Kirsten Palmer at pregnancy pod was incredible

Dr Teresa MacDonald at Epworth Hospital. Amazing doctor and amazing team. I had wonderful experience with every staff member there. No complaints at all

Thank you! Will definitely look both up - Think a female shift is what we need after being with a male 😅

I've gone with mei cheah x2 and liked her
really disliked waverley private hosp though

Dr. Prue Standen at st vincents private

She was amazing. I didnt have a "difficult" birth but it wasn't your normal waters break at home and you come in kind of birth and she was just amazing.

WOGS - located at the Royal Womens! Every single OB at the clinic is incredible 🤩🤩🤩

Discrimation at work due to pregnancy

Hi all, I have been facing discrimation at work after I told my manager I am pregnant and that I am going on a leave for 1 year.

Manager told me that he wants to get on a call with HR. I had no idea what to expect. Manager and HR and get on a call and they suddenly tell me out of nowhere that they think I am not performing well and that they would like to put me on a PIP. HR also gave me an alternative option of an exit package.

Does anyone know what the highest out-of-court settlement or exit package payout a company has ever made to a UK-based employee to resolve an employment dispute?

Its a very clear case of employement discrimation (backed with evidence), and it seems like under Equality Act 2010 - there is is no cap today.
With no cap being there, it could ho to any amount.

But Why?

I thought this app was for moms to connect and chat. I seen nothing but BORING and UNINTELLIGENT women. Bashing and hatred. Where is the love????

Frustrated

I truly see now why people get divorced after having a baby. I wish guys knew and understood what we got through physically, mentally and emotionally to bring a human into this world and then having to deal with a newborn

Feeling shit

I know this may sound silly but anyone just feel ‘ugly’ and not themselves. I try do my hair/skincare and get ready for the day but even so just feel and look Ughh. No clothes look flattering, even loungewear. It’s sad because I never take pictures of me and my baby and in my head I always say I’m going to but just never do. Feel like I need to get the perfect shot :( I see so many mums on Instagram/tiktok that look so well and get all these amazing photos with their little one and I just can’t.
