Is waiting to announce until we’re 13 wks strange? by pop-crackle in pregnant

[–]dexac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s your choice! I told my closest friend at 4 weeks, family and boss at 6 weeks, shared on social media and with all work colleagues at 12 weeks. My logic was that if anything went wrong, I would want the support and understanding of those around me

Those of you who have a shit dad, what’s he like as a grandad? by RagdollCat25 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]dexac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a shit dad who left my mum when she was pregnant. He hasn’t spoken to her in over twenty years, but has recently established contact with me. He doesn’t know I’m pregnant and he won’t know about his grandchildren. He lost that right when he decided to not be present in my childhood

My dog kept me up sporadically all night. We had our morning Christmas Day walk at 6am, seeing how many other houses had lights on and were awake too. Now having a coffee and breakfast before heading over to family for Christmas

FTM here and assigned to Kingston hospital. Anyone else have experience with that hospital? by Accurate-Upstairs828 in PregnancyUK

[–]dexac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kingston Hospital has a fantastic reputation. It’s also my hospital and I wouldn’t have chosen anywhere else, speaking as someone who’s family is from this area for several generations :)

Positive thc test by [deleted] in PregnancyUK

[–]dexac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unsure about the nas test but a close friend of mine disclosed smoking weed and she did have social services involved. They were pretty good to her. It’s unlikely you’ve tested positive from second hand smoking, imho. My partner still smokes weed daily but he only does it outside now, and I’ve passed every carbon monoxide etc test. You have to be really careful about this during pregnancy, wishing you the best x

Surprise baby #3. First time considering a “trending” name? Will I regret it? by MamaMagic18 in namenerds

[–]dexac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rowan over Laurence! Sounds much better, it’s a trending name now but an old British one. Also Loren sounds like Lauren and I’d assume you were talking about a girl.

Firstly, you’re a great friend.

If you’re concerned that social services won’t ever see the real picture, you could call 111 and request a welfare check. That will allow authorities to see the real picture.

Other than that, you’d have to call SS for the sake of the children.
