New Here

Hiya. I have a 4 month old boy and don't really know anyone in the area. I've been going to hartbeeps on Mondays, but other than that, not much yet. Would love to connect with others as well as find out what else I can do with my baby to make life more interesting for him, and me.

I WISH I HAD A HUSBAND WHO COOKED FOR ME

Don’t you dare comment about how your man cooks for you- you’ll just make me cry😭😂 Cuz if you do have one of those, GOOD FOR YOU, I mean it.❤️😭🥹
As for the ones who don’t, let me hear it.😤😭

How do you get your employer to let you WFH?

I work in insurance and we have multiple agents who work from home already.

I've asked to WFH and I've been denied. Apparently no new requests for WFH are being approved anymore.

I've not been given a reason as to why just rather that I'm not allowed to.

I know it's a right to request flexible working and they have to provide a reason for this legally so I'm going to press on it a little but I'm wondering if anyone has any tips?

Thanks x

Babies first.. everything?

Am I terrible that I don’t feel the need to buy my son gifts for his first holidays. He’s 5 months old now
We didn’t do anything crazy for Christmas, new years, Valentine’s Day, Easter. I just don’t see the point right now. He won’t remember. He gets all and every toy I think he should have to help with development. We have a case of books from my shower we barely put a dent in reading….
I just don’t see the point in spending the money right now

*first birthday will be a HUGE exception pending on movement/development at that time**

How are we all feeling?

I have a 20 month old boy who is so lucky to have an amazing dad that is basically solo parenting at the minute because I’m too exhausted to parent.

I’m usually really active and busy but all I want to do is lie in bed and it’s making me feel really depressed and lonely because I miss spending time with my son and husband.

I also feel really guilty that I do nothing all day apart from moan about how shit I feel!

Anyone else?
