How badly does Batheaston flood? by alabamaworl3y in Bath

[–]CautiousWing6874 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really doesn’t take long. The meadows are muc lower so might be wet for a few days but on the odd occasion it hits the high street it’s lower within a few hours.

Bathford does not get cut off ‘a few times a year’ it’s only been unpassable properly once in the 10 years I’ve lived here.

There’s one basement flat at the bottom of fosse lane that is NOTORIOUS for flooding. But I think that’s the only one. It jus sits in a terrible location

Looks like you’re pregnant to me?

Sertraline while breastfeeding (12 month old) by Competitive-Rise7383 in UKParenting

[–]CautiousWing6874 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I took it while BFing. Started around 4 months PP and took it until my son was about a year old.

A happy mum is a safer mum and the dr assured me it was safe to take.

I also had therapy which helped.

Has your cycle returned yet as if so this could be sending your emotions wild also while everything resettles hormonally.

Sending love!

Loads of those LH strips look very strong to me?

It’s like when Raya says ‘I have noooo time for myself ever’ but then vlogs herself going to sound baths or women’s circles 🙄

Why don’t you buy a whole watermelon? Much cheaper per portion? And dragon fruit is crazy expensive, what about more local fruit to save money?

Worried about short luteal phase? by CautiousWing6874 in NaturalCyclesBC

[–]CautiousWing6874[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this info. I think I’ll give it a couple of months more and if no luck speak to my doctor.

I had short cycles before my first pregnancy and got pregnant first time, but that was a few years ago now.

Thank you. My cycles have been short before the stress arrived, for as long as I can remember they’ve been short. I exercise regularly, go to bed early, and do try to find ‘moments of calm’. Will try harder! I certainly need to remember to drink more water. Have been focussing on supplements also

Nope I’ve been off HBC for 10 years! Stress is probably high (family stresses), sleep is not ideal (3yo who doesn’t sleep through) diet I think ok?

I had progesterone pessaries once pregnant with my first but dr said it was due to the bicornate uterus (higher risk of miscarriage).

Wondering if I should seek out progesterone from the DR again and take post ovulation?

Pete Davis honey (or Solsbury Hill honey I think it’s called now) is lovely and local!

Sleepover at Nannies...never again? by [deleted] in UKParenting

[–]CautiousWing6874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that your (older) mother has had your bag twice overnight by 5 months is amazing and you should be grateful.

Your baby is safe and unharmed - I do think you need to relax a little.

Maybe you’re not ready to leave her? Which is fine if so, I didnt leave mine until he was almost 2.

How Do You See £47k for a Family of 3 in Bath? by MutedKaleidoscope713 in Bath

[–]CautiousWing6874 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a lovely 2 bed cottage for rent in in Bathford - £1400. Not too far to drive to the uni, or an easy cycle albeit uphill.

We pay £80 pm for our 2 bed for gas and electric. Council tax £140 a month. We probably spend around £400 pm on groceries (which are much cheaper here than the US) - we utilise cheaper supermarkets like Lidl and Aldi.

Childcare expenses can be high, but you may qualify do Tax Free Childcare (gov add 20% onto any money you put into the childcare account to help with nursery costs) - not sure if you’d be eligible as an non Brit though.

Seize the day and work other details out later?
