So my husband told me he cheated on me he got a bj off someone he said he instantly regretted it and I can tell he was devastated when telling me.

So there’s this guy at my church. I know he probably means well and whatnot but why do I have to keep reminding him to stop touching my 6yo son’s hair? And each time I tell him to please not touch my son’s hair, he looks at me as if he’s completely offended? Mind you this has happened three times in 6 months. My son...

My husband and I just had a little girl in November. Our parents keep wanting to look after the baby, suggesting every time we mention being tired to give the baby to them. We’re not comfortable with leaving our baby. It’s not that we don’t trust them, because we do. But we don’t want anyone but us looking after her...

I’m 6 weeks away from giving birth to my baby (hoping it’ll be on time). I’m the only one preparing for the baby & my husband isn’t contributing anything.

Anyone else’s baby unable to be left alone? He’s my second baby so I’m struggling a bit to have time with my toddler one to one.

My husband and I are currently in a long distance relationship right now, and being in postpartum makes it really hard for me to connect with him, him being the type of guy who always needs to be told what to do. I just want to be asked how I was doing not just always asking about our kids. I can't talk to him about...

So am I in the wrong here, our son 7 weeks old was crying and I asked if my partner could feed him whilst I got an extra couple of mins sleep. Partner fed him and I put him back in his Moses basket, partner then goes you owe me one. Erm no I don’t he’s your son. Sorry this has proper wound me up
