My partner and I bought a house a few years ago, with help from my parents for the deposit. I currently earn around £20k a year in my teaching job, whilst he is on around £26k a year. Because we own our house, we aren't entitled to any government help other than my SMP (due Aug) and child benefit. I'll then be earni...
I don't have a clue how to react on this. Or if I'm overreacting. Hubby has to be by 6 and out the door by 7. This morning, he's complaining of stomach pain and just wallowing in the bed. I walked out and came back to him being highly pissed off because I didn't give him a b.j this morning. Turns into an argument...
In my relationship, my partner and I both agree that porn is absolutely fine, masturbating is absolutely fine, and being friends with people you've had sex with (not a relationship) before is fine. We also agreed that OnlyFans or similar subscription porn sites, especially where you can interact with the individuals...
My partner and I split up when baby was five weeks old and now he’s 12 weeks. Dad is not in the picture much and this baby is very clingy to me and super attached as you can imagine.

She’s having h...

Hey! Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, I have bought my 6 month old the Heinz jars chocolate pudding, but they are to big for her to eat it all, does anyone have any tips for warming just some of it up and saving the rest of the jar?
Is anyone else planning to go on holiday prior to 32 weeks? I’m currently 26 weeks and planning one now seems rushed. My partner thinks it’s slightly selfish of me stressing over a holiday when we have an excess of things to pay for but I know I need it for my mental health before I think about pushing this baby out...
My husband threw a fit this morning because I didn’t have his lunch packed up (‘mind you I meal prep for him every week) I was dealing with the twins that are kind of cranky. He asks as he’s about to leave did you pack my lunch? I tell him no sorry and he says “wow really” and storms out the door
