When do you worry about reduced movements?

28+6

I was in with my first a lot, but I’m unable to this time due to childcare.

If I was to go it has to be after 4pm when my husband is home.

Bubs moved very faintly and not a lot yesterday. But I was mega busy and I do not feel her unless I’m laid down not doing anything and I didn’t get much chance to sit down yesterday.

I’ve told myself I’ll give until 4pm today to see if she will have a proper wiggle as it takes about an hour to get there via bus as I don’t drive.

Just wondering if anyone else has been in this situation.

Is there a 12 month sleep regression? 😭

Had such a rough night with my little boy last night and I honestly don’t know what was going on.

He’s 1 next week.

He woke up at 1am screaming. I gave him a cuddle and he settled back to sleep pretty quickly. He’s slept through since 6 weeks old, so waking in the night is really unusual for him. He’s currently on 3 bottles a day but I’m planning to drop to 2 tomorrow (morning and bedtime bottle).

Then at 2:30am he woke up again absolutely hysterical. I thought maybe teething pain, so I gave him something to chew on, some Calpol, and even one of my teddy bears because I thought my scent might comfort him 😂

He went back down for about 20 minutes and then the screaming started again.

By that point I was completely delirious because I’m heavily pregnant and already struggling to sleep with baby constantly in my ribs. I ended up putting him in our bed and he fell asleep instantly.

Just wondering if anyone else experienced this around 11–12 months? Was it teething, separation anxiety, regression, or just a random bad night?

[REQ] £30 for food shopping. [REPAY £35 on 18th May] (Paypal)

Hi,

I need some help getting some fruit/meals in for my little boy as I’ve just ran out. I get paid on 18th so can send back then. I’m okay eating same thing over and over but I don’t want him to be going without.

I have been in and out of hospital all month with my second pregnancy and it’s taken all my money as I rely on public transport.

Thanks in advance.

I am pregnant with my second child, my first is 1 next week. I have been having some pregnancy complications and due to this it has eaten into my food shopping money for the month as I don’t drive I have to take multiple buses to the hospital several times a week. I have no one else to turn to and I’m not eligible for a food bank referral, or any crisis loans from UC.

I am happy to share verification once you can show you are a 100% legit lender, I’m cautious about my address being out there when I have young children. Hope you understand.

It appears that the river has been drained in this area where it has been de-culverted, but I am curious as to what they have done with the river flow? It must have been diverted somehow, as you can't really stop a river, so anyone know how they have done this? The Sheaf is a fairly big river so does it has another tributary before it flows into the Don? Or have they 'piped' it somewhere else.

(Re upload due to Rule 7 I’ve taken my interest off)

Hello,

I am currently pregnant with baby number 2. I am developing some severe pregnancy complications, preeclampsia, I’ve been threatened with pre term labour too.

Because of this, I’ve been in and out of hospital and that’s used up my food budget for the rest of the month. I don’t drive, so I’ve had to get buses.

I have a 1 year old this month, me and my husband at home.

He works, we are on UC too, I have tried taking out a budgeting advance with universal credit but they advised no due to the circumstances.

Happy to provide proof of income (bank statements etc) ID, I hate to ask as I do feel guilty I don’t like going into hospital at all and leaving my little boy.

Happy to answer any questions asked. I’m an open book.

Hi all, looking for some advice on a situation with my landlord as I’m feeling quite overwhelmed.

We recently had a outside blocked drain at our rented property. I reported it at the time I noticed it, but my landlord was away in America at the time and it wasn’t dealt with for over 2 weeks, he had no cover in the uk during that time. During that time, we had the council on our bums constantly chasing us. I tried manually unblocking it myself and with drain unblocker. The issue obviously didn’t improve.

Now he’s come back, arranged for it to be cleared, and is saying the blockage was due to “food waste/grease” and is charging me £48 for the call-out. He’s also said he’ll just add this onto next month’s rent.

There is a clause in the tenancy about tenants being responsible for blockages caused by misuse, but I don’t feel it’s fair to just assume it was us, especially as some build up could have happened over time, and it was left unresolved for quite a while while he was away.

I’m also unsure if he can legally just add this onto the rent like that without agreement?

For context, I have a young baby, I rely on one income, and I’m currently pregnant, so this whole situation is causing me quite a bit of stress.

Does anyone know:

\- Can landlords add charges like this directly onto rent?

\- What kind of proof should they need to show it was our fault?

\- How would you handle this situation?

Thanks in advance for any help.
