AIBU to think that my daughter is a chilled and easy baby who has slept 11 hours a night from the age of 9 weeks because of my fantastic parenting skills? Reader, my second child was a screamer who woke up to ten times a night for the first year and didn't sleep through until she was over two. Blush

Mine would be

AIBU to be having unprotected sex with my boyfriend which will lead to the conception of our 1st child in around 2 weeks. We're both 18 and working full time so we're all set for settling down, right?

Ans: yes we were BU and stupid idiots to think we were at all ready to commit to a life together and a baby, however i will never regret our lovely babies.

AIBU to keep the baby from an on-off relationship with a married man?

Answer was made for me sadly but had MN been known to me, I would have appreciated any advice. I was a naive 18 year old. This time 10 years ago was fucking awful.

PlopTheOwl · 01/10/2014 22:39

Ah, my 1 yr old is such a doddle. AIBU to have another one? I'll surely still be able to pursue my career and go to the gym and study in the evenings and keep my lovely house clean and maintain my nice social life.

Ha ha ha ha

(After a huge fall out with my mum, I moved in with him 3 months later...now been together for 10 years and married with 2 dc :) )

callipygian00 · 01/10/2014 22:49

Am I being unreasonable to say I'll go out with this guy just because I don't have the heart to say no? It's just he is SPORT MAD... Now happliy married to said guy. Although I have to watch a lot of sport.

ReallyQuiteConfused · 01/10/2014 22:54

AIBU to think my mother doesn't love me? She told me she hated me a couple years ago, makes me stay in my room constantly or shouts at me and finds reasons to give me in trouble. I can't stop crying because of it and it just makes her shout at me more.

I wasn't being unreasonable, no contact with her now. Does it make it better or worse to have not been unreasonable?

Icimoi · 01/10/2014 22:54

AIBU to think my boss is a total dickhead?
