This is so true, I managed to get a few paragraphs written which felt like a nice break from the usual baby entertainment!

An old favourite and one I had reread many, many times. An incredible book on the colossal impact of trauma #thebodykeepsthescore

Definitely my own fault for having such high expectations! 😂

Another read especially relevant to my current circumstances as a first time mum to a 7 month old, but one I enjoyed and found useful and reassuring. Covers many of the big decisions parents must make in the first year (and beyond) with proper scrutiny of the available data #cribsheet

But is it worth selling the set now or waiting a few years? Maybe a film will come out and they will be worth even more? Or maybe it’s just a flash in the pan inflation? Who knows, I certainly don’t

Thank you so much!! Can’t wait to read your next book, midwife’s really are angels! 💖

Aptly, the first book I have read since the birth of my daughter. Really really enjoyed this & it also painstakingly illustrates the current struggles of NHS maternity care, some of which I experienced first hand very recently #hardpushed @leahhazard.bsky.social

Oh this is really cool and helpful! Thanks for passing on!

This is a very good point, as much as I raged afterwards it was definitely my fault for having the price too low 😂 can’t hate the player!

Ok it was all fun and games getting an emergency alert in the early evening but getting one at this time in the morning after JUST getting my 6 month old back to sleep after a two and a half hour night wake window starting at 1am??? A true test of my sanity

I was only admitted in the first place thanks to having meconium in my waters once they finally broke! Anyway there’s my wee rant for today. I know there was lots of discussion about #birthtrauma on X, would like to see it here too 🤛

I really do question the push towards “natural birthing” and staying at home for as long as possible. I was a complete green pathway until I wasn’t. If I didn’t get help when I did (if I was attempting a home birth for example or if I was admitted later) I would have died
comment in response to post
Lucky the care I received once I was finally admitted was amazing!! But why are women left to labour for days alone at home with no medical support? Then discharged so quickly? Of course it’s lack of funding and resources, but it really is appalling #birthtraumaenquiry

We have actually now taken the decision to purchase an AI pray detection cat flap because we cannot continue living this way 😭😭 #cats

Very much a choice on my part and one I wouldn’t change, but it definitely makes for a dull timeline

I do love vinted but the filter option for material is terrible and a lot of girlies have quite inflated prices imo…

Nothing like warm toasted mouse in the morning!

That is so comical!! They must have been so confused! I’ve heard of mice in toasters before, I’ll need to check ours! 😂😂
