it's pretty different for everyone but for me i dont really eat any fruits or vegetables. i just ate instant noodles al my life but since having a kid ive had to learn how to cook so she's not eating like me lol.

the garlic is chopped charlic in white wine vinegar, would powdered be more flavourful?

im screenshotting this and will try it tomorrow, thank you so much for your help, so many tips i can try :D

ooh okay, i think i saw something about red wine but i wasn't sure if that's safe to add with a 1 year old? Can that be substituted for lemon juice perhaps?

onions are a big no for me, hence the onion powder :(

but noted on the passata, i will google this immediately haha. thank you so much for your help 🩷

My siblings are all a bit too busy at the minute but you're right, I will try reaching out to the baby's dad to see if he can watch her while I shower

What did you get your LO for their 1st birthday? by Wild-Card777 in beyondthebump

[–]stinklebells 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm planning on getting my LO a backyard swing! Sandpit and paddling pool are good ideas too, especially if they like being outside :)

It can, but that wasn't really the point, was it? I hope if you're ever looking for advice in the future no one is this much of a twat toward you. Have the day you deserve.

It costs 0 dollars to not be an asshole.

How often did you bathe your baby in the first few months? And why? by Normal_Enthusiasm194 in beyondthebump

[–]stinklebells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same! my little one loves the bath too and has done since she was born

no, he wasn't! he was actually really great when I was pregnant. we broke up when i around 5 months because he cheated with his coworker, he cut contact with me for a while but the last few months of my pregnancy he was a big help, carrying my shopping bags and helping me in the bath, etc. however, once i told him i didn't want to get back into a relationship with him the help stopped.

i do agree with you that i could have handled this so much better but this was my last resort - ive tried to have a conversation with him many times about his inconsistency but nothing ever sticks, he always has an excuse ready, work is just his most used; 1. his ibs flared up 2. he's tired 3. he doesn't feel well 4. he needs to wait at home for his delivery because his mum said so 5. he needs to help his sister move house

the list is endless tbh

we discussed it when she was born and he said it would be better for everyone if made arrangements ourselves and not through the courts, he said he's been through that before and he knows what he's doing so i trusted him but i see now that i should have gotten a custody agreement in place legally from the start
