I really don’t know what to do with any of my baby daddy’s anymore. I’m tired of this shit. I’m tired of going back-and-forth with them tired of being the one that’s always in the wrong when they are the one that do nothing for their kids like it hurts.💔💔💔💔💔 going back-and-forth with my oldest daughter Dad for the…

Advice please! My partner asked if he could go to his cousins bday party around the time I was due to give birth, I said no as it was an hour away and wanted him to be there in case I went into labour. My mum was living with us at the time but I still wanted him present for extra support so he said he wouldn’t go. ...

Husband's wants me to be nice or talk to him with respect the same level he does it back to me. However over time I have lost some of that love because of difficult times he put me through. I.e pressure me into pregnacy, belittle me over jobs I wanted to apply, said I will look buff like a man when I joined the gym....

My husband lies about everything, both small and big things. We even went to a marriage counselor, and she also said that he is not mature enough and is a liar. I don’t know what to do. Should I continue living like this, or should I leave him? The constant lies are becoming unbearable.

I’m after a bit of advice. I’m feeling extremely anxious this morning about a silly argument with my partner that escalated (on my part) last night. We have a 6 month old baby, my partner works full time and gives us a very good and comfortable life. I absolutely adore the bones of him, admire him, and try my hard...

Honestly this is more of just a rant.. but I’ve just had enough. My partner works nightshift 4/5days a week. His days off he will play his PS5 which is fine but when it’s all night and I’m talking he’s only went to bed now.. it frustrates me. And then obviously when little one wakes up I’m gonna have to grab him as ...

Okay mamas let me know if I’m overreacting & being dramatic .. I’m a first time mom & we celebrated Mother’s Day with my fiancée’s parents, got dinner & hungout pretty much all day (meanwhile I didn’t even get to see my own mom on Mother’s Day) While at dinner his mom goes “don’t forget you guys have to do something...

I hate even writing this, but I really don’t want to leave my 5 month old alone with my husband. I’m a SAHM and love being with my little one. I rarely take time to be by myself, but when I try or do my husband gets frustrated and angry around baby. He wants me to be able to have this time, but the baby gets fussy w...

House has gone to pot I can’t physically do it!!! So I asked my partner to tidy up and c...

My little boy genuinely hates me. He is at nursery mon-weds so we are together thirs-sun and I swear 90% of the time he is awake he whines or cries. So this morning I had half an hour of whining and then left him with my partner whilst I went upstairs to do some cleaning and not once when he was with my partner did ...

Do you still have rules? I still feel strongly about the kissing baby and smoking near him rules that we've had since day 1. I've always said only me and his dad can kiss his face because I just don't feel comfortable with anyone else doing that. I've had to remind my partners parents everytime they've flew over to ...

Anyone else struggling atm SD has come with nits multiple times now which I've personally treated everytime once again has come with them so I told her dad he could sort it out this time. Once he done it he asked if I wanted to check and all I said was your capable in which I then got told to f off. Don't think he l...

Last night me and my boyfriend discussed him going out with his friends, and hanging out for a little bit, he brought it up to me before them and I was on the fence honestly not because I’m against him going out, it’s just we only moved here a few months and ago and I worry But I ended up saying it’s okay because h...

Son is 15 months old, today is partners birthday. He is away out with friends to an awards ceremony for their sports team, am I being unreasonable for being hurt by this? I wouldve liked to have spent his birthday with him and our son…

FTM here…let me just preface by saying I do my research (maybe I have PPA) and lean towards minimalist/montessori toys. I think a lot of toys are just junk and CAN be life savers if used in moderation and developmentally appropriate. My MIL wants to buy all kinds of stuff (and does without asking) and recently got h...

Hey all. My husband is struggling really badly with becoming a parent. I am the primary breadwinner in our household and I already feel like I’m doing everything. My mom is here to help out and she often times has the baby when we are working. However, it seems like he prefers for her and I to be the default paren...

Hi all I'm so nervous about possibly being a single mum. I have a soon to be 8 month old and also 5 months pregnant. My partner is a semi part time dad literally and it's so frustrating. He doesn't bother with her and he lives with us and doesn't work. He's barely done anything for her since she was born. He's maybe...

This week has been so hard for me. My husband left for a 10 day fencing job all the way in Pecos on Monday (which is a 8 hour drive). I miss him so much it’s hard to sleep. I love my girls who are 3 and soon to be 2 but I’m lonely. I don’t really drive due to anxiety which I wish to resolve someday so I’m just stuck...

I’m not sure how to word any of the things I’m feeling so I’ll try my best😅 My BD works 7:30am-5:30pm Mon-Fri and can sometimes stay late. He always says that he doesn’t get to spend much time with me or our girl due to work hours clashing with her routine (bedtime is 8pm) when he comes in he doesn’t really bother…
