I understand the judgement regarding being a stay at home mum, I was a stay at home mum for 7 years. People constantly asked me when I was going back to work, being a mum is hard enough anyway. I only went back to work because we needed the money, I now work nights and hubby works days which is not the best as we hardly see eachother..... but needs must. X
Nothing wrong with staying at home bringing up your family , that priority, my daughter I am her carer and I have health conditions myself, people judge you no matter what xx Great vlog xx
I am firmly convinced that the ones with an 'attitude' about women being SAHMs are envious. Theh have it hard having to struggle with full time work, housework, looking after kids etc and That's why they see SAHM's as lazy, sitting watching tv all day etc. Also envious that financially they can afford to do it if THEY are struggling financially. I can understand they are envious, I guess I would have been too back in the day. I'm an old fart now and we didnt want children so I work full time till I retired at 55. Im a new subscriber and loving your channel. You are so natural, warm and lovely. Good luck with growing your channel. ❤
Enjoyed hearing your q and a Ria. I'm at home and I was able to give up work last year. My husband works from home weekday evenings so we get to enjoy our days together and I love it. Our house is paid off and financially we can do it so we want to make the most of every day. I've always loved domestic duties anyway. I do most of the indoor hubby outside but we help each other when needed. I no longer care if people judge me I'm happy and my husbands happy. Life's way too short to care what people think. I think it's great you might go back to work whatever makes you happy is all that matters 😊💗
I was a stay at home mum ( worked x2 hours a day) till my daughter was a teenager then went back full time , it was a case of needed the money but tbh I couldn’t be home all day now, I enjoy getting out to work and meeting people, it’s what suits your family though ❤
You're amazing, hard working person i know its hard work bringing up a family. Im exactly like you with my family getting older and moving out.love your vlog,you're beautiful. Xx❤
Aw really enjoyed this Ria ! Your such a natural as well. Thankyou so much for answering my questions, i share the same worry about the kids ! My son goes to secondary school in Sept and i am honestly in bits about it and the fact i wont really be doing school runs anymore 🙈 rediculus i know 😢 xxxx
Love listening to u Ria. U have a great outlook on life. Im a stay at home mam too. Sometimes i miss the company of work but definitely not the hassle. x
Completely relate to the whole thing about not feeling that instant rush of love for your child when they’re born. I thought I was the only one & felt guilty when I look back on it. With my first I did it naturally as with my second but with my first I didn’t feel anything towards her 😢, I think I was so in shock & number to the fact that I’d just given birth that none of it registered with me. I held her & stuff, then her dad held her, & then I just left for a shower like nothing had even happened, it was all very surreal. Made up for it though as the days & weeks went on because then I loved her like nothing else ❤, it was just all a shock in the first few days. She’s 10 now 😢 & my youngest is 5 & like you said it just goes way way too quick! 😢😢
Oh glad it’s not just me but like you say after the shock wears off you love them just the same you enjoy them sweetie like you say it goes to q wick thank you xx
Ria just watched your valantine video a bit late - on there you talk about your skin and the fact you don’t know what caused it to react - Do you think it was those tan drop things from Primark ?? Because it was just after that your skin reacted xxxx ❤ keep the great videos up - Amanda xxxx

So nice to know a bit more about your life and family. If some people want to judge you for staying at home that would be their problem. I admire you for doing what suits your family. Oh it made me 😂when your mark said your traumatic birth was easy 😮😂😂😂xx
This was fun theres 13 yrs between us and been together 25 yrs and me and my mum was pregnant at same time tberes 19 yrs between me and youngest brother and hes obviously same age my eldest xx
Hi ria I can relate to your birth stories I’ve got 2 girls too 1 is nearly 18 and the other is 15 I’ve been with my husband for 19 years .. my first child, the midwife was very harsh and was telling me off and it was a bad experience.. but with my second the midwife was soooo lovely so I do believe it makes all the difference.. fantastic as always… I always click asap soon as i see you have uploaded.. ❤
Omg im the same ria with psychiatry... Ted Bundy, Jack the Ripper, Ian Brady/Myra Hindley, have you seen Dahmer on netflix? Just.. WHY?!!! That is all that I want to understand. Enjoyed listening to your q&a definitely interesting Qs there.. the love between you and mark is truly amazing ❤❤ xx
That was so fun Ria. I laughed at your birth story with Mia when you said you could have punched your husband when he said that was easy wasn’t it 🤣 My births were all natural so totally understand your reaction. It was interesting to get to know you a little better and thank you for answering my question about your favourite song as a couple ❤️
I knew you said your brother was younger than you but I didn't realize the different the age difference between the two of you and your age difference between you and Mark is no big deal cuz my husband and I were almost 13 years since he was 13 years older than me
Oh really you would of thought it would be while you were younger I’m so sorry I didn’t realise your husband had died I’m so sorry for your loss hunny xxx
Why don't you do bar and waitressing part time as your girls are older?? I was a SAHM until my children went to senior school and took up a part time job as I wanted to be independent and earn my own money and it came in handy. Sometimes, you just need to socialise with other people and there's nothing better than earning your own money!
