Natural Parenting MEET! 22nd October @ The Baby Show

[Dopeyjopey]

I am having SUCH a bad week... I really need this meet! I can't wait to meet you girls, it'll be so nice for my real life and internet life to mix! Rach_C is my only real life mummy friend and it's super lonely

Aww We moved to Stafford last year from Manchester which isnt that far away but I dont really know anyone here at all and it sucks Hoping going to some baby classes might help me meet some other mums but most of the time I just get looks cos I have tattoos etc and people tend to judge me before even speaking to me and finding out that actually im not that scary im just normal like them

I know what you mean about getting judge...either I get judge because of my skin colour...or my tattos..or my piercings...but I did take my piercings out before moving to the Uk as well changed my hair from pink highlights to a dark colour and have had less looks since then

its stupid if you ask me!

I get it too! At least our children will grow up to be unprejudiced

You know what realllly sucks? I caved in to society and conformed

When we had Rory, I had a mohawk and facial piercings. I was so uncomfortable at mummy and babygroups cos we live in such a yummymummy area... fast forward 2 years and when I fell preggo with K I grew out my hair and removed my piercings in an effort to not stand out as much

What I used to look like:

Whaaat wish you hadn't conformed!! Heaps yummy muumy! I get so bored seeing people look the same and I know I don't look the same, talk the same, or think the same and I don't care any longer!

I'm a tad hungover today as I went out and stayed out late last night. Then had a non sleeping baby. I fear I'm going to be a bit subdued today.

Like the old hawk Jetters! I'm afraid I toned down my look a long, long time ago. Partially it was that I got bored of dying my hair. Now I have a straight job where I couldn't get away with things.

[Callie-xoxox]

Me too..I got tired of colouring my hair..and it continued to fall out as well...so went ot a normal colour At the moment I only have bits of red added... However when I want something a bit more funky I do know how to add a bit of coloured extentions.

Thankfully did my make so I might be ok but only might lol

I'm not rock and roll at all haha I'm just a plain Jane Sarah lol

 

[Mynx]

I'm taking my camera too I'm really hoping that it's not too busy there otherwise it'll be a nightmare with buggies etc etc!! Fingers crossed lol!

Anyways, Evie's been up since 5.15am.. I wouldnt mind if she'd slept all night but she's been up and down like a flipping yoyo.. damned sleep regression I've just given her breakfast and we'll be tootling off to the station in about an hour. Might walk it to see if she'll have a nap on the way... *sigh* I'm knackered already
