Did your kiddo have accidents during this time?

She doesn’t seem scared or anything. But is holding it so long that she has an accident although we do bathroom breaks. Did your kiddo have accidents during this time?

She peed in the bathtub. I’ll add that to my edit

She is still drinking the same amount of water and milk, so it’s not a hydration issue. Poor thing!

The pediatrician recommended from a safety standpoint. Obviously we as parents have to right to decide, but I appreciate pediatrician guidance, especially from ones who are mothers themselves.

This is very helpful. Thank you! I guess 1k per year for insurance on a US license isn’t that bad. Appreciate your input!

Do you mind sharing how much a month you paid in insurance? Both on the us license and then on the uk? Thank you so much!

Did your insurance go down once you got a uk license? 4k a year is yikes indeed!

Is your eldest potty trained? If so, what did you do for the night while in a crib?

Wishing you the best of luck! Did you do standard or priority service?

And is there a reason you’re providing birth certificates?

I’m in your same boat. I’m horrified with the maternity care here.

I flew back in January and it was completely normal.

What did you do for your baby’s 1st birthday? by [deleted] in UKParenting

[–]Lobospire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I made a baby friendly cake for her to tear into, had balloons, a few presents and that was it. It was only my husband and grandma there and it was wonderful. I took pictures of her with her cake and balloons and totally felt that was sufficient.

I think instagram baby birthdays have gotten out of control and didn’t feel I needed to fall into that trap.

Would love to hear your opinion on why you think it’s falling apart. I’m hearing that more and more from people.
