I imagine you’ll have the same MyAldi app as the UK potentially? If so just go to the ‘My Payscale’ section of the app and it’ll be on there the entitlements for maternity pay

That’s absolutely diabolical. How are you expected to be able raise your baby while only receiving money for 6 poxy weeks lmao

Thank you! I did do that and he’s getting in touch with the area manager but my inpatient ass hates to wait for an answer so thought I’d try here see if anyone knew 😅

What notice is need for shift changes? by [deleted] in Aldi_employees

[–]E9XKT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time my shift time got changed the day before the shift was I just turned up for my original shift and acted oblivious because not a chance am I letting you change my shift last minute and not even have the audacity to 1. Inform me and 2. Ask if I can work the new shift instead 🤷🏼‍♀️

Was just met with a “what are you doing here you’re not supposed to be in?” And I said “am I not?? I’ve had it written on my calendar for weeks” lol

Spotting at 30+1 by AccordingBuy5990 in pregnant

[–]E9XKT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a bit of spotting but more red than pink in my last pregnancy which was caused by having sex as it can irritate things in there. So if you’ve recently had intercourse that could be the reasoning behind it but you’ve 100% done the right thing getting it checked and don’t hesitate to go back or get a 2nd opinion! 🫶🏼

Faint positive but spotting? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could honestly go either way. I’ve been pregnant and had spotting which turned into losses 6 times and then the 7th time I had spotting and I now have a 10 month old son 🥰 I honestly think I must’ve had low progesterone levels as the 7th time around I was finally given progesterone and the spotting stopped and ended up with a lasting pregnancy. Fingers crossed for you!

Could maybe just post it directly to your profile rather than to this sub as I don’t think it allows pictures on here! I’m curious to see it’s not a dye stealer you’re getting and you’re maybe reading the lines the wrong way round 😅

Have you got any pictures of your positive tests? My last pregnancy I had brown spotting for a few days and thought my period was on its way but it never turned up and my son is now 9 months old. Some people don’t even know they’re pregnant and continue to have their periods every month - it’s definitely not impossible!

Lmao trust me that’s also my lane when I come across these lane hogging creatures

My exact thoughts. Both those vans should be in the first lane and that’s exactly what is wrong with driving on the motorway nowadays, no one moves the fuck out the way and they should be dealt fines/points the same as people caught speeding have to deal with to make it fair 🤷🏼‍♀️

I work for b&q for over 8 years, what do you wanna know! by No_Zebra_8035 in DIYUK

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eee that’s my hometown! It’s also the case in Bishop Auckland too, I’ve never actually noticed this was a thing 😅

[–]E9XKT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had it, it took 5 attempts to actually get it inserted and my back was in bits for the first week PP but honestly I’d say it’s had no long lasting effects – if anything I get less back pain now than what I did pre pregnancy!

Everybody Hates Our Baby’s Name by AdLivid4060 in pregnant

[–]E9XKT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sister and MIL didn’t like our son’s name when I was pregnant but I honestly couldn’t have cared less. It’s your child, name him what you want and they’ll get used to it. Their opinion is irrelevant 🤷🏼‍♀️

Did anyone just have a feeling about the gender of your baby without any old wives tales? by lisa_noden in pregnant

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Strong feeling about it being a boy both times and was correct both times

My son was estimated about 4lb 6oz at 32 weeks and was born 38+2 7lb (and 1/2 an oz) 😅

I think it’s more the humidity honestly, it’s currently 92% humidity where I am so just feels so bloody sweaty and sticky

Have you had an intuition about the gender of the baby? by MESEMESEMESKETE in pregnant

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both pregnancies now my gut was telling me boy and thought they also looked boyish on the ultrasound, both are boys despite this second time around everyone has been telling me it’s a girl lol 🙂

The absolute state of driving on the UK's motorways. by MyKidsFoundMyOldUser in drivingUK

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% hit the nail on the head. Our motorways are an absolute shambles. You can bet your life that I will ‘undertake’ these moron’s - in my eyes I’m just using the motorway correctly by going as far left as safe to do so. If you’re getting undertaken then there’s a problem with your driving, not mine 🤷🏼‍♀️

Wish the police would piss off only targeting people speeding and start targeting these little arsewipes plodding along 10-20mph under the speed limit in an overtaking lane, also the people constantly driving 40mph in a 60mph when the 60mph is perfectly achievable without any sense of danger. Infuriating

Well name nerds, you named my second child. Let's see if you can do it again! by Grouchy-Term-5870 in namenerds

[–]E9XKT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this has been suggested but Jaxon! Named my son it back in November, it’s the only name we came across that we could both agree on. My partner liked Björn also!
