On the subject of “mummy days” or “mummy weeks” (catching up). I do wonder how things work when the nanny is there. Do you reckon she’s not as home when the nanny is there or visa versa? I couldn’t imagine being at home working whilst a nanny was in my house with my child - it also comes across with the mummy day term that she literally wouldn’t have anything to do with the child on “non mummy” days - if you were in the house whilst the nanny was there a child or that age wouldn’t understand that you were working and couldn’t be ”disturbed”. I will be interested to see what happens as Pearl gets a bit older, surely nursery would be better so she could mix with other children more unless the nanny constantly takes her to groups/ paid lessons? She’s making a rod for her own back with how much she has the dummy too. I took mine off my twins just after their 2nd birthday as they started wanting them constantly and I know the damage it does to teeth, speech etc.
sorry that’s turned into a right essay!

FFS. She has it a lot easier than most! Being able to pick and choose when and if she works, shes just too used to the god damn nanny! Mum life is constantly juggling stuff most of us manage it....Why on earth don’t they do things as family?! IT BOGGLES MY MIND! Why did you have children if you both need so much time away from them that you need to take turns?!
Also her story today about realising she doesn’t need to do it all give me a break
