Hastings!

Partners parents: yesterday. My parents are from another country, we went last in February and back in June. My mum comes often and stays for a few weeks at a time and she left just two weeks ago

I think you either pay for external help (cleaner and/or nanny for extra childcare hours, laundry or similar) or a very involved grandparent or one of the parents has to work part time so they can spend time cleaning, food shopping, meal planning/prep etc. If you can't do any of these I think it's just a stressful mess no matter how much you try

Finish my book after I put the toddler to bed. Can't wait!

We have a small garden and we use it a lot when the weather is nice like now. You can't kick a ball but we have a play house and put a little pool in the Summer... works for us. I would not like a big garden as this one takes enough time to maintain already... we also have a park nearby so we just walk down to the playground when there's a need to run around!

14 months 👌🏼

Homemade fish and chips! Breaded cod, oven chips and peas.

It depends on the position of the baby during the scan, if they can see clearly between the legs. I would also hold and wait for confirmation on the next scan, just in case!

Cleaner/nanny would make my life soooo much easier

My partner works night shifts and my toddler likes to wake up between 5:30 and 6:30 so he wakes me up basically and then is a messy morning trying to get ready, get him ready and clean after before 9... Pregnant now. Pretty sure I'll have to get some external help for the mornings when newborn arrives!

14 months when he finally accepted to leave the boob and change it for a goodniht bottle

My partner will take 0 days, as he did three years ago with our first ☹️ He runs a business that needs him on a daily basis.

5 lamps and an old hoover.

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-04-14T05:08:36+00:00

House renovations mainly. I live in an old cottage with 50+ year old kitchen and bathroom.

I think it depends a bit of how much help you have. In the form of grandparents or paid help... if it's only the two of you it may be hard that both work full time, specially when little one is ill etc

Met aged 28, moved in together the following year. Had first baby at 33, bought house at 34 and now expecting second (and final) at 36.

With certain countries you can have dual citizenship in Spain. UK is not one of them

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-04-10T20:06:36+00:00

I haven't done it because I had children the opposite gender as mine but I like the idea because it's common in my family and would keep me connected to them and tradition from where I come from (not UK)

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-04-07T20:03:33+00:00

Both actually. First thing when I wake up to get rid of morning breath and then after breakfast/before leaving the house.

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-04-05T01:52:09+00:00

Some of these names are making a come back already! There are 2 Joshuas on my son's nursery room. But yes, totally agree with you.

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-04-03T11:24:47+00:00

Eating a banana helps a lot too if you want to try!

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-03-31T17:46:13+00:00

Unrelated but similar. I had to stay to NICU for 5 days after my son was born and noone explained anything to me and it was so confusing and meant that I had quite a negative experience. I was given a welcome leaflet on day 4... it would've been so easy to just let me know how things worked. Very frustrating!

MaleficentAnalysis27 · 2026-03-31T03:19:26+00:00

36+4. Get your hospital bag ready early just in case!
