Birth partners?
Im thinking about my birth i know its a while away yet but part of me wants my mum there with me as well as my partner but when i mentioned this to my partner he didnt say anything but i could tell he wasnt keen and seemed like he doesnt want that. Whats people opinions? Should i say something? Do i give him a say in it when im the one giving birth??

Its your choice my lovely
It’s completely your choice who you want there. If you need your mum, no he shouldn’t get a say. BUT if your mum being there is going to make him act awkward and effect his ability to support you, that’s something to also take into consideration
Your choice!
Having mum there will be so so helpful! I don’t think I could’ve done it without her needed her more than I needed my partner lol

Car seats
What the fuck is that.
Looks like no seat belt, just some bar thing, and a kid that’s small enough to be rear facing in a forward only car seat?? Someone tell me there’s more to this and it’s not as crazy as it looks

Plane seat purchase
Why are we having to pay extra for seats?! I really can't afford to add any more on to the expense. So I'm going to check in, and hope we are next to each other. We are a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 children.
How likely is it that we will be split - and staff care enough to give seats together? Please let me know if this has happened to anyone. I really can't be adding £300 more just for tickets.

Breastfeeding or screaming - no in between
When it comes to our late afternoon and evening feeds, we seem to hit the same problem; he just won’t unlatch! Baby boy is 5 weeks and will just chew on my nipple, I assume to soothe, and if I ever try to take him off he screams. He’ll even be falling asleep and still hates it, and then won’t sleep at all!
Any one experienced something similar and know how to work around this? I’m sore and need a small bit of my evenings back!

Sleep training tips
Can anyone share how you sleep trained your babies without letting them cry it out? My LO is currently almost 5 months but absolutely refuses to fall asleep on his crib on his own.

Period has come back!
To my surprise my period came back today!😠Little bit concerned as I’m only 8 weeks post c-section and my baby is breastfed other than 2 feeds at 8pm and 12pm. Has anyone else got their period back yet? I was expecting another good few months!

Snoring
How do I stop a man snoring so I can actually sleep for once please. If he goes to sleep first I am fucked essentially. I’m so fed up I’m exhausted. He’s so loud it’s concerning but the doctor just keeps saying take antihistamines ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ yeah we’ve tried them dumb nose strips and all that stuff. Im also pregnant so the exhaustion is just hitting extra hard, I can’t cope with my toddler on one hour of sleep again after he’s left for workðŸ˜
