Can anyone confirm if I’ve understood this right? Due in May and a bit confused. We’re planning to send our baby to nursery from 9m. We’re due to be entitled to the 30 free hours as we’ll be working parents. It says you can apply from when baby is 23 weeks (which will be late oct for us). Then it says cut off t...

Is it me or is it hard to find friends on here? 😭 No one seems to message first and when I do, it’s just crickets. 😅

Noone in my community wants me alive. I went through more then many and no one even cares about my son either. I guess I was only meant to be raped, and traumatized for being born.

I'm either thinking he's just saying it and...

Saw a super divided post on instagram where a mom said “one thing I was not prepared for in motherhood was how often I’d pee in a cup in my car”. I’m not ashamed to admit it - I have done this. I was making a long haul trip alone with a one year old while heavily pregnant, it was 11pm, they were asleep and I was i...

Is it normal to have little to no sex drive at the end of pregnancy. I’m currently 37 weeks on the 8th and have had absolutely no sexual desire now. It’s slowly decreased over the past month or two. Is that normal? My fiancé has an extremely high sex drive and I feel bad cause i always say no but not only is it unco...

How do people find the money for deposits after the agreement term ends? Our car finance is coming to an end but we cannot afford the £18k balloon payment. We don’t have much in savings as it’s gone into our house, wedding, baby/mat leave. What do we do? We need a car.

Is anyone able to help me figure out where I can find how many weeks of pfl I have left? I returned to work soon after I gave birth. I know I have to use my pfl before my baby turns 1. I have taken a few weeks of it, but I am not sure how many weeks I have left. My baby’s birthday is soon so I would like to make sur...

Hi ladies, has anyone been prescribed hay-fever tablets? I’m already starting to struggle without mine. I usually just buy them over the counter March - October for hay-fever but they all say not to use in pregnancy and breastfeeding. I’m due to see midwife in a few weeks for 25 week appt but just wondered if anyone...

I’m regretting my decision to stay for now. I’m expecting my first child and thought it’d be wise to wait until baby is born before making a big decision to leave. My husband’s anger issues & constant competition with me has led me to questioning whether I want to be in this marriage in the long-term. I had an oppor...
