What’s your biggest challenge while planning date nights after kids?
I’ve been thinking about how hard it can be to make time for each other after having kids.
I also started a group called Couples Time After Kids where we can share realistic date ideas, what’s worked for us, and ways to stay connected even when life gets busy.
Would love for you to join and share your experiences!

Childcare and where we want to go are often opposite directions . I don’t want to drive 20 minutes one way to drop my sons off to back track an hr a different direction for a date to then pass home again to go pick up the kids
What do you talk about when you talk to each other so much all day ahahhahaha
Like without talking about the kids ?

Return to work 🥺🩵
At what age did you ladies go back to work after having your babies? ❤️
My little boy is 8 months old (almost 9), and I’ve recently been offered a really great opportunity to work for a company my friend works for. It’s an opportunity I’m genuinely excited about, but I’m also feeling quite emotional at the thought of leaving my little boy.
I honestly hadn’t really thought about going back to work just yet, as my partner has never once pressured me to find a job or even mentioned me needing to go back. I’ve been really lucky in that sense and have been able to enjoy this time with my baby without that pressure.
Now that an opportunity has come up, it’s made me realise that I might actually have to think about it, and I don’t know if I’m quite ready emotionally! 🥹
I know every mum is different, but I’d love to hear your experiences. How old were your little ones when you went back to work, and how did you find it? Did you feel ready, or did you struggle with the thought of leaving them? 💗

Sex just isn’t the same…
I used to LOvE sex. Was what my man and I would do anytime of day. I just had two babies back to back and now it’s just not the same. I don’t know if it’s postpartum or what. I hate my body first and foremost. I have never been comfortable with my body shape but after these back to back babies I feel like I still look pregnant so getting naked doesn’t feel sexy anymore. My husband says he loves my body, but inside I feel he just says it to make me feel better so I’m more likely to get freaky with him.
On top of body issues I’m F***ing tired! I’m a stay home mom for now (which is new, I have always worked) and with the constant go go go, crying babies, cleaning, stressing, shopping. I’m drained.
I hope things just a phase and I can become more sexually active with my husband. I do try to sleep with him to keep him happy but sometimes it’s just that.
Anyone else having these problems??

Wifey friends?
I’m 25 and I just recently had my son Kiah in July and I’ve never been “friendly” in a way like I made friends in stores because I’m funny or something but I’m in a new era of my life and I’m looking for some friends that are wives.

Hi!
My name is Rao, I'm a very awkward person and people often say loud or a lot. I really don't have a lot of friends I assume because of mentioned above. I enjoy doing my own nails and I'm learning to crochet. I am definitely a 420 mom. I usually have a lot of drama in my life unintentionally so if you love to hear tea being spilt I got you. It's less shit talking and more girl you won't guess what's happening now. But I'm always happy to hear yours too. I am lonely and have a habit of oversharing as a result, but don't be afraid to tell me if it's just too much for you. I hope to find some friends soon! Please, message me and ask me anything, even if it's just to see if we could be compatible friends ❤️
