My birth didn’t go to plan and ended in an emergency c section, my partner found the ordeal very traumatic and confided in me that he felt some resentment and was struggling to bond with our baby.

He still missed birthday and anniversary soon af...

How much longer can I expect my son to be this demanding, SELFISH, impatient, antagonistic, refractory, exacerbating, unbearable Ahole?! Any time I try correcting the behavior, I feel like I'm talking to a brick wall! Am I doing something wrong, or is this a phase he will eventually grow out of 🤞🤞 please please…

Please recommend what toys you are using for your little ones? My 11 weeks old seems to be getting bored during his wake windows and i want to get him some stuff. Thinking about a play mat with toys maybe?

Sometimes I feel annoyed or agitated with my son and it makes me feel like he's a burden. I know this sounds bad, but he's going through terrible twos and as a stay at home mom I feel burnt out. I can't do much, not even leave his play area to get water without him having a meltdown over a toy. Has anyone felt this ...

I’ve got 2 kids 3.5yrs and 7 months old, I love my bd but also resent him aswell, as he’s selfish and just does as he wants and leaves me with the kids all the time. I’ve never had a night off, as I always do bedtime yet he goes out all the time. I’ve spoken to him about it a few times in the last month and even to...

Hi, can anyone advise on tips for potty training? My son is coming up to 2 and a half next month, he’s recognising when he needs a wee etc but would rather wear a nappy than use his potty, he will sit on it, same with a toilet seat but so far he’s only used his potty once. Any tips are appreciated

Hey, LB is a week off 6 months, watches us eating constantly, able to sit in his chair, brings toys to mouth all the time. We attempted to start weaning as he seemed to show all the signs he was ready. We did a mixed approach of puree and some baby led (steamed broccoli head and the rest blended to a puree for exa...

I’m having a really hard time telling husband’s family that they are being too overbearing . They are trying to choose nursery furniture, prams, clothes etc. I feel like I’m suffocating from it all. They want to be involved in every decision. They are telling me that when the baby is born they plan to spend everyday...

My son was born on 12/27, so he just turned 3 months. He’s eating 5 oz and he’s still wanting to eat every 2.5-3 hours. He’s such a chunk these days he’s gotta be at least 16lbs. How much and how often ar your 3 month olds eating?!

The constant trashing of the house, not sharing, pushing, shoving, meltdowns when trying to leave the house, every single mealtime is a battle and a failure… is this normal?

Baby girl turned four months on the first. Her appointment was yesterday and the doctor said that it was OK to start feeding her liquid solids. Also, it was OK to give her 2 to 4 ounces of water a day with solids. I started her on oatmeal and breastmilk today. She enjoyed it although she still prefers to nurse, whic...

Is this a thing postpartum because I am really struggling. I have zero patience with my eldest and his tantrums are very very very extreme at the minute. I am borderline breakdown and have to leave the house a lot to take deep breaths etc. I feel myself at breaking point with him, and I know he is a toddler and t...

For those of you who have little ones that have started weaning off milk and eating more solids. Do you offer a bottle or breakfast first in the mornings?
