If you like to pack light (like meš„“) and depends on the length of flight but
Clothes that are easy to take on and off (ie zip up sleep suits.)
Finger foods if weaning
Disposable changing pads x2.
If not breastfeeding then Premixed feed to cover feeds on flight (+ powder incase of delays). X
Thank you so much! Iām assuming they allow premixed feed through customs? X
Clothes for you! In case baby spits up (or worse) clothes for them. Toys. Min enjoyed the suction cup toys.
I survived a 15 hour flight so you got this! Feed on the way up and down to help with the ears :)
I would also pack a baby carrier (they do allow you to take the pram to boarding) but in case youāre having to hold baby for a long time itās useful so your arms donāt get tired. You just have to take them out for takoff and landing

Finance issues
Is it ok to ask for child maintenance from my husband even if we live together etcā¦
My husband earns more than me, he pays our biggest bill but I still pay tons of bills to, including childcare all food shopping and if we go anywhere or do anything. I keep asking for him to contribute that Iām constantly struggling to cover everything but he just makes up and excuse or lies about his money or bills. He doesnāt even pay the bills on time or just doesnāt pay, I constantly have to bail him out and never get it all back. heās lying again about money and it just seems like my money is the family money and his money is his to do what he wants. I brought it up with him again this week and he told me he wasnāt contributing anything towards summer break as I choose to take the children out so I should cover the cost. He constantly pays for nothing and everything falls on me, I can never just have my money I have to make sure it covers everything. I just want him to contribute towards our children but he doesnāt pay for clothes toys outings nothing Iāve had enough
Weāre trying to save for a house but everyone I ask him to save any money for this he tells me Iām controlling him

Does it get better?
My son is 2 months and itās just been really hard I feel like I have no break and when I ask for help I feel like Iām just inconveniencing everyone and Iām so beyond stressed from other things that my body hurts and feels weak and I always have headaches, no matter how much I rest I feel like I can barely hold my son just to burp him and yes I do have a husband but heās constantly working and is barely even home and he canāt take off but does it get better when they get older?

Lustful husband
Hi guys, Iāve got two kiddos a two year old and a 2 month old. My husband has always struggled with watching things he shouldnāt be. I find out (after asking and asking because I know heās lying) cry and forgive because I love this man with everything in my soul. He apologizes, says itāll never happen again and it does. Well when I had my two year old he fell into it again and so this time I begged him not to do it this time postpartum and itās happened twice. Something in me broke this time, Iām agitated, Iām withdrawn, I feel almost done? Is there any fixing it or is it time to wipe my hands. Iām a stay at home mom as well so Iād have to navigate that.

Autistic potty training
My son is 2 turning 3 in December and I know for the following year he will be entering pre-k so heāll need to be potty trainedšŖ. Heās already a size 8 in diapers so I know heāll have to be in undies soon. I do have trouble getting him to focus and follow directions so Iām not sure how to navigate him to be potty trained.

Regret having a child
I have recently become the only caretakers for my child I live in a country with no family or friends recently been divorced and the pressure of just being the only caregiver for my son has been driving me insane Iām not able to do anything or get anything done ex-husband refuses to help out with 8 month old baby I have to do everything by myself. I donāt have a job depend on him financially heās been really difficult refusing to help out. I feel like Iām slowly losing myself and drowning in the sorrow of motherhood with no financial stability living in a very small Shered apartment.

Just need to vent
I canāt stand my husband. I look at him and there is no spark left. His past has caught up with him causing us to be homeless and living paycheck to paycheck. I told him a month ago I wanted a divorce and he said if I filed heād just rip it up because he wonāt agree to it. He tried suggesting marriage counseling even though Iāve been asking for it for over a year and was told āonly losers go to therapy.ā
Our son recently got an autism diagnosis and he treats him differently now. Calling him ātismoā and saying comments about why couldnāt he just have a normal son. He has like stopped taking care of him and half asses it. The burnout is real. I signed our son up for daycare because I needed help and a break and was told Iām just lazy.
I really donāt know what to do. Getting married to this guy has cost me my career, screwed me financially, I no longer have my own car because he tried to fix my old car and it caught on fire one day while driving it.
My daughter who isnāt is canāt stand him. She told me the other day that she feels bad for me because Iām stuck married to him.
Idk what to do. I feel trapped being with him.
