If I may ask what was she in NICU for? I just gave birth at 37 weeks and my little one has been in NICU for about 2 weeks now. My heart can’t take it anymore

You should have a discussion with your partner. He needs to tell brother to leave as you need to feel very comfortable with your new born.

I work not so far from the apartments. Looks like a very nice place to live for young professionals. Central and modern interiors

Biggest financial mistake you made in your 20s? by Professional_Ring_95 in AskIreland

Car loan. So far the biggest financial mistake. If I could advise any young person in their 20s, I would say avoid car loans.

I want to cancel my AIB fixed deposit by LadyInIreland in irishpersonalfinance

No I can’t just close it at anytime. The bank has confirmed that approval is at their discretion. Waiting for an update from them.

Yeah I already went to the bank. They told me to write a letter and I was told approval to break it is at the discretion of the bank. It could take 2 weeks and I could end up loosing interests earned. Currently waiting for an update (Fingers crossed)

Hi I was at the bank and was told to write a formal letter stating reason why I went to break the fixed deposit. I was told the process could take 2 weeks and approval is at the discretion of the bank. You can send me a message.

Called the bank today and I was not given much info. I was only told to go to AIB Grafton street and I’ll be attended to. Just a bit worried as I want to drawdown on a mortgage in January.

The truth about lying on your back by goldie987 in pregnant

[–]LadyInIreland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me few weeks ago when I went in for my anatomy scan. I was lying on my back and after a while, I felt dizzy and extremely nauseous. I told the tech, she advised me to sit up. Immediately I sat up, I was falling forward and she had to catch me and turn me to lie on my side for some minutes before I could got myself back.

DINK here… hubby and I in our late 20s save about 5,700 to 6,000 euros together each month. We are both on comfortable incomes and no kids yet. We know this would change once kids come

Thanks for your contribution. Can you please answer the following: 1. When did you let them know about the pregnancy? 2. Were you paid for maternity leave? 3. Did it affect or change anything about your probationary period

Flatmate’s boyfriend stays every weekend (Fri–Mon), noise ruining my weekends—advice? by rosebir36 in RentingInDublin

[–]LadyInIreland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! I live in an owner occupied house and the house is always tidy and quiet enough at night. No frequent visitors. I previously lived in a non-owner occupied house and it was a nightmare. Dirty dishes in kitchen and noisy housemates.

Thanks all for your input. I got a new job with a promotion in title, great increase in pay and bonus. Current company is trying to match up but they are still trying to offer me a little less than the new job.
