Julia Donaldson Party

Hi all, I’m throwing a Julia Donaldson party for my soon to be one year old but finding it hard to find decorations etc!

I have a sign, banner, zog and Gruffalo cupcakes and of course a cake! Also going to bring some books and toys to display.

Just wondered if anyone has done anything similar and could share any ideas?

I know he won’t remember but I want to make it amazing. We aren’t renting a soft play we’re just buying a slide set and a ball pit etc so my son can use them at home! So I just to make sure the theme pops so I can take lots of pictures and show him when he’s older!

How did you get rid of your c section shelf?

Example what workouts (bonus points if you have the video links!)
What creams to help with scarring? Or just firming up the shelf

Gross: Medical question 💩

Okay I’m so sorry lol. I have an appointment coming up but wondering if there’s anything I can do in the meantime. When I go to the bathroom I wipe and wipe and wipe and it takes foreverrr to come back clean. I even use wet wipes to really make sure it’s clean. But a few hours later if I go pee I find that there’s STILL stool when I wipe. I also have this flap of skin (?) down there. No pain or anything & I did have hemorrhoids during pregnancy but this doesn’t itch. Any idea what this is? Like I said, I have an appointment coming up but this is really bothering me!!!!

Leaving baby during day/overnight

I saw a post on here recently where someone was saying they haven’t left their baby with anyone yet. I regularly have my parents or my partners parents have my baby for a morning or afternoon and I’ve already left him overnight twice - once for a wedding and once to go to a gig. I know I’m in a very lucky position to have both sets of grandparents live locally and that can help. But I wonder if it’s unusual that I’ve already left him a few times compared to other people?! Curious to know if anyone else has left their baby over night yet?

Exhausted

Is anyone else just exhausted, I haven’t slept longer than 4 hours in 4 months. Sometimes it feels like your doing something wrong when you hear baby’s sleeping all night
