Since I had the DC's (6 and 2) I seem unable to take as much pleasure in myself as I used to. Yet I have friends with DC's who are always uploading new pics of themselves on Facebook and doing things such as going away for a weekend without the kids...and buying loads of clothes...new and different hairstyles.
They're the same people as they were before DC's...they must have a bloody huge interest in themselves judging by the amount of pics they put up...always single portraits of them posing before they go out for the night...or them and their mates all done up...these are grown women of 35 plus.
I don't have the space in my head for that much interest in my looks or my own pleasure...how come they do? I have work and mates who I meet for the odd coffee/playdate or rare meal or drink out....but nothing approaching the mad nights these other mates have...so AIBU to be a bit confused and jealous?

AIBU?
To wish I could be a bit more self obsessed like some other Mums?
