IN AT THE DEEP END

I got pregnant when I was 90 days clean and had my son when I was just over one year.  It was a shock to suddenly find I couldn’t get to meetings every day.

At first I took him with me, but as he got older and louder I felt less and less comfortable bringing my son to meetings.  I felt isolated a lot of the time.

Finding out that there were two meetings with crèches, although they are both quite a long way from my house, really helped me.  Although I can sometimes afford a babysitter, knowing that I can get to two meetings every week has been invaluable.
