@monkeym24 My kid is going to “graduate” pre-school and go to primary school in September. He’s very excited for his graduation as they’ve been practicing songs and dances for it for ages. In the UK the only thing you usually graduate from is university. Not high school, not primary school...

@benromana In the UK it is considered safe sleep to have a blanket in the crib, as long as it is well tucked in, baby has their feet at the bottom of the crib and the blanket comes up to their armpits (so they can’t wriggle down under it). If you’re ok with that then that might do until you can...

@bernard222 I've not been on it, but from what I read when I was researching birth control options, no bleeding when taking YAZ is really common. I tried a lower dose progesterone only pill, and ended up with totally weird periods I couldn't predict and gave up on pills altogether. From my...

@gupta Hubby and I really aren't partying or drinking people, and pretty much everything we do I can imagine being able to take a kid too. We did however go to Japan on our honeymoon as that was the only place on our list of big holiday places I couldn't envisage taking a child to!

@andraus We're also in the 'babies won't massively affect our trips' camp, sure maybe we'd have to stay in one place and not do multi site holidays, but everything else would be fine. Also the UK isn't going to be too baby unfriendly, unlike taking a 3 week trek through the alps or something!

@johnnyleon Thankfully the european space agency is separate to the EU, (infact Canada is in ESA, and obviously not at all in the EU) It may impact getting ESA projects which are also EU funded, but who knows!

@greg1911 Thankyou, they are pretty cool, though wanting such niche jobs means we are very limited on places to live! My husband actually works from home for the company he worked for in our old city on the other side of the country!

@bernard222 I'm 28 and my husband is 29 We've been together 4 ish years no, married for nearly 2. I work as a contractor for the european space agency, mostly responsible for development and maintenance of an earth observation satellite data processor. Husband works in R&D for a weather...

@onlycurious My husband comes for easter and christmas, and thats about it. Which is fine, his beliefs are his own, but I do get a bit sad sometimes. I'm not massively overt about my faith, so other than maybe some kids bible story books and attending church I don't think I'd do more than that...

@onlycurious Ooh another mixed religious and not couple, I swear I sometimes feel very lonely as the only woman without her husband at church. Plus yay for computer related jobs :)

@j2049 I sometimes used to just chill with baby and lie on the floor next to him. Sometimes I’d drift off to sleep, ah those were the days…

@lindalee1456 You keep the top tier for the first kids christening, traditionally. But we probably will go for a dedication or something, but still keeping the cake. And we've been in our house nearly a year and still not hung pictures, bought frames months ago...

@bernard222 We moved to a new city for me to start my job, and I wanted to be in the job and city at least a year before we started trying. About a year now since acknowledging we'd like to have children sooner rather than later. In January (so our 3rd wedding anniversary) or earlier depending...
