Starting to be ok with it

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. 😩 I genuinely feel like that’s a form of emotional abuse, especially when it’s intentional. Why can’t we be adults and communicate instead of ignoring each other for days?

Just need to Vent

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 wasn’t anything heated. I asked him who was doing the bath for the toddler. He says that we’re doing our regular schedule… I said ā€œso i’m doing bath and bedtime? He replied ā€œno, you do bath, I do bedtimeā€. So I could’ve been a bit easier on this part, but I got a little upset and told him ā€œSo 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 doesn’t have to), and so I’m always doing bath and bedtime… So now that he’s home, i’m still doing basically 90% of the care for home and the baby… So I asked what’s going to happen when baby gets here? I’m doing everything too?… He started silently crying… I’m not trying to be a butthole but i’m genuinely tired. The house is disgusting, my son has had TOO MUCH screen time due to the fact i’ve literally been so exhausted and can barely keep my eyes open. I don’t eat, I rarely sleep, and i’m 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 i’m so tired…

Potty training!!

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?

How do you guys feel about travelling with your autistic kiddos?

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 husband’s mouth were they just don’t get it. We can’t travel with an autistic child, and there is no point in even trying to do so. I’m honestly at a loss… I do not agree with never trying or just not doing things at all because of his diagnosis.

Meal ideas for toddlers

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

Anyone else?

My little boy is nearly 21 months old and I’m 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?
