I feel bad for doing too much tv time

I have plantar fasciitis in my left foot. I cant walk or move around much for my son. He also doesnt like playing with his toys much when its just me and him. But with his dad he will play but dad needs breaks sometimes. Like tohnight hes half asleep on the couch. Ive been slaving away in the kitchen and I have ms rachel on cuddled up with my son. What can I do to get my 3 year old to play with his toys more often?

Hitting and hurting

Posting incognito because I’m embarrassed

I’m really struggling at the moment and I feel like I can’t do this.

My son 18 months is hurting me non stop. All he does is hit me kick me pull my hair or hit me with objects. I’m unwell at the moment so I don’t have the energy to do all our normal activities. My son has all his toys in reach but he just uses them all to hurt me or he will just jump all over me and hit me.

I’ve tried all the gentle parenting ‘gentle hands’ ‘I won’t let you hurt mummy’ I’ve showed him gentle hands. But nothing is working

My partner also does things like throw teddies at me infront of my son. Hit me In a joking way or trip me up ect. I keep asking him to stop but he doesn’t

What do I do ☹️

How do we all juggle chores/getting things done?

Hi ladies! Wanting to get everyone’s rundown on how they manage chores, house projects, etc. while full-time and with pets.

Needing ideas on how to get a good flow going 😅 right now I just feel like I go all day until like 2 hours before bed. That’s when I get to wind down lol husband and I swap the baby around while the other does x,y,z. 🤭💕 any advice is appreciated!

Husbands confidence

My husband is still not confident having the baby on his own without me in the house 🙄 baby is 6 months. I have another older child who i need to be there for too and this is making it so hard. He is too scared to bath her and do basic care other than rock her to sleep. I have taught him as much as I can and we did a baby first aid course together. I think it's time to bite the bullet and just go out, let him sink or swim but I feel so bad for my baby. Any ideas? This is his first child, my other child has a different father.

What would you do: correct husband for child’s comfort or let it go? AITA?

If you were at your wits end (24/7 SAHM doing the vast majority of all things house and child related) and asked your husband to change son’s pjs because he got them all wet with water he poured on himself and he grabbed pjs that were very temperature and situationally not ideal. Like our son had a temperature yesterday and is still getting over a cold, it’s warm where we are, we are co sleeping due to his upset nature from his cold, and my husband grabbed full zip up Christmas tree FLEECE pjs.

Now I’m already irritated by my son’s misbehaving he finally is getting his energy back post cold but I haven’t yet and I am struggling (husband is not sick) so I say to him hey I think he will be too hot in those can you grab something else and he just puts the pjs down and leaves our son in just a diaper. Leaves the room… I know he’s thinking “fine then do it yourself”

I specifically try not to nitpick or micromanage when he does try and do stuff so not to deter him and make him feel like he can’t do anything right .. BUT I also don’t want to put his ego and feelings above my son’s comfort and well being. Am I crazy for that? AITA?

I don't know what to do

Here lately my s/o has been accusing me constantly of cheating. Just because we have had s** in 6 months(because I had a hysterectomy). So any little things he Nick picks over. He's constantly been going thru my phone. I can't leave him rn due to several underlying problems. But I don't how much more I can't put up with everything.

Please help me understand..

I’ve been married for 8 years and feel lonely and unloved. My husband is still in love with his ex that died in a tragic way. He had seen it happen and has been really messed up mentally. He tells me how he wishes I would be more like her. How he misses her so much. Why can’t I try to look more like her, to trick his brain to think she is still here. It’s like I’m not the one for him and she way. Like I will never live up to the expectation of her. I want to feel like I’m enough but he says I haven’t made him feel like she did. That I’ve been mean to him and I’ve hurt him. He says that he wants another girl around to fill the void, sexually and not sexually. Wants to have a threesome (even suggested a girlfriend at one point) no matter how many times I’ve made it so known I’m uncomfortable with it and don’t want to do that. But I’m told I’m given everything I want and I should be able to give him this one thing. everyone tells me I need to leave. That if he is going to act like that then he’s not for me. That he has to much healing and trauma to get through before he continues in a marriage. But I am in love with him. I’ve been in love with him since I was 7 years old.. I married him. I had children with him. He is it for me. I just feel so lost. I don’t know grief. I’ve never lost someone I loved. I don’t know how to help him get past this or at the very least, love me like her or maybe if I’m lucky more than her.
