I was exhausted yesterday. So I gave 2 month old baby to my husband who was also exhausted after coming home from work. We sleep in separate beds right now so that we can get some rest while the other watches baby. Well… somehow he kept her asleep for 10 hours. She’s never gone more than 3-4 hours without feeding....

I’m a SAHM to my 17 month old son, I’ve never left him with anyone but his dad for longer than 2 hours and it’s not a frequent occurrence.

I was not expecting this and need to return to work in April. I live in Burlington Ontario and have even applied outside of my town. Any ideas would be very app...

I say this because I tell him to keep the lights on and then he says it’s ok let’s switch it off… I want to be intimate so I go with his flow.

But a rocking horse takes so much space and the activity tables that I’ve found don’t excite me that much...
When did you start going to mother and baby classes? Or groups? Supermarkets? Coffee shops?
