Sister in law problems

So me and my sil fell out when my baby was born, she turned on me and turned her family on me and almost split me and my partner up all because she got angry I wouldn't let her babysit my newborn (i had only met her a handful of times previously)
Instead of trying to get to know me and build a relationship/trust she demanded my partner take our newborn to her house and leave me at home (we had no issues previously just no real relationship) of course I said no but made it clear she was welcome to visit any time but she decided if she couldnt see my baby without me she wasnt interested! She sent me a ton of abusive texts saying I was weird for neing with my newborn all the time!
Shes very stubborn and my partner has always said its her way or no way!
My daughter is now 5 and we see her at family gatherings thats all, shes very fake towards me but at the se time passive-aggressive and so is her husband, he tries his best to avoid me (if she said the sea was red he would agree)
Ive struggled with this for years and even reached out to try build a friendship but its always thrown back in my face.
My partner knows she is nasty but still he wont tell her.
I just feel lost how to act around her and her husband, I tend to shy away but im thinking thats making me look like im in the wrong when in fact she 100% should be apologizing to me.
How do I act towards them?

I personally could never be with someone who couldn't support me and back be up. That's crazy work when you're supposed to be creating your own family. I also don't allow my children around people who don't respect me and my boundaries. They are instantly removed and I won't think twice about it. You just have to decide how important she is to YOUR family, but the real issue here is your partner, he should be the one keeping HIS SISTER in line, not worrying about stepping on toes. My husband has cut family off for being disrespectful to me. Because I'm his chosen family and the mother of his children.

Do you keep a bin in your bathroom? (Odd question I know)

I keep a bin in all my bathrooms and find it really weird when I go to someone’s home and they don’t have it in theirs. Especially when there’s women and teenage girls and they have to walk to the kitchen bin to throw their sanitary pads or tampons away.

Feeling so alone

I’m 7 months pregnant today. My child’s father and I just can’t seem to work. I’m feeling so guilty for bringing a child into a broken home, and feeling so alone. I know it sounds dumb but I’m missing intimacy which I haven’t had in so long. I also can’t get over the fact that I’ll have to share custody with him, I can’t imagine handing my baby over to him and not being able to keep him with me.
I have never felt so dumb, so alone, and just shameful.

Boring/ no sex

I’m so tired of having no sex with my partner. People go on about men have needs well erm women do too! I’m 6 months pp and i think we’ve had it like 3 times since little one arrived. I constantly feel horny.

Before i was pregnant our sex was often and it was good, i enjoyed it. He stopped giving me head before pregnancy and it was mainly because he didn’t enjoy it but would do it now and then to please me.He made a comment after I had the baby saying it will be a while before he eats me out again…

1. What makes him think I want him there so soon.
2. How dare he even be rude like that after I’ve just given birth
3. It’s been 6 months now and I’ve still not received it.

It’s not even just about that but our sex is so boring and all happens so quick. He even tried to skip foreplay last time and I was like no what are you doing!!

I suggested role play to ramp it up a bit and he laughed at me and when I said no I’m being serious he pulled a weird face. I also like being dominated and he use to be good at doing that and again it’s all gone. I said about getting new underwear and said to him why don’t he pick and he was like why what’s the point it will just end up on the floor…. I mean true but I’m trying to feel abit sexy for myself and him.

I feel like he has lost interest all together. He barely kisses/ hugs me unless I ask!

And this is the worst part but I find myself romanticising about past sexual connections lately because of being so sexless. I feel guilty but I can’t help it.

Need friends! 🥲

Honestly guys, I love being a SAHM but it can be sooo lonely sometimes. I moved out here to the Sacramento area for my fiance and left my college town where all my friends were, I’ve been here for a year now and I still have yet to make any friends, especially now that I’m a mom and a young mom at that. Then I found this app but it’s hard to find people that actually want to carry a conversation and get to know me, I understand mom life is busy so I don’t expect to text all day but like most convos on here don’t go past “hi how are you?” Loll idk maybe it’s just me. But I’m sooo in need of girl time so if anyone is interested in building an actual friendship let me know haha 🤍

Godparent gifts

What’s the most thoughtful godparent gift you have found/ given/ received?
I am having my son baptised, the godparents are not religious. I have a great godfather gift but need godmother gifts. The godmothers are sisters and my best friend. The best friend has been a particularly amazing support for our family and I want something special.
