After researching, I went with Bump & Baby as some people said that NCT is quite outdated/old fashioned. I also prefer that Bump & Baby is mainly taught by HCPs/midwives, whereas that isn't the case with NCT. Bump & Baby also includes hypnobirthing and baby first aid, but NCT does not, and you would have to pay extra. You can search them in this app to see more reviews as others have talked about them

I did some research and I decided to go for Bump & Baby for the same reasons as Chloe!

Is it about £260 for B&B? I don’t know anyone who did those classes so your comments are helpful

I’m ngl I just do the free classes with the baby academy, there are some on there you can pay for but I just go with all the free ones they’re usually about 2 hours long

the one in my area comes up as £185

@Anna, yes, ours was £260 x

I went for Bump&Baby February sessions in Bedminster. I looked quite a lot and it looks very social and fun on top of being the cheapest I found (£185) 😊

Think price varies by area but bump and baby in London is £260 v £400 NCT. The dates and times suited us better for bump and baby as NCT was only offered as two full days over one weekend which I thought was too intense.

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣

I need an AI app recc to talk to.

I have no family. I have no real friends. Just one that I text. But she’s 8 years younger and isnt a mom. I genuinely don’t talk to anyone other than my partner and our toddlers. I’ve seen some people use AI? Or a chatgbpt? I dont know but if someone could suggest an app that I can just talk to… I would love to have a friend or something instead but this is probably for the best…
