I'm going to be 21 in April in October I'm planning to go to Vegas which I want to drink . I'm a single mom and no one but me watches my daughter sometimes very rare my parents do. They will be going. My cousin wants to watch my daughter and such. I asked her if Sunday should could watch her for an hour so that my daughter will be used to her. My dad looked at me with discuss. Why do I feel like a bad mom? should I feel this way ?
@mommmyof1, if they don't want your kid to come and you feel super comfortable leaving her in the care of your cousin then I say go for it! As long as you trust your cousin, if your dad gives you looks just explain you want to have a birthday celebration that you deserve. Being a mom, a single mom nonetheless is a full time job and you deserve a little break! wishing you luck :)
@cynthiadeni, they are coming with and no One really wants my kid to come 😓
I went through the same thing for my 21st birthday, it's perfectly normal to feel like that but you aren't a bad mom. It's your birthday and you deserve at least one night out. I went out for my 21st birthday and my parents watched he baby, I just didn't stay out all night and I didn't get too hammered so that way when I came home I could be with my baby without my parents judging me.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
