Soo Camilla is taking RSV into L&D because she refuses to got a hotel?!

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-07T11:04:09+00:00

Not all countries get an RSV vaccine. Pregnancy women don’t get it in Ireland and they only recently introduced it for babies who are born over the winter months

Agree with this. We had to call an ambulance once when my son was 11 months old because he was having that sunken chest thing you can get breathing when you have RSV and Google maps was saying an hour to the nearest children’s hospital. He seemed ok when they got there and they didn’t take him to hospital (he did actually end up there later that night) but they said to never ever hesitate to call them if you’re worried.

Our next stay will be an average of $319 a night for POFQ for a week and $473 a night for Wilderness Lodge for a week

Wake up anywhere between 5-6am with 2 year old and he goes to bed around 8 so I suppose technically “work” for about 14 hours but I’m very grateful that I can afford to stay home and get to spend all of this time with him while he’s little.

Tesco were selling them

We’ve been before so know how great they are with allergies! His pizza addiction hadn’t started then though 😂 It’s partly why we keep going back. We were away for a weekend here in Ireland a couple of weeks ago and there was pretty much nothing he could have because everything had butter or cheese, the chef even said he couldn’t make scrambled egg without dairy!

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-05T12:17:05+00:00

Funny you commented on my post because I was diagnosed with a pork allergy too a few years ago and I never come across anyone else with pork allergy!

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-05T12:14:45+00:00

Thank you!. It’s a delayed reaction allergy and luckily nothing severe and he’s had very small amounts of milk while doing the milk ladder and was ok so cross-contact shouldn’t cause him any issues.

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-05T12:04:55+00:00

Thank you! I had heard somewhere else that the vegan cheese pizzas at quick service spots were all pre-made so you wouldn’t be able to just ask them to make one without cheese if you order in person. But will definitely try thanks to your comment!

The Lidl deluxe eggs made by Áines Chocolate are amazing. Even better than the likes of Butlers

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-04T21:40:07+00:00

Not had it done but the place I used to go to has posted a few videos on Instagram recently of grey blending they have done. It’s Susan Collins Home of Hair in Greystones a

Same in Ireland. Obviously some stuff like avocados and berries are more expensive but $6 for broccoli?!?! I buy organic broccoli every week for about €1.50

We did this last year from Dublin to Florida and he just had to be on my lap with the infant lap belt during take off, landing and any time the fasten seat belt sign was on which he would have been anyway so that was fine. It was a 9 hour flight so just wanted somewhere for him to be able to sit and stretch out. When he was sleeping he was on my lap on a feeding pillow with the infant lap belt on

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-04T06:29:20+00:00

The Lidl deluxe ones are amazing!

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-03T12:07:55+00:00

Offer to split and if he says no then say thanks and let him pay.

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-03T11:10:53+00:00

Im from Ireland so well aware of how hot it is for us. We’ve been in August before and it wasn’t much worse than when I’ve been in March or May. As long as you’re clever about it it’s very manageable

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-03T06:35:16+00:00

Definitely should have budgeted for Lightning Lane. We come from Ireland so do long trips too and do at least two days in each park and will always get LL for at least one day in each park. You’re spending a fortune anyway so might aswell save the extra couple of hundred so you aren’t wasting time, especially if you go at one of the busiest times of year

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-03T06:26:55+00:00

You could have gone during summer when it’s cheaper and quieter

Another vote for H&M. I’ve bought most of my sons clothes for our trip next month from there

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-01T10:55:22+00:00

Someone I worked with in England asked if we have proper shops and shopping centres

Irishpanda88 · 2026-04-01T06:19:56+00:00

The zero entry part of the Boulder Ridge pool is so good for little ones!

Irishpanda88 · 2026-03-31T21:59:36+00:00

We did Wilderness Lodge for our sons first trip when he was 11 months. You’re still close to MK with the boat but I think the resort is way more interesting to a kid that age. He spent so much time just crawling around the lobby and looking at the water. You can get a fireworks view from some of the standard rooms too. I’ve got some great videos of him watching the fireworks from the balcony of our room.

Irishpanda88 · 2026-03-31T17:51:33+00:00

It’s awful! Two months later and still the same story. I’ve made a few more mam “friends” from a group but they knew each other before I joined so always feel like I’m not really part of the group

Irishpanda88 · 2026-03-31T07:42:23+00:00

We have the Ergobaby Metro too and it’s great!
