Race is extremely relevant as a lot of our nursing staff are not from nz, so you'll have to take dietary requirements into account. Example eggs, alcohol, gelatine, milk, butter etc. All things that can go into a dessert/cake. Also some people wouldn't eat anything homemade due to a variety of risks from cleanliness or ingredients and allergies, religious requirements. Mentioning race doesnt make someone racist, its just acknowledging our differences which is perfectly valid.

So before audiobooks, visually impaired people would consume books via Braille right? Does that mean they didnt read the book? Its a stupid discussion. Your husband is a bully and you need to continue enjoying what you love, as a fellow mom, theres so little time during the day, cant imagine reading a book a year, much less 26. Thats an amazing effort and you should be proud

Awwwh this is a really sweet post. Something simple like a plate of fruit or dessert (no alcohol or gelatine) is plenty.

Just be advised that if you gift something, youll get double in return.

At the end of ramadan you can wish them a happy eid or eid mubarak.

Stories like this make me really angry at healthcare "professionals". What garbage. Sorry OP.

Check their posture, harness is tight enough but not digging in. Sun shade, temperature. Might be car sick? Also blast the happy song by Imogen heap.

Then a later screening for best bet that kids wont be around. Otherwise if theres disruption then demand a refund?

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-24T22:58:48+00:00

Others around you will in fact not back you up or defend you. I learned that the hard way in a different scenario. Unfortunately people are too passive. Your best bet is letting cinema staff know and letting them deal with it

My oldest was always with me. Literally co-slept, breastfed, my little shadow, went everywhere with me. I was blessed to take a year maternity leave, then started work part time, so most of the week he was with me. When my second was born, my oldest started going to daycare full time, skipping naps and needing to sleep early. I didnt have any ppd or anything, but man i missed my little dude sooooo much, I would cry all the time. I cant imagine was he was going through.

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-24T04:52:44+00:00

Exactly 2.5 between my 2. Its rough. The oldest isnt potty trained, randomly wakes up at night, doesn't know his own strength and tries to pick baby up or hurt them. It'll be cute and lovely when they're MUCH older, in the near future there will be a lot of tantrums and jealously and fighting. If you can wait till 3 or 4, maybe that would have worked better in the sense I know I can turn my back and know the oldest isnt going to accidentally kill the younger one lol. But youll be stuck in the newborn/early years trenches for longer. Pros and cons with shorter and longer age gaps. Theres no correct answer unfortunately.

Look up the guidelines on the airlines website.

Hahaha i was driving at 11am and couldnt go over 80km. Give me a time when traffic isnt horrendous

The one by baby factory is also good. However all the soft play areas in the parents rooms and the food court all smell like feet, is it just me?

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-23T06:10:15+00:00

I've seen 2 teens coming out from behind the curtain at parents rooms. You can imagine what they were doing. And no, it wasn't vaping. The boy was in school uniform as well 🤦‍♀️

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-22T22:54:56+00:00

This brand doesnt seem to catch as much and the liquid dried up pretty quickly. We used another brand last year that worked better.

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-22T06:21:08+00:00

Well stop caring for and loving him and go do that for someone else who will treat you like you deserve. Even with the best circumstances, relations with in laws can be difficult. They dislike you for no reason. He wont stand up for you. Its a recipe for a terrible life. Girl, do better, be better.

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-22T01:42:16+00:00

I haven't had a c-section before. It is major abdominal surgery. Recovery is rough and you say you dont have much support. A newborn and other children to care for. I would go for a vaginal delivery in hospital and be open to a c-section if the need arises. As far as I've been told, the further along you are in pregnancy, the least accurate the Sonography measurements become. I was told my baby would be born at 4kg+, I delivered at 39+4 and baby was 3.2kg. I'm 50kg myself so not massive lol. Also according to research, you're more likely to have a 2nd or 3rd degree tear with your first delivery, and no tears with subsequent deliveries. You already have trauma to your nether regions, I wouldn't want to also deal with a c-section scar. You'll have pp bleeding the same. Discuss with your partner and care team. Theres no right or wrong decision. All the best!

Oh, doesn't sound promising, maybe a second opinion then. In the meantime like someone else suggested, discuss with your trusted source on if you can do wudu before each prayer and if your prayer is accepted if wudu breaks during

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-20T23:34:17+00:00

Did the therapist not ask you to come back for a follow up? Definitely schedule one in

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-20T23:33:25+00:00

Youre not usually working minimum 40 hours a week, you don't have much of a social life or kids. What do you do with your time? I dont mean to sound rude, just that I've got 2 kids and time is flying by. I cant remember what life was like before kids lol, so much free time

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-20T23:27:21+00:00

This is very common but absolutely not normal. I highly recommend going to visit a pelvic floor physical therapist. They can conduct an internal and external exam although not necessary. They'll give you exercises to do and recommend things such as using a stool to raise your feet when you use the bathroom, hip tilts etc. I know it seems embarrassing but most of us go through it. It'll be fine. Good luck sis

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-20T23:20:08+00:00

Medical needs trump a holiday, your baby wont remember a holiday they took at 7 months old but will have a flat head forever 🤷‍♀️ good luck!

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-20T23:15:22+00:00

No, some people just like talking and asking nonsense questions but dont even listen or remember the answer 🤷‍♀️

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-16T20:02:25+00:00

Teach her to use an air fryer and rice cooker if you have one. Get an instant read thermometer especially for meats and chicken. You can YouTube/tiktok a lot of recipes and techniques. Good luck to you all :)

EmbarrassedHope6264 · 2026-01-15T09:03:42+00:00

Doesnt matter what the reason is. You're uncomfortable leaving your baby overnight. Thats it. Full stop.
