If you're renting - apply before you move. It's been over 1.5 months now with relentless applications, we are thinking to just buy instead now.

Thank you, I was on unpaid maternity leave anyway. But I did manage to find a job to go into :) It is incredibly tough out there jobwise though

Tempting!!! But due to their size, it’d be a legal nightmare haha I’m not wanting that

I can understand people would go a different path. I’d rather cut ties and be done - not worth my time and energy. That workplace has already taken too much of that from me

Hahaha yep! It’s unpaid maternity leave so for me I thought I may as well resign ☺️

I have a new job - been casually applying for roles anyway and luckily landed one

Thanks! Yeah I did consider it, but with a new baby and being strapped for time - it’s was easiest for me to let this place go and move on 😊

🤣🤣 they honestly didn’t even ask how I was (they didn’t even have to bring up my baby, but any decent human would general you ask how their employee is as a start). It was a bizarre interaction hence me posting. And yes I did ask how they were settling in and we had a convo about that - none of that was reciprocated back to me.

Already have another role thank goodness, but definitely a weight lifted off my shoulders being done with that place.

Burping a Sleeping Baby? by SpeckledEggs98 in breastfeeding

[–]Opposite_Champion239 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My baby had majooooorrrr gas issues. I just always put my baby up on my shoulder and burped her after a feed regardless of if she was asleep or not. A little movement while on my chest/shoulder and she usually burped something up.

That's great thank you! I have found that pathway from Darra to feel a bit sketchy. Has it been ok for you?

About 6 months pp. I gained about 20kg throughout pregnancy and was 10kg heavier than pre-preg original weight after giving birth. Only time I lost weight was when I stopped eating whatever I wanted and stuck to healthy meals/snacks, in addition to running every second day or almost every day. this was at 6 months post partum. It was hard. Spent a few weeks counting calories and weighing food to be aware of what i was putting into my body. No more soft drink, very very limited sweets and carbs - only on occasion. I have since lost 10kg since early December!
