    ...at the end of the month i'm going to visit a local nursery with Charlotte!

    I've only made an appointment at one so far as I'm still a bit nervous about the whole thing. I'm hoping to put her in for just 2 mornings a week to start off with - all we can afford really too.

    I'm feeling a lot better now and Charlotte and I have been getting on better too lol! I've bought her a toddle truck as when I went to see my hv on Tuesday she played with the one there as hv wanted to see how her walking was going. She's not quite 20lb yet but she had her height done - she actually stood alone against the wall Couldn't believe what I was seeing! She's now between the 9th & 25th for height whereas she was on the 75th nearly for length at 12 months. At least she's more in proportion now. HV said when doing length lieing down though they can get 'stretched' a bit! At toddler group yesterday she was standing a lot more & playing and walking round with push alongs with out my help - it was fab!

    Going to PIL's too for a few days tomorrow so will have a bit of a break then as Nana & Grandad will fuss over her. OH & I will also get a night out Can't wait!

    Well done! And well doen Charlotte for standing! I read your post the other day but didn't reply as I thought it'd all been said. I think feeling more independent as she gets better on her feet, and a bit of a breather for both of you will do you both the world of good. I really admire the job you're doing with her on your own all week - as much as I love being a full time mummy, I'm ready for the support when hubby gets home in an evening!

    Hope the visit goes well

    Yay well done you. I think 2 mornings a week will possibly be all you both need. You can spend some time doing what you want!

    Charlotte will love having some time out from you as well.

    Hope the visit goes well

    Oh I am so pleased to hear this!
    I read your post but didn't have time to reply.
    Basically I was you until a few weeks ago & now since going to work PT & having Ellie in nursery PT I am a different person & she is a joy to be around.
    Don't get me wrong she still has days where she whinges from am to pm but they are easier to deal with because I don't have to listen to them for half a day!

    I hope this works out for you & you start to feel better soon.
    Enjoy your night out xx
