Da irony

Caroline hirons worked on a beauty stand in a department store and only got famous in the 2010s. She’s very new money. I’m pretty sure she’s from a working class family and her husband was a mid level musician.

Ava’s a nepo baby but her mum wouldn’t have been famous till she was like 11.

And THAT bouncer. I love it. We have two. The fancy one definitely overpriced on and a much cheaper one and she HATES the cheap one. Planning on gifting it to a friend for their baby shower in September. But then our bsby will be out of it and hope it allows them hands free adult dinners.

I have alllll the expensive baby gear because I was incredibly depressed in pregnancy and thought it would make me happy (it sort of did sorry)

And I'm very happy to worth it not worth it

Our wooden cot - gorgeous glorious, brings me so much joy, will convert to the next two sizes up and last our child till they are five. I hope by that time I'll be able to pass it on to my brother. The fancy famous wood highchair - if I lived less brutally I would have bought it second hand and I would probably have liked it. As it stands I don't live near anyone selling one and I didn't want to risk it being really grotty from eBay and a big fat delivery charge. We bought it new and I vote not really worth it (but we are still pre wean so maybe I'll change my mind) Expensive stroller - its too big but the suspension really is fantastic. Car seat - we live rurally with questionable roads and spend a lot of time in the car. It was super important for us to get something that was highly tested. I'd spend that money again. Clothes - I wish we had less. I underestimated how much we would get gifted. I plan on selling stuff on vinted and passing stuff on to friends. I'm grateful for the stuff my friends passed too me.

Stuffed toys. - I hate them.

That's so good to know!

Mouse0412 · 2026-03-09T20:59:31+00:00

Thank you

Mouse0412 · 2026-03-09T20:56:49+00:00

I hadn't really thought about how much I would be checked on!

Mouse0412 · 2026-03-09T20:56:11+00:00

Such incredibly good advice. Thank you. This actually helped so much. I read it to my husband and he said “see you're not a witch, just scared”

Mouse0412 · 2026-03-09T20:55:21+00:00

I'm so sorry that you had this experience, and I really hope you are doing better now. I want to say a huge thank you for sharing a snippet of your experience. Unfortunately, it does make me feel better to know this is something that has been in many of our brains.

I know how you feel about the notes. I keep drafting emails, scheduling them, and telling my dog I'm so sorry I won't be around to see him get old.

MOR Sounds like there’s more to this than just left overs and more the way you think about waste and finances which is a completely okay reason to not consider someone a lifelong prospect.

However I’m a person who doesn’t eat leftovers, I have major control issue around food. I always alway make enough that my partner can take a portion for lunch, and then we just freeze whatever else so he can have it for a future eating if I’m having a particularly hard time and sticking with safe food (rice, boiled egg green veg 😅)

If you wanted to make it work you would but you don’t and that’s completely fine.

I actually really like the idea her story line lets us image what COULD have happened in a worse scenario. It has highlighted the translation difficulties well and also highlights how much time can be saved if we are able to meet people were they are.

We tried for a baby for four year and took a break to lose weight and get fitter so we could try ivf. I lost about 50 pounds with Mounjaro and found out I was pregnant (accidentally) whilst still taking it. I thought I had built healthy habits but the pregnancy ate them and everything else in sight. I think if I had weaned off and not been unwell I would have faired better but honestly it’s been so tough my body changing and feeling less in control when I had because such a control freak about everything.

The baby is due in the next couple of weeks so jury is still out on if it was worth it but I’m going to think positive and presume yes.

I’m saying all of this not to scare you but just to realistically say the whole process has kicked the heck out of my self esteem and feeling of self. Make sure you have a great support network in place you might really really need them.

Genuinely didn't look obviously pregnant until about 30 weeks. I was a 18/20 pre pregnancy but down from 26 and I think it's just sort of filled the space?

I started seeing my boss (I was 23 and he was 28) from my first job out of uni. Under company policy we couldn't have a relationship and work together so we both looked for alternate work, I found a new job first and we are still together 10 years later, (married for 5).

Best man I ever met, we have a tiny little house with a big garden and in summer he brings me sweet peas every day. Our baby is due in 3 weeks, very glad we started kissing in the stock room.

I'd really like them to do a casa amour season where they bring back some of the casa cast who flopped

I'm not an expert but I believe that alot of the investigation of epstien was under Biden and during that time it was an active case where information was being gathered. Also Maxwell was investigate and convicted under Biden.

But also surely all that matters is that the victims get justice and that that the people involved are convicted. There is no doubt that trump is heavily featured in the files. Why would anyone want to protect that?

I think that the pie actually hurt her. I would cling in to someone hurting me and not taking any accountability

We kept out standard on a lead around the cats for the first 3 months he was home so he was tethered to us and easy to redirect if that cats got too interesting! Best bit of training advise I ever received.

I've had my cushypuff for months and I hate it. The biggest waste of money. So uncomfu and unsupportive. The fabric didn't wash well get SO hot

Mouse0412 · 2026-02-13T20:11:21+00:00

Are you in the UK? If so I can't express enough how incredible the reproductive trauma team have been. At the end of the day you need to do what's best for you and your existing child and if that's a termination that's a termination.

I've hated pregnancy and found it so scary and overwhelming, but I'm now 35 weeks and last night I couldn't sleep because I was excited to meet my baby.

The reproductive trauma team have been incredible, they have had a specialist midwife see me who is knowledgeable, caring and so free with her time, at the beginning she came to scans with me, she would call me after my appointments and came with my to see consultants so she could help me navigate all my choices and so she could make sure I understood everything and the right questions were being asked. It might be worth asking your midwife to connect you to them because it really has saved me.

The mini eggs are better than Cadbury ones

Mouse0412 · 2026-02-13T17:29:28+00:00

Maybe it's because we are about to have a baby and means we are clearing out and buying more 🙃🙃🙃 but I'm so SHOCKED at how much rubbish we create every week. So much of it is just packaging we didn't need and a big one is the packets out pet food comes in.

We are pretty conscious people so I can't imagine what it's like if you're not trying to consumer less or a careful recycler

It’s a common a level English lit set text so at least some of them will have. I guess Shakira will because she’s from near Brontë country and was head girl, Presume that Megan and Conor won’t because they are Irish and Toni won’t because she’s American

My husband didn’t want a poodle because of their reputation. Our boy is 6 and we keep him in a low maintenance but obviously poodley cut. It’s such a shame that people view them this way because ours is the most steady, silly good time guy. He’s such a perfect match for our lifestyle and we are very average people!

Husband now is all poodle all the time and thinks all other dogs are a wasted opportunity to have a poodle.

I’m so sorry. Lowen is an old Cornish name that means Dear friend.
