Wrote a long post and just removed it as too woe is me when actually most days I feel very lucky and positive. Two days from due date

Today I am just struggling and burst into tears when toddler asked for a very energetic and imaginative game that she wants to play 24/7 if we are inside (normally we're outside for at least four or five hours but had to wait in for a delivery and now trying to find a slot for a playground nearby as just found the one we normally go to is closed) I told her I'd hurt my foot so she didn't think it was my fault! I feel guilty even writing this as she's trying to get my attention and doesn't really watch tv at the moment

It's not like me at all, I'm very lucky and feel very happy normally but right now feel so frustrated and emotional

Didn't think it was her fault

Aw love, it will just be hormones.

My sons 4 so older than your wee one which makes it easier for me but this might work for a little game for yours too.

Could she be the doctor and look after your sore foot? Give her a toilet roll and ask her to bandage your foot up, she can also give you some medicine (water on a spoon).

Will kill a little time and you can lie down while she does it.

Are you 39 with no 2 at the moment? 😊

Definitely hormones, until today I've kept trivial things in perspective and been really grateful for the more important things but today I do suddenly really miss playgroups, libraries, even seeing friends and family inside, things that involve a bit of sitting and a bit less walking, climbing, lifting and mud!

I got very emotional, sort of PMS style emotional, in the few days before I went into labour each time. Maybe you're on the brink?

@GrannySmithorPinkLady yes, I'm a few days from my due date.

I know, it would be nice to have the option of a few things to go to. Its going to be a long winter!

Congrats! Hopefully not too long a wait for either of us!

We made it out! It's absolutely pelting with rain now but in a car park at alternative playground waiting for DD to finish her snack before we brave it. But, loos shut, help! They are shut at our usual ones too but there's an area of woods we can walk to that is secluded enough for emergencies. Already feeling baby bouncing on bladder 😩 but feeling much better to be out

@unmarkedbythat maybe... fingers crossed... I remember feeling quite calm last time but had just started mat leave and no DC yet so was a free agent and just relaxed and cleaned!
