So, I’ve been back in full time work since May, almost 6 months! I can’t say I’m enjoying being away from Edward so much during the day but I can honestly say I am enjoying the extra time for myself. Brett has been a brilliant stay at home Dad, although he’s not mastered washing the nappies yet lol! I hope they’re enjoying some father – son bonding, and in my imagination I can see them doing all kinds of things like messy play and reading but the reality is that Edward is speed crawling around the kitchen without his nappy, giggling his head off and Brett’s running after him with a nappy because he’ll more than likely wee on the floor.
Edward loves nappy off time, which I’m starting to realise will help us when potty training. I personally think he’s still a long way off it but we’ve had the potty around so he gets used to seeing it. I’ve occasionally sat him on it and done the mummy thing "Are you doing a wee wee?" we’ve had one incident where he has done a wee on the potty, which I’m sure he didn’t realise he’d done but it still got a round of applause! Yes folks, parenthood is that glamorous!
Does this mark the end of my nappy journey? I really hope not! I’m sure we’ve got a good long while before we see the back of my beloved nappies and I have something to console me………reusable training pants!!
