Which cake is cuter for a 2 year olds birthday? I feel like 1 is more age appropriate but 2 might be nicer?

Her theme is Two magical and it's all unicorns (she loves unicorns)

Birthday outing

I want people's opinion on if this is a good idea or not

My son's birthday is next Month and I don't want to have a party. I did that the first 2 times and it was stressful so we thought we will take him to the zoo and if any of the family want to come they can meet us at the zoo. We won't be able to pay for their tickets but I don't know if that is rude.

Mucus Plug

I’m 38 weeks and I lost my mucus plug just now. Out of all three of my pregnancies, this is the only one where I have had this happen. How long usually after you lose it, does the labor process begin?

Early boutique ultrasound?

Did anyone opt for an early ultrasound at a boutique around 7-8 weeks?? This is our first pregnancy and I kinda just want to make sure everything looks okay so far. I have no reason to think anything is wrong! But our first ultrasound with our midwife isn’t until at least 10–11 weeks. Is it worth just waiting until baby is more developed anyway?

Do you celebrate the holidays with your kids?

This is a hard one for me because growing up I didn’t celebrate holidays. So now having children, I don’t know what to do. Should I celebrate them because everyone else they’re around with does it? Do I go about it based on my beliefs or do I allow them to to form their own beliefs around it and celebrate the holidays for them?

Ultimately, I just want them to be happy.

UCLH or Chelsea Westminster

Hi! Just 7 wks and need to choose hospital. Live in NW6 so within 20-30 min of both hospitals.

Reading a lot of review & totally overwhelmed with which to choose.

Any tips or recommendations welcome !

Growing so fast???

My son was born this February 2026 and he was 8lbs and 8 ounces. When he went for his 2 month shots appointment he was 14 lbs. he completely skipped newborn clothing and now that he is 3.5 months he is wearing 12 month clothing. Does anyone else have a baby growing very fast like this? When I had my daughter in 2009 she was much slower than this. It feels like he is fast forwarding.
