Any other morning moms here? ☀️ We usually do parks and activities earlier in the day since my kids have more energy then. I also prefer it to avoid traffic—I’m not a fan of driving at night or during afternoon rush hour. Anyone else?

What should i do?

A long story short,
Me and my bf have a 2 year old. Throughout my pregnancy my bf wasn’t super supportive, once i had our son he was so good for a couple weeks, and since then he has basically left most of it to me. Night feeds, cleaning, food shop, I pay the bills because he is in debt, he does his hobby on either a Saturday or Sunday and an evening or two during the week.. which involves alcohol and drugs.
I do the cooking, washing up, wash his clothes, obviously look after our son.
He will sometimes do the bedtime routine and cook maybe 2/4 times a month.

Anyway, my family think i’d be best without him but somehow i cannot seem to let go. I’m scared I’ll regret it.

Would you stay or leave? And any advice would be appreciated, thank you

Hi Can i see your 7 months old baby’s plate please ???

Mama is out of ideas

Meal times!

How are we coping with meal times?! 😩 Especially those that do it single handedly (my partner is a chef so spends evenings at work) I'm really struggling to juggle trying to keep my 12.5 month old out of trouble/happy whilst I'm cooking dinner and it just all ends up in shambles, i don't like cooking at the best of times but even less when I've either got my little boy tugging at my legs or if i put him in his high chair with toys, he just ends up screaming after 5 mins🤦‍♀️ i don't even know what I'm looking for to be honest just need to know I'm not the only one thats struggling with this part of parenting 😮‍💨 pic of how dinner went tonight for fun 😭🤣

Weaning! 9 months old

Helpppp! I’m trying to do some BLW meals and I’m so stuck!

Does anyone have any easy simple ideas for a very anxious mum!

If you’re at a close friend / relative’s house do you ask if you can eat their foods or snacks or do you just help yourself ?

I’m trying to be better at eating nutritious
meals so I meal prep my meals and snacks. Went to get my snack to see it’s all gone 😒 I’m always the type of person to ask if it’s okay to eat something first if it does not belong to me (even my husband). Like I know Greek yogurt and nuts are his go to snack at night. I’m not gonna eat them all/ the last of it because I know he won’t have anymore - especially without asking!! I’ll add that he probably wouldn’t make a big fuss about this if I did but I still would not.

Is my husband being unhelpful or am I hormonal?

I’m 40 weeks tomorrow. My husband wanted to get some beer yesterday but decided not to in case we needed to go to the hospital. Today I was meant to have sweep but they couldn’t do it because my cervix wasn’t open. So he said he was going to get some beer because baby isn’t definitely coming today. He got himself a pizza for dinner and nothing for me and didn’t greet me when he came home, just went straight to bed.
My issue is 1. How do you know that? 2. He’s pampering himself, meanwhile I’m now having bad cramps and miserable! And 3. The midwife said for me to relax and for him to help with oxytocin and he’s being super unhelpful! I now don’t want to be around him because he’s bad vibes and I’m not feeling very oxytocin-full at all!
