Do you drive or walk to the bus stop? You could always feed baby a little early even if you don’t think they’re super hungry. If you’re nursing and driving to the bus stop you could drive over early and then nurse in the car. Or do the same thing but bring a formula bottle.

Worst case scenario (I’m assuming the bus pickup doesn’t take a huge amount of time) feed baby for just a few minutes to tide them over, so you still make it to the bus stop in time.

If kids walk from the bus stop maybe you can make friends with a neighbor who would let your child walk with their family in a pinch.

Are these red flags from my boyfriend and how do you move forward?

My boyfriend and I are on vacation and I was on my cycle and got blood on my bikini while we’re at the pool with our daughter. I accidentally sat on one of our daughters new stuffed animal and got a bit of blood on it. So I wrapped the stuffed animal with a towel and also quickly wrapped a towel around myself. As we’re walking away going to get our kid to go to our room, I realize my towel is falling off and ask him to plz grab the stuffed animal from me (which is wrapped in a towel) so I can keep my towel from falling off. He moves his hand away and says ew, then he goes I’m not just gonna touch that like that. So I go why are you acting like a damn sissy like you haven’t seen my blood before (he’s watched me give birth). So he gets so upset by my comment and starts telling me how I’m so disrespectful. I keep walking and tell him it’s not the time since our kid was coming up to us. Then, we get to the room and instead of letting me wash off first, he hops in the shower before I could even think about it. So eventually we talked and he apologized but I just don’t like that behavior and did not expect him to act like this in that moment. We’ve been together for yearss and I know he’s not a squeamish person when it comes to blood. So when I asked he basically said he felt it was gross that I expected him to just grab the stuffie without making sure it’s properly wrapped first when it was. But am
I crazy for feeling like it shouldn’t be that big of a deal for him to grab it with or without it being wrapped in a towel ? It’s my blood not a strangers. But anyway idk what’s up with men sometimes. He was so upset the rest of the day he told our daughter he didn’t wanna give her a hug or a kiss when she asked. Like yall he’s a good man when it comes to many things but he does stuff like this and I’m like wtf am I doing with him? We’re supposed to get married soon and I’m questioning all of that based on some of these things I’ve been noticing lately.

How are you doing it all?

My husband is not happy with our sexlife. I don't do it enough and don't do porn star performance.
I try to pour into myself regularly, skincare, hair, light makeup, dressing up, gym and dance classes.
He listed these things out like they were a problem. I'll ask him to watch the kids so I can xyz. Gym and dance classes are normally after I put the kids to bed but thats when he wants my time and attention.
He literally argued for an hour last night. He's done this 3 times, always late into the night when im not in the head space and super tired. By the time he finished his point and calmed down, I believe it was 3 am. And we didnt go to bed until 5 am. He wanted sex, I participated and performed it was enjoyable at first but then it got annoying. I was tired and these days sleep always sounds better than sex he just took so long to finish I was actually getting pissed off.
Today I woke up, I threw on jeans and a tshirt. Basic moisturizer and sunscreen no makeup and clipped my hair back. I wanted to cry. Im worried he's gonna keep complaining about my hobbies and I'll end up quitting to keep the peace.
I'm not perfect, dishes and laundry pile up, the hoise isnt always presentable and food isnt always done sometimes he comes home from work to cook and clean. He feels like hes always helping me with my job but no one is there to help him do his.
I have an appointment next month hoping the Dr can give me something to improve mood and productivity.

Lack of interest in partner normal?

Resentment and disinterest towards my partner. I only received one month maternity leave and I had to go back to work immediately after that luckily, my job is flexible and allow me to work from home for an extra month with a valid doctors note since I had a C-section but now it’s been two months and I’m back working and I’m miserable but I don’t show it at work and I have sour taste towards my partner for reasons that I don’t even understand. I feel that he could just be very lazy sometimes and I do the bulk of the work taking care of baby, cleaning the house, picking up after him, working for 40-50 hours a week then coming home exhausted. He was like this before I don’t know why it bothers me so much now. He’s a good guy and respects me and I think he makes a good dad. What is wrong with me? Is it the hormones and me being away from my baby or what?

How to deal with terrible neighbors?

I’m not sure how to handle this situation. My neighbors are not the friendliest people and have a long history with the cops but we’ve addressed the issue before with littering in our yard. There’s a gate there so they are now intentionally throwing their trash how to handle this situation. I don’t know. I just don’t want it to fall back on me and my son and our safety.

15mo Not Eating Well & Making himself Gag

My 15mo boy is not eating very much anymore and all the things he liked he now refuses & then he sticks his hands in his mouth to the point it makes him gag & I dont know why or what to do
First time mum & worrying.
He only really eats Weetabix with a mashed banana & potato waffles or potato based items and crisps or biscuits & yogurts. Occasionally eats chicken nuggets too.
he used to eat more happily like blueberries/grapes/kiwi but now won't even pick them up & veggies are the same. He also doesn't drink milk anymore since the switch from formula, he won't touch it.

I don't know why he's making himself gag either.

Help a stressed mumma please 😔
