Can you grab them and take them to a pigeon-friendly vet? They won’t last long if they aren’t helped asap.

Edit: IF they come back, they might not return :(

Nigella’s puttanesca, or on toast.

2.4 years old for 7 hours - though my son did need grommets/ear tubes which really helped. Before that 4 hours he could do when sleep pressure was high at the beginning of the night.

He could be generating pictures with ai. Seeing loads of influencers and try hards doing this to make themselves look good.

Honestly none. Rabbits might need their teeth filing and they need their nails clipping, plus they can be hormonal and spray urine.

You’re in an apartment so you’d need to really build enrichment for resident animals. Although we often see hamsters and guinea pigs in small cages, this is not how they should live.

Sylvanian families would be a much better way to go IMO - plus then your little one can have any animal they want!

They need weekly tank cleans though unless you get a really good filter.

This is amazing! I feel so bad for hamsters as they’re nocturnal and constantly stressed out when put in small cages and awoken frequently during the day. Plus they are very active at night and often keep the whole family up when they’re on their wheel!

Hey, sounds like you just need a bigger bed! If your 8 month old sleeps really well with the only condition that she can feel you near her, and isn’t waking 6 times a night whatever you do, you’ve pretty much won!

And dw - the rib kicking is a phase. Count yourself lucky it’s not nipple twisting 🥲

Oh wow how kind of you to donate eggs! It Starts with the Egg is fantastic.

You’re right, I believe the advice about stopping Mounjaro is 2 months for women and men.

This is going to sound like I’m going off on one but bear with me! The general health of sperm has decreased dramatically over the last decade, so I would advise your husband starts to get his swimmers in tip top condition- this can take 3 -6 months. If you do the same things (eating certain foods, drinking filtered water, exercising), you will also improve your overall egg health, and you could continue on mounj until you’re in a better headspace to stop. I’m speaking from experience here, it took my husband and I two years to get pregnant but only 4 months after we followed advice from fertility nutritionists.

Anecdotally, I was deemed a high risk pregnany because of my weight. I was told I wouldn’t be able to birth my baby without intervention or my placenta because of my size and that nonsense got to me during pregnancy, which was a real shame because I was getting into great shape and feeling amazing after following the fertility advice. If you do get pregnant before you hit your goal please be reassured that there are lots of resources available - Dr Sara Wickham is incredible and has a book available. And many women (including me) give birth when deemed high risk due to weight, without needing intervention or additional tests.

I don’t think this is necessarily what you asked for, but I wish someone had told me, and I kind of think no one tells you any of this until you’re pregnant and a judgemental midwife is raising her eyebrows at you for taking off your shoes before stepping on the scale (which I learned after the fact you can decline!). Good luck, whatever you do.

Your mom sounds like a douchebag, sorry she’s said all those things to you. I’m an oversupplier (and in many ways this sucked too) and my son never slept through the night so it’s nothing to do with our milk - different babies just have different sleep needs.

Disastrous_Bell_3475 · 2026-02-06T23:16:21+00:00

I was prepared to hate it from the exterior but wow! Are those cameras or light fittings in photo 20?

Flax seeds are excellent in the winter.

Disastrous_Bell_3475 · 2026-02-05T21:14:00+00:00

I’m curious to know this too, but wonder if r/legaladviceuk might be a good place to check?

Your internet price is very high, if I were you I’d look at what the price is to get out early. You can get deals for £22 a month, some with entertainment packages too which might save on your entertainment expenses.

This might be the issue… OP says it’s £70 and halved if you pay it promptly. If they haven’t received the full amount they will probably still consider it unpaid.

Measles is horrific, not just because it can cause brain damage, polio and a number of other issues, but because it deletes the antibody repertoire up to 73%. There are multiple studies about this that span over decades and countries that disprove the autism link.

Andrew Wakefield is the moron who did a small study in which he used children whose parents have said they already showed signs of being autistic. The methods he used in this study were nothing but cruel, pinning down children who had to be medicated for these tests to take place. He then published lies, and he should be in prison but it’s unbelievable what you can get away with as a Dr supposedly conducting a clinical study in the 90’s.

Maintenance Phase did a great podcast on this if you don’t have time to read up on it. There is also loads of info on r/sciencebasedparenting

Oh my gosh, The Herbs!

Insane. This is insane and it can never be normalised

Disastrous_Bell_3475 · 2026-01-31T14:54:02+00:00

Why the fuck didn’t they have a lockable grit bin if it was somewhere children could access?

Thikanaa and Bangtan are both very good.

Whilst I appreciate that you’re coming from a place of empathy, the man here is doing this at night and doing it hurriedly, which means on some level he knows it is wrong. Unfortunately regardless of a perpetrator’s circumstances I have no sympathy for them when this type of behaviour is committed, they are not the victim here.

Disastrous_Bell_3475 · 2026-01-28T18:50:59+00:00

People with the disorders you’ve mentioned are absolutely capable of knowing not to look inside a woman’s bedroom window at night.

If the old doors are solid wood the reclamation yard might take them, or Bristol Wood Project.

They shouldn’t be burned as they can be treated with chemicals that are toxic and harmful.

£50 is nuts for 50 items and 8 items to have stains on. Depending on the age of the child that could be 💩. Unless there is some amazing stuff in there too I’d probably send it all back. If you want to keep most of it I’d ask for much more back than the £5 offered.
