We started intros yesterday at last 2 gorgeous chatty boys.
Dh and I were very nervous and initially referred to each other as our forenames. The kids, who were clearly unsure what to call us, latched on to that. I feel annoyed with myself for not being more confident as I really wanted to be 'mummy' but I am hoping, and this where I need some advice/support, that they will call us m and d in due course.
Ideally we'd have a conversation about it but both boys (aged 4 and 7) were not ready to talk about future. They were friendly and chatty but very much in the now. Is this normal? It's only day one but I'm a bit of an analyser!
