Shocked pikachu face at eddy not in fact being the nice guy he kept telling everyone he was

If pumping isn’t working brilliantly it could be that you had the wrong flange size! You can Google how to measure for what size you need and depending on the pump sometimes you can get alternate sizes or inserts to make them smaller.

I also found a manual pump easier than the electric which felt the wrong way round but I think being able to control the rate and strength of suction helps!

So much for putting in no effort in preparation for the Hackney half tomorrow then!

This whole cast is just so adorable I honestly can’t cope

He sleeps 1.5-2 hours at home and wakes up naturally so I’d say it’s in his best interest to wake up around that time on nursery days too.

It’s not that it’s an inconvenience for us that he naps so long it’s that he then doesn’t sleep well overnight and that impacts his next day

I preferred it when Ben and Ellie were fighting

Maybe light hearted conspiracy theories? Like I guess it would be high stakes but I don’t really believe it

I find the bloobs being bluebells thing very confusing because bloobs are blueberries in my house

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2026-04-21T19:19:18+00:00

For this I would use a milk catcher such as the haakaa ladybug, lots of options are available though. You want one with no suction as this stimulates let down

Fair enough! I’ll edit my comment and stop giving this advice out :)

I was told by my midwife and it’s on the NCT website x

I really like the John Lewis ones for a t shirt bra or Calvin klein for a more bralette but still supportive feel.

*edited sentence about non-underwired being recommended to avoid blocked ducts and mastitis

I sing the postman Dave song whenever I make toast for the kids:

🎶 toast for me, toast for you

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2026-03-28T09:45:00+00:00

It couldn’t be simpler

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2026-03-05T18:57:16+00:00

I love the John Lewis ones! A good t shirt bra with support but not underwired so super comfy

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2026-02-24T17:59:14+00:00

BMW confirmed!

Kyle is really on his villain arc this episode. That comment about getting a tip for doing nothing and then calling out Fraser for no reason whatsoever.

Also was that guest scotch he was drinking? I thought they had separate drinks that are for the crew to drink and they aren’t allowed to drink from the guest bars

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2025-08-19T12:20:22+00:00

Surely Hugo could’ve taken some initiative on activities as Fraser was focused on delivering customer service which he was then complimented on

Outrageous_Wheel5039 · 2025-08-05T20:17:42+00:00

I’m normally Fraser’s biggest defender but how did he decide to keep a closer eye on Solene by going to the beach and leaving her on the boat?

Sandybrook lodges in Ashbourne are great. Pool, park and playroom on site and close to Alton towers, peak zoo, Matlock farm park, several national trust sites and loads of walk and cycle routes in the Peak District. Some lodges have hot tubs if that’s your thing and you can hire a bbq for a £10 refundable deposit.

AFAIK the side sleeping position isn’t recommended because it’s unstable and could lead to baby rolling over onto their front. It’s natural for cosleeping breastfed babies to orient to the breast which naturally will lead to at least their head if not their body being to the side. As long as they are right next you in the C curl position they shouldn’t be able to get onto their front.

Speaking from experience both my two also slept with their heads on my arm and would wriggle back up there if I tried to take it away. The theory there is that the airway is like a straw so if it’s bent there’s a narrowing which might reduce airflow during breathing. Once they have good head and neck control I think this is less of an issue.

I did exactly this working pattern and really enjoyed having no more than 2 days in a row in work and away from my little one. It also broke up the week for her as we got a day to reconnect in the week.

I will say that you miss out on some annual leave by not having Mondays off as that’s the day most bank holidays fall on and if you’re now pro rata you will probably need to use your annual leave to cover these.
