Pronouns

I became friends with a mum on here I have 2 daughters 5 and 3. And her children who were born female 5 and 3 as well. We met up everything was good , something happened on the playground and my daughter came to report to us saying “she hit me” the mother said my child isn’t a she , my child is a they , you shouldn’t assign your child a pronoun before they can decide. She was quite annoyed and angry when she said that.
I was shocked because I’ve never met someone who has new pronouns. I let it go my daughter came back and reported the same thing and the mother says the same thing and began teaching my daughter about pronouns and that my daughter can basically decide whether she’s a “they them etc and said all the pronouns available” I decided to end the friendship because l don’t want my children to learn that kind of thing just yet and I’m not really into that per say.
What would you do was l wrong

Stay at home mama

Hey! I recently became a stay at home mom. My husband encouraged it and I thought while she is young this would be prime time to do it.

Here’s things I’m struggling with and need advice or suggestions on how to over come them

- finding time for myself
- not making my own money (I’ve never had to depend on anyone for money)
- cleaning routine (we used to have a cleaning lady once a month) I feel I could do this but it’s hard with a crawler on my hands —or am I making excuses
- I’m still pumping 4 times a day (I’m ok with this I just feel I am still scheduling my day around pumps)
- I recently told my husband I would like to go to a workout class on Tuesdays and told him I wouldn’t go every Tuesday and he said have fun and suggested I’d be taking baby to (this was for me to have me time) I told him I wouldn’t be taking baby

Thoughts suggestions
Please be nice as I’m newly negativing this

Would you let your child miss the last half day of school ( uk
Mums).

He’s in year one. I am stuck as there’s no breakfast club or after school clubs as it’s the last day

Have you done this before

My mom is not as present as I thought she would be

Just wanted to come on here and vent a little bit. I’m a FTM and my mom absolutely loves children. She always wanted to be a grandma but said she never wanted to pressure me into having kids if I didn’t want any.

I’m so grateful for my little one. He has filled a hole in my heart I didn’t know even existed. I’m also very lucky to have a husband who is very hands on and we split taking care of him as fairly as possible. I’m out on maternity leave and my husband is back at work so majority of the caretaking is on me right now.
This is not a complaint that I don’t have a good support system in my house.

It’s just my mom doesn’t help as much as she says she wants to. She says she will come and help me clean or take care of baby but when she’s here she just wants to carry the baby and nothing else. She won’t feed him, burp him, change his diaper. Nothing other than hold him. I asked her to change his diaper for me and she said no she doesn’t do diapers. Im guessing she thinks this is doing me a favor just holding him so I can get stuff done around the house but not really when I still have to take care of him and when I do take care of him she’s criticizing me for something. Sometimes I lash out at her because I get frustrated but for me it’s like why are commenting if you don’t even do anything yourself?? I’m starting to think she just likes the idea of being a grandma?

I have a doctor appointment and she’s the only person I can ask for watch baby for an hour and I’m nervous. I know it’s only an hour but she refuses to even learn how to heat up a bottle so I’m like am I coming home to chaos??

Vent over if you made it this far thanks for reading

Husband divorcing me today

Filing papers to divorce me today for his birthday.

He always liked to ruin every holiday. He has never had any sympathy for me. I am just a baby making vessel to him.

He stole all my ideas and got my dream job and now he is abandoning me and our son.

It hurts so bad.

Daycare just venting

My babys 2.5 and shes been going to daycare since late May. At first she only cried for me but she started liking it a lot then she randomly started hating it and then she got sick and was out for a week. Now last week she was back and she hates it. She cries bad the entire day, I thought it was because of another new baby who cries a lot. But its to the point where she will see me pack her blanket or we get up early in the morning and she starts freaking out and screaming horribly. She will even randomly think about it and start crying. I dont know what to do anymore
