Working Mamas - Help Please!

I’m due to return to work next month after my second maternity leave, currently at work I do three days, Mon-Wed. I’ve been offered to work Thursdays as well and I’m in two minds if I should.

Obviously the additional money will be a huge help, but it will mean less time with my girls and once my eldest starts school next year, after school childcare costs will be massive.


I’d also like to have a third little one, but after working out childcare costs once they’re in school I’m just not sure it would be possible 😭 the extra day at work would help with that cost, but it’s also the reason the cost is higher 🤦🏼‍♀️, just feel either way I’m losing! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Not sure what you do or why the extra day is being offered, but if it’s workload you can do independently, could you do more hours Monday to Wednesday? I work four days worth of compressed hours in three days.

OMG 😍

I put a dress on that is above the knee, never worn it before but I came downstairs and my partner saw me. He then followed me into the kitchen and was snogging my face off etc. I then prepped the dinner and was in the middle of cooking it, I went into the fridge to get something he came behind me pushed me against the wall and was being all sexual. Fridge was wide open the door was closing on him but he was touching me all over and even went down below and gave a cheeky 👅 he then turned me around and I stirred the food on the hob while he was lifting my dress up and sliding his c*** over my ass and p*ssy. He was kissing my neck and just feeling me all over telling me he wanted to fill every hole before he proceeded to slide into my p*ssy. We normally have sex in the bedroom but this felt wild in the moment and honestly I was so turned on it felt amazing.

Before we had children we would go and f*ck wherever we were, we didn’t care where we were and honestly it was so hot and romantic that I think this just felt amazing!! 🙈🙈

In job interviews, do you have to tell them you are being made redundant? Or can i still say i have 3 months notice period and i am working part time hours etc?

Is it liying? Can they find out? What do they ask when talking to references?

Relationship issues

Anyone else start feeling different toward your man. Just don’t even want sex or kisses or anything anymore? Starting to see them as a friend at this point. So weird.

New bestie??

Okayyy trying this I’m looking for a genuine friendship where we actually talk regularly not just the occasional “how are the kids? how are you?” every three weeks lol. I want the random texts, life updates, venting, sending each other things that made us laugh, talking about books/shows/movies, and eventually FaceTiming once we’re comfortable! I’m a mom of one little boy and would LOVE another mom who’s also looking for that close, everyday kind of bond. No pressure to respond 24/7 because obviously ✨life✨ 😂 but I’d really love someone who actually wants to get to know each other and build a real friendship. If that sounds like you, PLEASE come say hi because apparently we are both hiding from each other 😂💗
