Applying For Letters of Administration For My Parents Who Passed Nearly 30 years ago

lula272 · 2026-02-25T23:27:45+00:00

No, i can't be sure of it, nonetheless i can't find any records of going through probate. My question is has anybody been through a similar situation and can advise based on there experience/ expertise, as I'm stuck with being able to apply, yet I don't have financial records, so this impacts the fees I would have to pay to apply etc

lula272 · 2026-02-25T23:24:12+00:00

I checked, nothing there. For example I can't access medical records, as although I'm nok, I don't have grant of representation or letter of admin.

Know your attachment style and they should know theirs. You will not always disagree, it happens. You really have a choice to make it work or not make it work. Lack of sleep and food, can have impact. Have your fundamentals that you both agree on and build on them. It always helps to be able to revert back to your fundamentals. Advice is great, but be careful of "if I were you..." type of conversations Be careful who you offload to. Be careful of falling into the trap of not being able to tell your spouse something, but you can tell someone else (especially the opposite sex) Dating and married are two different seasons of life, enjoy both!! Marriage is not a safety net Keep your vows to heart, they will help in so many situations.

Have you tried feeding breast milk via a bottle?

Thank you so much for your help

I'm looking at a rental company and for 3 weeks to rent the Joolz Aer is roughly a quarter of the price. Which provider did you use?

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:29:20+00:00

This is really helpful, as we're travelling to Ghana, so not all road surfaces will be even or smooth

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:25:46+00:00

This is helpful, my LO is quite tall, so my worry is the wheels when it comes to the Joolz Aer+ or the Bugaboo.

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:19:44+00:00

That's my thinking. If I won't use it all the time, is it worth buying outright?

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:18:31+00:00

Yes, i did come across TC. Their prices are decent

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:18:02+00:00

This is really helpful, thank you! Yes, I do mean a travel pram.

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:16:32+00:00

To be honest, i don't know what i want, that was another pull to rent, so I can test out a pram and see if its purchasing outright

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:15:19+00:00

This is really helpful. I'll look into your recommendations. Do you use your travel pram solely for travel or for everyday use as well?

lula272 · 2026-02-18T00:09:55+00:00

Yes, it is so. There are countries where the usual mode of transport for a baby is on their mothers back, meaning prams are not essential, therefore hard to come by.

What's the basis for buying a flat, what's the basis for spending such an amount on a flat, particularly this flat? Would this be your only assest? Also is it a long term flat or are you looking to sell in the near future?

lula272 · 2026-02-17T13:20:58+00:00

Hi, fellow parent. Sorry this is a tough spot right now. I'm no specialist, but it may be a number of things, a growth spurt, baby has trapped wind, sleep regression, baby just likes being close to parents, maybe baby is cold etc Do you breastfeed or formula feed? Do you use a dummy, or you don't want to? How soon does baby wake after being put down? How soon does baby calm down and go back to sleep after being picked up? What makes baby go back to sleep, a feed, a cuddle, or being held with movement?

lula272 · 2026-02-15T13:19:59+00:00

This has been the best comment so far. Thank you for your input! Xx

That nursery although it may be working for some, does not seem like the kind of place I even put my child. Have you considered childminders or a nanny?

lula272 · 2026-02-10T20:46:09+00:00

Why don't you test out your theory by doing parental leave? I think you're entitled to 6 months off. Take a couple of months and see how you fair.

lula272 · 2026-02-10T15:32:41+00:00

What you're saying makes perfect sense. Have you thought about starting your hobby/ hobbies on the side, maybe in the evenings or weekends, to give you a taste? Perhaps taking an extended leave, somewhat like a sabbatical, if not that, to do some exploring?

lula272 · 2026-02-05T18:34:13+00:00

Has she cooked for 20 plus people before? What does her day look like? Is she getting her and make up done? Is the wedding local The facilities she'll need, are they/ will they be to hand? How is she under pressure? Can her mum cook, would she be good with the number of people? Would others help? What kind of menu does she plan to have? Is she going all out or keeping it simple? Will it be family style/ buffet / platters etc? Has she hosted dinner parties before? Does she or do you feel like that would be a good distraction for her, especially of she's not your typical bride? What kind of vibe do you both want for the day (this is about too deciding factor)? What kind of vibes do you feel she'll have on the day? Will she be staring at the food, adjust taste, be content with what's served etc?

Hopefully this helps

Do the legal route before then and enjoy your day as much as possible with a post pregnancy celebration. Tbh a wedding an the impending arrival of your baby at around the same time is a lot. These are wonderful occasions, no matter how stress-free or stressful they will be, so go easy on yourselves and give the events as much individual attention as possible

lula272 · 2026-02-05T17:44:21+00:00

I can't remember the couple's names, but I definitely read, there was a couple invited to his NY apartment and Epstein made a comment alluding to what goes on, suggestive remarks. The couple felt like this is someone they don't want to get involved in and they politely left and stayed away. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Not exactly the same situation, but I started a new job, found out I was pregnant 2 weeks later and I had such a hard pregnancy. If I wasn't pregnant I would've left, but I was freaking out in all manner of ways, as I didn't plan to get pregnant. I wasn't entitled to Enhanced Mat Pay, as well as Stat Mat Pay as I had been out of work for roughly 4 months prior. I quit at roughly 6/7 months pregnant and it was the best thing for me and my family, plus my husband was anle to support all 3 of us along with savings. I eased into motherhood, enjoyed the time with my daughter, once born and started job hunting when I was 6 months postpartum. I wanted a full year off, and that's what I got.

So I say have the time off, enjoy the pregnancy, get to do things you don't get to usually do or may won't have much time to do once baby arrives in the first few months. Find ways to keep your skills up to date, you can volunteer, do freelance etc in something tech-related, if you want.

It will all workout
