To be angry with husband

He used sensitive toothpaste on 22 month old. I know you can use normal adult toothpaste safely but specifically told him the other day no whitening or sensitive. He said he didn't notice and it won't hurt as a one off. Anyone know why it's not recommended? How annoyed should I be?

You need to get a hobby, tbh.

Nicknacky · 16/08/2019 09:46

I don’t think I would have cared about this at all. How do you even know?

whothedaddy · 16/08/2019 09:48

not annoyed. It was an error. would have done the child no harm. Calm the fuck down.

We all make parenting mistakes give him a break.

scarecrowhead · 16/08/2019 09:49

Why 2 threads on this ?

NeverGotMyPuppy · 16/08/2019 09:49

It was a one off mistake. Dont be so ridiculous

WorraLiberty · 16/08/2019 09:53

He said he didn't notice and it won't hurt as a one off.

At least one of you is sensible then.

Being a new(ish) parent is bloody hard work. There are so many things that we can worry about - or not. There are (possible) dangers everywhere - is this safe? is that safe? Can we go here? etc etc.

But, bear in mind that children are now safer than ever, with better outcomes than at any point in history, and try to realise that at 22 months in, you're BOTH already doing a good job.

Don't sweat the small stuff and have fun with your child....

So my answer to your question is not at all. You shouldn't be annoyed at all....

(My original answer was going to be much more sacrcastic, but sometimes we just need a thumbs up from strangers to know everything's ok)

Not ideal but certainly not something to get worked up! There will be much bigger issues to deal with, make the choice now to let little things go

Fatted · 16/08/2019 10:32

I wouldn't be so annoyed to make two threads about it

pooopypants · 16/08/2019 10:41

You have too much time on your hands OP. PFB by any chance?

You'll have far bugget things yo worry about in your child's life, let this one go.

Aprillygirl · 16/08/2019 10:44

OMG you should be iridescent with fucking rage OP!!!. Actually no, I think you're being a bit sensitive toothfully Wink

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 16/08/2019 11:06

Why have you started another thread about this non-issue?

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 16/08/2019 11:07

Actually no, I think you're being a bit sensitive toothfully wink

You’ve already posted this, said you were pissed off because he wasn’t parenting your way.

RogueV · 16/08/2019 11:09

Wow
I thought I was anal about stuff like this

Chill your beans

NeedingAdvice29 · 16/08/2019 11:10

Also thought you’d read up on how to parent and what to do. Do you live under a bridge by any chance?

Vasya · 16/08/2019 11:10

Would you be happy if he got angry with you every time you do something less than perfect as you learn how to be parents? It was a mistake and it won't do any harm just once.

Is this a symptom of other anxiety/depression/pnd OP?

BananasAreTheSourceOfEvil · 16/08/2019 12:13

@Aprillygirl brilliant Grin

tobedtoMNandfart · 16/08/2019 12:24

@Aprillygirl did you mean iridescent? Or incandescent?! Grin

Hello,

The OP inadvertently posted two threads so we're going to close this (shorter) one and direct everyone over to this one, to avoid any confusion.
