All because I was continuously having b...

Partners just been diagnosed with herpes. I’m prone to coldsores (on my mouth), not had an outbreak for a while. Had an ulcer in my mouth (not common for me) potentially did oral around this time.

Hey mamas!! I’m starting an iMessage mama text group!! Would anyone be interested in joining? :) can talk about kids, every day life and it’s a safe space to vent.

I personally will not. I’m not a fan of working really hard to give my children these gift for some imaginary guy to take credit for it. And I have personally experienced kids in school asking why Santa didn’t get them nice stuff or more gift but they friends got nice stuff/more gift.

Does anyone know of any mum-to-be groups/ meet-ups happening in Rugby? 😊

Trying to figure out why people don’t seem to like me when I feel like I’m a decent human being, I’m not rude, I smile to people, and I’m cordial 🤷‍♀️. I mind my business and I’m generally quiet-ish unless I’m really comfortable around you. Maybe that’s it I guess lol

I have been really feeling alone lately. I have 0 friends and I don’t have anyone to talk to. Most of my day I am just alone and it’s been getting to me lately.
