Teething relief!

Please send any and all tips and tricks for teething relief because we are going THROUGH it! My son is 14 Mon and is waking up several times each night screaming in pain. We are giving Tylenol and sometimes alternating with ibuprofen. We are currently driving around at midnight to get him to calm down. What teething toys/ cold things did you find that brought your littles ones some relief.

The gel keys!! You can also take a wash cloth, get it wet and freeze that too!!

CARROTS. You can freeze them or just take them straight out of the fridge. Plus they like the flavor! It’s the best! Also works with celery! That and toothbrushes. They get right into those grooves!

This may sound strange but frozen French fries, it’s one of the few things that works for my daughter she pretty much refuses everything else, I only thought to try it because my dad would always eat frozen French fries and I happened to have some on hand 😅

Affair

I could use advice and help!! Unfortunately my husband cheated on me for months following my postpartum(online chat rooms and money for videos) with one specific person. I’m devastated and I don’t know what to do or feel. I feel disgusting. He’s an amazing father and usually an husband so I don’t know what went wrong. I need to hear some positive advice! Please!

I find myself getting quite agressive with my children

Please be kind as I am struggling and looking for help because I hate it!
I have two young children and I don't know what's wrong with me but whenever I am going through a lot, stressed and most especially frustrated/angry it's like something takes control over me and I become very agressive with my little ones without wanting to. I shout, I grab their hand quite hard and I'm just not very gentle.
I can see how much it affects them and always apologise after and give them a hug while I explain why I did what I did. That I was frustrated, but I shouldn't have reacted that way. I haven't been kind/gentle with them.
It's just me on my own and I do find it really hard. I can't afford a sitter and have no family near me or friends. What can I actually do? Because if I carry on like this I would rather give them up. As heart breaking as it is, I often think they'd be better off with another family who doesn't have such a short fuse

For the mommas who are just holding it together

Just thought I’d post this to hopefully make another momma feel a little better. My 2 year olds plate today, chicken dinosaurs, hash-browns and barbecue sauce. Sometimes a quick freezer grab feels like you’re not doing the best for our little ones but my kid said it was the best!

would you still feed your 1yo this?

I wanted to make marry me chicken so I bought sun-dried tomatoes without checking the label first… Guidelines say it’s OK but I don’t know if I trust the guidelines completely

HONESTLY…. Am I the only mom that did not know to enroll in public kindergarten you so it in the spring (February-April) ?
I did not even know to do it in july

I also do not get how this means I could possibly not see the school or meet the teacher prior to sending her! I do not want to be disruptive I wish I had known how it worked😭

Can't put baby down without him screaming the house down

Can't cook, go to the loo, do anything for my 4 year old that doesn't require more than one hand. I feel awful for complaining because he's everything i ever wanted and such an easy baby and this newborn stage is so fleeting but I'm really struggling holding him all day and all night
