What a strange thing to crash out aboutš I use pampers but only because my son has sensitive skin but if I could use cheap ones I wouldš¤£

Thatās insane he should be glad itāll go further

Heās being absolutely ridiculous!! First of all Aldi/ Lidl nappies are far better than pampers/ Huggies & cheaper. Which allows for you to get more with āHis child maintenanceā.

Is it a crash out or is he just being a man-child throwing a tantrum cuz he canāt control you? Cuz thatās what I think

Tell him youāre also using Aldi/Lidl wipes too instead of Water Wipes, let him crash out some more š¤£š¤£

thatās crazy of him i canāt lie

lol does he think you are keeping the change to spend on yourself. Living it up š
If you are a SAHM, do you send your 2-3 year old to preschool? Iām genuinely confused because people keep asking me why my not even 3 year old isnāt in preschool yet. While I was working she was in āearly preschoolā which was literally just daycare. I also keep seeing social media posts of 2 and 3 year olds going to āpreschool.ā I am a SAHM now, why would I willingly send my 2 year old to daycare and pay money for that, and lose the precious time we have together before she starts school. She has other opportunities to socialize and she is incredibly smart! Maybe societal expectations are changing but my siblings and I didnāt start preschool until 4 and it was only a half day (and free through our public school!) Isnāt it best for our babies to be home with us if possible?
Someone tell me Iām not crazy?! š

As a stay at home mom I understand that my job is mainly house chores and childcare when heās working but I asked him to help with giving our son a bath and he started complaining about how thatās my job and how Iām so lucky to be a stay at home mom and I need to stop complaining. I feel terribly guilty and bad when he brings that up. Of course Iām extremely lucky and blessed to be a stay at home mom but that doesnāt mean that some days or weeks are just hard. I feel weak for asking for help and I donāt think I should feel like that. These are his kids too and I shouldnāt have to ask him to just be a parent. Idk am I in the wrong?
I even told him he doesnāt need to do anything at home like laundry, cooking, cleaning because I understand thatās my duty at home. Maybe Iām the one whoās wrong idk.
Then when I try to talk to him about me struggling heāll tell me just wait until you start working then youāll regret ever complaining. But if I work Iāll still be coming home after a long work day to still cook, clean, and take care of the kids.

Iāve come to the decision that I really am not a patient person š Iām feeling a bit stuck at the moment. My boy is 6 months old, has had really bad reflux from the beginning, is currently not interested in food, is breastfed and wonāt take a bottle, cosleeps because the crib is a big no no. The list could go on! He is very hard work and I know babies arenāt easy but this is another level and feel like I definitely have it harder than others especially when you see people say their baby sleeps great and all the other things
