Solids
Any tips on how to get your baby to eat solids? I think she’s a texture baby like all she eat is purées, she will try other things but it’s like she has no interest in it or she spits it out. Any suggestions? She’s almost 2. Anybody else’s kid this way?

Is this a recent development. Or have yall always done purées like when yall first started and this is what she prefers
Well when we first started that was an issue but that was a year and a half ago, I don’t know how far into this journey you are, if you’ve just started you’ll have to let them take it at their pace. Didn’t see to start with that they’re almost 2. Why wre we starting so late with food? If there were other issues that might have something to do with her not wanting solids
Um...why are you starting so late with the food?! Purees should be tried alongside breastmilk or formula at 6 months...at a year they can be weaned off off breast milk or formula and given more solid food like maybe chicken nuggets or Mac and cheese (my little guy loves this combo!)

Both parents go into an office and baby goes to nursery - how are you managing?
How does this situation work? ATM I am working from home and husband was made redundant, but I will need to return to the office after xmas. Baby goes to nursery 3 days a week, and husband is doing interviews/building portfolio etc. But even with us both being at home , it's so hard to manage a baby, getting sick/ having to pick him up from nursery. Or mornings are chaotic and I end up starting not when I want to. I just don't understand how you all manage to make it work if both parents need to go into an office? I know (and hope) that we will both be working soon, but am struggling to see how we will cope.

Drama MIL
I was telling my MIL about how HFM is going around the school and my son (7) had some bumps but they didn't look like HFM, so I dont think he did have it but it was a weird coincidence. MIL then called my sister in law, I watch my 4 month old nephew, and asked what her plans were with my nephew because my kids have HFM. This makes me so mad. If I felt like it was a concern, I would've said something. Like wth. She does this crap all the time and never minds her own.

Worried about recovering
Im worried about recovering from a second c section, I know people say its easier but my partner doesn’t help me or seem to understand that there is a-lot I won’t be able to do … I’m worried I’m going to end up back I’m the hospital for tearing my incision, or i am worried about pp depression from the lack of support I already have from him, my family is here to help but stressed me even more because I don’t want to cause any drama between anyone because my family will say something… and his mom is so overprotective of him and doesn’t want anyone saying anything to “her baby” he is literally 33 years old …. Im so overwhelmed and worried about everything and about having to suffer through more pain then i will be in … he literally complains about needing help doing everything! And we have a toddler and I do everything for her now when he has to do anything for her he whines about it and asks for help

Advice- no judgement
Long story but I’ve been with my partner for nearly 9 years since the age of 15 (24 now) we’ve got 2 beautiful babies aged 3 and 1 and just sold our home a couple of months back to purchase a new house that’s currently going through probate. We are currently moved back in with his parents whilst we was waiting for the sale to go through but I can’t help but be so unhappy in the relationship this past 2 months, we don’t argue as such but I find he is so miserable and hard to have a bit of fun with, I’m more outgoing and like to have fun whilst he is quiet, he doesn’t like it if I say I’m going out with friends even though I still have a friendship group and I just feel constantly miserable. I would never condone cheating but I can’t help but think that I’m missing out on being with someone who is more me and someone I can have fun with. But it’s so hard to know what to do as I do love him and I am so petrified of tearing our family apart but I just want to be happy too and I’m still young I don’t want to waste all my life being in a relationship in which I’m not 100% happy. The guilt is taking over my life 😭
