I haven’t started yet but as a preparation I already bought washable covers for her car seat and also washable underpads to protect our couch. Just in case she’s having accidents basically.
We also have a potty for her since a few months just to get familiar with it already basically so that she won’t be scared.
I hate my life!!!
I love my daughter and I do love my partner but my god he is so fucking lazy.
I know he works hard for us but why does everything have to fall on me to do as im a stay at home mum
I dont get breaks, my family isnt close by but my partners family live 10 mins away and they barely help and dont take any notice of our daughter
Im pregnant with our second and i dont know if im happy about it or really even want the baby even though we was trying for the baby.
My partner doesnt know how to cook, never cleans or knows how to do washing, his mum did everything for him, she said its cause she loves her kids but that doesnt help them in the future, he cant even pick up after himself, his bedside table is full of cans and stay for months until I get fed up and clean them cause he never does it cause hes never had to. I thought living together after 2 years he'd learn to change but he is still the same and im exhausted
im left to do everything even with our daughter she is 15 months old and he has given her a bath about 10 times and has moaned everytime ive asked him to do it
I just dont know how I'm going to cope with the second baby, I dont really have any friends and I dont leave the house often as we live in a little village with rubbish transport and i dont drive so nothing is close by.
Ive jusy had an argument with my partner and saod I was going to bed early and left him with our daughter and within 10 mins hes brought her up to our bed as she isnt sleeping in her room and sleeps in our bed
I don't even get 10 minutes to myself 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

One day a week where you could put your two children in nursery for free or have them at home with you, what would you choose? You are off work, you work the other 4 days and they are in nursery all that time. Children are nursery age so let’s say 4 and 1.
I have Wednesdays off work but have the children in nursery full time as money isn’t an issue. I’m not sure whether I should feel guilty about this.

We're on a family holiday and my toddler woke up early as always so I got up to play with him. My husband slept in then when I was wanting to get breakfast sorted he was watching TikTok videos.
I made a comment about how we should maybe have a basket for phones as we're on holiday and he said that I was being controlling when holidays are for relaxing.

When did you introduce your little one to cartoons? I don’t want an iPad kid but to see what they like. My baby likes Mickey Mouse and the Mickey Mouse clubhouse

Would you rather a smaller home to have a bigger life or stretch every month to have the forever home but not be able to do as much? I want the bigger life but husband wants the forever home rather than something smaller that we could still have as a forever home

I really dislike talking to my husband about appointments my son has. My son goes to therapy twice a week minus the other specialty dr appointments any ways every time I talk to my husband about it’s like I’m talking to a child we only have 1 car he works morning Tuesday- Sunday and Thursday- Sunday at night I also don’t have my drivers license anyways I’ve been told him I could take the medical cabs when my son has appointments and bring my youngest with us but he told me not to do that and every time we have to miss appointments I always make sure to ask him if I need to reschedule any appointments but he acts like a child he’s always like when the day comes we will worry about that I’m the day is never promised and my thing is people got set schedules other people don’t run off our times if stuff happens and that shit pisses me off so bad
