My daughter was officially 1 at 02:42am 🙊

We had a little party on Saturday afternoon, at our local pub who have a seperate room, I paid for some food, invited close family and friends and just took her toys - she had a blast! We had a few family members who will be working today but wanted to see her, so this seemed best way.

Later today we are doing breakfast and soft play with my mum and grandma, my friend and her daughter who is only a week older, then visiting my dad and grandad later in after noon. Something ive done to make her waking up feel special is a little birthday set up, ill try share picture now x

My baby turned 1 on Saturday
We had a Photoshoot and cake in the morning and then went into London to the aquarium and Korean barbecue. It was a loooong day, but she enjoyed it :)

12 Week Scan… Not the result I was hoping for

I had my 12-week scan today… well 12w 6d. The ultrasound tech said the baby was in a bad position and it was hard to see everything. The baby measured well at 13w 2d. Heartbeat was 152bpm. At the end the tech said that she would refer me to the hospital as her measurements picked up that one side of the heart was larger than the other… though she said it could just be that it was hard to tell with baby’s position. I’m a little anxious as I was hoping to see that everything is okay. Has anyone experienced this? Any helpful advice or hopeful stories? Thanks xx

I feel like I've fallen into a TV trap with my toddler

We did no screens up until I fell pregnant with baby number 2 and my only way to survive the sickness and fatigue was to allow 1 show per day. It started at 30 minutes now it's an hour and twice a day.

We get up at 7am have breakfast, get outside, attend a toddler class or playgroup then when we get home I let her watch nursery rhymes for 45 minutes whilst I make lunch. Then she eats, naps for 1 hour, wakes, we then play together, head outside again then she gets 1 hour around 4pm of tv whilst I cook dinner. Then she eats at 5pm and we go to the park after dinner before coming home for bath and bedtime routine, bed at 8pm.

I feel like it went from nothing to almost 2 hours per day quite quickly. Is this really bad?

She's almost 2.
