Why do mums loose the desire to shop for ourselves

Pre children I used to shop for me at every given opportunity. I then had two children quite close together, Leo (now 4) and Grace now (3) and since finding out I was pregnant turned a shopping switch off in my brain. To this day I try shopping for me and come home with new tights for Grace, or a jumper for Leo??
Help me get my shopping bug back!
I have a very supportive husband, who sends me out to shop! and I have lost most of my baby weight, so I don not know what is stopping me

I sometimes find it hard to even justify spending money on my self now. And as a result have very little clothes.

but you've inspired me, in fact i might go shopping today Smile

I really wouldn't post all your real names on the internet

Yes agree with BooBooGlass (though gorgeous names - great choice) just use ds & dd to reference kids.

Anyway - I completely agree with you! It's so weird. I think nothing of shopping for kids (and even dh) but I have been wearing the same stuff for ages.

RIGHT! All mums shop today & report back later!
