Roswell Mom meet up?

Hi all- I just downloaded this app & idk what I’m doing, but I’d love to meet some mamas nearby. Anyone interested in a group meet up in a park in Roswell? Maybe next weekend (weather permitting)? I’ve got a 9.5 month old boy and would love to meet some people with similar age babies!

Heyyy! I stay off Holcomb bridge. I have a 14 month old girl (Callie) and 4 year old boy (Carter) 🥰

Hi 👋🏼 thanks for posting! Hopefully we can get a few mamas interested and get something together!

Hey I’m Kim, my babies are a little bit older 3,5, and 8 but im also in Roswell and would love to connect!

I’m interested! I have a 4 year old boy and an almost 1 year old boy.

I’m interested as well! I have a 1 year old boy 🥰

Have 8 month old baby girl, located in Roswell. Thanks for such a lovely initiative. Let’s plan a meet up soon with all you lovely moms out there with our babies.

Does next Saturday work for y’all? I’m also open next Sunday, but the weather on Saturday looks better for now. Maybe around the warmer part of the day if we are going to shoot for a park like around 3-4ish? (I know nap schedules can be tough! I think we can keep it very casual as far as time and just maybe have an open hour or 2 and people can come and go as they want?)

LMK if you’ve got thoughts! There’s lots of great parks in Roswell if anyone has a favorite. We usually go to Sweet Apple Park which has a couple playgrounds for any older kids, but I’m totally down to check out whatever is around!

Im down!

Let’s exchange numbers?

Yes, we can do that to finalize details and such if everyone wants to do that privately. Just wanted to get a rough idea out there first!

If you want to DM me your numbers once I get them all I can start a group text? And if anyone comes along and is reading this in a few days and wants to join just DM me when you see it and I’ll add you!

Yes, I am good with next Saturday. Mostly during the afternoon is when we get the best of the sun and 8 month old tends to stay awake at that time the longest. Either ways they can choose to sleep we can hangout.

We love going to the River side parks for a good walk around the trail and then for a picnic spot with a view we go to Morgan falls. Haven’t been to sweet Apple Park, would love to go their aswell.

Did you all do this meet up? Sounds fun! If you happen to do another I would love to join.

I’m interested! I have a 16 month old girl 🥰

Am I wrong for wanting this 1 day still even now and should I let it go and get over it?

My youngest is 17 weeks and was prem and then and I gave birth via emergency c section alone. Dispite the in laws sitting with the other children and travelling a distance to be with them all weekend he chose to have fish n chips with them and relax a few hours before coming to see me and baby, tea breaks n fag breaks too no rushing. I was seperated from baby so my friend went on as birthing partner after to be with baby until I was well enough as I aspirated and nearly died and hemorrhaged which doctors called to tell him. He then briefly visited once and I was in for 3 days n he had a whole 2 sitters n parents who do everything. I got out of hospital very unwell, sore n struggling more than ever before and i asked for one day of being in the bedroom with baby for one day uninterrupted unless he wanted to make me a cuppa and a sandwich but for him to watch the kids n do housework n keep on top of things for one day so I could put the tele on, pig put on snacks n cuddle baby for a day. He refused its been 4 months n any time I ask for this one day I cant have it. Then a family event come up and its a drive of a few hours so I asked he takes the others as his family take over n would help anyway n he wouldnt do anything and I take this day with the baby. He freaked out..how will that look to them.. I cant cope with all the other kids on my own.. I want u there. May I add my bleeding was irregular so this day I just came on so heavily I was wearing 4 pads n soaking through by each hour. He also missed mothers day and my birthday this year and keeps starting arguments over petty things. I feel like booking me and baby in at a hotel just to have that time for like 24 hours. He had no issues last minute mid crazy busy time dinner, baths, medicines n housework n cleaning n laundry time 3 days in a row saying his popping out for a motorbike ride 3:30pm until 9/10pm then come back n complained i didnt out effort into dinner. Is it just expected that the woman cant have time? I also booked a pedicure (first one in 2 years) home visit one and asked him to be out n take the toddler he out the toddler to bed screaming 5 mins after the lady arrived n then went the opposite end n took a nap in the bedroom (one level home) he just ignored her so I couldnt get 1 hour either. He thinks theres nothing wrong with what I done because its life that I dont get pamper time as apparently he doesnt (does) 2 hour showers n 1 hour poops a day like give me strength.

Am I wrong for still craving that one day of peace and rest just one day? Is it too late and should I let it all go n get over it now?

Having your babies too close together

I’m a 39 year-old stay at home mom. I didn’t have my first baby until 37 and we really wanted him to have a sibling. So we had a second baby when I was 38. I love both my babies so so much. But now I just feel like a shit, mom

My two year-old isn’t speaking yet. And we’re looking into speech therapy. I feel like I have no time to actually play with my children. I’m always just cleaning feeding changing and cleaning some more. I don’t feel like I have the time to sit and teach and play.

people like to say things like the dishes can wait. But the dishes can’t wait. I need to use them to make the next meal. I need my house to be safe and sanitary. My house is trashed. My husband refuses to help. I feel like I’m missing out on so much.

I can’t regret having my second child so close because I love him so much. But I do regret that there’s not more time to teach my two-year-old. That there’s not more time to snuggle my nine month old.

Every single day is just survival mode. I know things will get easier, but I also don’t wanna miss this magical time with my kids.

There are some easier days. But most days are still really hard. And I just cry because I don’t feel like my kids and I are enjoying each other.

Potty training

I’m am trying so hard to keep my shit together but my son just will not use the toilet anymore now resulting in blisters on his bum from sitting in his poop all night long and the peeing in his underwear. I don’t know what else to try we’ve exhausted every method on the internet and I’m ready to call it quits and just put him back in diapers

Baby constantly feeding

My baby is just under 3 weeks old and it feels like he’s constantly wanting to be fed. He’ll do his hunger cues (sticking tongue out, hands to face, sucking motion with his mouth) almost immediately after feeding - like within 10 mins. He can feed for 40mins - 1hr30 at a time like constantly sucking, where he might settle for an hour, but the shorter 15-20min feeds where he takes himself off the boob or falls asleep, he will start his hunger cues/start screaming within 10 mins.

He’s doing lots of wees and poos- about 6 -8 dirty nappies a day and even more heavy wees so I don’t think he’s actually hungry?

I’m so overwhelmed as to what to do because I just can’t put him down and my nipples are so sore.

Nursery vs childminders

Hi, looking for some experience on childminders and nurserys, my girl will be 2 when she starts, shes been to classes and around other children but is quite attached and timid and gentle, i personally think she’d get overwhelmed at a nursery and would do better at a childminders- im just looking to hear peoples experiences if their kids are similar / just general anecdotes

We’ve just decided to start trying for baby #2 but since all we do is argue

Maybe it's just a strange coincidence, but a couple of months ago my husband and I had the most amazing weekend together. We really connected, had some deep heart to heart conversations, and ultimately decided that we wanted to grow our family. 🥰
For about a week, we were both so excited. Then, out of nowhere, we started bickering and arguing constantly. Don't get me wrong we argue like any normal couple from time to time, but this feels different. It feels more intense than our usual disagreements.
Of course, I plan to talk to him about it and figure out what's going on, but it's frustrating that this has happened now, of all times. We've never really let things get to this point before. It's affecting me more than I'd like to admit. I'm losing sleep over it because, at our core, we're still very much in love. After all, we were excited enough to start trying for another baby. But lately, the way we've been communicating, you'd think we couldn't stand each other.
It's also not exactly helping our intimacy, so there's definitely no baby making happening right now!
Do you think deciding to try for another baby could have unintentionally put pressure on us and brought underlying issues to the surface? I genuinely can't work it out.
From my perspective, he's suddenly started annoying me more than usual. I wear my heart on my sleeve, and I know I can be guilty of picking battles that probably aren't worth fighting. That's something I need to take responsibility for.
His weakness is that if he disagrees with something I've said, he can become quite defensive. He also tends to present his opinions as facts, which drives me absolutely mad.
I know this probably sounds toxic when written down, but I promise we're actually a loving couple. I adore him. He's a wonderful husband, an amazing father, and I can't imagine growing old without him or not having more babies with this man.
So now I'm wondering, should we put baby number two on hold for a while, or stick to the plan? We're definitely not talking about separating here, and I don't want to put our future family plans on hold because of a few months of petty arguments.
What would you do? Have you been here before?? Did you put off growing a family while you navigated a rocky patch?
