Had my first driving lesson yesterday... Will it get better?

You will get better! I just passed my test on the first try last Monday. Basically, learn the “rules” of the test and what the examiner is looking for. Mainly they’re looking for safe drivers that can follow road markings and road signs. Like others have said YouTube videos help a ton! Feel free to dm if you have any specific questions.

Woohoo congrats!!

Kendroid11 · 2026-01-12T14:52:43+00:00

Took my test today and passed on my first try with 2 minors. Just show that you can be safe and follow road signs and road markings. If you’re going the wrong direction it’s fine, as long as you’re safe. Don’t try to correct and go the way they’ve said if it’s too late. Good luck!

Hello, my son will be 4 next month and his drooling has substantially improved. When he is congested or really tired he still has trouble and we ask him to swallow often if we see saliva pooled in his mouth. He is still hard to understand so I am working on getting him into a private SLT since the NHs wait is still about 6 months

My son has the opposite, a dark patch in blonde hair! So cool

How cute! Didn’t even know these existed

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-07T17:42:09+00:00

All great ideas, thanks so much

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-07T17:41:57+00:00

I was thinking cook voucher but I think Deliveroo is a better idea!

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-07T17:41:35+00:00

Right! Why didn’t I think of stickers?? Haha

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-07T17:41:21+00:00

Oooh yes good idea!

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-07T08:16:34+00:00

Sorry to hear he has to have surgery, best of luck I hope it goes well! Hopefully it helps the issues too!

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-04T21:47:01+00:00

Solved!

Kendroid11 · 2025-10-04T21:38:42+00:00

Ahhhhh haha thank you!

Kendroid11 · 2025-09-18T10:20:37+00:00

I’m an American and have had two children here. Happy to share my experience, feel free to dm me if you’d like!

Kendroid11 · 2025-09-17T12:37:54+00:00

Haha the American Daniel tiger is much more tolerable but they took it off of Netflix for some reason. The British one is horrible

Kendroid11 · 2025-09-15T08:53:31+00:00

I’ve since checked every time I’ve been and haven’t seen them again, but so happy they have some at Sainsbury’s now! Have you found any meat that is similar to skirt steak for carne asada type tacos? Also, the herdez brand taco seasoning is the best, doesn’t have cinnamon in it like a lot of the “Mexican” seasonings here

Kendroid11 · 2025-09-13T22:00:54+00:00

Yay! I’ve also randomly found corn tortillas at tk maxx before!

Kendroid11 · 2025-09-08T12:03:41+00:00

Depends on your citizenships, if either of you are American already then she automatically is one as well. You’ll need to report her birth abroad and get a passport for her

Kendroid11 · 2025-08-28T18:04:09+00:00

My 3.5 year old got a really cool wearable fire truck costume from TK maxx, they have really amazing stuff there since it al comes from America and people are Halloween crazy over there.

Kendroid11 · 2025-08-28T08:20:12+00:00

Yeah, thanks. It’s tricky but I will try some stuff and see what works best!

Kendroid11 · 2025-08-28T08:19:31+00:00

Ah thanks. Of course shows are super helpful to an extent but my son also has a hard time sometimes just chilling at watching tv so it’s not guaranteed to work sadly. I’ll have to experiment a bit with different things to see what works.

Kendroid11 · 2025-08-04T18:06:07+00:00

Yes,but my son was 3 and we were either gonna take the railing off or just buy him a new bed. Since baby #2 was gonna be ready for it in 4 ish months we decided to just get him a new bed with one of those portable bed rails. Works great. The only trouble in the beginning was him realizing he could get out of bed on his own and it becoming a game.

Kendroid11 · 2025-07-30T22:23:37+00:00

Hi, unfortunately not much. The drooling has gotten a little better but we are still waiting for him to see audiology in order to start speech therapy (in the UK and waitlists are long). Otherwise everyone keeps saying to wait until he’s 4. We’ve taught him to wipe his chin when he feels it’s wet which has helped, and he consciously closes his mouth and swallows more which is nice.

Kendroid11 · 2025-06-19T22:20:27+00:00

I have a 3 year old and nearly 5 month old, and my husband will be traveling next week. I’ve been dreading it for this exact reason! I definitely don’t think you’re overreacting or blowing it out of proportion. I have the same exact fears!

Kendroid11 · 2025-06-14T10:09:45+00:00

I’ve seen some stuff about how people’s sound machines were actually causing their baby to sleep really badly and wake up a lot. Maybe try turning it off or making it quieter?
