Shared middle names?

I like the idea of my 2 kids sharing a middle name, but my husband can’t get on board!
My little girl has a unisex middle name so this would work for our little boy due next month

C section tomorrow

I have my c section scheduled for tomorrow. I’m scared and excited at the same time. I don’t know if I’m missing anything to do before the operation.

I had an emergency c section in January of 2025 with my first baby boy and am now going to have a scheduled c section with my second baby boy in February of 2027 due to my hospital not doing VBACs. I originally wasn’t worried because I knew it was coming this time and I know what to expect. But now that I’m 6 months pregnant I’m scared again. The recovery was rough for me and now worrying about being there for my 2 year old is causing a lot of mom guilt I think. Any moms out there that have any advice or reassurance would be greatly appreciated 😅.

First pregnancy & it’s twins!

Hello I just found out today that I’m pregnant with twins! I’m so shocked and overwhelmed. I had an ultrasound around 3 weeks ago that showed only 1 yolk sac baby.
For my peace of mind I went to an ultrasound clinic today and not only did I see & hear babies heartbeat but now there’s 2 babies!!!!!!

I’m confused how my doctor missed the second baby, and I think I need to find a new doctor.

I need advice & tips, I’m very excited but also very scared.

This is my first ever pregnancy & I just so happened to get twins 🥺

I did have a dream a few weeks ago about having twins but I didn’t think my dream would come true 😭

Urgent advise needed please

I had a connecting flight that I missed at Istanbul sabiha gokcen airport. I got off my domestic flight and had walked and run to the international departures gate, and yet it was closed when I got there. It took soo long because the security lines and passport control lines were so so long! And then my gate was 2 floors down at the very far end. I also had baggage and a stroller, so I had to find the lifts and there would be queues of wheelchair users. After every attempt to get to the gate literally out of breath, it was closed. Maybe missed it by 5 minutes. I found the airline agent desk and they said I need to pay for new tickets which me and several others refused. He then said we would get a refund. I arrived in the UK and made a complaint and asked for my money to be reimbursed as the agent had said. However, customer service are refusing to refund me.
What can I do? Has anyone else been to this airport? How was your experience there? Has anyone else missed a connecting flight? What did you do? I just dont know what to do anymore. The cost of the flights was almost equal to my entire holiday!

Hipp organic for reflux

I've been recommended by a midwife to try switching to hipp organic formula to help with reflux (already following usual guidance around paced feeding, keeping upright, etc). Aware that too much chopping and changing can make things worse so just wondering if anyone has any experience of whether this made any difference (good or bad) or not?
