How are you passing time?

It’s 8th month and you can’t go outside and indoors feels so boring and stuck.
Can’t do most of the things neither very active.
October seems soo far.

Like what hobbies and things you are doing to remain sane as it’s very start to get depressing and alone journey and overthinking start to affect mental health

Today is the first day of month 8 for me. I'm still working full time for 2 more weeks then go down to part-time work until the end of Sept. This is keeping me busy enough to appreciate when I do have free time.
Are you working right now?
What do you mean you can't go outside? I like to spend time in my garden and to go on gentle walks, though I also can't be as active as I was pre-pregnancy.
I host a podcast so I edit episodes in my spare time, and I've been nesting and setting up the nursery, though it's pretty much ready for baby now.
In the next couple weeks we are going to buy an extra freezer so I'll be prepping freezer meals for postpartum in my free time as well.

I finally met 2moms off peanut
I’m due in October I actually went to the pool which felt nice took a little pressure off my body .. also I went to an indoor place for kids and adults… , I small art project at home when I can .. 3rd trimester do make you tired.. I would stay in for 2 days then. Go out for one day every 2days go out so I don’t do the depression also therapy in person sessions forces you to get out the house and express how you feel so depression don’t kick in

I plan to work until 3 days before my delivery date. Since I go to bed super early these days my free time is limited. I've been doing audiobooks with my husband, tidying the house, watering plants, time with pets especially my dog, going to the pool twice a week and seeing friends on weekends. I feel super busy and an excited/impatient for baby to get here

Surviving in this economy

How r we all coping in this economy, when I first had my little girl we worked out that me working 3 days a week and husband full time would be enough for us to cover everything and have a little left over for any unexpected bills and to actually have the odd day out as a family.
Fast forward a year and a half and our bills have consistently gone up to a point we have nothing left so any unexpected bills have to go on the credit card 😭
I can’t work any extra days as we have no family to rely on and if I put her in nursery full time I wouldn’t be earning any extra with the fees 😭
she goes 2 full days which we get funded hours, This economy is killing us we both earn reasonable money and have cancelled every single thing that’s not a necessity 😭😭 we have a mortgage so unfortunately not entitled to any benefit help either 😭😭😭😭

Sex - Drama and Relationship

My partner if he does not have sex for like 3 days becomes really nasty. We havnt had sex in 2 weeks because of the school holidays and camping trip. He has become so vile. Hes critical, threatening to kick me out because i wont resolve (his word fr sex), telling me i am a joke and he is going to find sex elsewhere and all sorts of shit. He is aggressive and mean and turns into hulk.

I have no emotional connection with him and when i told him that he turned it around stating what about his needs for sex. He then went on to say he aint doing shit for me.

I am also 20 weeks pregnant with our second and startinf to feel very uncomfortable in my own body.

Im scared to just walk out because im pregnant but i cant put up with the nasty things he says just because he isnt getting sex.

At the end of the camping trip he even disowned his eldest daugther and she landed up leaving at 8pm at night. (She is 13).

I just feel so stuck and lost.

Condoms

Does anyone wear condoms with their husband? I personally don’t and just curious if there are married couples out there who do.

Maintenance CSA

I’m supposed to receive £174 a month in child maintenance but he only pays £100 max each month. Would you change to collect and pay and chase arrears or leave it? He says his child doesn’t need £174 a month and that id basically spend it on myself 🙄
