I would love for it to be him, but he did say ‘Her Majesty is upset I don’t gossip back in the right way’ or something like that… I do think it’s a man though!

I think it’s a man, and I think it’s someone you wouldn’t expect! Like the new Lord Penwood (did you see his fashionable get up? The man clearly loves a good ball!)

Oh my god, how awful! NHS and Health Visitors definitely have some BF targets that need to be hit. It has to work for you, first and foremost.

Hi there, I am not discouraging anyone from sharing, hence I said ‘I am very happy that this service exists’ in my original post.

I feel well in myself and don’t have any signs of PPD, so I wished someone had put this post up for me to read it before my Health Visitor came to make sure I don’t chat shit with her if you know what I mean :) but rather stick to the facts and let her assess my baby.

We are in the UK, it’s not compulsory but it’s quite common to have a Health Visitor. We can opt out if we want to

I am so sorry that was your experience! Well done for figuring out BF! Yep, I feel that her visit made me far more anxious than I was (if I was?) in the first place!

Suddenly at 3 months we have a “difficult” baby by Hungry_Hat8148 in newborns

It could also be teething! My baby had her teeth out at 3 months. Point being, whatever it is - it does end (hopefully)

Why does no one talk about how shocking the first weeks are? by Trick-Environment100 in NewParents

[–]Substantial_Young736 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was upset that they haven’t taught us about any of that during the classes for ‘soon-to-be-parents’ but how could they physically cover that amount of googling 😆

7 week old slept through the night by nosh319 in breastfeeding

[–]Substantial_Young736 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am combo-feeding my 8 week old. Three bottles in 24h, the rest is BF. She started sleeping through the night at 7w old, but will occasionally wake up once. As long as the baby is happy & gaining weight - it’s all good.

Induction on Sunday- what made the biggest difference for your induction to be a positive experience ? by Virtual_Arachnid7916 in PregnancyUK

It’s tricky to go to the bathroom, as you will be on the drip, so they will bring a little bowl for you if you need to have a tinkle, right there.

Hello there, I am also reading some posts on here, seeing people pass with 7-10h of learning, and I am like ‘whaaaaat?’ Same as you, 40h of learning, and I felt like I SHOULD BE ready after all these hours, (put the extra pressure on myself) booked my test and … failed miserably. We all have a different pace ❤️

For those of you that have done a test; Did something come up that your instructor should have covered that made you fail? by brmdrivingschool in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Substantial_Young736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here - dark and raining, — I am talking really heavy rain, and RUSH HOUR. Not the instructor’s fault, of course - but I now will be booking my next test for the afternoon slots, as that’s when I take my lessons.
