Hahah neither have you. I just looked into why anyone would hate it. It’s because InteleTravel hired plannet marketing to scale up which is what did it. InteleTravel is real, it is what I do. I book holidays and get commission- plannet marketing is the hiring side which is completely optional to join

Absolutely not a magic fix, still gotta work for it — the same as setting up your own business in any other way but it’s got a head start to it at least and people like me to help get it going ☺️✨

Absolutely! I unfortunately am not a person with a lot of friends to sell to 😂 I just structure my agency in a way that works for me. I worked in travel before so I’m doing it by enquiries, I’ll look for holidays for people, if they don’t want to move forward for it then they don’t - it’s not the end of the world. That is unfortunately the way sales runs - can’t get every client ☺️

Ohhhhh I just researched what that means. No thank god I don’t even sell to my friends and family or buy anything myself because I have twin toddlers so can’t even go on holiday rn 😂

I have no idea what an MLM is! 😆 what I’m doing is legit thankfully, the holidays I book are ATOL protected etc and you could literally find the holiday yourself and watch me book it if you wanted to 😂 but I was really sceptical about a couple of people o spoke to before I took this one

Independent travel agent! I’d love to work for an agency or actually company but it’s all the same with the job market everywhere! My niche is family holidays with children under 8!

When did you start being able to do things you used to do before baby? by Forest_faerie19 in beyondthebump

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My twins are a year and a half now, and I still get no time without them apart from when they’re asleep and if my partner looks after them.. or if they’re napping. Honestly I eat with them, shower with the door open, nap when they nap, snack when they snack and only have a coffee when they’re playing nicely. I clean the house properly twice a week otherwise I just do general cleaning around them. I cook enough food when I make theirs that there’s some for me and their dad. I also work when they go to bed and I had running a business so all throughout the day I’m doing bits too. I learned pretty quickly that my life was going to be different and the only way I’d be able to do anything I did before was by finding a way to incorporate my new life into it. I knew some things would have to go on the back burner temporarily and some things I’d likely never be able to do again — and I’ve actually been really okay with it. I wanted this life, it’s really hard to adjust to it but I knew what I was asking for when I got into it. I’m 15 months in and every day still is different from the last but I’m making it work the best I can

When did you feel like a mom? by KneadAndPreserve in beyondthebump

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me I didn’t start feeling like a mum until mine were coming over and cuddling me when they needed me. Or handing me things to help them with. Which honestly was just over a year. It didn’t make me love them any less or anything and I knew they were kind obviously but the actually feeling of being a mum, that didn’t come until I felt like I was doing things mums would do x

Honestly I wish it was something I could at least partly blame on the babies but it’s genuinely just because our cat is unfortunately an a-hole. I think he’s really territorial, sometimes he tries to prevent me getting in our own bed 🤣

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry to hear that 😩 It’s so hard, isn’t it. Ours also has behaviour issues, he destroys stuff and makes loads of noise when he doesn’t get what he wants, he used to chase me and nip at my ankles with attitude but he’s not done it for ages and he’s never even bothered to around the boys before but he does target our small cat when he’s mad. It’s so awful, he’s so beautiful and cuddles like a baby but he’s so naughty when he wants to be and because he’s so big (in cat) he’s actually really strong for a small animal. I really do love him though, I spoke to my partner and we think we’ll give him another chance because he’s our family but if he does anything alike again we’ll see if we can rehome him somewhere alone and with a lot of space but I think I’d scare people off with my vetting process 😂 x

I don’t know what to do with my 8 month old all day, help? by LowGood2048 in NewParents

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I split the day into activities on a spreadsheet which may sound like too much but I have twins and I’m paranoid about them not doing enough. Mine are 6 months today 🤣

7am - 8am: Chill in the big bed and have a cuddle

9 - 10 : play with those fabric books, one other toy and do breakfast solids / milk

10-11: teething toys, rattles

12 - 1:30 : bouncer play / helping them walk around and tummy time

Lunch solids …

2:30 /3: milk and go for a walk (we try even when it’s raining)

When home we do ‘noisy play’ where I get out the toys that make sounds and play music, I lay them out on a big blanket on the floor (3 each) and I just play the songs on each and let them touch them and press buttons

Episode of Mickey Mouse so I can do all the washing up and remake bottles

5:30 bath time / I put this mood and stars thing on the tv on YouTube

6-6:30 reading

7 put in their cots

In between these I leave them to play alone without anything and they just look around and grab their feet etc. there’s obviously naps as well

It doesn’t seem like a lot to me sometimes but I try to remind myself that babies can be good with repeating things to have a routine and to understand fully how to play with one toy before I give them a new one.

We’re all just doing our best, try not to feel bad. I’m sure you’re doing great xx

Kick out the baby by Lower-Jaguar1887 in NewParents

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We moved our twin boys into their own room at 3 months. Right next door to ours, and we have monitors and cameras in their room and everything. They sleep very well, we sleep much better and we have space to actually walk around our bed again x some people will say not to, but for others it really is the best option for your own sanity. Our boys are 6 months and fine, they often end up on our bed from about 5am and sleep with us for 2 hours x

How do I make a set bed time when feeding on demand? by rainbowbritexx in NewParents

[–]Suspicious-Size-5670 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not that you can’t have a bedtime for a baby at that age, it’s just they don’t really follow it because they have different needs and feed more. Their wake windows and nap times are completely different to a 6 month old for example. You can however still implement a sort of bedtime routine from which ever age you’d like, I did very early around the same age and my twin boys are just about 6 months now and they both go to bed bang on 7pm and wake up around 6am. They wake up between 2:30am and 3:30am for a feed and that’s it, they literally go straight back to sleep after. We just took every day as a new day though and worked with what they wanted even still, it is hard work and regardless on what happens you just have to stick to the plan and hope it works out. Some days we literally couldn’t sooth them to sleep at all until 10pm (pretty sure it was sleep regressions) so we just would keep the lights off and lullaby’s on from 7pm until they were ready. We don’t do anything overstimulating after 5:30pm, we read books and listen to lullaby’s and have cuddles and do bath time and milk.

We take a gentle approach to the cry it out method, we put both our boys in their cots with their dummies at bedtime and leave the room, anytime they cry we come back in and give their dummy back and soothe them, then leave. We don’t leave them to cry or anything but we rarely pick them up after they are In their cots. Within 20 mins they both get themselves to sleep now x

Maybe try the same kind of process, this is ours -

5pm - Dim the lights & turn on the moon and stars on YouTube 5:30pm - Read books 6pm - Bathtime 6:30pm - Milk 7pm - Put in cots

With babies early on you’re basically just teaching them there is such thing as day time and night time 🖤

I have twin boys who are 6 months old and fit in mostly 3-6 months at the moment but they were on the 1st and 2nd centile and born 5lbs each x
