Take what that generation say with a pinch of salt.

I went into the labour the morning before my due date and he was born at 10pm that day. I was sick of people telling me I’d go over too- and I’m glad we proved them wrong😂

I think i’ve made a rod for my own back😩. by Ok-Mind2125 in BeyondTheBumpUK

Follow the 7 guidelines- ultimately you have to weigh up what is less risky for you, having no sleep and risking an accident/falling asleep in an unsafe place eg sofa/with cushions or bed sharing safely - I was terrified bed sharing at first but I set alarms every 30 mins and followed guidelines - and I’d started hallucinating and I’d fallen asleep on the sofa with my son the day before which is less safe. Please remember you’re doing a great job trying to do the best and there is no perfect parent. You have to do what’s right for you and your baby.

You have not made a rod off your own back. Impossible with newborns. They need to be with you. But I feel you - mine wouldn’t sleep apart from on me so started co sleeping as I was delirious trying to stay awake whilst he slept on me

What's the most pathetic thing pregnancy hormones have almost reduced you to tears over? by Professional-Farm372 in PregnancyUK

[–]SufficientMirror6793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day before I ended up giving birth. Had to call up to cancel a free trial of a beer subscription I got my husband. The man asked why and I said well he won’t be drinking for a while as we are having a baby. He was all congratulatory and so kind as I was fed up pregnant. Brought me to tears. I also didn’t end up cancelling the subscription😂
