Don’t feel tied to the house all day! Suggest outings your baby will enjoy and your single friends will grudgingly tolerate.
Connect with other parents. They can relate to your struggles, give great advice, and won’t hold the fact that your child keeps biting their child against you.
Invite neighbors over to your house rather than out to a restaurant so you can enjoy their company without the hassle of escaping the myriad obligations of parenthood.
If you tip them a few extra bucks, most bartenders are more than willing to watch your kid while you hit the dance floor.
Remember that it doesn’t make you a bad parent to want a bit of free time to yourself. You’re only terrible if you act on that.
