Confronting a woman who parked in mum and baby parking ? And now I feel anxious and don’t know how to feel about it

Feeling anxious after incident at supermarket. I have a 6 month baby and 2.5 year old toddler. I parked in mum and baby and was getting both kids out when a middle aged woman parked next to me in a mum and baby space with no children. It angered me but I didn’t say anything. The carpark was empty so she could have parked anywhere. Anyway when I got back in the car with kids and shopping she came out at the same time and left her trolley in front of her car instead of taking it back. I felt so much anger build up. So I told her to take it back and not leave it for someone else. She asked if I have an issue to which I said yes, and she was lazy. 1 she has left the trolley for someone else to clear away and 2 she has parked in mum and baby without having children. At this point she told me to fuck off. So I told her to fuck off and called her a lazy bitch.. then drove off. I am not usually confrontational at all but I felt so angry !!

Was I completely wrong here ?! I fully regret swearing back.

At my wits end with Nursery

My little girl is 16 months old and has been attending a local nursery since Jan.

Pretty much every week i get a call saying shes unsettled and crying and can i come get her.

I have had 6 months of this constantly and feel like shes the only one having a meltdown. She goes 3 days a week full days whilst i work.

Do i persevere and push through in the hope she eventually settles in their eyes or do i look to change?

Its mentally and physically exhausting and affecting me where i basically dont eat all day and i am on edge every-time my phone pings. 😭

Nursery Fun!

Struggling with the heat so lets do a happy post!! Share what you have planned or what you have done for your nursery.

I've just finished painting ours and I'm so pleased with how it turned out 🥰

Job Guilt

How are we dealing with the guilt of not working? I haven’t had an “adult” job because i’m only 22 and worked mainly at farms and dog boarding facilities. When I got pregnant I switched to waitressing because it’s was more money with less hours, less physically demanding and safer. After my baby was born I’ve been staying home and my partner works.

But me and my partner were both used to a lifestyle we weren’t always stressed about money. My LO is 6 months old now, my state doesn’t do daycare vouchers and we have no family around that could watch baby full time so I haven’t been able to get a job with typical hours.

I’ve looked at trying to find a waitressing or bartending job to work on weekends or late nights but I’m having no luck.

How are we dealing with feeling like we’re not contributing? We’ve cut down all the extra cost we could and we’re still struggling. My partner just managed to pick up a second part time job but in combination with his other job he’ll be gone from 5am - 11pm 6 days a week and that isn’t something he’ll be able to keep up long term or something I feel okay about him doing.

Lunch

My 19 month old has just started refusing everything for lunch and I’m all out of ideas so some help would be appreciated like today he’s just had a yogurt and refused everything else

Teething

In the trenches of teething any way to help my little one
