For me 0-1

0-1 it’s all new. 1-2 is new but it’s just an adjustment. Not a whole life changing thing

1-2 for me. I found the changes of 0-1 expected but 1-2 there was a lot of frustration trying to speak/express themselves and overall massive miscommunication time. Also we started nursery at 1 / i got back to work so that was challenging and 1-2 was also the age of most illnesses (related to nursery) and trying to manage it alongside working full time

0-1 because absolutely everything was so new, I'd never even changed a diaper before

1-2 is harder I think xx

Each age range brings its own challenges

0-1 without a doubt.
1-2 was a logistical change, a new timetable, more supplies but you know how to do it.
0-1 was a whole system change. Becoming a mum changed everything and that adjustment took a lot of time mentally, even the lack of freedom to just go to the cinema or for dinner. To go from no responsibility to I can’t get up cause I’m nap trapped and unwashed was huge.
hi everyone! probably a long shot but me and my partner are expecting our first child in feb at only 19 and 18 years old. We’ve tried looking online for an app like this for my partner to make some dad friends new or existing around his age but haven’t had any luck. is there anyone who has a partner who would like to reach out and connect and hopefully make friends x

my husband and i are fighting intensely. not only am i 8 weeks postpartum, im VERY sleep deprived and postpartum depressed and we have a lot going on like too much debt, failed businesses, moving countries, about to be living with my MIL, me having no car available or any way to work or leave, never able to start my career or anything. we shouldn’t have moved abroad and we shouldn’t have had a baby. i have no family either. i’ve never imagined this would be my life and i never imagined i would be thinking this. what would you do in my situation?

Hi all! - sorry in advance this is a complete ramble and probably is ridiculous
Second time mum here with a slightly silly story but wanted some encouraging advice as I am an over thinker
I have obviously just found out I’m pregnant me and my boyfriend have been together for 3 years we met in work and chose to keep our relationship private due to my position in work he left the company earlier this year
I started dropping hints a few months ago that me and said person where going on dates etc to try and get it out there as I didn’t want anybody to see us out having dinner or drinks or whatever
And now I have to tell them I’m pregnant obviously not straight away but at some point and I’m so worried what the responce will be! As they think we have only been seeing each other a few weeks. Also my oldest daughter (from previous relationship) has recently started school and I had to change my hours to accommodate drop off and pick up due to being the only parent who can do this I’m worried my boss will be funny with me now as I advised I was on my own but now I’m pregnant and have a new partner (obviously my current partner works too and can’t pick her up or drop her off) am I worrying over nothing?

Do you take full control of the finances and making the budget? Do you and your partner sit down together and discuss the budget/finances? Or does your partner have full control and you have no access?

Hi mums
Need advice
I have been with my partner now for 6years but on and off. My lil one is 5 years and keeps reminding of how she wishes to have a sibiling . The issue is my partner and I hvnt been talking bout us or future plans for a year now let alone have sex. I want to completely leave this relationship and go but deep inside I feel guilty of not being able to give my child someone in her life. Idk what the future holds for me in terms of relationships.
My question here is should I get pregnant and leave or leave with my one child and be okay with it? Financially I’m still trying save more now but in terms of support idk have anyone here
