Am I being sensitive?

My partner and I have been trying for 2 1/2 years to conceive our third. For over a year, my partner has been taking hCG shots because he was on TRT. At the start of this year, we got an analysis and turns out everything looked good on his end. Never thought it would be a me issue, but I started to work with a fertility specialist and everything checked out until our HSN they found polyps and I need surgery. It’s going to cost $1700 which he will pay. However, the surgery is an hour away and although he works from home, he says he has to work and said I should Uber or have a family member take me. All my support lives an hour in the opposite direction. So it would be an hour to me, hour to the surgery and then back to me and back home. Would you be upset? I just wanna know if I’m too sensitive. He is paying the surgery should last no longer than 45 minutes, but I am being put out and nervous. Just looking for feedback.

Mother in law!!!

Am I the asshole?! I told my mil on Wednesday that I will do cupcakes for my son on Friday, today, because she has his cousins there every other weekend. I told her 7:30 because I go to my sisters house every Friday. So I get home around 720 and no one’s home. So I wait until 8pm and still there not home! I texted her that we can do it tomorrow because it’s late already! My daughter is sick and my son’s been swimming all day, he’s exhausted.
And she comes back with “wow your going to cancel” like not cancel, postpone because your late. Little extra information: we live right next door to each other so it’s not like they had to drive over to us and they don’t do anything on Saturdays because it’s the sabbath so they’re home all day. They just got back at 8:30! Was I supposed to wait for them and keep my kids up?! My kids father of course thinks I just should have done them quick when they got home of course cause it’s his mother 🤦🏻‍♀️

What "Healthy snacks" do you feed your kids?

Do we just buy food to make snacks or prepared snacks?

Independent to dependent

Hey guys! Before having my beautiful baby girl I was very independent and always made my own money and contributed financially to my and my husbands life. He never asked but that’s just how I was raised and how I’ve always been. After having my baby I became a SAHM because we didn’t have anyone we trusted to watch the baby and he DOES NOT want to put her in daycare. Which I completely understand plus the daycares in our area are WAYYYY expensive. So expensive that if I went back to work my whole check would just be going to them and honestly I am not gonna go to work just to have the whole thing go to someone else and we’d be in the same situation regardless if I worked or not. We’re doing fine financially and bills are paid and she is taken care of but that’s it. We don’t have anyone extra money for fun stuff which is fine at the end of the day. I just feel guilty that my husband is picking up all the stress by himself and we’re living paycheck to paycheck where as before it wasn’t like this. I also have a degree that I’m not using and that also makes me feel guilty. I guess what I am looking for is how do I feel more comfortable being a SAHM. I just am trying not to make myself feel selfish and guilty for not contributing when I’m so use to it.

Holiday Guilt

Anyone else gone on holiday with their 16/17 month old and completely regretted it? We are currently in Spain and I can’t believe how hard it is. We are with family however as my son is teething he just wants me and booobs 🥵 there are hazards everywhere, all the flooring is rock solid shiny stone, hot and slippy flooor by the pool with little steps to different levels, doesn’t really like being in his pram but also just runs away on reins (or tries and pull the other way and just falls over) I just feel like I should be having the best time like I ‘see’ on social media but it’s soooo difficult!!!

Help me understand

Please help me understand is this normal ?? For a boy 5yo (closer to 6) to be nasty all the time ?!
The boy just come out of the bath/shower and while drying himself he just pee on the floor .. like why? How? And the toilet is right there ! I'm so upset at myself cause I definitely overreacted but come on boy! He keeps doing nasty things it disgust me and tend to make me so angry ! Is this actually normal ? Am talking .. wiping the toilet seat with his hand; wiping his poopy butt with 1 piece of paper (like come on!) Always having to tell him and watch him wash his hand with soap otherwise he pretend he does it only) like idk mama, he's my son and we taught him and keep teaching him about being clean and his body and all but am getting so frustrated by his behavior .. I honestly wonder if it is common in boys ??!
And if you think not please give me tips as my brain is 🤯 🤢
