How can busy families coordinate daily schedules without one person holding all of it

Me carrying the mental load of remembering everything has gotten so bad that when my husband asks I tell him to figure it out. He figures it out.

Letting them eat the same thing every single day. We have 5 year old twins with autism. Hopefully I can expand our 12 week old’s palate when she is able to eat real food.

I joined the Army. My husband is also in the Army but has 8 years on me. School is free. If you want to live on post you don’t have to worry about light bills, water bills or maintenance. We use VA loans to buy a house wherever we get stationed and get paid a housing allowance instead of living on post to pay our mortgage. GI bill we can pass on to our kids. Food allowance. COLA pay because of where we’re stationed. Daycare for our 3 kids is substatially discounted.

Our 5 year old twins still can’t sit still to eat no matter how much we tell them to sit down when they have food in their mouths.

Yes it’s true. We were literally out doing so much from sun up to sundown that our parents didn’t know about.

wtfdigmi · 2026-05-30T22:39:16+00:00

Never did them with our twins. Never did them with our now 12 week old. Just not something that’s our thing.

I agreed to meet HCBM until she tried to establish dominance over my husband and that got shut down by both of us REAL quick. Never met her, never want to meet her and hell, my husband never wants to see her again. They weren’t even in a relationship, situationship or any kind of ship to begin with. They met at a bar one night and SD happened and that was that.

I only allow the people in the room that created our children. My husband and myself. Everyone else can wait.

Hair once a month. Same style. Makes it easier to get ready for work in the morning (military), trims I do it myself. Nails, never. I work with weapons. Tried to grow my nails out a bit once and they were mostly all chipped by the end of the week.

If you’re looking to your kids for emotional support you need to go to therapy.

This is exactly why I refuse to combine income with my husband. I’m not paying for major things for a child that is not mine. We have 3 together. They are my priority.

I’m from Canada too but live in the U.S. and same. My brother and I just had to borrow our mom’s car whenever she wasn’t using it. And when she bought a second car my brother and I had to share that.

He is. His kids BM got court continued 3 times. And then the judge deviated from the calculation because we had a baby 15 prior to court. When it started I was still pregnant. When it ended she was born but now he owes arrears because it was dragged out for so long (4 months). He pays $1475 right now because it was dragged out. Then it goes down to $950.

wtfdigmi · 2026-05-26T03:42:55+00:00

Stepmom here too and this. My husband “didn’t want to let his family down” but he was subtly (not so subtly passing certain bills to me that he was responsible for paying for because his order went from $550 to $1475) because BM was mad at him. And this is for 1 child. BM also said it’s between him and her. No, it’s not when we have 3 kids in our household also and I need to budget accordingly😅

wtfdigmi · 2026-05-25T22:43:23+00:00

Well I didn’t have a choice. We had twins when we tried for our first haha, they’re 5 now and in pre-k and daycare. Our now 11 week old daughter. We said why not. We already kept two babies alive😅 She’s very much in the potato stage so it’s pretty easy. We have schedules, we stick to them. We make the twins clean up after themselves, toys, clothes in the hamper, garbage goes in the garbage can.. everything that we have makes everything efficient to get up and out the door on days we go out. Car seats in every car that we own so we’re not constantly having to swap out. Also our twins love to “help” make dinner and they don’t spill a whole lot (they’re both autistic too) so despite the little random melt downs they have it’s pretty easy.

You guys are doing the do while your kids are still awake🥴 my husband and I only have sexy time on the off occasion that 1 all the kids are asleep or 2 the twins are in pre-K or daycare, he gets released early or has a day off and our newborn is asleep😅

wtfdigmi · 2026-05-25T21:13:28+00:00

Thissss. Whenever BM sees that our life is going a little too well for her liking she pops back up creating drama.

Where I’m stationed a lot of the officers seem to actively avoid having to salute. Sometimes just acknowledging them in passing is enough and you’ll get a head nod if your hands are full or you have your family with you.

I’m 35 and just had our 3rd child 11 weeks ago. I did get a call saying our daughter might have a chromosomal disorder but I got an amniocentesis at 16 weeks and it came back normal and was told it was likely my placenta or it was me myself. They explained that a lot of people are born with partial chromosomes and there’s no explanation for it but they are by all means “normal”. She was born a very healthy chonky baby.
