Am I over reacting ?

Me and my BD are not in a good space at all. We clash and disagree on everything.
He goes out every weekend till 6am and we have 2 children under 2 the following day he to exhausted to even entertain his children who want to play.
I have been in hospital with my oldest I messaged the BD to let him know he was extremly funny with me. He then did not answer any of my calls. I sent him messages to keep him updated with what was happening. He never responded to anything. Eventually 6hrs later we was let home only to find him not return to the house and still not communicate with me at all to shecknon his child.
To me this is not a man who priorities his children this is not man showing he cares.
I’m fuming with him as I would push aside all my issue if my child was poorly in hospital and prioritise her and I expect the same from her dad.

What should I do ?

Leave him. He’s obviously doing something he shouldn’t be doing. And he doesn’t respect you or your children with the way he is acting. I would not want that role model for my babies.

In my opinion, this is not a man you want to be with everyday if he doesn’t put his family first. Take control and set strict boundaries. If you haven’t already, talk to him and let him know this is what you need from him and if he doesn’t want to at least try to change or make an effort to change then I’m sorry yall do not need to be together at the moment. You’re being a a great mom and he’s not even putting in the effort for his sick child. The red flags are there. Coming in at a insane hour 🚩ignoring your calls and texts 🚩 not prioritizing the life he helped create 🚩now if there’s another issue there he should be able to communicate it with you but he’s not even doing that babes

Accident nursery poo,

Got a call from nursery today to say my daughter had taken her nappy/trousers off, got poo everywhere and even put some in her mouth 😩

Has anyone else’s little one ever gone through a phase like this? She is potty training!

Please tell me I’m not alone because I genuinely don’t know what to do next 😭

Kindergarten drama?!

I need to rant.
During school morning drop off my heart broke a bit for my 6 year old.
She is such an outgoing, all out kind of kid & I know for some, it can be a lot. Even for adults.
Today she shouted a classmates name to walk in with her and the girl turned around, gave the nastiest look & started to walk away faster. The look on my daughter’s face is what did it for me.
Has anything like this happened to your kid and how did it make you feel?
This is all new to me- having a child in school. I just don’t remember kindergartners being like that.
I wanted to turn around and take her home lol.
Thankfully summer is right around the corner for us!

Do you make a weekly menu for your household? Are you a SAHM or working (not remotely) mom?

For those who don't make a menu, how do you plan grocery shopping and meals or snacks?

I lost hope

My husband and I are on a big nasty and ugly fighting streak. We just came back from holidays and everything was fine. But then he pushed me to agree to go visit his family this summer and start making plans without considering everything I had shred before about how I feel staying over at his parents place place for 2 weeks and the whole jetlag and exhaustion. Plus how every tine we travel our toddlers routine goes out the door and I just feel overwhelmed.

Nevertheless I agreed cause it’s important to him. But then he kept pushing for more.

I lost it. In front of our son.

We fought for 2 days straight. I called hin the C word and he said I am a bad person. Then he said he doesn’t want to get pregnant again until I sort myself out.

We called an emergency session with our couples therapist.

Ir helped for a few hours.

Now we’re back at fighting spree.

Not even the safe word works anymore.

He lied to me about not buying more hot wheels. We’re now over 100. He has a problem.

And apparently he is taking pictures of my shit around the house to prove that I am also messy. When he knows I am the one who tidies all the time, does dishes, laundry and cooking.

I felt like hitting him. I am losing control. Our son is witnessing some of this. And I know we cannot let it happen. But it does and none of us puts a stop. We both just keep adding.

I just feel like running away and leaving with my son. But I can’t.

My husband is not from here and he has no one but us.

How often a week does your child have beige freezer food?

Chips, fish fingers, potato waffles that kinda thing… we’re slipping into a habit of him having them more & more as it’s the only thing he’ll eat and I feel like a failure of a parent 😭 we’ve tried so hard to give him a good varied diet but he’s become so fussy… feel like such a bad parent
