The mental load
Hey! Is anyone else finding they are drowning in the mental load at the moment?
The mental load of everything that comes with a toddler, plus Christmas and present preparation, plus work, plus everything to do with the house, plus our own social life, plus just anything you need for yourself 😅
I am very fortunate I have very supportive relationships around me, but if I’m asked one more time what we need from the shops when there is a shared shopping list or what kind of bread to get, I’ll scream 😅
Anyone found a way to quieten the noise down?😂

Some people don’t have a village at all, I would love for someone to ask me what I would like from the shops 😭 so I can’t relate. I understand the noise though, it’s so hard 🙈😩
Yes. Massively. I’m finding it really hard working, toddler life, Christmas prepping, 2 dogs & lack of village. It’s overwhelming and lonely at the same time 🙃
It’s so overwhelming. I am so sorry you are going through this.
The mental overload is overwhelming... there is always something to think about, i am going through quite a bit and its hard trying to find a way through.

MIL wants alone time with baby😬
My mils quite nice btw, I have nothing against her, lovely woman but she always says can’t wait to take the baby to the park or leave overnight when they’re like 2 or 3 but like I neverrr wanna leave my baby anywhere. I just find it weird why do you want alone time with my baby or is it normal? Or am I being over the top? Does anyone leave their babies with the mil? Or thjnk it’s okay or weird and why do you find it weird or ok? 🙈

Partner taking new job
Hey everyone,
My partner is looking to accept a new job offer that’s likely to be 60h+ a week Monday-Friday.
We’re due our first baby soon and I’m concerned I’ll be left working full time (when baby turns 9m and goes to nursery) juggling nursery drop offs, pick ups, everything at home, bedtimes, mealtimes and our dog who due to his breed needs a lot of exercise.
Does anyone have any advice or success stories as I’m feeling a bit daunted!
