How often do you go out socially without the dc?

[Earlybird]

Asking because I realise I have gradually drifted toward doing most social things with pals during the day.

Am considering setting up a regular 'sitter night' so I am motivated to go out a bit more, and have the logistical support to do so. Think it would be good for me, and also good for dd to realise that Mummy has a social life too (that consists of more than standing around chatting at b'day parties! )

I've been out 4 times since DD was born. She's still bf though. When she's a bit older I'd like to make it a little more often.

Just to clarify - I have gradually drifted toward doing most social things with pals during the day when dd is at school.

About once per fortnight we have a night out, about once every three months we have a weekend alone although usually at home. Once a year we go abroad for a long weekend. We are happy, the children are happy.

NEVEREVEREVER

We are soooo boring, and tv is our nightlife.

i go out with my best friend every week

with my DH once every 6 weeks or so

with other friends (girlie nights) about every 2 months or so

for a night away (hotel/wedding) once a year

for a weekend away...havent yet (DC's are 5 and 9)

As a couple - perhaps twice in two years???!!!!! Seperately - I do voluntary work twice a month and hubbie has history talks he attends and has his step bro over for lads weekends once a quarter...

Once in a blue moon!

Going out with DH (to the cinema & for dinner) for the first time in months. We have a 7 wk old DD, though, and I had a rough pregnancy, so it's been ages. before that we used to try to go out together once a month.

sorry, going out tonight

With DH on a date once a fortnight. With girlfriends, once a month.

i always go out socially without the dc's
