Sorry you’re feeling like this, you need to change your mindset tho, it doesn’t need to cost money to get out and about, you could go for walks the weathers going to be lovely, use food banks if needed or too good too go apps if Uk, make packed lunches, have you got family around you? X

Are there any local mums on local mums groups on here who might want to get together locally to you and do things?
Picnic in park. Or cheap / hardly any cost meet ups.

You said you’re in a flat, does it have any outdoor space? I find when I can’t go out because of heat or feeling fed up, some make shift toys in garden under a sunshade while I watch and chat to her but get to sit down.

How olds your little one?

Dont know what to do. SAHM wanting to leave husband

Wanting to leave husband and take my kids with me across state lines to live with family. Have never really had a job. Every time I tried to get one he would quit talking to me until I left the job. Always told me he was the provider and I was a stay at home mom. But now its getting bad between us. He gets jealous of our kids getting to spend time with me, he has mood swings like no other. He is very back and forth on everything making it unstable for the kids. There is so much more, but I feel stuck because of having no job or way to support my kids. Let alone a lawyer that costs $6,000. Any advice or suggestions hoping would be helpful.

Am I a bad friend for denying being a Godmother to my best friend’s child??

I really need to know if I’m in the wrong here… okay here it goes. Years back my best friend got pregnant mind you this was her second pregnancy after miscarrying her first, which she never announced it to me until she was 7-8months in. That broke me because we shared everything… so with her second one I knew right off the bat, which brought us a bit closer then ever. Months after giving birth, she asked me to be her baby’s Godmother and at that time you guys have to understand I was dealing with a lot I just launched my business, I was in school, I made debts after debts It really was a blessing but the busiest part of my life. I had politely declined and stated my reasons and she just said “okay” with nothing else to say. We haven’t spoke since that day marking it 2years and boy I miss her soo much but I don’t know whether what I did was wrong enough for me to start and apologise first and make things right, or should I just leave things as is?? Help!!

Finding motherhood lonely

This is my second child and I find being a mother incredibly lonely. I don't have many friends they all work full time or live a long drive away so I don't see them that much. All my family work full time and don't have kids.

I feel isolated at times, I would say I'm an introvert so I don't tend to leave the house much, but if someone was to communicate with me first I will talk back I'm incredibly shy at times no knowing what to say.

I am 32 years old and I feel like it's hard to make friends at this age.

I take my 4 month old to a baby group on Fridays for an hour but it's not the kind of group where you can talk to other mums. I want to force myself to go to more baby groups in the week but I'm so anxious about going somewhere new.

I feel like she's a bit behind as she doesn't see other babies much to watch them.

WE ARE MARRIED BUT I STILL DONT TRUST HIM!!

Sooo… I’ve been in a relationship with my now husband for 2 years and we just got married about a month ago. This relationship was the best thing that’s ever happened to me and he confirmed it himself after being cheated on in previous relationships. The first year we couldn’t say away from each other to the point he promised to marry me. Fast forward 2 years in I had a gut feeling and went through his phone and found he was flirting with over 10 women. (I still remember all those chats as if it was yesterday) I confronted him, he was sincere and apologised and vowed never to do it again. 2 months later I found out he was talking to his ex basically talking about how he could have done things differently. Again I confronted him he apologised and promised to never do it again. I forgave him… 😩another month or 2 later I discovered he was having sexual chats with a women basically miles away and on top of that had started talking with another ex of his cause she owed her money and was organising to get it back by driving to her soon. Again I forgave him but the relationship was never the same we tried fixing it and it seems like he has changed and he even proposed and vowed to be loyal but I can’t trust him anymore. How do I go about this😭😭

Nappy bin in the nursery - how to reduce smells!

Sorry mines just a random silly one😆 but in my little boys nursery is his changing area and nappy bin and despite having a bin that seals, when we shut the bedroom door, it shuts the wee / poo smell into the room and it becomes such an overwhelming smell in his room.

I just wondered if people had any tips to keeping the room smelling fresh?
I darent use any air fresheners in case they have harmful ingredients. I change the bin ever 2-3 days.
Any little tips would be great 😌
