How are all you new mummies doing?

[Toria111]

Morning all. Glad you're all getting on well - sorry to hear about your hubby bex!

My oh goes back to work on Monday and I'm absolutely dreading it. I had a Caesarian so can't drive for another three weeks and we're in a first floor flat and I'm not meant to lift much so I don't think I'll be able to get the buggy downstairs a without help.. I really don't want to be stuck in the flat cos I'll go cuckoo! How did you all cope when your partner went back to work? X

How are you feeling after the section? I saw my GP after 2 weeks and 1 day and he said I could drive again.

Hayley is away to my brothers house as she's going to stay with him, his mrs and her daughter. So Hayley gets time with her favourite auntie, uncle and big cousin! Me and OH are going to see Mrs Browns Boys D'movie!

Ended up changing my booking to an earlier showing as we're both tired already lol. Going to sneak vodka & juice in with us, like the good ole days when we were younger haha!

 

[Mummybexee]

Not going out now 3 unsuccessful days of trying to find something to wear that doesn't make me look like a sac of sh*t

Hubby can hardly lift Oscar from his cot aswell! X

 

[T84]

Aw no way Bex can oh's mum maybe come help? I'm sure you have thought of all alternatives. Gutted for you!

Have fun tonight kaedin, enjoy the vodka!

Me and S are going for a wee ladies dinner to pizza express (get to eat my fav goats cheese pizza!) with my friend who is home from Vietnam for 3 weeks yay!!

 

[T84]

Hi michell! Glad you got a good sleep. Smiles are the best

Cherry try not to worry too much, you will get into your own wee routine better. My house is waaaay tidier when hubby isn't there too! hopefully the next 3 weeks go quick for you x x

She's in London

But it's mainly my clothing causing problems - I feel so fat and frumpy - everything I've tried on looks horrible just knocked my confidence to be honest ... I'm quite a character / confident person - but sice having Oscar I sometimes feel so vulnerable ! :/

 

[Natalilly1288]

I'm exactly the same bex I used to have loads of confidence and was life n soul now I really don't feel like myself anymore

 

[Natalilly1288]

I've just got no confidence to speak to new people and I'm always worrying about upsetting people and what ppl think of me! I've never done that ever!
Been to slimming world this morning need to loose 3 stone 6 lb to get to my lightest weight I was 3 years ago I feel disgusted in myself xxx

 

[Mummybexee]

I should join to be honest - I may look Into a local class

I'm not worried about upsetting people - just don't feel like I could talk to a bunch if strangers like I could 2 years ago .... I don't even like going to shops or shopping without Oscar because I feel like he proves I'm a mum which kind of makes me feel abit better about looking like I do ? Like an excuse ?

 

[Natalilly1288]

I no exactly what u mean Hun today I kept telling everyone I'd just had a baby as I felt so ashamed all of my friends are so slim n now I'm bloody fat n my skin is still really bad just feel really shit about myself I never used to give two hoots what anyone else thought of me and I had so much confidence not anymore tho x

 

[Mummybexee]

Yea you should see my best mate! She's gorgeous ! And she tells me to shut up and stop being silly but if I posted a pic of her - you'd understand why I feel like such a frump ! She's had a son aswell but looks amazing! GAH

 

[dizzybaby]

Seems we all feel the same today! I feel horrendously fat today and just fed up, my stomach is so horrible with loose skin stretchmarks and fat! It's just horrible. I'm starting a 3 day trial of herbalife next week, not something I'd usually try but I'm just desperate to shed some of this weight

 

[dizzybaby]

I know what you mean about having the baby with you too, I hide behind the buggy all the time now

 

[Mummybexee]

Yeah that's how I feel! I hide behind the pram to cover my fat! x

 

[dizzybaby]

Me too I feel so vulnerable without it

 

[iWitch]

I've lost 15lbs in 5 weeks on herbalife & I'm eating loads! Only had one day I've felt really hungry

 

[mrs_b_x]

[Natalilly1288]

[Toria111]
