Is it normal to feel like your baby doesn’t like you? My 8 month old is less responsive to me than she used to be and gets fussy. She seems to really love her babysitter though and cry’s when leaving. Am I doing something wrong? @Akse

In your situation, I would be upset too. But let’s look at this more closely. You leave to go to work and the babysitter takes over. Don’t know how many hours a day you work, but let’s say 8 hours. The baby sees the babysitter at the BEST time during the day. She is awake, rested and fed. You see your own child during harder times. You need to feed her, change her and put her to bed.. You may have much less interaction with her than the babysitter. And, don’t forget you are tired from working and may not be at your best, whereas for the babysitter, this is their job. At 8 months it is natural for your child be be exploring her world a bit more and actually goes through a period where she may be a bit more concerned about people less familiar to her. She will outgrow this and it is normal.

I have gone through my child's death because of premature delivery. My husband is blaming me for that and taking a divorce from me. My all inlaws are against me. After marriage my husband and in laws started mentally torturing me .Nowadays I am dealing with lots of depression and stress. I am suffering sleepless nights. Please help me. How can I overcome the depression and stress caused by my husband blaming me for our child's premature death and my in-laws' mental torture, while dealing with sleepless nights and the threat of divorce?
I'm deeply sorry to hear about the immense pain and suffering you're experiencing. t’s crucial to prioritize your mental health and well-being during this incredibly time.Establish a strong support system by reaching out to friends or family members who can offer emotional support, and consult with a lawyer to understand your rights regarding the divorce and potential legal support against the mental torture.Set clear boundaries by limiting contact with people contributing to this stress and create a comforting space for yourself, focus on future,small achievable goals.Prioritize self-care by creating a calming bedtime routine to improve your sleep quality,Incorporate mindfulness meditation and relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises to manage stress.Journaling your thoughts and feelings can be therapeutic, and practicing daily gratitude can help shift your focus towards positive aspects of your life. Pl remember healing takes time and you deserve compassion. Stay strong
Maybe the death of your baby is a sign that this marriage is not for you. I hope you are healed and find peace. Start with positive thinking. This may sound cliche but what you think is where life takes you. Remember that this is only today, tomorrow will be entirely a different chapter, and you don't know what blessings await you. So just sail through it having faith that God is preparing you to receive some great blessings soon.

How long should I remain silent and not talk to my husband after a fight?? We recently fought over how bad his mother treats me, and he couldn’t digest it at all. Since then we have both been mum. Shall I start a conversation or wait for him to do so?

Hello Dear. I'm a Consultant Psychologist and Sexual Health Expert. I would say, not talking would not benefit the relationship in anyway. I would suggest that you respect his feeling towards his mother but also let him know that you would feel the same way too. If he wouldn't take your side and support you, you would feel extremely hurt is something you need to clearly communicate. Also, let him know your intention is not to hurt his mother or him but for you to feel like he would protect you. Hope this was helpful. Do join my live sessions if you have any more questions.

How can I assert my need for privacy without hurting the feelings of my mom and dad??
hi there, it has always been challenging to assert your needs for privacy in front of your parents. but I'm a clinical psychologist and can help you with this situation. one of the major keys to finding a dialogue between them is to have an honest, clear and empathetic communication wherein all perspectives are stated and respected but a common ground is been found. To do this, choosing the right time and setting is empirical. Find a calm and private place to talk to your parents free from distractions and interruptions so that they also value this conversation. I can help you move with the aspects of communication. I hope to see you and hear from you soon in one of my live sessions. Take care and I hope you get what you're looking for

There's been a breakdown in trust between me and my teenager. They made a big mistake, and now things are tense. How do you rebuild a relationship with your child after trust has been broken? Is communication the key, or are there other things I can do to show them I love them and want to move forward?
hi there, I'm so sorry to hear about this. I am a clinical psychologist and I would like to help you with this. rebuilding trust with your teenager after a breakdown involves a blend of open communication, empathy and consistent good behavior.Start by having an honest conversation about the mistake, focusing on understanding their perspective and expressing your feelings without judgment, show empathy by acknowledging their emotions and challenges they face. It is crucial to establish clear expectations and consequences/ punishments moving forward, but equally important to reinforce your love and commitment to their well-being.Demonstrate trust through small gradual steps, allowing them to earn back your confidence. consistency in our actions and responses will help build their sense of security and trust. Trust is a build over time through genuine of efforts and mutual respect.

Hos can I make new friends in adulthood?? I am currently struggling to do so but I really don’t want to. I want to have memories to look forward when i grow old with my family.
Anonymous10d
Hello there. I am Deepti Acharya, a counselling psychologist and relationship coach. Thanks a lot for reaching out. I understand your confusion. Making friends as an adult can be quite challenging. However, it helps to understand what kind of friendships you seek. You can try to journal pointers on what qualities and elements you seek in friendships. Now that you have more insight about it, you can find ways of seeking like minded people, through online Meetup events, hobby spaces, etc. Sometimes it also helps to reconnect with old friends with too. You could always tune in to my upcoming live sessions on similar topics, and call me for more solutions. Hope this was helpful. All the best!

Wow congratulations. I suggest you to earn extra income for your dreams. Share your qualification in my WhatsApp number +919435110521 for work from home opportunity
hi this is very challenging situation for every pregnant lady. first of all you should say thank to God and say thanks to upcoming baby to come in your life. Actually at this point of time our emotions always be high, we expected more from others and when we don't get positive response from them then we feel so bad. so decently it will be effect to our baby. so in that situation just close your eyes for 20 secs and just recall all those movements or dream whatever you have seen for your dream life, then open your eyes and touch you belly with you both hand. trust me you will be feel better or much better.
