Chessington stay question
Just curious about what other mums would do. My brain isn’t braining night now,
We have a 2 night stay at the park coming up, at the time we will be there the park will be closing by 4pm which is annoying, 6pm on the weekend.
We arrive on a Thursday and leave on Saturday, I’ve just realised now that check in is after 3pm and checkout is by 10am🙄. I called to check if parking times are affected by hotel check in or out times and they’ve said no but I don’t know if I should use the tickets for Thursday Friday, or Friday Saturday?
Our kiddo naps at 1-2ish, and won’t sleep in a moving car lol. So either stationary in the car or in the room. Hubby says we should get there early the Thursday and use the ticket for Thursday Friday and let her nap in the car parked up, I’m thinking Friday Saturday so we have the whole days kind of, and she can nap in the car stationary I guess. But all our stuff would be packed up into the car so we’ll basically be “outside” all day which isn’t great but isn’t terrible… 🤷🏻♀️
It’s annoying that the park closes so early given the ride waiting times, the time it takes to get around. You’d think it’d be quieter in September after back to school but it isn’t, the rooms we wanted were almost gone. Also if anyone has recommendations for other stays or trips in the UK that are great for a 2 year old please share!!

Why don’t you just pay for an early check and late check out? How many days tickets have you paid for?
Oh I called them earlier (for a stay next year) and they said you could
Erm
In that case Friday Saturday xx

What is wrong with me and how do I fix it 😩 (sorry for posting here but keep posting this everywhere and not getting any replies and this is the only group where loads of people respond)
So ever since the first trimester I just haven’t been wanting sex at all- im 2 years post partum. I went through a horny stage in the second trimester but that didn’t last very long and for the past two years as well I’m just not fussed at all. I could go weeks if not months without sex, I’m not bothered. Obviously we do have sex every week but I never initiate it and I don’t particularly enjoy it when we do do it, I’m just there sort of forcing myself to do it. Does this mean I don’t love my partner anymore?? (I feel like I do and I am attracted to him and everything so it makes no sense). I’m so worried about it and so is he. I used to be a sex addict, I’d literally always be wanting it, even when I was single I always had sex with people on a regular basis because I loved it so much. I just can’t keep blaming it on post partum and I don’t have any more excuses for why I don’t want it but I just don’t. Nothing turns me on now, not even the things that used to before, I don’t even like my nipples being touched like I used to- still breastfeed but only mornings and evenings and not for very long so idk if that has something to do with that.

Mamas, Am I overreacting?
I've been friends with these lovely ladies since our uni days. We used to meet up, go out, etc. Since finishing uni, getting married, and having my baby, we don't really talk much anymore, which is fair enough, we're all busy with life.
After I gave birth, I had my baby's naming ceremony a few months later. None of them could make it. One said it was too far, one had work, one didn't even open my message to see the invite, and another had travelled. Since having my baby, not one of them has come to visit me.
Now, 6 months into motherhood, they're suggesting we all meet up and go out. I honestly can't be bothered. Am I overreacting?
What also doesn't sit right with me is that no one has made the effort to come and see me, but now they want to meet halfway and bring my baby along? It almost feels like they want to see the baby now that it's convenient for them. That doesn't really sit well with me.
We have a group chat, and I haven't replied to the messages about meeting up yet. They want us to meet halfway since we all live in different places.
Would you:
- Not go at all?
- Go but leave the baby at home with my mum?
- Or just say I'm not comfortable bringing my baby out yet?
For context, she's exclusively breastfed. The only place I've really taken her is to one wedding with my husband. We haven't done trains or long trips yet, so I'm genuinely not comfortable with that either.
I think I'm feeling a bit hurt because none of them have made the effort to visit me during these past 6 months, especially when becoming a mum has been such a huge life change.
Am I doing too much, or would you feel a bit off too? I lowkey don’t want to go tbh , but would be nice just to go out!
