Toddler not eating

Hey mommas, i have a almost 13 months old and he is not eating ANYTHING, he only wants to breastfeed. He used to at least eat greek yogurt in the morning, and i would add oats and chia seeds, but he is not even wanting to eat that anymore. He used to also really like fruits, like watermelon, banana, mango and kiwi… well not anymore… i dont know what to do , im getting really stressed, he barely gains any weight 🫠🫠🫠

My little boy was the same except with bottles, he just woke up one day at 16m and decided he didn’t want formula anymore and just started eating. i didn’t really do anything to encourage it but i do think that taking the pressure off of him helped, just keep offering meals even if it’s only 1 a day and see what happens you could also speak to your doctor and see what they say but from experience they’re pretty useless x

Was he eating before 13 months? What approach to food do you have in terms of when do you offer it, does he self feed?

My little guy ate more when I fed him. He still does at 3.5 years! I do let him do the first bit then I help. I tell stories and connect while i feed him and it helped a lot initially as he just preferred milk and snacks

Just need to vent

I can’t 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 he’d just rip it up because he won’t agree to it. He tried suggesting marriage counseling even though I’ve been asking for it for over a year and was told “only losers go to therapy.”

Our son recently got an autism diagnosis and he treats him differently now. Calling him “tismo” and saying comments about why couldn’t 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 I’m just lazy.

I really don’t 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 isn’t is can’t stand him. She told me the other day that she feels bad for me because I’m stuck married to him.

Idk what to do. I feel trapped being with him.

Do you love or hate ASMR?

I fucking hate ASMR videos why do all videos need to have things cracking crunching unwrapping tapping all kinds of shit. So many people seem to like it or just not care but I genuinely feel like I need to claw out of skin when I hear it. I’m usually a calm relaxed person so I don’t know why it sets me off SO easily

I’m so so sad and hoping for some encouragement

Today my boyfriend ( not my baby daddy) ended our relationship just short of two years. We went so slow , he met my son 6 months into dating . I felt like I waited to really bring him in and I have tried so hard to be certain before allowing my now 3 year old get to know him. They’ve been getting to know eachother more closely for the last 8 months and it seems so good.
Today we scheduled a convo to just talk about how he’s feeling about everything. And I’ve been asking him to communicate with me about his journey through this all. He doesn’t have kids. Today he said , he just at doesn’t know what he wants but he has been selfish because he wants me and loves me and I’m the most incredible women he has ever met but he can’t see it working because he just doesn’t know if he can have my son in his life the way ultimately I would want some day.
I’ve just asked for a friendship with my son. My son has a dad . But it’s over now I guess. I feel side blinded. He never spoke of feeling like he didn’t want this. He said it wasn’t fair to me and it especially wasn’t fair to my son. I appreciate the honesty and , it’s better now than later . We don’t live together or anything.
But guys I’m heart broken and I finally let someone in and I just feel like, what’s the point of trying again? It just hurts. It hurts me and now I have to navigate his absence for my son.
I just feel like society views us in this way I hate. Like taking on a women with a child is such a burden. I don’t ask for anything beyond love us both , he is a part of me .

Does anyone feel like this? Experienced this?
I feel so rejected and just… defeated. I don’t think I want to date anymore . I know every breakup feels that way but… mabey it’s just not in the cards for me.

This is the first relationship that felt healthy, loving and truly happy and I’m so sad to lose this person that brought me so much joy and has been with me through so much as a mother .

Another episode of - is he cheating:

General vibes over the years - seems to exit out of what he was looking at on his phone when I come in the room, has the opportunity with “work dinners” and things, found a hair tie in his car one time. I know that sounds bad, but no one who knows him would think he’s capable of it, and I’ve always chalked it up to my own anxiety and insecurities.

Yesterday I found a necklace.

Discreet box, ordered to the house, last night he unboxed it, put the nice cloth bag in his backpack, and left for work with that this morning. (Yes I know this bc I was snooping) A quick google shows it was a Very expensive necklace.

Took everything I had not to ask about it, but I’m waiting until this evening to see if it’s still in his backpack or not. He could be hiding it and giving it to me at some point but idk.

Thoughts?

Teething

Hey mama’s! For those that have teething babies, does it come with a runny nose? I just discovered she has one tooth at the top and two at the bottom coming in.
