To ask you what your hobby/interests is/are?

[Chocoholism]

My DP thinks I'm boring and need a hobby (just what I need to hear when I got a young baby to look after) what he means is that in general I've lost all interests. Trying to think what I like but my brain has turned to mush. What are your hobbies etc and maybe I will be inspired :)

Ours are seperate (baby here too)

I swim a few times per week. Dh is into running and fishing & boating.

I usually take the baby to meet him at the lakeside with a flask of tea.

Together we love local theatre ( need a babysitter)

Tell your partner to be more supportive and not be such an arse.

Boring! , is he being serious, really?

I enjoy reading, walking and surfing the internet.

I'm 46 and boring, love it!

I took up knitting and crochet when son was 3 months and husband was working away. I've got really into crochet but it's hard work to do with son around as he just wants to get everything!

I love reading, cooking, gardening, walking....might not exactly be in the same league as abseiling in New Zealand, etc. but finances are tight and I'll use my free time to be as boring as I like!

I love walking: with dogs, ds on bike or scooter - any walking! I do a couple of gym classes a week as well. Together as a family we like to go to the cinema and out for meals in town and we walk together as well. I think it's good to get out the house.

I like photography, reading, gardening, making jewellery. But, it's totally normal to temporarily abandon all hobbies with a young baby, particularly if you're not sleeping! Maybe take up a hobby of getting long luxurious massages while your DP watches the baby.

Knitting, crochet, sewing. Reading. Taekwondo and various other forms of exercise, all geared to improving my Tkd. Face painting was a hobby and is now my business. I am never bored though suspect I am extremely boring!

But!!! When the children were very small I did knitting and crochet. And that was pretty much it. I was sleep deprived and hanging on by a thread! Any free time I had, I slept. Unless I was somewhere - like a play group - where sleep was not an option. And then I did mindlessly easy knitting and hankered after sleep. I was not boring - I was bloody exhausted!

I started researching my family tree when DD was a baby as I could do most of it online at home.

horse riding, running, reading and Doctor Who

how old is the baby? my second is nearly 8 months and hobbies are now sewing, crafting colouring and reading. and building websites for money and keeping up to date with work stuff in the media.
before that they were mainly mums netting and playing candy crush. its hard with a little one!! and its not about sleep deprivation as it happened with both and dd1 slept like a dream from the outset.

we are at a wedding today and I have also for the first time straightened my hair and painted my toenails. ive not been a totally scruffbag - but mostly!

also I've manages

I cross stitch, knit (though have never get beyond a scarf so we are never short of scarves here!) and do card making. I love my hobbies as I always have something to show for my time and effort. Card making is a useful hobby as I never need to buy expensive cards, and all the cards I give are unique and personalised. Though be warned it can end up costing a lot... especially if you get in to all the embossing tools (heat embossing with all those gorgeous powders... and embossing boards and pens, oh and the embossing machines with the little embossing folders...) the die-cut machines (Cricuit you evil temptress and your darling cartridges.) and stamping. But it is only as expensive as you let it be. (I dread to think what I have spent in the last 5 years but I would guess well over £1000 )
Cross stitch I love as I can do it whilst I watch TV, though I have a lot of UFO's (unfinished objects!) as I get bored after a few days and want to do a new / different kit. Cross stitch can be quite a cheap hobby, if you buy kits from Ebay, you can get some good kits for under £5.
The best bit is you can do all these sorts of hobbies when the DC are sleeping as they are quiet and portable to some extent.

Horses. Dogs. Jewellery making. Gym. Gardening. Anything that gets me out. When I'm not bed ridden

I love walking with music, reading, playing my Nintendo 3ds, and writing poetry and stories. Though my friend reckons the creative writing is a weird thing for an adult to do.

Photography, creative cooking, wine and mead making, online DJing here. Also an unhealthy online games obsession :)

Silver Smithing
Pottery (just bough my on wheel!)
Painting
Perfume Making
Candle Making
Going to the movies
Motorbikes
er... Sleeping

Reading something spooky (like HP Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, MR James), swimming, Lego (I know, I know).

Your new hobby should be telling your DH to STFU! Honestly, don't feel bad - there are plenty of things we all do which don't appear to be 'legitimate' interests to those who have 'proper' hobbies.

I swim, crochet, and occasionally go out walking. The walking is difficult though because neither of the dds want to come with me, and dd2 is only 4 so can't walk a long way anyway.

Running and fitness

Nutrition

Hiking/climbing mountains.

Geocaching

I often worry about this as I think other people tend to have much more interested hobbies than me! But I do like baking, I like reading- used to be novels but now is a lot of child development/ family stuff (my DS is one!)
And basically I like doing family stuff- walking the dog and 'discovering the world' now that we have a son.
I think you / your DH need to chill- babies are tiring- who has time for proper hobbies?!

My dog, drawing, internetting, sewing by hand, reading and pen palling.
The dog isn't a hobby, more of an obsession/devotion.
Pen palling takes up quite a lot of time, I have about 14 and am constantly looking out for stuff to send them and decorating my letters. One of them is a definite best friend, despite having never met, or spoken to each other in person, she's been more supportive than any of my real life friends and is so funny and brilliant.

I have quite a few hobbies. I have 2 allotments, research the family tree (good because it's online so I can do that from home) I belong to a pig club and do voluntary work locally.

However, my dc are 10 and 7, when they were babies hobbies didn't get even the smallest look in.

(Yeah, I don't have children. From all I've seen/heard about parenting, the early years are just about survival and trying to keep you sanity and relationship intact. Hobbies+babies?!)

I dont have any hobbies or interests.

I would like to have a hobby or do interesting things but most of the time i just cant be bothered
