Fucking teething..

My 4m daughter is teething..I have gel, granuels and calpol. She’s constantly munching on her hand as she’s in pain and shoves her hand so far in she spits up. I’ve got her teether toys but she has a small mouth, sounds weird I know.. but she won’t take to them where they’re big. Any suggestions if anyone has had this issue?

Finding their hands and exploring their mouth is developmentally normal. It’s how they learn where their gag reflex is and mouth map to later on eat food x

I got teether pacifiers. They worked for my baby. Now his molars are coming in... Don't be afraid to give them Tylenol if they are uncomfortable with the pain. Just get the dosage amount from your pediatrician. 😊

Positive test and worried 😟

Can’t stop crying… just found out I’m expecting. I have a 7 yo son and a 15 month old daughter and up until a month or so ago I really wanted another, then I came to my senses and realised I’m already struggling, my plate is full I want to get back to being myself as I have really lost myself. My partner is how he is… help is limited interms or house work etc I do struggle to keep on top of everything already now I’m wondering how I’m going to cope this could break me. The reason I wanted another was for my youngest to have a sibling with a close age gap. Another worry is that I’m 36 I feel like I’m too old to do this again it’s going to take its toll and isn’t this classed as a geriatric pregnancy?. Any advice please 🙏🏽 xxxx

Am I unreasonable?

My sister-in-law (my brother-in-law’s wife) is a good person and has never been disrespectful towards me however not very friendly with me. She's been in the family for 10 years and I've been in the family for 4 years. She’s a GP but works part-time and takes care of most things related to the children and the household.
The thing is whenever she wants to arrange something like a day out with the kids or inviting us to their son’s birthday party she messages my husband rather than me. I find it a bit strange because I’m the mum too, so why are all these arrangements made through my husband?

I’m not English, but I communicate very well and have a full time job here so I def don’t think it’s a communication barrier!

I mentioned this to my husband and asked why she never messages me directly. I told him I find it strange but he said Im being sensitive and that she probably knows him better than she knows me

How do you know it’s over

I’ve been with my husband 4 years married 2. Over the last year our relationship has changed massively. We’ve gone from being like best friends, laughing, joking and cuddling. We always managed to live easily together and nothing felt like a chore. Now we argue constantly and when we don’t we just get on with our days and don’t really show any affection. Our arguments are bad, raised voices, saying things out of spite and making suggestions of one of us leaving. I’ll put my hands up to me causing some of these however my husband can be very provoking with his reactions and that then riles me up. It’s like we just don’t work together anymore. My 1 year old is definitely much more aware of these things now and I don’t want him being surrounded by tension or arguments. My husband is my first serious relationship so I’ve not experienced a break up before to know the signs it’s all going wrong or isn’t healthy anymore. We are so far from the couple we were I just don’t know how we’d ever get back to that point now.

Weaning onto solids

What time of day do you feed your little ones? And when do we go from veg once a day to other foods/ meals 2/3 times a day?
