I just need to vent.

Im scared of my nonverbal autistic son. He has been having behavioral issues for awhile. He's hit me, grabbed my head and headbutted me a few occasions. Hes much bigger and stronger than me at 11 years old. This has been addressed with the appropriate therapists. However his therapists and school teachers have brought up their concerns multiple times in regards to when he hits puberty and his aggressive behavior increases. Theyre worried for my safety and ive been asked to look into seeing about part time group homes in case it gets to a point where I can no longer care for him on my own. Im just devastated. The entirety of his childhood ive had to grapple with the knowing that our lives will never be normal, ill never do the normal things that other moms get to do with their sons. But something kept me going.. and that something I was holding on to was that my baby boy will live with me forever. That was what got me through these dark days. Now I don't have that. Im lost on how to cope. My biggest comfort was knowing I have so much time. Now I have even less time than parents of nuerotypical kids. My heart hurts. And this time I'm not sure if it will ever stop.

FIL still can’t spell name correctly

My FIL was sitting with my 3 year old and writing out all the family members names and when I came through I noticed he’s spelled my name incorrectly. The thing is I’ve been with his son for 16 years now, they’ve been living with us for 2 years, also my name is literally 4 letters long!

At this point I’m starting to feel blatantly disrespected. Like I’ve had 2 of his grandchildren and he can’t be bothered to learn the correct spelling of my first name!

Not quite sure how to deal with it as he’s now teaching my daughter the incorrect name.

How would you feel? Comment what you would suggest I do.

I have vocalized my distaste to my husband over the matter but I’m not sure he’ll say anything.

How are we all feeling?

My son is 6 weeks today and I think this week so far is the most difficult week we’ve had, although I have a feeling that may just become a weekly phrase from now on.

What’s funny is he’s had 2 really good nights of sleep this week but that may be purely because the days have been so rough. He’s struggling with spitting up after feeds at the minute, even when we keep him upright and seems to be showing hunger cues all the time and he hasn’t quite learned how to poo properly yet so we having constipation too. My washing machine has never seen so much action.

Just wondered how many weeks everyone’s at and what their experiences are? Just wanted to vent to other people in the same boat who get it. I feel like friends and family are sympathetic but they’re not living it.

Soo fed up

I swear ive got the most miserable baby ever all he does is scream, feed or sleep, its awful.
(Hes my 2nd baby)

My 1st was demanding but this is another level.

He literally screams all the time if I walk away from him for wee, to do anything, he wants you 1 on 1 all the time and it just isnt possible having a 2yr old aswell.

The occasions he isnt screaming are so few I rekon I could count on 1 hand, could even be no more than 3 occasions ive felt hes not been a misery.

I just would like some reassurance that there's people out there in the same boat and that this is going to pass?

Hes 10 weeks old but it doesn't seem to be improving at all, im starting to question if maybe he has an allergy or something im ebf but I cant think of any other reason why hes so angry all the time 😭

Not being taken seriously

Hey there, just wanted to come on here quick. My boyfriend is just not stepping up at all. I’ve been noticing reduced movements with my baby and not feeling quite right within myself and questioning how my pregnancy is going. He keeps dismissing my concerns i had to go up to triage with my mum got a scan booked in to check on baby, if placenta is working correctly and blood flow. It really worries me how much he dismisses my concerns it very well doesn’t feel like he will be any support when i go into labour. I just am giving up on even speaking to him regarding our baby it does sadden me but i just don’t feel i have trust in him.

Unwanted comments from in laws

Just wanted to know how other mums would deal with unwanted comments from in laws to do with your children. I understand they’re the grandparents but my in laws are doing my head in. Am I overreacting or just being hormonal? These were the comments from yesterday but it’s the tone that’s also rude so I think that plays a big part in how we feel it’s how someone makes the comment rather than just the comment alone. Please give me opinions. I’m happy if anyone tells me I’m overreacting.
My mother in law told me yesterday that my 4 month old is ready for reading and started saying how she sees all the other mums coming into the library reading to their babies and I told her several times that I read to my 4 month old with the books I currently have as I have loads which belong to my older children. She said about 5 times that my daughter is ready to be read to so I had to also repeat myself and tell her that I do read to her.
Secondly, when she was holding my daughter she started crying badly so I went to take her and my mother in law told me my hands were too cold and wouldn’t give me my daughter I had to practically force my hands around my mother in laws hands to take her even though my hands were luke warm so I said to her “do you not want me to take her then?” Then she eventually gave her. Is she meaning to be rude? I just want other people’s opinions. I did have issues with her when my first daughter was born too because she bothered me a lot but I never spoke up to her. I only ranted to my mum and dad.
