How often do you hang out with friends after having a baby??

Hubby and I used to have a busy social calendar, and even after I had baby I still tried. But now baby is almost 2, plus we have some changes in the friend group. We are barely hanging out with people. Nor do we have the energy to. I’m low key sad about it and can’t wait to be friend my kid’s friend’s parents when she is older. Are most people still able to stay social while their baby is young?

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?

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.

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?

Getting paid to read

Anybody heard of this or done it? Does it pay well? What was your experience? I work a 9-5, but I still need extra cash, especially in this economy!

Message for me please

I caught my husband cheating. We have 2 children and 1 due this month. Bad timing!
He said he’d call it off but I have reason to believe he was with her today at lunch. Please can someone help me, sending a message from their phone to her to see if she was at the lunch spot (he was but it’s a weird place to take himself to!)

I’ve drafted something out and have the number so it’d be so easy to do but would bring me all the truth and clarity before baby is here!

Please respond if you’re happy to help me 🙏

Feel sad

I feel so overwhelmed lately. I talk to my husband and a few family members but I feel like I have no true friends. I want to talk to someone who will listen and be there for me without judgement. Seems like it’s too much to ask. Anyone else feel this way sometimes?
