How do you tell someone they’re doing unsafe things with their baby without sounding like a dick? Me and my friend had our first babies very close together. Now I may be anal about it but I didn’t do blanket swaddles, I have nothing in the bassinet besides her, she spends 10 minutes tops in her swing and ONLY when s...
Ever since I’ve had my baby I feel like I cannot control my emotions, I get angry so quickly and so easily and I don’t know how to control it. I thought these feelings are just in the beginning of everything of course with the hormones during/after pregnancy being all over the place and all that. But my baby recentl...
My baby fell off the bed again. I feel absolutely devastated. When I leave my baby on the bed she’s completely occupied playing with toys. Then I literally turn around for 5 seconds and she falls off. I’m so stupid and should know better since this happened a few months earlier. This time she fell down in the sittin...
Hi! I’m hoping to get some perspectives on a rather controversial subject. We recently found out where having a boy in the fall and are SO excited! The one thing we can’t seem to figure out is if we are going to circumcise or not. We’re not on different boats we just can’t figure out which way to go about it. I don’...

I had a c section and I was told to wait 6 weeks but it’s been a whole month today since I had my baby. I have 2 more weeks left and I can’t wait 😭 only because I haven’t had sex since I was 20 weeks pregnant. Me and my husband had sex once or more everyday and I want it to go back to that because man he’s such a…
Since my baby was born I’ve had moments where I just don’t feel connected or like I’m bonding well with him and I’m not sure what to do. There are times where I love him more than anything but times where I don’t really feel anything towards him. I’m trying to just push through in the hopes it will improve as I’m on...
I do everything I can for this child and all I get is attitude and disrespect, I can't remember the last time I had a peaceful morning or night. She's an angel to everyone else I always get good report for but then I get treated like 💩 and I hate it. The people that are not here and don't deal with this get nothing…
Hey mums, I’m 23 and FTM to my beautiful baby girl who is now 6 months. From day 1 I have had issues connecting or bonding with the people.

I think I may be on the verge of a nervous breakdown, every night since baby turned one has been hell, constant wake ups, fighting bed time, screaming until he falls asleep, yes I know it might be a development keep, or teething but I literally don’t know how to get through it and feel like I have no one to talk to,...
So I’m 38 weeks tomorrow and just had fun time with my husband and didn’t even think it could send me into labor. 🥲 Did I mess up or should I be okay for the last two weeks? 🤣
