My mum gives my son gummy sweets!
I've just come home from work only to find out my mum has been giving my 13 month old son Maynards wine gumsš«Ŗ
My son ran up to me so I picked him up and he started crying and pointing so I followed where he was pointing which was my mum's bag, he reached in and grabbed the packet and then started screaming because I told him no. She said I've only been giving him smaller pieces! So!?? Now my son's having a meltdown....
Told her off. She said she won't do it again. Do I trust her? Noš

I totally understand this. My mother in law is not responsible at all and yet still expects me to let her have our son. My FIL has dementia and is difficult to get in and out of the car so she doesn't bother to use the seatbelt. He also is on a modified diet including thickened fluids which she never adheres to. If she doesn't look after him properly how can I trust her to look after our baby?! Yet she's so supportive and excited. It will break her heart to tell her no but what choice do I have.
Wine gums too! Your poor child, of all the good gummy sweets in the world š
But jokes aside, that's so unbelievably annoying. I'd go nuts at my mum!

This is f**ked upš¤¦š»āāļø
My manās constant comments about my postpartum body got my head f**ked up. At 24 yo I just had my second son in June 16 and am already down from 150 to 118 pounds and Iām proud of thatā¦but my man (whoās very into fitness) is constantly telling me to go to the gym or sending me workout videos grabbing my tummy fat, whenever the babyās relaxing he tells me to do squats or sit ups and even sending me A.I pictures of my body edited to what āit could beā he doesnāt see how much it messes with me even tho I say thatās not nice to say. Iāve been going to the gym 3x a week the last 2 weeks and a 2 mile walk daily with the kids sense 6 weeks pp like Iām trying but sometimes Iām just so tiredā¦ Iāve always been a very petite person and I know this might sound stupid but I feel rly anxious to just try and get back to how I was. Idk what to say to him because at the end of the day we want the same thing I just want to look in the mirror and pretty againš¤¦š»āāļø

Debt and stress
Hello my partner has managed to get us into a lot of debt to the point we don't have the money to pay for bills and food etc. Obviously with baby arriving very soon as you can imagine we are very stressed to be in this horrible situation. I am in tears everyday, my eldest birthday is soon and I havent got him anything yet as cant afford it. I am super fed up and having horrible thoughts which I shouldn't be as i should be so excited this baby is coming but all I can think about it money troubles šŖ my partner has said about writing off the debt which will mean it will leave him with bad credit and we are renting as cant afford a mortgage but going forward I feel like its not the best decision? Can anyone advise please

Holiday season for co parenting
So I came with an idea to split the day with my sons father because it will be our sons first holiday season. We got a letter in the mail to go by even and odd but I think for his first year we should split the day in half so he both get to experience his first with each family. I originally told him that I wanted Odd number years but then I started thinking that we could just split the day instead, and then go by even and odd. Do you think itās a good idea? And do yāall think my childās father will agree? He just start coming around and truthfully if it was up to me I wouldnāt let him get any holiday at all but a part of me is trying to be fair and still cordial with him.

Pregnant teachers?? Help!!!
Am I being a bitch or is being asked āhow areee youuuā in that patronising tone 17 times a day by staff members SO annoying. A child said to me this morning āwoah your tummy is getting really bigā. Iāve had staff members tell me āmy pregnant Mrs isnāt that bigā. The kids have an excuse but adults??!! WHY do people make ābigā comments. Itās crazy because if I turn around and say āand so are youā, Iām suddenly the bad guy. How are we all coping doing this job whilst being pregnant. Iām 6mo now. Iām clinging on by a thread šššš.
