I feel like a really lousy mother.
I have this beautiful year old baby, he's what I live for, yet I have no idea what to do with him. We play with his toys but he gets bored with the same-old things, and I have no idea what to do next. We go out about once a day, to town or groups etc, but have no friends locally so when we are at home we are at home alone.
I don't want to go back to work, I would miss him terribly, but when we are meant to spend time together I have no idea what to do to entertain him. He hates me moving away from him, so doing housework and things are hard as he won't play by himself.
I want more children, but I'm worried I'm not even coping with this one. I'm worried his speech and development won't develop very well as I don't know if I am doing enough with him. Would it get easy with more than one? Would they help entertain each other?
I just don't know what to do
