I only have an 8 month old but I go for walks or go shopping.

I used to go to a bf group but didn't really enjoy it so stopped going.

I did put an advert onto netmums to meet up with people in my area and now i'm really good friends with one of them and we meet every week and go to soft play or just for hot chocolate and cake. So you don't have to go to groups.

Do you know any of the Mum's who also have toddlers at nursery?

Thanks hun.

I don't know any of the mums from nursery, although there is an open afternoon there in a couple of weeks so hopefully will meet some there.

Part of me knows that aat some point I'll go back to work and if I go back full time then probably won't be able to carry on meeting with them.

Forgot to say congratulations on your new arrival. xx

Get yourself down to the nursery open day and see if there is anyone there to go to coffee with. You might find someone in the same situation as you.

i only have dex, but i take him to groups and to rhyme time at the library. there are always babies, but there are also kids 2,3,4 years old. make yourself go to them cause tomos will probs just do his own thing at the groups and play with children while you can chat to other mums. everyone will want to have a wee look at your newborn so you will deffo have women come and chat to you plus it will tire tomos out!

My eldest is very demanding as well and I find days with the 2 of them very hard, but we still get plenty of laughs all round.

Rhyme time/bookbug sessions at the library is a great idea - its the only thing I have tried with both of them. Basically my baby just feeds the whole time and my eldest sits on my knee or just beside me and we sing along together.

I only have the one baby and we get out and about most days. We go to a group at a church nearby which is music based and they also do a little puppet show for the babies/toddlers followed by playtime to allow the mums to have a cuppa!
When were not at a group, we go out for walks, go to the park, visit family, go swimming etc. I've returned to work part time now though, so we really make the most of it on my days off xx
