Body coach
Has anyone done Joe wicks body coach plan? I’m 8 months pp with my second and breastfeeding and not sure whether to give it a go. I’m worried about the time to prep the meals and then making different meals for my kids etc.

I started following the bodycoach years ago and love it. They have recipes which are family friendly which could be suitable for kids so you don’t have to make a separate meal. But they also have a create your own section so you could mail meals from there too. There’s a week free trial I believe so you don’t have to commit.
I did it after my first pregnancy and think it has it's place. I personally found alot of the food really bland but enjoyed some of his salads and breakfast stuff, and just added spices to everything else. It was good for inspiration though. However, you can just plan your own calorie deficit.
I did find the workouts got a little long after a few months as I had no childcare but I did lose weight
Thanks both - I’ll have a look at the free trial then and see if I think it’s sustainable at the moment

Not doing enough?!
Does anyone else feel like they are not doing enough with their baby? Mine is 5 weeks old today and as an example I’ve just got him in his cot with no visual stimulation as I’m trying to get him to nap but it’s been like 30 mins and he’s still awake and I’m thinking - is he bored?! But I just want a lil nap for him so I can get a couple bits done! I find the days go by in such a blur and by the end I feel guilty that I didn’t give him enough “play time” with like black and white sensory things or visual stimulation. I’m worried I’m setting him up for failure at only 5 weeks old looool. Please tell me I’m not the only one!

Baby slept all night 🌙🥳
Baby is 11 weeks tomorrow, and he slept through the whole night for the first time last night (in his own bed!) 💙
His dad and I were cheering and celebrating this morning!
Let's hope this is just the beginning of sleeping like this and not just a one-off 🤞

Eye tracking and looking at hands
Hiya, my little one is 4 weeks old and isn’t yet tracking with his eyes or looking at his hands. He has just started to look at our faces but only for a few seconds then just looks around the room or past us. Anyone else’s buba like this?

Would you correct someone else’s pronunciation for your child? How do you feel about regional/international accents?
I bumped into a mother I know at a coffee shop. I have an unusual accent, because I’m ESL and I immigrated to the UK when I was 14 so I picked up a lot of london pronunciations but I don’t generally have trouble being understood.
Her son doesn’t have any speech issues or anything, he’s got a great vocabulary for 4. He is very friendly so he talks to me when we see them at the park or soft play, and he always seems to understand me.
I was speaking to my child in English and then suddenly I realised the other mother was correcting words I said for her son? I asked my daughter “do you want some water?” which I guess is like dyu wan some wata if I just say it quickly without thinking, and she said quite loudly “we would say WA-TER, do you WANT some WATER” and made him repeat it back twice.
Other words I heard her correct were cloth and cheeky girl, then I started to get self conscious and making an effort to enunciate better. I was so embarrassed, she was speaking quite loudly so she must have known I could hear her. But I like my accent, it still sounds a bit like where I come from. I don’t mind if my daughter hears it and learns it, my heritage is her heritage. We only see this woman occasionally (she’s a bit condescending so I try to avoid play dates) so I doubt my accent is rubbing off on her son.
It’s been a couple days and this is still sitting with me. It feels so out of line to do that in front of the person unprompted. As long as people understand each other, does it matter?
