To think children steal your pretty ?

[CopperPot]

Just that, really!

I used to do my hair and make up and feel pretty good about how I looked. Now, after two children and no sleep for 3 years I look shit whatever I do

Will it ever come back?

You must do, Copperpot.

Your poor kids

I think I look better now after kids than before I had them.

Maybe I'm just a narcissist though, who knows?

I would love braces!

I was offered them by the orthodontist when i was 15 and i refused saying i would look hideous with them. Dsis was 14 at the time and she agreed to have them. She hated them but 2 years later and her teeth were and still are fucking gorgeous. The dentist told me i would regret it and christ was he ever right. I hate my teeth now. Wish i had taken the braces at the time when they were free!

Your in laws are a bunch of twats. I hope you don't take it to heart

Can you recognise sarcasm though?

Sorry that was to myinlaws

I think i look better now because i worry about the judgement at toddler groups and nursery pick ups [shame]
I used to be a right scruff

Exactly, it was sarcasm Myinlaws I'm really not offended by your username I was doing what you're doing to me - making my feelings about you.

Arf at 'abs of cake'

bastards you've had some really horrible experiences but please stop taking it out on people on this thread. We have done nothing to you and have no axe to grind.

No. My dd is exceptionally pretty and has an exceptionally pretty dd of her own. No theft there.

Copper, they might not have stolen your pretty, just hidden it somewhere. Have you looked behind the bed?

Yes I agree.

abs of cake and buns of brie.

inlaws i really think you sound very angry (rightfully so) but no-one here caused any of your pain. It isnt fair to keep throwing that at posters here as if we are all dicks for having a bit of a whinge and a laugh. We arent. Your pain and other people's lighthearted moans are not connected. Us not laughing wont make your pain any less. I am sorry, i can see you have so much going on.

While you didn't mock anyone you did imply we were bad mothers for having a lighthearted moan.

I agree with just

It was extremely offensive, bastards.

I hear ya. Takes time to look good and I have no time. I look shit frequently, I've put on weight that's hard to shift and I can't remember the last time my hair looked nice. I think the BF misses the pre kid version of me.
