I don’t understand my husband. We have agreed that we will wait until next year to have another baby. I am currently not using any contraceptions (by choice). So it is quite easy for me to fall pregnant and he knows this. He has been using the pull out method and condoms ever since I gave birth to our child who now ...

Hello, Anyone got any advice on the best baby savings account?

We don’t know what we’re having but we have started the conversation about circumcision and I wanted to get you guys’ thoughts? I have done a ton of research about it so I can truly see it going either way. I don’t know anyone that has not been circumcised or has personal experience with it so please share your thou...

My partner and I have a 4 month old son. We’ve agreed to another in the next year or two but not now. Okay yes I’m not on contraception, honestly I stopped taking it when I was 18. I use my cycle to indicate when it’s safer etc but ultimately we use the pull out method (pls don’t judge) I’ve told my partner a few...

Hi everyone, Im a first time mum just gave birth to beautiful girl 4 days ago. I’m not really familiar with AU system and was wondering how can I find mum groups around me? To make friends, share experiences and hang out with our babies, etc. any guidance is appreciated 😊

So my partner doesn’t talk to his mum, he hasn’t since before we met really. He tried to rekindle their relationship when I feel pregnant but it just didn’t stick and I didn’t feel that it was my place to talk for both of them you know? So I stop texting her and told him it was up to him and her if they wanted to ...

Ok so I'm currently not working as I have a 6 month old, so I just get my U. C payment but I feel like I struggle so much to get by. And just wondered how everyone else in the same situation is getting by? Are you guys left over with any money at the end of the month?

I’m biracial and I have always had a very hard time with finding friendships my entire life. It’s either people saying you’re too pretty, you don’t speak the language, you’re not enough of this half or that half. Have any other mixed women experienced this? I just want one loyal ass friend for once in my life. I jus...

I have two friends who I was super close with, but they’ve been horrible to me the last couple months and a big argument has caused us to not really be speaking/close as we use to be. I’ve come to realise they never liked me to begin with and were just using me for money/third person to be make them feel and look go...

Hi, I would like to vent and get some advice. I’ve been with my ex boyfriend for 2 years. Last year he out of the blue broke up with me, blamed me for a lot of things. Later discovered he had OCD and said that was the reason for his insane behavior. He went to therapy and tried to win me back. I wanted to give him a...

(Photo incl) My LO has been using these vitamins ever since she was 1. I add them to her night milk, she’s had no issues with it. It’s become quite expensive to keep buying these and am looking to change to a cheaper alternative. What do you give your LO’s??
