Do you take pride in your nationality? Being of the country you were born and raised in

Not your ethnicity or race

Absolutely not 😭🤣

Never been a patriotic family really. Not flag wavers kinda people. Maybe if I felt more proud of my country then I would?

I’m Tanzanian & American (US) & I love both my nationalities. There are good & bad that comes from being, living or born in both countries; mainly cuz governments are corrupt asf. Bt nonetheless, I will be raising my son to be proud of his nationality as well not because of patriotism or nationalism bt just in a sense that he understands that he basically had no control over were he was born or lives cuz he had no control over that bt I hope he can still find the “good” & find a sense of pride. Even if it’s for sporting events etc.

Growing up I did. It used to be a beautiful, diverse and amazing country to be proud of. It has been ruined and we are trying our hardest to leave 💔

Up until recently the British was only being proud of being British during football or something to do with the royal family. Considering the state of the place I dont know why people have suddenly become so much more patriotic

Always been proud to be Polish, even more so after living in other countries

I’m reasonably proud of being British in the sense that I love British humour and the people. But in a wider sense in terms of politics etc, maybe not so much.

I want to say yes, but some of the changes in Sweden lately makes me a bit embarrassed to be swedish.
I miss feeling proud to be swedish, to come from a nation known for equality and acceptance ❤️🇸🇪
The racist party keeps talking about making Sweden swedish again by removing all immigrants.
Sure, celebrating midsummer and listening to ABBA is swedish, but its symbolism. Being swedish to me is to care about each other, to help and to pay for each other's happiness. That Sweden I'm proud of!

In a land back sort of way, yeah.

I adore that I was born on turtle island!
I find America’s history fascinating in a morbid way.

But I don’t think I’d say I am a proud American or a patriot.

Only during the Olympics 😆🤦🏽‍♀️

I love being French 🇫🇷 I might be living abroad now but every time I go back I have the best time. Great food, great lifestyle, beautiful country. Powerful passport to have as well so travelling is easy. Obviously, it is very far from being perfect but it is home. Love my country and miss it

Telling work your pregnant

Hi all! - sorry in advance this is a complete ramble and probably is ridiculous

Second time mum here with a slightly silly story but wanted some encouraging advice as I am an over thinker

I have obviously just found out I’m pregnant me and my boyfriend have been together for 3 years we met in work and chose to keep our relationship private due to my position in work he left the company earlier this year

I started dropping hints a few months ago that me and said person where going on dates etc to try and get it out there as I didn’t want anybody to see us out having dinner or drinks or whatever
And now I have to tell them I’m pregnant obviously not straight away but at some point and I’m so worried what the responce will be! As they think we have only been seeing each other a few weeks. Also my oldest daughter (from previous relationship) has recently started school and I had to change my hours to accommodate drop off and pick up due to being the only parent who can do this I’m worried my boss will be funny with me now as I advised I was on my own but now I’m pregnant and have a new partner (obviously my current partner works too and can’t pick her up or drop her off) am I worrying over nothing?

Who has access to the finances at home?

Do you take full control of the finances and making the budget? Do you and your partner sit down together and discuss the budget/finances? Or does your partner have full control and you have no access?

UTI / E.Coli Infection

Has anyone’s babies specifically under 6 months, faced a UTI issue or diagnosed with an E. coli infection?

Would love to hear any experiences your babies have gone through or the type of medication they were put to cure.

Any grunting that happened to your babies before they were diagnosed for it?
