Birthday gifts

My boy has been invited to his first birthday party, it is for a 2 year old girl. It’s someone from nursery and I don’t know her.
What is a reasonable amount to spend? Any ideas would also be welcome x

Honestly i wouldn’t spend too much!! i’d just buy a cute little colouring book, reading book, a little toy ect You can’t go wrong with gifts like that Xx

About £10? Not sure, haven’t had a nursery one yet but I would struggle to know how much too 🤔
Maybe a sticker book?

My little boy recently had his first nursery party and I didn’t have a clue! After speaking to other people they made good suggestions - paint your own piggy banks, craft set, board book etc. I wouldn’t spend more than £10. He’s going to another nursery party this weekend and I’ve bought the child a spidey bath book set for £7 cause his invitation had spidey and friends on it so I figured he was into that lol x

We did £5-£10 depends on how close they are and what we could afford honestly. If you have the parents number from an rsvp then I’d ask the question of what are they into - do they like animals or cars or colouring or puzzles etc? The works is normally our go-to for kids presents

I second the works! Loads of cheap gifts there x

Dads app!

I have been using this app for the last 6 months ish and found it brilliant for advice and making friends. My partner though doesn’t have any male friends who are dads and I was wondering if anybody knows of anything similar to this app that he could use to find some other dads local to us, to chat to/get advice/make friends etc. anyone any ideas? ☺️

In need of friends

I truly need friends to talk, vent and chat with whether it be text call or FaceTime I feel so alone even though I have people around me and my partner isn’t really being a partner in this time

Why no active moms :(

Every mom that’s around me don’t reply to my messages :( I’m currently with a 2 yr old and prego but I guess ppl don’t like to hang out with prego ppl :(

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!
