Baby in bedroom during intimate time

Hello, I really don't want this to be controversial. I understand that we can never know what goes on in a little humans brain or what they will remember.

That being said, I have a 16 month old. And we are trying for another baby. We live with my elderly mom but our bedrooms are on the opposite side of the house. To avoid her hearing us or knowing what's going on we shut the door. My baby has separation anxiety so she would cry the whole time if we locked her out or put her in her playpen. Telling my mom or asking her to watch my baby would be more awkward for us than having her in the room, and we cant exactly afford a hotel or a sitter so she is in there with us. We play a baby video for her and give her lots of toys to play with and she does. She ignores us. I wish I had a better solution.

Unsure about pregnancy

Found out at just over 3 weeks I was pregnant with our 2nd and am now 5. Spent the last of these few weeks questioning if I really want to go ahead with it. I’ve got none of the excitement and happiness I experienced with our 1st. And even though this is a planned pregnancy I’m questioning everything about it working out, finances etc. bought a 3 bed house this year and I’m not overly happy with it as it’s too small and I can’t imagine there being 4 of us in it. I love the little life we have and everything mostly runs smoothly. My 1yr old is like my little best friend and I’d feel so guilty for him and I worry how the impact would be on him. I’ve got no one I can talk too as I’m scared to tell my mum as despite having 3 of her own she keeps trying to put me off having another yet so I don’t think I’d get the right support from her. My husband is excited and said he’d be gutted if we didn’t but supports me no matter what. I’m definitely not done at 1 and I want my lo to have a sibling. I’m so torn and confused 😫

I fall out of love more and more everyday

Somehow I started feeling more like my husbands mother or maid than his wife. I slowly dislike him more and more every day. I get annoyed at things I used to think were cute. I don’t want him touching me, I’m not really interested in trying so hard for him anymore, and I have zero sex drive.

I told him I can’t do this anymore and he promises to give him time and he can fix it, and I want to believe him but I know he can’t. I feel like mentally I already separated and that emotional tether has been severed.

Heatwave

Would you send your child to nursery during this heatwave?

My daughter goes to a private nursery so it doesn’t matter if she goes or not but I don’t know if to send her into nursery of Thursday. Where we live it’s supposed to be 34°C and I have a bad feeling about sending her to nursery on Thursday.

What would you do?
