So my partner went to a party whilst I was in hospital recovering from birth

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.

Toast for baby

Why my child picks only a specific food from assorted plate

I gave my toddler a plate with buttered toast, fruit, and aubergine. She only picked the toast and ate almost all of it, without touching or tasting the other two. I just started BLW a few weeks ago. She's 19 months old. What can I do to encourage her to eat everything on her plate? I tried modeling by eating the fo...

Enough is enough

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 ...
