    Mind f@&k

    @ellenaus 24+1 and I giggle every time I feel her kick. Can't believe she has good odds of surviving if she came out now, mind blowing. Hope she cooks for longer obviously but its a weight off my mind

    Starting a co-sleeping tradition - once a week

    @rengb121 So people who prioritise their kids sleeping separately will say no, because obviously the child may want to do it more often. But whether or not this is an issue is completely down to your family and priorities. From a science based perspective there isn't as much to say here as they...

    I feel like I'm exhausted and out of my depth here
