I’m really upset to be honest because my little girl is my world. I never wanna see any of my kids upset the way I seen her I had took down her box braids because it was time for them to come down and we was at the waterpark and everything like that and my little girl started crying telling me mommy please put up my hair I’m like why you look beautiful 😍 an she sat there and told me I feel ugly Everybody always be telling me I’m ugly because of my hair I was like what so me being her mom I have mixed people hair so of course me being her mother I took my hair down and I was like OK we both gonna walk around with our beautiful hair out and they had this older black lady that had stopped me and asked me what was wrong and I told her an the lady asked me if she can sit my daughter down to talk to her. I was like yes you good The older lady had told my daughter 👧🏽 your hair is your crown 👑 you wear that hair with pride and like she have a mixed mom so she has a white Grandmother💕 too and like what really upsets me is that she Feels Like she don’t fit in with the white side and it’s like I want her to be able to know that either side, black or white you’re beautiful 😍 because like she’s a spitting image of her dadd and it hurts me for my baby to even sit there and tell me mom I feel ugly with my natural hair if anybody can tell me how I can get my baby to love her natural hair I will be so thankful because I’m having a hard time with this I’m 24 about to be 25 in two months i’m still very new to being a mother like 💞💞💞🥺!!!!!!!

My husband and CPS

My husband is a pill addict, mostly Adderall, and CPS was called. His mom retaliated and said I was manic bipolar, so CPS investigated that too which was awesome. I wasn’t worried. All my providers and children’s providers vouched for my sanity. Without making this a novel, my husband has had a pill addiction for a while. I’m prescribed Adderall and klonopin for panic attacks that I take as prescribed. I barely even take the klonopin. Just when I have a panic attack. I knew things were getting out of hand when my husband was asking me for Adderall, which I keep locked in a combination safe or else he’ll steal it. I knew that meant his plugs that have legitimate scripts were out and he would be looking elsewhere. I am terrified of him buying fake pressed pills with fentanyl in them. Him dropping them on the floor. Him taking them and dying, so I made a poor decision and I gave him some of mine which I was honest with CPS about and why. I then began organizing an intervention for him with his cousins. His mom, who basically has an emotionally incestuous relationship with her son, I contacted and said he needed to stay with her until he got help because our kids don’t need to be around that. We got into an argument. She had my kids because they had slept over. I said I was coming to pick up my kids. As I was driving over my dad called and said she called him and said she’d call the police if I showed up at her house, so I called the non emergency line of the police and asked an officer to escort me to pick up my children. Basically I explained my situation to them, my mother in law said I was manic and crazy and also has been lying to everyone and saying my father who has Parkinson’s is senile and making up that she called him and said that. 51As were filed and CPS got involved. They were about to unsupport my 51A, but unfortunately for me, I left my klonopin script out of the safe one night, and my husband must’ve stolen one and the idiot failed a drug test. CPS asked me if I gave it to him. I genuinely didn’t, but I told them I had forgotten to lock them in the safe which they said was on me so my 51A came back as substantiated and his supported. They are recommending detox for him. He’s not going to do it. I have gotten some legal advice over the past few weeks. He is not allowed to be alone with our kids. I am their sole caretaker right now. If I choose to stay in the house with him, if anything happens to those kids, they could possibly be removed from both of us because I decided to stay. I have a legal separation petition already filled out by a lawyer ready to file that would petition the court to remove him
From the home and make my children and I the sole occupants as well as child support and supervised visitation for him. I’m scared to file it. I need to buy some time to fix my credit to buy out his half of the house. This is my children’s home. I have $150k invested in this house and we are both owners. Mortgage is under his name though, but I am on the deed. I feel bad for him, but he is crazy and refusing to even acknowledge he has a problem. He tried to delete his and his mom’s text messages from my phone not realizing they could be recovered. He has messaged my family telling them I’m crazy. He has screen shotted messages I’ve sent him with no context and sent them to his mom. I honestly don’t know what’s keeping me from filing these papers. I know it’s not worth losing custody of my kids over someone like that, but he tells me he loves me, he’s nice to me, but he makes shit up about me behind my back, and idk wtf is going on. I’m just scared to pull the trigger that I’m going to make things 100 times worse. I was hoping if he went to rehab and got clean he’d be better as a husband which was part of me going for legal separation and not divorce, but I feel like if I file for legal separation, he’s going to go straight for divorce out of spite forcing the sale of the house before I’m ready to buy it. Idk I guess I want advice but also venting. I married the wrong guy. Had kids with the wrong guy. I don’t even know who I married. I didn’t know he was an addict when I married him. If you made it this far, thank you.

Why wont my son sleep? 😭

So first time mom, dont know if this is a boy thing or a every baby thing, but for the last month my son has been EXTREMELY difficult about nap and bed time. Hes almost 2. His day consists of tons of active play indoors and outdoors so i know hes tuckered out, big meals so hes full, no gas, not thirsty, i feel like ive tried everything but for some reason he just will NOT go to sleep, im typing this as im rocking him ive been rocking him for the last 2 hours for bed and he is still forcing his body rigid to get out of my arms, trying to sit up, hitting and crying. He takes a bottle before nap and bed, diaper is changed, i swear im going crazy. I dont know what to do at this point, any advice is appreciated.

Sleep regression?

Asleep at 7
at 9:45
Up at 0:14
Up at 2:44
This isn’t normal I swear for a 3 month old he’s been doing this for over a week. I’m exhausted. He has his jabs today and I’m so nervous as he’s barely sleeping and been sooo unsettled during the day. He wil wake up again at 4ish it’s the same every night. I watch his wake windows and naps they’re all pretty in line. I try to get him to bed later but always falls at 7… help 😭😂

Why my baby can’t chill 😂

My baby started to crawl and now I can’t leave her unsupervised for not even 10 seconds is exhausting. How did you cope with it? I’m dreading to think how she is gonna be when she starts walking lol
