On #IWD2023 I asked my 2.5 year old kid…
‘What does Daddy do at work?’
His reply ‘Paintings’ (Yes. He photographs paintings).
‘What does Mummy do at work?’
His reply ‘Cleaning up’ 🤣 – at Walthamstow, London
Somehow we’ve stumbled our way to four months old. It’s been hard which is why I’ve largely been lurking and liking with too little sleep to tweet much.
Today, with the sun out and baby sleeping without me pushing the pram (a revelation) things feel brighter.

We’re playing shops. Each item is fifteen pounds according to the little shopkeeper. You’re not wrong kid. – at Walthamstow, London
Baby sneezed. The kid ran off to his bedroom in an extreme reaction even by toddler standards. Then I hear ‘Help Mummy’. He was trying to reach tissues to wipe the baby’s nose. 💕 – at Walthamstow, London
6 hours of driving. 2 stops. Some tears and we are back in London after a longer than planned Christmas in the north. A return delayed by illness.
Now to unpack the bag mountain we crammed in the car ‘helped’ by the kid. – at Walthamstow, London
Realised I did not tweet once between Christmas and New Year.
My timeline reads like an old relative you only hear from on special occasions. – at Darlington, England
Happy New Year all! We saw out 2022 with a second Christmas trip to A&E with our poorly 12 week old. Wonderful paediatric team reassured us its a bad case of congestion and sniffles.
Let 2023 be the year both kids are well at the same time for more than a day. 🤞 – at Darlington, England
Merry Christmas everyone 🎄
Toddler has already nibbled a stock cube and baby is wholly unbothered by the festivities. – at Darlington, England
Daughter of and supporter of the nurses. #NursesPayRiseNow – at Walthamstow, London
A promising start 🤞 – at Walthamstow, London
Finally! We have dragged the government into almost the right place accepting that childcare should be seen as infrastructure and funded! It’s a start and grateful to those MPs who actually stood up to fight for investment for our kids and our economy! @PregnantScrewed
Been quiet. We are busy building our immune systems by catching ALL the lurgies.
Delirious empathy with anyone else who’s experienced throwing up all night then taken care of a baby all day. – at Walthamstow, London
Putting the tree up with an 8 week old and a 2 year old. Is it possible? Put the baby in a sling and sedate the toddler… – at Walthamstow, London
Thomas the tank engine advent calendar* went down a storm with the kid. Opening just one door not so popular.
*Grandparent gift. Obvs. – at Walthamstow, London
Slowly emerging back into society after our first bout of sibling illness. Lots of snot and little sleep.
Now what’s new in the world? Oh…same old… – at Walthamstow, London
Twitter may die but no matter. I’ve joined a local second time mums WhatsApp group and it meets my current social need - lively at 3am. – at Walthamstow, London
In other news baby had his 6 week check up today. GP asked ‘Is he sleeping through the night yet?’ A doctor and a stand-up comedian. – at Walthamstow, London
Stalled at 1/3 of #Museum30 It was always going to be a tall order with a new baby so I’m bowing out until next year. Love reading everyone else’s tweets though. 💕 – at Walthamstow, London
