The place we go has baby chairs you can pop them in (if they're old enough of course) - I just shower us both when we get home afterwards to avoid the faff!
Just rinse with baby in arms and have a proper wash at home
We just stand under the shower, I get myself dressed and then my little one, i take a little as possible in to swimming
I just rinse us both. I wrap baby in a towel and put on a pull up nappy as it's easier then I put loose sleepsuit on them and dry myself and go
I just rinse us both off, shower/bath properly at home that night.
We literally just quick rinse in the showers and get dressed then bath at home to avoid the faff

Best car seat for a 1 year old but also future babies?
I currently have the Joie i360 spin that’s on the isofix and can’t be removed. Absolute bane of my life switching it between cars because it’s soooo heavy and the seatbelt straps are constantly twisting. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone! We’re now in need of a second car seat for nursery drop offs and pick ups so I finally get to fob this car seat off to my partner who will use it less and I want a new one for my car lol.
Would anyone recommend their car seat that’s suitable for 1 year old (and preferably for a long time as want to be sustainable and not constantly replacing things) but that’s also suitable/recommended from newborn up too as would like to keep for baby number 2 in the next couple years. TIA
Photo of cute baby feet in said car seat so post hopefully doesn’t get lost lol.

How long did you rest?
How long did you rest after a straight forward vaginal birth?
(Asking for this birth as I know c-section/complications require a different level of recovery).
I’m interested to know how quick you returned to household chores and general ‘mumming’ following birth of baby.
I love the idea of the 5-5-5 (5 days in bed, 5 days on the bed, 5 days around the bed) for rest, but I’m curious to know if anyone actually stuck to this or something similar, or if guilt got in the way!

I want a second child relatively soon because of my age but I'm worried I won't be able to cope
I am an Aunty to many children mostly 10 and upwards now so I've cared for many babies and children but having my first child (who is almost 1 and I am turning 38 soon), I have just found it quite full on. Newborn days were a breeze but as days have gone on I guess with lack of sleep post 8 months I feel like it's impacting my mental health and I think these three meals a day and caring for everybody and lack of sleep. I don't know if I can do this all over again for another child. I want to be one and done but I want him to have a sibling so when we are no longer here he has someone not just his cousins.
Let me preface this by saying I know everyone's circumstances is different but I just wondered if anyone else felt similar before going on to have more children and coped OK?
