Birthday party

I’ve been thinking about my daughters birthday party but I’m struggling to even make a decision about when to do it.
I’d love to invite some friends from nursery but her birthday is right in the middle of August so parents forgetting and not coming is high which I don’t blame them haha. She’ll be turning 4.
Has anyone got any ideas on the best way to do this?

Bleeding while you pregnant…

I'm six weeks pregnant with my second child. At the beginning of the pregnancy, I had some light spotting. At five weeks, I had an ultrasound and a blood test for hCG levels. The ultrasound showed a bleeding wound, but it doesn't affect pregnancy. My hCG increased by 169% in two days. After all these tests, I no longer saw blood on the toilet paper after going to the bathroom. Then yesterday, I had a little difficulty going to the bathroom, and after that, I saw a small amount of blood on the toilet paper again. Nothing today. I'm going for an ultrasound on Friday, but I'm still uneasy. Has anyone else had this?

Growth scan at 34 weeks

Hi, I went to the midwife yesterday and have been referred for an urgent growth scan as baby has dropped from the 90th to 40th percentile over the last three measurements. Has anyone experienced this? So stressful 😔

Bad back

Is anyone else's back in absolute shambles? Both my upper back and lower back where my tailbone is, is constantly aching and it hurts to rotate and move sometimes 😅

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!

What spelling is better for our boy

Me and my partner are trying to decide what spelling is best for our boy so people don’t butcher his name it’s pronounced (Kam-ar-ree)

Completely exhausted 5 months postpartum

My baby boy is 5 months old and even though he sleeps 10-12 hours a night and I usually get around 6-7 hours, I am still so exhausted and I have no idea why. Maybe the mental and physical toll of being a mum? Or vitamin deficiency? I have no clue, just tired of being exhausted
