So so embarrassed 😭

Hello everyone,
Feeling super ashamed right now 😭 my daughter's 3 weeks old and it's been really rough. My husband is amazing and has been so so supportive the entire pregnancy and even now. I had preeclampsia and HG, he's been through a lot also, we didn't expect our little girl to make it.

He's just changed jobs after being offered a better wage, so this month is really tough. All the bills are paid, food on the table, everything my daughter could ever need but left us with 88p until payday.

I forgot it's Father's Day today, he's worked so so hard to support us and we've been through so much recently I forgot it's Father's Day. I know it's noone else's problem, but this is such an amazing community I thought I'd ask here incase someone has the ability to help and I can repay back when I'm paid.

I'm fully humiliated and I have some mum friends on here that's why I'm anonymous😭 if anyone could spare a few pounds so I can get this amazing man just even a big chocolate bar and a card to say thank you for letting me not stress during my pregnancy so I could focus on our health.

Good men are few and far between and he's our rock. Just want him to feel appreciated even though I couldn't ❤️

Thank you in advance and I fully understand I should have remembered, there's just a lot going on recently.

Thanks in advance

Baby brain is so real and you are looking after a newborn so don’t beat yourself up about it! If you download the M&S app and join sparks parenthood club you can get the big daddy chocolate bar for free and I’m sure it’s like £10 to buy!!

Having a new baby and knowing everything is on the table and bills paid is the main thing that matters as long as he gets to spend the day with you both and he feels appreciated I’m sure that will go a long way!
If you do have any paint or arts and crafts bits you could always do a little handprint/homemade card from baby. Pinterest has loads of ideas x

co parenting struggles.

Co-parenting is so hard sometimes because why is my baby at the beach at 11 PM? 😣 It’s not something I would’ve been comfortable with, but since it’s his dad’s weekend, I don’t get much say. The hardest part isn’t the lack of control, it’s not being there to watch over him and keep him safe. I pray that our Lord please keeps my baby extra protected tonight and every time I’m not around. 😢🙏🧎‍♀️‍➡️

Rant

My husbands sister came down with her 2 sons (9,7 years old) without letting me know. Her kids don’t listen and always being naughty but she doesn’t tell them off. They hardly come to my house but they only came because they had something important to do near my house which they normally do every Sunday but they came today unexpectedly. Whenever her kids come down they eat all the ice creams and snacks and make my toddler cry as I don’t like my LO to have too much sugar or ice cream. I’m not a b*tch or anything but whenever they come they waste food and drink and finish everything and she doesn’t say anything. They always leave my house in a pigsty and I am half way through my pregnancy it is hard as it is with a toddler doing pregnancy especially as my husband was at work all day as he has a long shift so I have been solo parenting a lot. My LO pretty much keeps to herself and plays or she’ll watch something if she gets bored of playing. Today they came and eldest some tried breaking her new toy even tho I’m repeated telling him not to in front of him mum. I really don’t mind them coming but they don’t do those sort of stuff in their own house so why in other people’s house and their mum rarely ever discipline them. It is now 1:45am and I am left cleaning up after a long day.

Anyone else getting tired of Colorado?

I couldn't even go shopping with some lady trying to hit me and trying to take my child. This lady was part of a bigger group and they were also stealing stuff. There was only one cashier and he didn't know what to do. There's no security at that store anymore which sucks.

Caravan holidays

Hi all, I’m looking for a caravan holiday as we have 2 year old and I’m pregnant so we need something cheap and easy. Has anyone got any recommendations or advice? I’ve never done a caravan holiday before !

Venting about all the snacks!!!

My husband goes to bed around 2, me at 12 or 1am. He gets up with our kids as early as 6am if they’re up and hungry and he’ll give them something quick like snacks, bar, pouch, pirates booty. Usually he’ll doze off on the couch or he’ll just be up for the day with them at 6! Sometimes they’ll ask for several snacks before I wake up at 7-7:30 so when I come down to make breakfast they’re full on snacks! I feel like a B*** complaining about my husband feeding the kids, at least they’re fed? But I wish he’d put the same effort I put in. I’m talking like, toast a piece of bread or a waffle. Boil water in the kettle and pour it over some oats. Heck even rinse some berries and put it on yogurt.
He says if I want to be uptight about what they eat, I should wake up early and realize he gets less sleep. I go to bed late because that’s my only me time. Our kids are in bed at 9
