You Time?
in Baby
Do any of you get 'me time'? I get it when i have a shower lol or you could count housework or quickly coming on here when lo is asleep!
But OH realised that he has never taken LO anywhere on his own before so hes gonna do that soon so im looking foward to a long bath and a read of a book
What do you do for me time?

Most of the time there are things that have to be done, or an Ollie or OH around to sort out...
that's one of the things we're sorting out these days - so i can get some me time and he looks after the lo's :lol

The main reason i havnt had much me time is because im bf and lo wont take a bottle so it limits what oh can do taking him out.
Now hes on solids though hes only on 2-3 bf a day so hopefully oh will take the reins for a bit. Hes a very busy man too, he goes on 2 hour bike rides every other day, plays squash a few times a week and goes for runs on the days he doesnt cycle and with work aswell it doesnt leave a lot of time plus hes adding college to the list but is redundant from May 10th so hopefully wel see him more then!

Can't complain too much, if I do want to go out of an evening OH happy to babysit, just so long as he gets a few hrs in the pub the following Friday night!!.He's going to start taking Archie swimming every Saturday morning so that i can get a wee while to myself.
Rainbowshoes, You should go to baby cinema. It's fab and most cinemas do a showing once a week. I've seen loads lately, OH is quite jealous ! S x
I'm sitting here now with Louise on my lap sleeping...
If i'm lucky i'll get 10/5 minutes in the bath before my dh brings in Louise!
if i want half an hour when im not someones mom or cleaner or cook or employee or walker (for the dog not some wierd kind of fetish lol!) i have to stay up until about 12 or 1 in the morning which is not good for my long term sanity when i need to get up at 6/6.30 to beat Harry up in the morning
When I get "me" time I mostly do hoursework :roll: Lily does go to bed at about 7pm so I guess I do have 3 hours or so then to myself before bed.
I don't get lie-ins unless Lily decides she'll snooze next to me for an hour or so. DH always seems more in need of a lie-in than me even though I do all the night feeds (
nah i feel like im behind all day if i dont get my shower and let the dog out before Harry wakes up ... he is very well loved and not beat up at all ha ha

Might have to try baby cinema is the sound quieter?

To be honest I was beginning to lose the plot so getting some me time was vital !!
