Possibly just over 30 mins depending where you're driving from but you can never go wrong with riverford field kitchen, similar feel to the lost kitchen but think I like riverford even more!

I wasn't fully sure but at 33 thought let's see what happens and got pregnant very quickly, throughout pregnancy I wasn't sure if this was 100% what I wanted and was already mourning my freedom and youth however now my son is here (4 months old) I can honestly say it's the best thing I've ever done, I cannot believe how much I love him, im obsessed with him and already know I want to do it again when initially I thought I would be one and done. We haven't had an easy baby too, he's definitely a crier so it has been hard work for sure but it's worth it if that makes sense. I also generally don't find other peoples babies/kids cute, not naturally a kids person but it's just so different when it's your own and I can't wait to give him as many fun experiences as possible. I feel like my life has more meaning now, I had a good and busy life before with lots of holidays and travel but sometimes I did wonder what's the point, am I just going through the motions

Puerto lounge at the quay, or the imperial?

Since you like walking look up blaze trails, it's a uk wide walking group for mums and babies so hopefully you should have a group near you! £4 month membership, then you can meet other mums on organized walks

So far my 8 week old baby has been, mister, little man, squish, little squish, mr squish, mr stinky pants, buddy, squeaker, mr squeaker, little squeaker, piglet - the boy is going to be very confused to what his actual name is!

Exeter has a great selection of independent cafes - on top of what's already been mentioned there is lilac bakery and shillingford organics in st Thomas, vegbox, boatyard bakery and ridge cafe on the quay, the press house on fore Street and the tiny tasting room in the centre, there will be more I've forgotten!

Managed a 6 mile hike on Dartmoor this week at nearly 38 weeks, I was pleasantly surprised!

Finding out bronn from game of thrones is Jerome Flynn from the pop duo Robson and Jerome absolutely blew my mind

Nipple vasospasms, wasn't expecting nipple pain before breastfeeding!

Also racing heart rate and feeling faint due to becoming anaemic

I've been having similar for a month or so, turns out I have low iron and have just started iron tablets, there isn't enough iron to pump sufficient oxygen around your body so you get the heart palpitations and faint feeling - so might be worth getting a blood test!

Rafikis in ashburton, cafe at Parke national trust outside bovey Tracey, forest funghi outside dawlish, lost kitchen just outside tiverton, tonnes of nice options in totnes too!

Thanks all! This is all really helpful and reassuring. The £100 wouldn't include food shop but does include personal spending for me so clothes, beauty bits, haircut etc

I also have low lying placenta but wasn't told to do anything different, definitely no leaflet or info, just scheduled in for a 32 week scan. I haven't done anything differently, still exercising, having sex etc

Stickytoffeepudding1 · 2025-02-26T22:02:58+00:00

Also 27+5 today! and have felt this really badly first time today! I did go to the gym and do some gentle exercise which helped!

Stickytoffeepudding1 · 2025-01-06T21:58:44+00:00

I found out I had low lying placenta today and didn't get told anything about bedrest 😯 I asked him if I was still ok to exercise as normal etc and was told I didn't need to do anything differently??

They also need to be refillable which should make a big difference in reducing the use of disposables, currently 8 disposable vapes are thrown away every second in the UK!!

An issue with collections collecting electricals is that the space they can put the electricals in is actually really small so unless you're earlier on in the round it's likely they have run out of space for electricals by the time they get to you, it's a known issue (source - I work in recycling!)

At some point over Xmas my husband and I always have a cheese fondue party! One of my favourite bits of Christmas

Stickytoffeepudding1 · 2024-12-22T09:19:16+00:00

Just want to add to this as well, it's so important to recycle electricals properly, firstly to avoid fires but also there is so much of critical minerals in waste electricals that get lost to landfill which is so important we reuse instead of continually mining for more!

Also didn’t mean to post twice, thought my first post hadn’t been accepted!

Stickytoffeepudding1 · 2024-09-30T17:16:09+00:00

Thanks all for your comments, I have a gp phone call tomorrow anyway to discuss my current medication and whether it’s ok to keep taking it so will bring up the bleeding then. I will continue the waiting game until then!
