Friends

Hey guys! I’m 25 mom of two, I’ve always struggled to make friends wondering if anyone else is like me? I can be literally the most crazy out of pocket ride or die type of friend who is always down for anything but can never make a genuine friendship due to my lack of communication. I’ve always struggled making conversation but it’s like once it’s started and continues back and fourth I’m amazing with it. I’m also the type of friend who loves all the drama, tea, happy moments, everything I love being the friend people come to vent to and I love having a friend that is always down for drama, tea, a vent session and being excited about all the things I’m excited about (excited for me type of thing) I also would love to describe myself as a friend who can see both sides of a story who can be like aye you was wrong for that but I see where your coming from type of thing I’ve always seen myself as understanding but not sugar coating. I’ve never really had much of any friends but I’ve always wanted and dreamed of having like one or two people that I can always come to about things. I’ve always dreamed of/ wanted the pajamas and sleepovers or dressed up just for coffee and a walk thru Walmart type of friend. Or the messy hair pajamas and a book in the company of a friend, or a friend that we can FaceTime all day never get bored of each other while we do whatever we are doing. I feel like it’s been harder to have friends since I’ve become a mom. I never realized how many people judge and leave you for how you parent (if it’s not the same way)

Marriage dissolving?!

So for the first time after ages went on my husbands phone whilst he was sleeping to find out he messaged a girl “hey baby” and she sent a pic and he said “sexy” and he messaged her “hey baby” again! This is when I was one month pregnant!!! I’ve been the best wife to my husband to find this. After looking at his phone again I find him talking to a prostitue, where she asks what is he looking for and he said sex and ask how much she charges! Whilst me and him was engaged. He claims it was for his friend who wanted clients as part of a business but I don’t believe him. I have a 3 month old and I just don’t know what to do because we were such a power couple and loved each other so much but I just find all this out and it’s torn my heart and shattered me. Advice please!!!

Child benefit over 60k

Can anyone explain what you do when your partner earns over 60k (I claim CB and earn under 60k) . I thought the cap changed to 80 so we've been claiming CB for 2 years without making any pay backs 😐

WFH jobs

Are there any flexible work-from-home jobs available for college students (online) with a six-month-old baby? Even a small amount of extra cash would be great.

KIT DAYS/return to work

Hi mamas, I just need a bit of advice! 🤍

My last maternity pay is this month, and my maternity leave ends at the end of February. I’m planning to use my annual leave afterwards, so I’ll probably be returning to work around April.

How did you get in touch with your manager to discuss your KIT days and flexible working request before going back?

I’ve not heard from my manager in a while, but I do have his number and want to reach out to arrange my KIT days, discuss flexible working, and ask about adding my annual leave onto the end of my maternity leave.

As my last pay is this month, I’m thinking of starting my KIT days in December. How does the pay work? Do you get paid in the same month you do the KIT days, or does it depend on the employer?

Also, if anyone has any advice on what to say when I message my manager, I’d really appreciate it. I think I’m probably overthinking it Thank you! ❤️

Birth control

I went to my postpartum appointment today and they brought up birth control, I’ve never been on any kind of birth control before so what are some things I should know before getting on. I’m breastfeeding and also pumping so I don’t want my supply to drop if possible.
