Cleaning tips
Keep your family safe from germs and bacteria
You have a baby - do you still have a life?
Single, selfish and indulgent, Bridget Jones isn't the epitome of a natural mother. But does being a mother mean you should sacrifice yourself completely anyway?

Try Fiona Gibson’s quiz to find out if your child still leaves room for you.


Tick the answers which most closely apply.

1. How often do you and your partner wangle a night out?
  Every week or so – otherwise we're crawling up the walls
  Night out? Come again?
  Every month or two – it's a rare occurrence these days
 
2. A close friend or family member is babysitting. Which of the following matches your mood?
  Guilty – as if you're deserting ship
  Elated. You leg it out of the door, whooping
  Fretful (you leave detailed instructions to cover every eventuality)
 
3. You desperately need a haircut or, pretty soon, you'll be bashing into parking meters. Do you…
  Allow a 'friend' to hack your hair at home while your child chomps at your ankles?
  Take your child and a pocketful of chocolately bribes?
  Demand to go to the hairdressers - alone?
 
4. It's bedtime. Your child mistakenly believes it is bounce-on-the-sofa time. Do you…
  Shoo him up to bed, sergeant major style?
  Nothing; it's accepted that nipper retires when he wants?
  Wearily drag out a jigsaw to calm him down?
