My daughter just had her 4th child, and her husband offers no help. She has depression, and the stress has caused her milk to dry up. All we need is a little help every so often, I think it's fair considering what we go through giving birth and raising kids. Side note my girl found out her hubby of 14 years has cheated since the beginning πŸ’” please πŸ™πŸΌ for her if you believe because this sweetheart has been the wife men would love to have and now she thinks she is worthless 😭

Must men are no help but they sure like to show the little ones off. A mother should never have to ask the husband/father for a few hours a month just to breathe. Most men are not right in their thinking.

I'm all about self care. But watching someone write to just wait till the kids are in bed obviously doesn't have multiple crotch rockets running around. by the time that time comes we are ready for bed as well!!

When you have to "ask" the father of "HIS" children to watch his own children...yeah.. I'm not asking, I am going to say...take over, I need some STLC.

She shouldn’t have said all of that. She told her β€œhusband,” the β€œfather” of her children she needs two hours, she deserves that and some more, no question or explanation.

Men have no idea what it is to be a stay at home mom. It’s the hardest job in the world if you’re doing it right. You don’t even have time to use the bathroom by yourself. Take those kids for a few hours man. They’re yours too.

it doesn't matter what all she needs to do to herself to make her feel like herself. you fell in love with that woman who kept up with herself. and she needs to feel the love within herself. St ya mess n say babe you go do you, and let me know when ur done. then take her out to lunch.

That’s crazy how a lot of moms neglect themselves once they have babies. It’s okay to leave the baby alone asleep Or have them with you in a Boucher or portable baby sleeper while you shower and take care of yourself self. That’s is the reason why they have baby monitors
