Sorry I didn’t text back 🫣

Anyone else feel guilty for having unread messages for over a week? Life with a baby is busy. We need friends and family that understand this and not judge us for not replying….

I also think we need a spa trip😂

Do y'all think my husband is cheating on me? He just doesn't initiate sex. Even for us to have a baby he had to take viagra and following that is when we conceived. But I'm just concerned he doesn't initiate sex it's always me.

Between work and caring for our baby he would realistically have time to cheat but you never know but I just find it weird he doesn't initiate. However we are in marriage counselling and our counselor told us that he is malnourished. He barely eats and sleeps and doesn't look after himself so of course you ain't gonna have energy for sex.

Crazy Ex and he’s the dad..

Girls I need some advice, I’ve found out I’m pregnant (yay!) however, my ex is the baby dad.. he’s so abusive and I left him back in February, he tried getting me back and absorbing my mind again and that’s what got me here.. but I feel like it’s the biggest blessing I will ever have, and already I feel so much stronger and I have a bit of fire back in my belly. However, he’s making me feel awful about how I feel towards keeping the baby and he wants me to get rid, he doesn’t want anything to do with it (he says) thank GOD! I’m just scared about the complications that come with it as he knows it’s his now.. I’ve had so much abuse from his sister too basically guilt tripping me to not keep it 💔💔 has anyone else ever been in a similar situation? I need all the positive vibes I can get right now

Is it cheating?

Is it considered cheating if i find out my partner has been sending snapchat messages to random girls.. messages like “hey hon, wht you upto?” Etc..
Also see the pic below. Is that considered cheating?

Feeling alone and no village

I put out my registry at 20 weeks cause my family wanted it and now I'm literally almost due and silence from my family and husband's family not even calling to ask how I'm doing

Parental regret.

Anyone dealing with this. I feel like I am genuinely losing my mind. I have no support, haven’t been able to chase after or persue the dreams I wanted and I feel completely empty and done. Could really do with talking to others that feel the same because I am really battling.

Feeling defeated.

A couple months ago I had to quit my job to stay home with my 2 kids. We tried to apply for financial day care assistance before this and were completely denied. Now I applied for food benefits since we are down to one income. Still waiting on that. Not very much income and very little savings. Maybe 2 months rent before we are drained. I've been looking for a a job that could do when my husband is home or when a parent can watch , basically Sat-Mon but I can't find anything. It's been almost 2 months and haven't gotten close to anything that works. I thought about door dash but not sure it's even worth it considering the gas and wear and tear on my car and can't afford full coverage on insurance on it anymore. Thinking about starting a business but just in the beginning stage and have to apply for a loan.. it will take weeks or months to get started.. and there are personal circumstances that are making this even more stressful than it already is.. I'm hanging by a thread.. if you have any good suggestions of what I could do I'm all ears! For reference I am in Western Washington.
