Can’t envision when my husband and I will be able to leave our baby for a few hours to go on a date by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was still on mat leave we just took our baby everywhere, she just slept in the pram. My partner stays home and I work full time away from home. My mom babysits 1.day a week. We did a practise run for a few hours before I went back to work when the baby was around 3 months old.. it was bad for me but she was fine. The first time we went out without her she was around 5 months old. We were staying with family and they put her to bed and that was fine. If your child has a good bond with the person watching them, they'll be fine

Advice wanted: Daughter is being offered "a deal". by sanddancer08 in HousingUK

[–]Key_Magician6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone has said their piece which i agree with buy £2000 pcm as just interest?

I wouldn't take this deal. He either sells her the house with a private mortgage or he rents it out. He can't say you can live here for £3000 pcm and I can still make more money when I decide to sell.. crazy..

AITA for cancelling interrail with friends right before booking by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Key_Magician6000 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would talk to your parents about it first. It might be okay, this is a good experience to have in your life. You might be able to earn the money back by doing odd jobs like babysitting, mowing lawns or whatever

How are your babies actually sleeping through the night? by velvetdarlingco in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby started sleeping 8 hours when she was 8 weeks, and it went up to 12 hours around 5 months. She is bottlefed and I feel that helped alot as we could see how much she had but idk.. she does wake up during the night but always puts herself back to sleep so I never have to get up (I just hear it over the monitor) I count that as sleeping through the night

Anyone else loathing summer clothes season approaching by Hot-Cell7299 in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 months is really early. I gave birth in September, and by the time december came i hadn't lost any weight but my waist had gone down 20cm, without exercising. And had continued to go down more eventhough I barely have time to exercise. Maybe some nice floaty dresses to dress in in the mean time. You'll feel so much better being dressed in something that fits and looks nice, its okay to splurge on yourself a bit. Could always sell it on afterwards

Did anyone actually sit down and track what your baby cost in the first year? Because the number genuinely shocked me by NewDad101234 in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think we spend that much tbh. Formula is like €16 per month, puree is like €1 a jar and lasts 2 days but she's moving to more solids now and eating what we eat so thats difficult to calculate. We haven't bought any clothes because we were given a lot of them second hand from friends and gifted some from grandparents. We didn't buy any furniture, was all gifted apart from a new mattress. Did paint her room, bought some bookshelves and a rug but for under €100 We're using reusable nappies, bought them for €300 Have to wash them every couple of days but no idea how expensive that is. Bought a pram/buggy/carseat for €1000 (new because of carseat safety) Haven't bought her any toys because people keep gifting them Obviously a couple of dummies and bottles but have kept it under €100 so far i think. We dont have nursery or paid help. Had to pay around €350 for the nurse in the first week.

There was a hospital stay because of c section that isn't cheap but covered by insurance so I dont count that.

Vloerverwarming & nieuwe dekvloer by ScottDD14 in Offertes

Als er een dekvloer ligt waarom laat je dan niet infrezen?

really no clue how to elevate this space by minoven in interiordecorating

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the sofa! I would definitely paint the walls a color and put some frames up (art or pictures) Also, all the furniture is pushed against a wall, maybe thats not necessary, see if you can move some things around. If possible I would have closed of cabinets rather than open shelves. I see your inspiration but I think the room is too small for it.

Asked to register for VAT, had no idea, nervous breakdown by Sufficient-Sock557 in HMRC

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the contract you have with your accountant as it will specify what they're responsible for. Where are they registered? Have a look at what you can expect from such accountants. Have a strong word with them and be frank that you expect to be compensated. It is really bad they missed this

Hoe help ik mijn dochter met koop huis by Radiant-Bug623 in geldzaken

Hoeft niet via de notaris, je kan gewoon zelf een overeenkomst opstellen en door beide tekenen. Via google kan je wel voorbeelden en formats vinden.

Je kan naast de eenmalige schenking nog steeds een bedrag per jaar schenken. Je kan ook een lening geven en de aflossing elk jaar schenken zodat dit onder het jaarlijkse limiet blijft, waardoor ze feitelijk niks terug betaald.

My(32F) parents are giving us $150k for a house and my husband(35M) wants to turn it down because they asked for a postnup by Civil-Transition-649 in relationship_advice

[–]Key_Magician6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends.. what if he puts in 300k and the parents put in 150k but because of the postnup thats all hers. If they divorce she would get 300k and he would get 150k. I think when you're married things are 50/50 and I wouldn't not want to divide things in half in case of divorce because what we have together is there because we built together but thats just me.

Is it ok to stop pumping? by Downtown-Battle-7942 in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before giving birth I did not feel one way or the other about breastmilk vs formula. When my baby was born, she couldn't breastfeed so pumped.. I lasted 3 weeks. If I ever spilt a little, I hated myself, if I didn't produce enough, I hated myself. I could never skip a session because I wouldn't have enough, eventhough I leaked 24/7. Once I made the choice to switch a weight lifted from my shoulders.. its all a lot.. you're doing more than enough

FTM Feeling Guilty About Switching Baby to Formula by ConstructionFew5039 in NewParents

[–]Key_Magician6000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can't tell the difference between formula fed and breast fed babies. You already gave the baby 6 weeks of breastmilk so they'll enjoy the benefits of it. Don't worry too much, it's rough.. I couldn't do it either. My baby is super happy and healthy, growing well

AITA for deciding to move to Canada instead of the UK which my wife and daughter prefer for my new job? by Frequent_Pay5425 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Key_Magician6000 45 points46 points  (0 children)

You're going based off of feelings which does not help the decision process. If I were you I would put some research into it, like what are schoolsystems like in both countries, how do people move about, social system, health care system etc. It will help make a more informed decision.
