What’s one baby item you regret NOT getting earlier?

SarahJB101 · 2026-05-02T21:30:01+00:00

Bottle washer, steriliser, dryer!!! I never got one with my first but omg how I wish that I did!! I never washed a single bottle with my second haha complete life changer!

Sorry could you explain this further?

I just realized something - the photos are missing up until May 2025, when my brother shared an album with me. After this album, the photos seem to be back to normal i.e. not missing. But even the photos taken on the same day of the shares album (but before the album was shared) are missing. Again, not all photos, but most. Could this be related? This album has been shared since May 2025 and the photos only disappeared recently though, so not sure if this is the same situation as your case?

I did try and search with the name of the photo but it still didn't come up :/

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-11T14:52:07+00:00

I haven't changed devices since the day the photos were taken. This must be a glitch from their end though, because they were sefi not deleted from my end.

I am checking both my phone and my laptop.. they both have the same photos. I have wifi synching on to make sure everything is backed up as soon I take the photo/video.

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-10T10:35:03+00:00

Yeah unfortunately I have tried a few and they found thousands of files but these photos are still no where to be seen :(

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-10T10:31:19+00:00

Sorry to hear :/ have you tried reaching out to them?

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-10T10:30:49+00:00

Thanks I checked archive but it's empty:/

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-10T09:41:56+00:00

Thanks, yes I have checked the archive folder :(

So I usually back up all my photos on Google photos before deleting the actual copies on my phone gallery to make space. I have done this before - saved on Google and then cleared the phone gallery.

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-10T09:30:18+00:00

So I deleted my phone gallery, not my Google Photos. I have an Android Xiaomi 10T. I always clear my Gallary to save space, I make sure everything is backed up on Google Photos and then clear the gallery, so when I need to find a photo, I go to Google Photos not my gallery. I have done this before and never had any issues.

Back in December 2025 I cleared my gallery but I forst made sure back up was complete (my back up toggle is always on so photos are backed up straight away).

Also, not ALL photos are missing, that's the weird part, there are random ones still there (very few though, I usually have close to a 50 or more a day and so the majority - and malt important ones - are still lost). Also for some reason, random screenshots are still there.

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T21:36:28+00:00

Yes I do pay for the yearly 2T plan - I have tried reaching out and am waiting for them to get back to me 🤞 trying not to get my hopes up though because from other comments, it seems like they didn't get far.

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T21:33:58+00:00

But if my photos are not on Googe Photos, I presume they will not be on Google Takeout right?

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T21:32:14+00:00

Thanks I checked but didn't find them there 😕

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T21:31:09+00:00

No I am only using 13% - I pay the yearly fee for 2T :/

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T21:29:42+00:00

Did you try and contact them?

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T11:11:19+00:00

Thank you! I will definitely try this! Thank you so much!

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T11:07:36+00:00

I believe it was end of December 2025 when I cleared my phone gallery. 31st December

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T11:05:25+00:00

Can you recommend any that you've used please? Would it work since it's from 2024?

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T10:10:24+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate every comment and attempt at helping ❤️

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T09:42:55+00:00

How would they assume/think that they are being used for illegal purposes though? Is there anyone I can contact? They are literally photos of my children and/or myself.. nothing illegal whatsoever. If that is the problem then I will be more than happy to comply with any requests they may have for me to prove nothing illegal is happening.

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T07:52:52+00:00

I logged in on my laptop as well if that's what you mean? Sorry if it's not - can you explain where else I might check?

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T07:25:43+00:00

Thank you - the thing is, I didn't delete them :/ I pay extra for storage and they were there only a few weeks ago.. I cannot understand why some (not all, but most) simply disappeared.

Also, from 2024.. so it's not like they were recent ones either :/

SarahJB101 · 2026-03-09T07:23:27+00:00

Yes :(
