I'm sorry but who gave you the right to start walking this early??

in our community

I need to get something off my chest i told my daughter to pee in the public pool. Not a friend’s pool but a big public pool splash park and I want to know if others do similar?

Before you castrate me in the comments I only did it because i was there with 4 little kids as the only adult and I didn’t want to drag all 4 wet kids out and into a gross public bathroom when we had just arrived and I made them all use the bathroom before we started playing but you know how kids are. Anyways she refused to do it even though she’s only 4, she kept saying that people are going to know and I was like JUST DO IT 🫣 I ended up having to take all 4 of them into the bathroom because she was too scared to pee in the pool but handling multiple wet kiddos in a setting like that is my least favorite thing and I think the chlorine and stuff just kills most of the germs and also if there’s lots of kids there’s bound to be pee in it from others anyways

I can't cope with my toddler anymore

My little boy is 22 months and has become an absolute nightmare. All day moaning and whining. Screaming and furious tantrums over bath time, nappy change, clothes on, clothes off, bed time, midnight wakes, food, drinking water.....everything is a screaming battle with hitting, throwing things and kicking
In-between these he can be really sweet but it's 10-15 meltdowns a day now...i am on the absolute edge...exhausted and walking on eggshels and trying to take care of his personal hygiene and food needs etc while he fights me and his dad tooth and nail
Should i be looking into behavioural problems or is this standard behaviour? It doesn't seem like it to me...my mum says i was never like this

Intimacy after having a baby

I’m 5 months in to motherhood and I have no urges to be intimate with my partner at all yet, I’m tired so busy 24/7 I feel like I’m letting him down but honestly my baby needs so much from me bouncing/rocking to sleep at night will only contact nap during the day I’m exhausted, is anyone else the same? I used to have a fairly good sex drive and I know the change is upsetting for my partner I love him so much but I’m just drained by the time we get any time alone I’m so touched out even his hand on my leg drives me nuts I just don’t want to be touched anymore by then.

yesterday my sister n law asked me randomly if the pregnancy tests are accurate (newly weds and wanting kids), I told her yes, and my husband said that I should have asked her if she was pregnant & that she was hinting me

cauae she wants someone to talk to, but I dont like to pry too much in her life, since were not very close and i didnt want to make her uncomfortable. should I have asked her?

Pls be honest with me

I have a toddler who’s 17 months. The past month most days I’ve been SO overwhelmed, he’s been making constant winging noises and just wants to be held all the time and I feel terrible (so please don’t be too harsh as I’m fully aware and wish I wasn’t like this) but I lose my patience and end up screaming like ‘oh my god just give me a minute!!’ Or just getting agitated and I’m so worried this will affect his nervous system or he’ll hate me or be wary of me 😭
My brother shouted at his dog on the weekend and my son didn’t react, my brother then told me ‘well you must shout a lot around him then and he’s just used to it because he hasn’t cried’
I do it all alone 24 hours a day 25/7 and I just feel burnt out recently. I don’t want to play with him all day, I don’t want to be climbed over or hung off of all day the dogs bark constantly I’m overwhelmed and sometimes I just lose my cool.
Am I bad and will this affect him? Like his nervous system 😢
Sometimes he’ll cry and walk away from me which crushes me. But he’s fine with me after and will come for a cuddle.

Too hot🥵

How are we coping with baby only wanting to be on us? I’ve put a dry muslin between us, just made us hotter, I’ve put a cool wet muslin between us and we’re both just so miserable, but he still doesn’t want to be anywhere else. Our coolest room is going from 29.4-29.8 and we are both giving up
