blog post here

not sure if everyone will have seen this fab blog post :)

anyone fancy joining in here?

I'm 30, still bfing my 31 month old toddler and 38 weeks pg with DC2. I work part time as a research scientist (which is about 99% less exciting than it sounds :o) and have done since DS was 7 months old. I didn't plan to extended bfeed, it just sort of happened... but I love that extra cuddle in the morning with my boy, especially as he is growing up so fast now!

I'm already on there Grin I think it's a brilliant idea.

Kveta · 21/05/2012 11:49

:o

I would be, but don't want to share my photo, as I am currently MASSIVE with child and look like a michelin man :o (who, me, shallow?)

it's a lovely blog post.

I just sent a really old photo, I haven't got any recent solo ones of me. I've become really good at avoiding the camera or hiding behind a child Grin

I need to find one of me where I won't look like the swine amongst the pearls.
I think the answer to the question seems to be good looking ones! Grin

Brilliant blog Smile

I am quite heartened by the number of younger women in their early 20s on there.

i was definitely in the minority when I was that age

latrucha · 21/05/2012 12:00

Lovely pictures. I dont have one of me without a child in it or I would post too.

bronze · 21/05/2012 12:04

I've just looked and I don't either latrucha

latrucha · 21/05/2012 12:05

Saddos us Grin

bronze · 21/05/2012 12:10

i don't like having my picture taken anyway and with four children the odds of one being around it pretty high. If someone else is holding the camera then chances are I'm small child fending. Running marathons pff Grin

Kveta · 21/05/2012 12:13

I don't have any recent pictures of me anyway. may see if I have an old poncey one from graduation, as that's probably the last time I was pictured alone! but I was pg at the time...

Actually I've just cropped a child out of one. Think I'll send it.

latrucha · 21/05/2012 12:14

Nice photo Eaurouge Wink Good comment too.

startail · 21/05/2012 12:20

Brilliant, don't think I could post a picture because DD2 would explode.
She's not mad on me talking about her antics on here.

bronze · 21/05/2012 12:22

Which one are you eau?

latrucha · 21/05/2012 13:42

You can work it out from what she says upthread, bronze.

bronze · 21/05/2012 14:48

Do you know what I reread the thread 3 times and still didn't click Blush
I am obviously one of those parents who give the others with brains a bad name

bronze · 21/05/2012 14:53

Actually no I still can't work it out. I can see the ops description but she doesnt say shes on there. Eau doesnt give a description?

bronze · 21/05/2012 14:53

Sorry she says shes not on there.

Thumbwitch · 21/05/2012 15:00

Fabulous blog! I'm not sending in a photo though, I'm pretty camera shy and not sure I have a half decent one to send.

hermionestranger · 21/05/2012 15:10

I've contributed and proudly so.

latrucha · 21/05/2012 15:52

Sorry. Got mixed up. It was OP.

EauRouge · 21/05/2012 17:21

It is quite easy to work out which one is me if you google my username.

metalelephant · 21/05/2012 19:38

My baby is far from toddlerhood so I don't belong to the blog (yet!) but just wanted to say what a lovely, lovely idea and fantastic women. Smile

latrucha · 21/05/2012 19:39

Your picture and comments are lovely too Wink
