I sort of had that with swimming. Wanted to organise going to mother groups as well, but am so constantly snowed under at the moment that losing a few hours would only create more stress than it solved.

We went to the breastfeeding mums group a couple of times, but once Sharon went back to work I didn't feel entirely comfortable being the only adult male going to breastfeeding mums. I don't think they would have had a problem, but I would have felt somewhat awkward, even though Lex's bottle would have been filled with breast milk.

My sanity is coping fairly well. Yesterday was hellish, but I'd actually had a solid sleep the night before, so did fine. Be interesting to see how I go today.
