I finally did it AND 💩
Drove to a local library for “babies and bubbles” time. Trying to get better about getting out for my 16mth old. I don’t drive a lot since an accident before being pregnant and now just get a lot of anxiety towards it. Being responsible for him and trusting the general public to handle themselves safely. (I was hit and pinned in my car by someone driving past traffic in the shoulder illegally) Well I did it, 20 minutes each way. Was all good, that at least went well.
Well? Got there, 10 minutes before door opened by accident. & then?
No one showed for the class or whatever.
So, The librarian let us just play by ourselves for 20 minutes. Sweet of her not to turn us away. But it was pretty pointless in the socializing department obviously 😞
Sigh. It’s like whenever I really TRY, it’s always met with defeat. I really hate it. My rejection syndrome spirals
Large birthday gifts but no space!!!
My baby has just tuned 1 and has been gifted so many large birthday gifts that we just don’t have space for in our small end of terrace house.
I am very grateful for everyone who has spent money on my baby but I just cannot store all of these huge presents (ride on electric car, ball pit, water and sand table, indoor trampoline, 4ft stuffed teddy, summer house and indoor climbing set.
We have a small garden, no garage and a spare box room that is currently used for storage. Our son’s bedroom is small to say the least and barely has room for a cot, wardrobe, bookshelf and dresser.
Unfortunately, we cannot afford to move to a bigger house due to our preferred living area (family and work) being expensive and me retuning on a part time basis means we have less money.
Previously, we had politely asked family to buy smaller gifts or give money for my son’s bank account. We could then buy 1-2 large gifts that we can store or save the money towards his future.
What do I do? I literally have nowhere to store these, let alone have the space for my little boy to actually play with them. I try to only store what we need but I genuinely cannot throw away anything to make space for all of these new gifts.
