Cheating

Hi everyone, just interested in some opinions.

The father of my baby cheated on me last month, I was 25 weeks pregnant. I found out because he gave me an STI.

Things moved very quickly between us. We met in November, found out I was pregnant in March and moved in together end of March.
We went through a rough patch for a few months. My moods haven’t been the easiest to deal with, which would cause some arguments. I suggested we had a break for a few days, as it was becoming a bit intense. This is when he cheated.

Would you ever be able to forgive and move on? Or would this be the end?

Cheating when pregnant

I just discovered he slept with someone else while I was pregnant. Our baby is now 18m. Not sure how to deal with this?

He broke up with me recently anyway.

Yet I still love him 😫

I want to Feel like myself

I want to feel like myself. But if I'm being honest. I didn't even know who I really was before I had my baby girl. How do you find yourself? As your going thru postpartum and dealing with spending all the free time pumping or grabbing something to eat or a shower etc?

Fed up of seeing dog free playground/ kids playing areas/spaces occupied by dogs and their owners.

I have two boys who love the park. We have two local to us, one is a regular park and one has a nice grassed area, splash pad/sandpit/woodland area. These are all heavily signed with “no dogs allowed/dog free area”.

There is constantly people who ignore these signs and allow their dogs into their area. Sometimes these dogs are barking, let off the lead and pooing/weeing around the play equipment.

My little boys do not like dogs are are becoming scared to play at the park.

What can I do? I do not feel safe taking my children to the park and I do not feel like I am able to speak to the owners, especially when on my own with 2 young children. Should I contact the council?

Does your partner call you boring if you refuse to have unprotected sex?

We've been together 15 years, I'm 33 and he's 38. We have 2 children together and don't want any more, he makes it clear if I fall pregnant again then I will have to have a termination.

But anytime he wants unprotected sex he expects me to just be fine with it because he doesn't want to wear a condom then when I say no he always rolls his eyes and says "god sake you're so boring" or tells me I'm the most boring person. Like I'm 33 I don't want unprotected sex, but to call me boring is so rude and I tell him it hurts my feelings but he shrugs it off or laughs and goes "oh shut up, it's clearly a joke"

I think calling someone boring in an intimate part of life isn't a joke, especially when we do have sex and do stuff he says how filthy I am and how unbelievable it is, he just doesn't like me saying no to unprotected sex.

I feel like it's a bit weird to act/respond that way as a nearly 40 year old but anytime I try and mention it he will shut me down as I mentioned. I've asked him to stop, he doesn't.

Kissing babies

I'm just wanting to hear everyone's opinions because my boyfriend and I still can't agree, I think we are both struggling to understand eachothers pov? When my baby was born we both had an agreement that nobody is allowed to kiss our baby, I made this clear with all of my family and friends very early on. We went to visit his gran a couple of weeks ago after she was sadly diagnosed with a brain tumour and told she has a short amount of time left. It was her first time meeting my child and sadly, perhaps the last due to distance(although we are hoping to visit in the near future🤞🏻). When we was there she kissed him on two occasions and when I pulled my partner on it he thought I was cruel for saying she can't kiss our baby as she is dying. I am happy for her to hold him, cuddle him all the rest .. I just don't want anybody to kiss him as I don't think it's worth the risk. He said there's a higher risk bringing him in the car than having his gran kiss our baby. For background context my father is of a similar age to his gran, he has Parkinson's, dementia and has previously suffered a stroke.. he lives across the water from us and everytime we see him I don't know if it's the last but I continously tell him he can't kiss our baby. I'm worried if we visit again this will be a problem as we argued over this on a few occasions. Am I in the wrong?

Bestie Needed ❤️

Mom life is so hard and going through it without a bestie seems to make it harder. Would love to talk to more people! Long distance or close by, I’m down for either! Just someone to talk to throughout the day and genuinely laugh with 😊 I have my husband, but as you all know, it’s not the same! I need some true friends in my life
