Father’s Day…

As Father’s Day is approaching what’s everyone getting their partners?

It’s my partners first Father’s Day, he doesn’t wear jewellery, the last keyring I got him came off eventually but thinking of getting him a personalised one or a personalised top! On the other hand was thinking of booking somewhere that him and little one could go together.

Just looking for ideas, I’m one that goes all out on gifts🩷

Ive ordered this & have booked a roast https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4496135679/personalised-fathers-day-balloon-gift?ref=share_ios_native_control 🩵

We're going for an England shirt, obviously for the world cup, havent decided if i want to personalise it with our daughters name and year yet:), we're also going out for dinner :)

For my partners first fathers day i ordered him a custom "DADA" hoodie off etsy. Sent the seller some of our sons newborn clothes and they embroidered them onto the hoodie to say dada.

I ordered a hoody on Etsy which has the first photo of them together stitched into it along with her DOB. Also ordered a tshirt for baby with ‘first father’s day’ and then daddy and her name with 2026 on and some cookies to be delivered with daddy on them 😁
If you’re looking at ordering something personalised then I’d order ASAP especially with places like Etsy as they will stop orders soon so they can be delivered in time!

Mixed emotions

I don’t think he deserves a birthday gift ever again from me

I bought a bottle of Prada cologne for my husband for his birthday. It was about $150. He opens it up, looks at it, and says cool. The very next day while we’re in the car he tells me the cologne I got him was “mid grade” and he really wishes I got him the Gucci one instead. Then he proceeds to tell me about how his best friend’s wife always buys his best friend the super duper expensive ones (I’m talking $200-$300). Oh and it gets better. He also called me cheap because I bought my brand new Nike Dunks for 40 bucks instead of paying the regular $150 for them. So you’re criticizing me for saving money 🧐🧐🧐🧐

Am I being money shamed? 🤔

I’m pretty sure I need to throw the whole husband away at this point 😐

Cheating

How do I tell my partner I know he’s cheated on me without sounding psycho I went through his phone???? 🤣🥲

Questions

Hi so I’m a ftm and will be giving birth very soon. I just moved to New Orleans from Ohio so my family and my partners family does not live in Nola so they will be traveling. I’ve never experienced postpartum or even pushing a baby out so I don’t really know what to expect. I honestly don’t want have any visitors the first couple of weeks. But for the sake of not starting a fight I’m going to have them. When my baby gets here I feel like if you’re going to be here you should be helping with whatever I feel like I need and me and my partner shouldn’t have to pay for anyone’s expenses when they get here? My partners mom is the type to get here, says she’s going to help and then expects someone else to pay for it. She does things to the praise of things and not actually out of the kindness of her heart. I’m not trying to sound rude at all. Please help

Friends

Does anyone wanna be a BFF? I’m 38 I live in York PA but I don’t care where you’re from. I like tattoos cats deep conversation and I’m looking for a genuine connection.

Anyone else had to just drop their career all together?

So I had my first baby at 38 and now she’s almost two and I think we’re ready for baby #2 and of course there’s no room for delay as my age is something I do factor in. Not because I’ve struggled to get pregnant thankfully but because I am at a point I life where I feel like it’s not something I wanna put off at this stage.
However I’m self employed and it’s the type of job that just isn’t complimentary to being a mother. It’s a bit of an all or nothing job so I’ve had to decide that I might have to hit the pause button while I finish completing my family as that’s comes above everything.
But I’m also sad and struggling to let go. I spoke to my friend she said maybe I didn’t want another baby bad enough!!! She said if I wanted to have another baby that I wouldn’t care about my job.
But that just isn’t true at all. I think it’s perfect normal to accept that my work might have to go on the back burner but I’m also aloud to be a bit sad.
I’m more than being someone’s mother but for now I don’t see how I can work and focus on bringing life into the world.

Has anyone else been in the same boat?
How did you handle it? How did you come out the other side?
