Hi all, we are doing shared parental leave so have just swapped with my partner looking after our daughter for the next 3 months and I was wondering if there are any in person dad groups meeting weekdays he could join. There are a few meeting on Saturdays but surely there must be more dads out there on parental leave. So far he has taken our little one far to a few of the groups i used to go but it's all only moms 🙃

If you look on Instagram there's a page called Bristol Daddin, who run events if he's interested.
I also run Little Glow sensory rooms (in Cadbury Heath) for babies newborn to pre walking of he's interested. It is mostly mums but I do tend to have 1 or 2 dad's at most sessions

There’s a dads group at oldbury court on Mondays, not sure if it’s for babies or toddlers. I tend to find groups catering for littler babies are mostly mums and stay and plays/ library sessions are more mixed. There’s usually a few dads at story time at St George’s library, and the stay and play at the community centre.

There's a fair few men who bring their kids to the st George library rhyme times (you have to book on a Tuesday though!)
y’all are boring to talk to ðŸ˜ðŸ˜‚ like damn, i just want friendships where the conversation actually flowssss. i don’t wanna feel like i’m carrying the conversation or i’m the only one being open & actually trying. ask questions, tell stories, share random shit, let’s skip the awkward small talk & talk like we’ve known each other forever 😂 i wanna feel like i’m talking WITH you, not interviewing you lmao.

If you’re on here begging for a friend and then use one word replies and then ghost. . You’re WEIRD. . And this app isn’t for you. . IDK about you . But I’m on here to make REAL friends that are capable of holding a conversation!… and NOT talking about themselves the ENTIRE time. . Girl bye. 👋..

I've already given up on the friendship because it was so one-sided, it was all about her it was all about being an audience to her and everything happening in her life.
Story of my Life where most female friends only become friends with me because it makes them look popular meanwhile if we hang out all I hear is about their traumas. There's never any real interest or even questions about our lives and if we happen to have gotten sick and couldn't agree to an outing it never seemed to be an acceptable response
I'm just so confused at female friendships and I just need to hear the truth once and for all. Am I just falling for poor friendships what are they even supposed to feel like because personally I honestly feel they should be reciprocal and there should be genuine interest back and forth
So this old friend saw my Instagram story posts and like them and then texted saying we're doing great and that she published a book and to check it out
And I'm just like okay. Again it's still all about her right?
I'm trying to understand if I'm seeing things clearly or not

In search of other moms who are fighting for HOTNESS back!
I once was a baddie, and I can admit it’s taken a downhill ride since baby BUT I am fighting for it back. I need likeminded friend/friends who I can get fine with. Share makeup tips, hair style inspo, share outfits with. Just girls trying to help each other find theirselves again!
