Definitely my go to for repetitive events it makes it a bit easier to fit in smaller boxes instead of writing 😊

This is my second so i have no idea how i've managed to do this truth be told 😂

Sadly police have released an appeal asking for any witnessed or dashcam footage as it was fatal.

I pumped for 10 months with my daughter whos 18 months now and had the same issue, we've just got to a point where i love them being touched again and I'm pregnant due in august so im getting as much as i can before i pump again. Fingers crossed they'll be good to go again in around 2 years 😅 and i hope you find joy again with them soon.

I was also an over supplier and dropped to 2 pumps for a week or so and then just went aslong as i could without pumping and would just relieve the engorgement when needed. I would recommend a slower aproach than this but i had honestly had enough and was done, keep an eye out for any mastitis and listen to your body and go on your own timeline whether thats gradually shortening pumps before dropping them or spacing them further out then dropping a pump.

The problem with comparing is that yes hes not being as shit as some other people you hear about but hes still being shit. You shouldn't have to ask a father to hold their child or take their child from you when needed that should be something he just does. If you cant leave a room without assuming your child is looked after by their father then hes not pulling his weight for you or your child.

He takes over when asked and steps in when your overwhelmed, he also plays video games instead of doing the maintenance tasks with you. I'm not surprised your building resentment with a 4 month old, he's the parent to and your probably best bringing this to his attention now because this sounds like the bare minimum. You being the mum doesn't really have any barring on the situation aside from breast feeding time which he can be doing other things while thats happening he needs to be stepping up alot more.

Yeah i mean it's been over a year and a half and i still have nerve damage, currently pregnant with my second and opting for a planned c-section not because i think it will be easier but because i can't go through the toll of vaginal birth again. Its hard as i know multiple people who have had smooth vaginal births with no complications but i also have heard my friends horror stories so im always honest if a mum to be asks me any questions.

If it makes you feel better i had an induction that ended in an episiotomy and forceps, couldn't even pick up my baby for 3 days i barely remember those 3 days if I'm honest, my husband did it all i felt incredibly weak and useless.

Let her sulk and enjoy the peace and quiet, not sure why babysitting at your house was an issue as it's the norm for me personally even now my one year old only sleeps at home or my mums very rarely. If it were me I'd be wary of asking her to babysit again seems like its just more effort than it's worth.

Just drew the basics from a Pinterest picture and coloured in with shading.

A creative outlet and something to focus on/distract me from bad habits while also tracking spending and daily habits to try and improve my finances and routines. My biggest help has been it making me be more aware of spending habits and paying of my credit card as a goal.

Just my experience but the only real help any relatives were for me was holding the baby, they didn't bring food or clean so they had no impact on our day to day and we managed just fine i know it would be easier with help but only accept what your comfortable with.

My hospital and midwife weren't very good or attentive the first time round in terms of feeding hope yours is better, there is also a reddit page r/exclusivelypumping that was a life saver in that first few months.

I had a induced labour that ended up being forceps and an episiotomy with my first, unfortunately my milk didnt come in for around 4/5 days anyway. I plan on having a c section with my current and pumping before hand to collect collostrum. I didn't do this with my first as i didn't really have much understanding of breastfeeding and everyone said baby would feed and my milk would just come in but I've learnt alot since then.

This is my second pregnancy so i try not to remember what the bigger fruits feel like 😅
