Ok i started the thread before but then realised....there are dad's that come on here too!!! So let's start again: Hi I'm Jess from Rotherham, S.Yorkshire. I live with my partner, Jamie. We have a 13 week old son together called Ryan and Jamie has a 4year old son, Jack, from a previous relationship but we haven't seen him for 2 months (long story)

Hiya Jess, Don`t think anyone is ignoring you sweet. the truth probably is that, with respect to all, they`re all probably too old. I did say ` with respect`, and that includes me. I will say though,I remember the births of my two boys vividly, the excitement, the emotion,,,,the tears. Jess, I wish you all the very best for your future. Baz xx

I don't know if I count as a 'new Mum', I have a 2 3/4 yr old daughter and another one due in May, so we will be back to new baby routine come then. I am struggling with terrible two tantrums, but I don't want to put you off as you are a while away from that particular 'pleasure'. I think between 6-18 months was the most enjoyable phase so far- past the small baby stuff but not yet opinionated in the way 2 yr olds seem to be. Hopefully she will grow out of it just as the baby is born!!!

i understand what you are saying...sorry was going through a bit of a depressive stage...only messages i seem to post everywhere seem to get ignored. it's my own fault ive no confidence to go out there and actually meet people face to face. i do apologise and promise if this thread is wanted i will not delete it. as to the age of kids....it don't matter....any advice is grateful no matter what age your kids are....usually yous are the best to ask lol

Hello Jess, I am sorry I haven't seen your name before but as my babies are not new they take a bit of catching up with. We have had hair dyed with a tube of my lipstick (bright red - nursery asked if I had coloured her hair, she is 3 for goodness sake!) this week. She has an internal radar for lipstick. I had a thread on here asking how to get red lipstick out of blue carpet - cheap make up remover eventually did the trick but we will be replacing the carpet as she decided to put soap on the carpet to clean it herself. Then we had the pen on the sofa which I thought was black sewing thread until my husband started creating! And the blue felt tip on the wicker seat of the dining chair. I thought she was leaning over the chair pooing ( she is funny about it and asks for a nappy and hides her face - she is very frightened about the potty for that)! My son escaped through the playroom window (my brother had been decorating and had forgotten to lock it when he closed it) and went round to his friend's about five mins walk away. I would not have minded but it was eight o'clock on Saturday morning and his friend's father answered the door in amazement. He is six now but he first started doing this when he was just turned three. I long for the days when they were so young, and I spent all my time breastfeeding and rocking them. Life seems so easy then when I am on the run or lookout all the time now. Needless to say in those days I was just as exhausted but for different reasons! My husband and I fell into parenthood by accident but I have to say it was the best thing that fate could ever have thrown at me and I love each stage as it comes. Big at the moment is Angelina Ballerina and dancing. Being a secretary at her desk (she does a great travel agent but is horrendously expensive!) and being a waitress with a notepad. Talk to you soon and enjoy your little man - I love them especially much when their tummies are so full it pulls their eyelids shut!! Regards Abigail

Hi Abigail...if my mum had read your message she would've said it reminded her of me lol i was a little devil at that age! i fell into parenthood by accident too. Ryan was deffo not planned! i'd just started a fab job (which i miss so much). when i was being sick i thought it was cos of my nan dying (she was like a best friend to me). but having him has been the best thing that could happen too. he's my little miracle i keep saying... better go check he's ok Jess

I am not a new mom, but having my grand children down for a week reminded me of when mine were little, my grand son had a bad night the only night I had him in my room with me to give mom & dad a night off to go out and enjoy them selfs, no sleep zombi in the morning how I miss those nights...NOT, but just having time with them was worth it. :))))) Bev
