Any Scottish mums wanna chat?

[Jen84]

Hi i'm 20 year old with two DS aged 17 months and 1 month so life is pretty hectic.
I'm from Fife but finding it impossible to find anyone else from here online!!!
I'd really like to make some new friends online as i don't have many friends my age, as none of them have children, so don't realise how all consuming they are!!!!
Due to this i get quite lonely and down at times.
so if anybody out there feels the same or just wants to chat...please do!

Aimsmum when is it - only problem no more shopping for me after christmas - not for another couple of months yet anyway then it will be all systems go.

Hey Jen 84. i know exactly how you feel. Im 20 and come from East Kilbride just down from glasgow. My DD is 8+months and slowly but surely all my mates dropped me through my pregnancy. wasnt out as much and no1 came over. Well we should be proud of what we have achieved for the fact that all the folks we used to talk to have gone but weve coped and have wonderful kids for it. My DP is the same as yours if its not cars its X Boxs games. I get a bit jealous when hes off out wi his mates getting drunk. feel a bit like a glorified baby sitter! I used to be gossip queen of my area but now i know nothing and therefor have nothing to talk about but baby stuff, which makes it harder to meet new mates aswell. Saying that i wouldnt change DD for the world. She keeps me going. Sorry ive rambleed its just refreshing knowing im not alone - there's others in the same boat.

Hi, I'm from Ayrshire. I have two kids. I am 23 and planning my wedding next year. If any mums of any age fancy online chats I'm usually online most lunchtimes when my little one is asleep. Yes I know I'm a young mommy but I love it!

Hey guys

I am also a young mum and I also love it! Am 23 and dd is 11months...

CherryEm, it is difficult to keep up with mates isn't it when they are partying and you are changing nappies!! It is all worthwhile though, I try to get out and about when my ExP has dd but it's not the same!

Kidstrack, congrats on ur wedding! I am happy to chat, not always online at lunchtime (money money money!)but my wee one sleeps then too so am sometimes... also some evenings!

Plus I don't really know what it means to 'CAT' someone but it seems to be what people say when they want yo chat... so feel free to CAT me!

Ah ha, it means contact another talker....

any Edinburgh Mummies?

I am mum to Emily 10 months and have just resigned from my job last week huzzah!

babawhorshipper - I am an Edinburgh mum! My dd is 11 months...

I am also unemployed at the moment! But going back to Uni in Oct...

How are you finding life as a mamma?

Cheers weesaidie, Its really good this site, just found it this morning. I'm a stay at home mom my son is 5 and my daughter is 21 months. Had my son when I was just 17 but coped well enough to have another. I just love kids any age any size. They grow up too fast. My husband to be works hard as a heating engineer, We have been together from school nearly ten years nxt year!

Kidstrack - sorry to take so long to reply, haven't been online recently!

I just discovered mumsnet a couple of weeks ago and not knowing any other mums it is very reassuring!

My wee girl is lovely mostly but at the moment she is v up and down with her sleep pattern. One day she wakes up at 8am, another at 6am then 6.45am! I don't mind getting up early I just never know how early it will be! V frustrating!

I try to get out as much as I can (just never with any other mummies!) and we have a lot of cinemas in Edinburgh that do carer and baby screenings in the morning so you can take the wee ones in with you! Fantastic.

Must be fun planning your wedding (so sweet u guys have been together so long!), I am helping with my cousins at the moment but she isn't getting married for two years so there isn't much to do!!

What do you get up to in Ayrshire?

Babaworshipper?

You still around?

If you are still off you should get yourself to the carer and baby screenings they have in Edinburgh... they are great!

weesaidie, would you mind telling me which cinemas do carer and baby screenings? Thanks!

(in Edinburgh that is!!)

No problem tassis, I am an expert, me and dd spend half the week at the cinema!

Okay, the Filmhouse do one every other Monday at 10.30am (think they had one this week)
the Odeon (Lothian Rd) do one on Tuesday also at 10.30 every week.
Ster Century every Wednesday at 11.30 and finally
the Cameo at 10.30 every Thursday.

I like the cameo best as it has a lovely relaxed atmosphere (plus free tea/coffee) but they are all good. Cameo has Napoleon Dynamite on tomorrow then Vanity Fair next week (sorry I have the programme right here!)...

If you come, look out for me I am small and look about 12 (oh okay 16 then) with the cutest dd ever ! Am often with a crazy blonde who has the great fortune of being being my sister!

Thanks weesaidie, so how does it work - are there todlers running around or just serene babes lying in their mother's arms?

Are English, Irish or any other ..ish mums being excluded?! (I'm kidding btw.. carry on.. sorry.. )

All sorts of wee ones, most are under a year but there are always some toddlers.

My dd is nearly one so is often crawling around the aisles! It is generally a little loud and hectic but you can still hear the film (mostly!) and people are v relaxed and friendly.

PS, it is two adults to one little 'un so you can bring a childless friend if any can take it!

Kidstrack. Hey i'm in the middle of organising my wedding for july this year. so bloody stressful! but im told thats normal, people refer to the bride as Bridezilla but I'm fine its the Bridesmaid Rexs that are causing all the havoc at my end! I'm only 20 so its dead scary but people are forgetting about me cos my MIL is so down on my SIL2B she is petrified of wearing a dress. i suppose its worth it tho...

Emily is a great name to call your DD mine is 81/2 months

Hiya,

Life as a mama is great! I am in trinity and there are tons of stuff to do round here, I just have probs getting off my ass and out the door on time for them, specially in the mornings

Forgot to mention I am an ancient 31.

I look quite normal really , and I was a business analyst before going the way of the baba so not a bark eating hippy (yet anyway) No offence to any bark eating hippies by the way, I am just not one of them!
