoping to find a friend who doesn’t mind messaging, FaceTime calls or audios, understanding the chaos of mom life but also won’t ghost after a day or so! Bonus if you’re in the same state if not totally down for internet besties

Hi! I’m Alexis 😊
Mama to a sweet little girl and full-time chaos coordinator between babysitting and mom life. I love summer adventures, coffee runs, little road trips, and making fun memories with the kids.

I’m pretty easygoing, love laughing until I cry, and I’m looking for genuine mom friends who are down for playdates, late-night talks, Target trips, lake days, or just surviving motherhood together 😂

Big heart, loyal friend, and always the one bringing snacks. 💛

Is this weird, thoughtful, or other?

So my partner has gotten into a community recently around something specific and has made some friends. Talks to them daily. A few of them have kids like we do but different ages. The last time we ran into them in person, one mentioned it was their youngest first birthday coming up and said their theme. We talked about how ours just had a birthday and their theme. I was thinking about making a little crochet plushie for her in her babies theme? Would that be weird? To make/give them a gift? We moms arent necessarily friends just yet but our partners talk daily and we’ve had a few nice interactions. Am I overthinking it? Should I do it!m? Or not?

Sex is not the same

Is anyone here that likes sex but after had a baby and be for a few years with the same person, it’s different, you don’t do the same, is not passionate as before cause you even feel… shy?, sometimes not even in the mood for it in the beginning but 🤷🏼‍♀️ sometimes you just do it cause is good for keep the relation active…
