Hi everyone, we decided to go no contact with my in laws because of many crazy behaviors. We still attended MIL’s dad’s funeral and received this email after. I’m very worried because they are absolutely unhinged. The way they are saying “our grandchildren are suffering” makes me think they are planning something. L...

I feel like a failure. I was so afraid of BLW and started introducing solids later to my baby. Now she doesn’t like specific textures and her daycare says she doesn’t like to chew. Although they don’t mean it to hurt my feelings, I feel like they are judging me. I am continuing to introduce different solids to my ba...

My SD is very sick and you can hear the way she sounds on the phone. Her mom doesn't have a problem keeping her until she's better because she works from home but my husband wants her to come over.

My sister bought a cute jumper for my daughter and was so excited for her to have it for the coming months. I decided to try it on and then ended up leaving it on her for the day. When I got home, I went to clean the house while my husband watched her. When I was finished cleaning, I came back and my daughter had sm...

So I am genuinely doubting my.reality and if im being gaslit and need opinions. I feel I am right till I speak to him and he convinces me I have some blame. My husband has massive argumentative reaction sometimes over little things I've said and then tries to convince me that I am to blame and I need to apologise...

My husband and I have been together for 7 years now. After about a year of dating, we’re were having a tough time and he cheated on me with a coworker. Sex, I love you, all of that.

Hey! Wondering what kind of routine everyone has? What sort of time do your 3 year olds wake up/sleep? What time do you offer meals snacks?

We’ve always allowed our little one to have screentime. We both grew up with screens in our house and both turned out pretty fine! However, my daughter was in hospital last week and relied heavily on it- she was very poorly. Now we are home, struggling to cut back on the tv. She asks for it a lot and unless she’s g...

So my husband and I told his family 2 weeks ago that we were pregnant with our second baby. Everyone is super excited as one would be with adding a new family member.

What is everyone’s healthy go to snack? I know you are not supposed to snack late at night, but I’m in school and the only time I can do homework is between 9pm and midnight. And of course I’m tired so I find myself snacking to stay awake and the fact that at that time I ate dinner 4+ hours ago.

How are we keeping our babies entertained with absolutely no screen time. I don’t agree with screen time for babies.

Usuall...

His friend has now messaged me to say he has booked my O...
