If your child has an exceptionally loud scream or is screaming most of the day, would you be open to the nanny putting in hearing protection? (Only when directly holding and watching and soothing baby of course)

It’s almost time

Ive been counting down the days to stop breast feeding my daughter. Her dad and I agreed at 18 months. Shes 17 months now. I’m excited but Im also not sure if I’m mentally ready to stop. Idk. I’m feeling mixed emotions about this journey. I need pointers bc putting her on the boob is literally the only way I put her to bed. Like let me have one night so I can sleep on my stomach pls lol

Too emotional

I’ve been crying since about 3 this morning it’s now 5:50 because my little girl won’t go to sleep. She woke up and just won’t settle and it’s really getting to me. I’m getting so overwhelmed with her fussing and crying and the fact she won’t settle. She’s 10 months today and I’m honestly loosing the plot, I just feel like I’m failing and I’m getting so stressed and exhausted.

I’m ready to cheat

3 months postpartum Married and our 1 year anniversary coming up before this relationship I was with a woman for 6 years and I’m starting to realize I never wanted to be with a man lol maybe because I’ve never been taking out of my masculine energy. I love woman and always have, I feel like if my masculine side has to show I would rather give to a woman who deserves it I’m suffering because I’m tired of the same bs I’m ready to go enjoy a females company

If I’m up I’m throwing up or crying I don’t know what else to do besides sleep myself into a migraine 😭 it’s currently 3 am and I have a migraine I’m nauseous and tired but can’t sleep and can’t stop the tears. This is my first and only pregnancy I will have I’m completely traumatized.

2nd baby

Hello. My husband and I have talked about having a 2nd baby. Today I am 38 years old ..I'm almost 40 to have a 2nd baby. I recently had a gyn appointment in February and I am doing good. I have a Dr's appointment in August for my annual. I will talk to her about it as well. I have looked into some helpful postpartum resources. But I think I'm. Missing something. What else can I do to prepare for a 2nd baby that I might not be thinking of? Health-wise, etc. Any advice? Any suggestions?
