Trigger. Lost baby Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
So my bf just beat the hell out of my dog and idk what to do now. I want to leave but don't have my paper yet to take my dog with me anywhere I go

I agree with the other ladies, any toys found on the ground after a certain time limit get put in a big bag and donated !
With the trash situation, I would simply say if any of your trash is being left on the floor or getting thrown behind the couch you will no longer be allowed to eat beyond the kitchen table. Every time I find 1 peice of trash you will be doing "blank" chore to make up for making the house messy. Such as sweeping or vacuuming. Hold to your guns because mice and any other bugs the trash will attract would be way worse then discipline!

Make it a game. See who can pick up the toys fastest.
Give consequences for not doing what they’re told.
Reward food behavior when they do pick up their toys

Limit eating/snacking to only the kitchen table. No eating in any other room. And I third the ‘throwing away’ of the toys. I still have to use that tactic with my 5yr old on occasion & I’ve kept toys from him for a month before. And other times when his behavior is very bad. I make him put everything in the bag & we’ve went & donated it that day. Kids need to be reminded that moms are not slaves & they are capable of being independent. And they need shown that not ever kids has the toys they have & they need to be taken care of our they go to a new home that will appreciate them more. Sometimes tough love is needed.

Being a mom 24 yrs of my life 👌 take the Broom and a big black lawn garbage bag Tell them it’s clean up time or whatever is on floor and not organized in a toy bin or shelf is going in here ! It works u will see them run after the first broom sweep hahah they are definitely old enough to understand at 8&6yrs old and make them donate toys to kids who have nothing in shelters too so they can appreciate what they do have !

I'm goin to so do that. But the main thing is my son he likes to throw his garbage like snacks and stuff that he eat he tries to hide them under the couch or just throw them on the floor.. I have tried telling him he don't want to live like a slob an to pick his stuff up an he just refuses to so anything for me he also has behavior problems that we r trying to work on

by 4th grade i taught my son’s as well to do their laundry they had a basket for dirty clothes and they learn to be organized,no one is a maid by 8especially he’s capable to not hide wrappers and to get up and not be lazy to throw in trash

A little tough love? “Throw away” the stuff they won’t pick up (just hide it) and be like if you’re going to treat your things like you don’t care about them then you don’t need them.
