Number 2’s not here yet and oldest is having moments. I said I had to call the midwife (because they have to know who I’m speaking to every time) yesterday and I got “not againnnnnnn”. When we got home from reduced movements they were so boisterous with me, jumping on me, knees and elbows to the tummy and ended up in full meltdown. I totally understand why and my heart breaks for them but the “it’s ok to be worried but it’s not ok to hurt mummy” is not in the least effective.

I remember being in the baby bubble and thinking ‘why didn’t I do this sooner, I want to do it again straight away’ then getting further down the line wondering and if I could shove them back in there 😂
Ideally a bit closer gap would have been better, it feels crazy to be starting again, it just didn’t pan out that way but ngl, I’m glad they’re starting pre-school in Sept for both our sakes.

Yeah it honestly goes so quick!! I remember him being a newborn like it was yesterday. Now he’s so big. He weighs a tonne as well, ever since i’ve had the baby and I hold her all the time my 4 year old just looks and weighs like a teenager 🤣

We do 1 day nursery at the min and they’ll be doing every day mornings. I’d rather 3 full days tbh as 9-12 daily is a faff but I think the routine will do us good at least. We didn’t really follow one last time and everyone was outraged at that 😂
 
My little guy does 12-3 on a Wednesday and I find it so pointless he’s literally gone and back in no time. One min he’s gone and suddenly I have to walk back and get him again 🤣

This! I have dedicated plastic cup to wee in first. I took loads of the little pots home so it’s easier. All about the glamorous pregnant life!

help me everyone, I’m obsessively watching cleaning TikTok’s and want to scrub every inch of my house I’ve made a list of things to get from
B&M… But also I’m 36 weeks now, still working and knackered 😂
 
Thanks fruit ladies. I’ve got 2 size 0 on my free bottles so maybe I’ll use that and then the cold water steriliser and see how I get on with them and get some 1s. As you said there’s always prime.

For the wee samples, at home I use a gu pot. Hospital have funnels ☺️

I thought it was only me who spectacularly failed at weeing in those little pots at midwife and hospital appointments 😭🤣 I've got to a point where I preempt the failure and wrap both the pot and my hand in paper towels or loo roll first 😂

Because of TTC I’m a freakin pro at peeing in small things. Not to be too graphic but the key is to press it right up against yourself if that makes sense… 😅😅 it’s also good for pelvic floor strength to practice stopping and starting!

Probably shouldn't admit this but I recall it was quite late in life (I think late teens/ early 20s) when I realised that women have a different hole which we pee from!
