Thats great, well done! āØ Did you have to be cleared by midwife to start collecting? I have an appointment at 36 weeks was wondering if itās the right time to ask or if I even need to ask (was planning to start at 37 weeks) š
Well done I think I only got 1 droplet in my first attempt :D super producer!
That's great well done. I recently started too but max I've got so far is 0.5
Wow š® and so you should be proud! š I tried to collect the few drops Iāve had and completely missed the syringe š¤£could have cried! Xx

Am i wrong for feeling annoyed?
My in laws are very involved in my child's life, its a lovely problem to have i guess but sometimes I feel like my MIL oversteps and takes firsts away from me. This weekend we've gone for our first family holiday with my 9 month old and they've come with us, we mentioned we wanted to buy a baby walker and she's gone off and bought one without asking or telling us first.
Her first time at the beach and she was there and strolled off with her before I got chance to. Our first time with her on the swings and she's just...there.
Same as giving her ice cream/foods/sweets whatever, she just gives it to her without asking. Idk if I'm overreacting or I feel like a bit pushed out. She's my daughter and I just wanted to do some firsts with her myself. Not sure if I'm being mean and should just get over it. How would you approach it?

Sick cat, feel like a bad person
Our cat, 14 years, is sick, he went to the vet 3 times last week and turns out he has pancreatitis. He doesnāt eat or drink.
The vet visits easily cost 1000 pounds. And we canāt really keep paying massive vet bills.
We have a 20 month old, and Iām 8 weeks pregnant. I just donāt have the mental capacity to deal with this. I want the the cat to live several more years, and our 20 month old loves him.
But with him just not eating and with vet bills I just feel like we should put him down.
We had 2 cats and put the previous down a month before our daughter was born, at that point he probably wouldnāt have lasted out the month anyway, and I felt we should have put him down earlier.
But our remaining cat isnāt as bad as our old one I just donāt want to deal with it, and I feel bad!
Am I horrible?

Money
Iām getting really close to saying f this relationship over money. Iām with my kids dad. We have two. He is extremely spoiled. I peeped that a long time ago. He does not like to pay bills. I make less than him but I still end up paying the majority of the bills. Like say rent for the month of August was $1100 (itās going to be $1700 next month but weāre on a move in special that ended this month). The phone bill was due $220. I had to pay my car note car insurance and light bill. All of those were about $200 as well. This man sent me $500 which Iām only factoring into the household bills not my own bills for my car. On top of paying bills I always buy groceries. He never does. He might buy like snacks for the kids after school but no food to make meals. I feel like Iām being crushed financially and heās getting to put money up!

Anyone else struggling with their partners?
Iām booked in for an induction on Wednesday, my partner is superrr happy & excited whereas Iām more quiet because Iām nervous about what Iām going to have to go through. I explained to him that Iām actually not that scared about the pain (because either path we take is painful) Iām actually just more worried about spending 5+ days in the hospital being bored to death & being told thereās no progress. And he responded with āyeah but itās fine, I can leave and get you stuff, I can get you clean clothes & foodā (this wasnāt related to my worries at all) I replied back with ābut I just wish I was the one who could go home & do some laundry, sleep in our own bed & see our dogāš„ŗhe then responded with āno matter what I do for you, itās not enoughā. I feel like heās just missed the entire point? I never said what heās doing isnāt enough. I said I just wish I could be the one with the freedom & feel the excitement. Rather than having to stare at a hospital curtain for 120+ hours to be told youāre still not dilatingš¤£ I feel like heās not being very understanding which is upsetting me more
