I’m feeling as though no one will employ me when my lo goes to school. Can’t even think straight no idea how I’ll get through interviews. Worried I’ve deskilled myself completely.

If you can't get interviews or an offer on your own right away you can get started by using a temp agency. They take a cut of what you'd make, but once you have some recent experience and references it's much easier to break back in on your own. It's also fairly likely one of the companies you work for might want to hire you directly after you've been there a while. I'm also terrible at interviews, so for me it helped to just get started. It seems daunting, but you'll do great. I think it helps to get a female boss. Good luck! 🍀

It’s my birthday and I have no friends.

It makes me so sad. It’s so hard to keep up with a full time job, my son, the endless tasks, my relationship, my ill parents, no village, no help. I had a close best friend I grew up with, but she went through a major life change in the past year and hasn’t been the same for a while.

It’s hard to feel insignificant when I feel alone so often. It’s hard to see others have friends and people they can be themselves around. I want it so badly.

Just a tearful vent. Thank you if you have taken the time to read it.

How can I leave

Few months ago I found out my fiance cheated on me during my pregnancy and even after not even a month after I had my second baby with him. I really don’t think I can stay with him after this betrayal during my most vulnerable time when I should be enjoying motherhood and my babies. I just don’t know how to leave for good. I keep pushing and pulling and I’m scared I’m going to regret my decision if I leave him. Does this get better? How can I feel confident in my decision to leave? 💔😔

Flying when 24 weeks pregnant

Hi all, looking for some tips and advice. I need to fly for work to Germany so short haul with Lufthansa.

Am wondering if anyone else flew around this time and whether you were ok without a fit to fly note? I won't need one as I'll be before 28 weeks but wondering if anyone had difficulty proving this with the airline?

Don't want to pay for a private NHS fit to fly letters (my GP doesn't do them!) when I don't need one but also worried they won't believe me that I'm only 24 weeks (I'm quite big as it's my second!).

Did you notify the airline in advance? Wondering if I need to for any help with my bag or is this done at check in, or not done at all!

Any advice appreciated! Many thanks.
