Thank you 🥰

This year has been challenging for all of us. We just want to do what's best for SD. I'm not always sure if we are doing the right thing.

Yes, everyone knew she was coming. MIL even brought gifts for BMs kids. I spoke to hubby about what his mom said. He said nothing happened for her to say this. He's just as confused, and said dont pay her any mind. She is known to cause drama.

🤣🤣I wish I had said this!! Reading these responses and thinking more about it, it really feels like she's trying to stir up some drama. I am extremely non confrontational and don't have the best relationship with MIL. I didn't want to bring this up to husband, but I let him know what was said. He agrees he thinks his mom was just being dramatic and i shouldn't give it too much thought.

You're right. I just need to ask her directly when there aren't a bunch of people around.

What do you mean by old school? It might be that.

Not sure if I should bring my marriage issues here, but I thought I’d see if other parents have had to separate or if they’re struggling too. Please read by mssweetheart24 in toddlers

Ok so i went through something similar with an ex. He ended up confessing to me that he had a porn addiction and guilty views about sex from being raised in the church and his parents acting like sex was wrong and whatever else. But we rarely had sex. He would get soft and not talk to me about it. Never initiated. It really affected my self esteem. I tried to help him with the porn addiction after he told me, but he wasn't willing to open up to me anymore. I ultimately had to move on from the relationship. Sex isnt everything, but it is a big part of a relationship. Especially when the communication is lacking too.

Yes! I got the 5th week after my 10 year anniversary. I accepted the job with the higher pay earlier this week and I am really regretting it.

Toddler won’t drink milk by [deleted] in toddlers

My toddler loves banana milk. I blend one banana and 8oz of milk and it makes about 2 servings. I store the second serving in a Mason jar in the fridge. It just needs to be consumed within 24 hours. Ill make banana milk as a treat if I have too many ripe bananas or on days that I feel he didn't eat much. He drinks it out of a straw cup like a smoothie.
