My husband has been ignoring me for 5 days. This isn't a new thing, but probably the longest its gone. Im usually stressed and trying to talk to make things better. But this time im just over it and honestly starting to enjoy the distance. Its making me think divorce is probably the best option- he may be even thinking the same. Im sad to think about things ending and really would hate for my matriage to end. but im also realizing how much I've been dealing with. How did yall cross the bridge and decide to finally leave?

For me, i couldn't eat, and lost way too much weight, and hair, i was so stressed out, i felt emotionally responsible for him, but started to realize i needed to be emotionally responsible for myself, and that's when i decided to end it once and for all, that was after 12 years of marriage.

I'm sorry you're going through this. Why has he been ignoring you?

The silent treatment would have had me halfway out the door already. š© I genuinely feel like thatās a form of emotional abuse, especially when itās intentional. Why canāt we be adults and communicate instead of ignoring each other for days?
So to start, I am a SAHM with a toddler and currently pregnant with my 2nd child. My husband and so just had a conversation and it ended in him feeling bad and crying⦠It wasnāt anything heated. I asked him who was doing the bath for the toddler. He says that weāre doing our regular schedule⦠I said āso iām doing bath and bedtime? He replied āno, you do bath, I do bedtimeā. So I couldāve been a bit easier on this part, but I got a little upset and told him āSo I do the hard part and you do the easy part? Got it.ā then went and told him that he literally works 24/7 (he loves the crap out of his job bc he doesnāt have to), and so Iām always doing bath and bedtime⦠So now that heās home, iām still doing basically 90% of the care for home and the baby⦠So I asked whatās going to happen when baby gets here? Iām doing everything too?⦠He started silently crying⦠Iām not trying to be a butthole but iām genuinely tired. The house is disgusting, my son has had TOO MUCH screen time due to the fact iāve literally been so exhausted and can barely keep my eyes open. I donāt eat, I rarely sleep, and iām just tired⦠When he gets home from work, I try to keep our son away from him so he can rest. Sometimes he helps out after he gets up, sometimes he just gets on his phone and chills downstairs with us⦠Either way iām so tiredā¦

My son is 3, he knows when he has done a wee or poo in his pull-up & will tell me instantly to change him, he is absolutely terrified of the potty & toilet. Will I be a bad mum if I just put him straight into pants?

My family wants us to come down for Christmas and are even offering to pay for it! They even got a bed to help keep my son from eloping at night! I would love to go and take my autistic son and 3 year old daughter⦠but unfortunately the first words out of my husbandās mouth were they just donāt get it. We canāt travel with an autistic child, and there is no point in even trying to do so. Iām honestly at a loss⦠I do not agree with never trying or just not doing things at all because of his diagnosis.

Iām hoping yāall can share, what do you feed your toddlers? Iām at my wits end with my 3 year old. Sheās not a fan of spicy food and has been indifferent to pizza and pastas recently. Iām also looking for ways to get vegetables into her. Also whatās a reasonable portion size per meal? I canāt tell if Iām expecting her to eat more than she feasibly should.

My little boy is nearly 21 months old and Iām struggling to get him to eat anything with potato in. He will eat his meats, loves his spaghetti bolognese but anything potato in he will refuse. Anyone else?
