Yup, the mum is a friend of mine, and yes I know how incestuous that sounds LOL :rotfl: :rotfl:

EVERY thread? Really...I'd check your facts love - there is 3 that I can certainly recall. If you choose to splash every single detail of your life on a forum then you can't control who answers or whine if you don't get the answer you want.

And no I'm not bitter (though how did I know THAT would get trotted out), merely have my priorities straight.

And for the poster who said 'it's just a coffee'...funny how feelings and 'where things may go' have been discussed already.

Looking forward to the next deluge of threads though;)

I'm in the go for it camp too emsy.

I too was once a single mummy of two gorgeous boys and had exactly the same worries as you I can remember my first date with my OH and I was absolutely terrified lol and as for the "first time" weeks later I shook like a leaf the whole time lol.

I hesitated for ages before I went on the first date I was a mummy and he wasn't a daddy I thought he would find my wobbly bits and scars/stretch marks repulsive but he loves me its a part of who I am he says (I had a tummy tuck last year so wobbly tummy is no more but the wobbles everywhere else are still going strong )

You may be a mummy but you're still a woman and to feel wanted is a lovely feeling so I totally know why you're grinning like an insane cheshire cat :rotfl: good luck with it honey

P.S The bloke I went on my first date with I'm marrying next november and b y then we will have been together almost three years every single day he treats me like a princess happy endings can and do happen

I'm with the minority too I'm afraid.

The baby is 3 weeks old, you've had nothing but trouble with the other relationship and now you're meeting a guy who you know, but have only caught up with in the last week.

If there was nothing in it apart from just friendship, surely he could come to your house to see you? You wouldn't have to go out to meet him and worry about what you look like?

I'd keep chatting to him online and see where it goes, but at the moment, your priority should be yourself and the baby. And the other nipper too of course.

i tend to agree.

I don't know the history with your ex but he is just that her ex so why should she wait? She has childcare sorted already (she already stated she sometimes has Nanny overnight). I just don't understand the mentality of some people, surely you all needed a few hours away from the kiddywinks to be you and not Mum? I know I did as much as I love them both I had a few hours out within a month of birth...the umbilical cord gets cut for a reason guys
