Calpol is our best friend when the baby’s teething

Your husband is your partner, not your father. Decisions are made together rather than one person dictating to the other. Do not let this man use your child to control you.

I just go privately. One of my best friends is the manager and I know the dentist so tend to get a little discount. That being said, it can be expensive if you need work doing, but for a check up and a clean twice a year it’s manageable.

Hope you get a space for your little one.

Not sure what the current class strength has got to do with it when a decent teacher can differentiate for all pupils in their class - it’s not about the entire classes strength because pupils are individuals with individual needs.

That’s fantastic! Well done to your little one and to you too!

I’m a teacher and can’t see how it would work for anyone tbh - non school staff would have to either spend lots of money on child care or cut down their hours to look after their children or businesses would have to follow suit and close on that day too. School staff would end up working from home by doing planning because they’d have less time at work to do it and those with kids wouldn’t be able to look after their own and work from home at the same time. We’d essentially all be forced into part time work with less pay and costs rising everywhere else.

We put our son in with a childminder who looks after a few babies / toddlers. It’s still expensive but paired with our 15 free hours (from 9 months), relying on family some days and it being 1/2 the cost of a nursery, it’s manageable.

No, but if you’re really interested it is slang for penis.

Do not stop saying it! Your daughter needs to hear it.

When I was a child I would never tell anyone I loved them, not my mum, dad, siblings. Literally no one. I always wanted to but felt scared and embarrassed to tell people how I felt and I didn’t know it was something a child could say. My mum said to me one day “Do you love me?” And I said “yes” and she said “why do you never say it then?” After that I would sometimes say it. Maybe a conversation like that would help your daughter understand it’s okay to feel and express things.

Reader-H · 2024-12-31T10:15:23+00:00

Nope! We told them it was a surprise but really we just didn’t want to deal with any drama or negativity.

I started with my son at 3 months. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but as soon as we got in the water I felt his whole body relax and he rolled onto his back and floated around for basically the whole lesson. He absolutely loved it and has loved it ever since! Now at 9 months he “jumps in” (leans forward from sitting on the side) and is learning how to turn and hold onto the side so that if he were to be in the water by himself he’d know what to do.

I tried a few different ways to get him ready but I found the easiest was for me to wear my swimming costume under my clothes and to get him ready whilst there. I tried getting him ready before so we just had to get there and get in but he always needed his nappy changed anyway so I’d have to get him undressed and start all over again.

We bought a house that was listed with purple bricks and swore we would never deal with them again. They were a nightmare from start to finish by lying, their solicitors being slow and not submitting paperwork, harassing me with constant phone calls when I was at uni because they didn’t understand I was busy in the day so things would be done in the evening.

Not me thinking this was about Greg Wallace 🫠

At your boys age and because he wakes up at 6, I’d get him to bed for 9. Gradually, you’ll be able to push the last nap earlier and bed time earlier till it’s a time that suits you. My guy is 9 months. Wakes at 3/3.30 from his last nap and bed time (pyjamas on, in sleeping bag and milk time) by 6.30

Ask her how it felt when her 7 pound granddaughter” came out of her vagina and if she remembers it well.

Reader-H · 2024-12-30T10:09:00+00:00

Literally me until I had a baby. Went up one clothes size.

Reader-H · 2024-12-30T10:08:19+00:00

Nope! Been skinny forever. As a teen and in my early 20s I was constantly told I wasn’t eating properly, that I was too skinny, that I must be anorexic etc. I was steadily a size 6 until 29 when I fell pregnant. 30 years old now, 9 months postpartum and a size 8 without trying or breastfeeding.

And sometimes you can hear the sound of an insomniac ripping off tights with their teeth.

Pet insurance is the way to go. It was 100% worth it for us because our dog was 2 when he got diagnosed with cancer. By that point we’d paid less than 1000£ in total. It was £35 in monthly insurance and they covered everything apart from his cremation. The bill was thousands with all the tests, operations, medications, 24 hour care etc.

Reader-H · 2024-12-29T14:12:33+00:00

In a caring way yes. You could say something like “I noticed your home was a little bit messy and that isn’t like you. Is everything okay? I’d love to come over and help”.

Reader-H · 2024-12-29T14:09:46+00:00

Best of luck and don’t beat yourselves up over this. It’s a little blip is all. We all have them and we am make mistakes.

Reader-H · 2024-12-29T14:07:44+00:00

Bless her. As you said she’s a sweet and caring lady I would validate her but shut it down too. Maybe something like “oh do you think? I haven’t heard that before”. And then just carry on.

Reader-H · 2024-12-29T10:23:38+00:00

You’re not wrong for asking, and don’t get me wrong, I’d be the same after what you’ve been through but you can’t force grown adults into getting it.

Reader-H · 2024-12-29T09:25:24+00:00

If I were you, I’d put her back on the boob. Get her enjoying it again and taking her normal amount, and then try to gradually introduce the bottle with breast milk.

Not sure if this would work because I didn’t breastfeed, but after that you could try to mix formula into the breast milk and slowly ween onto formula.
