I know everyone’s skin is different but I’ve found good old Nivea seems to be working the best for my messed up mask face. Wearing PPE all day is really taking it’s toll. Sending love and supportive vibes to your wife.Thank you. I really appreciate that.

Sorry on another grunka...I’ve been BUSY Ok?! I realise every hospital is different but although ours have brought in restrictions in the last couple of weeks re: Covid they’ve not made any changes to the maternity stuff they reinstated eg partners going to scans and visiting during/post labour. Hoping your hospital follow suit/don’t make any changes. Really pisses me off how women have been/are expected to go through so much alone re: pregnancy/labour/post birth during the pandemic let alone how drastically it varies from hospital to hospital.Afternoon hausfraus. I missed Nigella on Saturday Kitchen so I’ll have to catch up later. So far we’ve watched The Addams Family and eaten a ton of party food. I’m on day two of dairy elimination to find out what’s irritating my IBS so much (TMI fraus) so I couldn’t eat any of the chocolate I’d bought
Can’t add much to the wine chat as I’m an uncultured swine and drink Strongbow if I’m at the pub. Sometimes I’ll get a Rekorderlig if I’m feeling FANCY.
Disappointed that a lockdown looks imminent. I have my 20 week scan on Tuesday which is the first time Mr NP is allowed to come with me so I’m hoping the rules don’t change before then. It’s also the first time we’ll be leaving the toddler without either of us and I feel more anxious about that than the scan!
Dread to think what a Google of moo goo would come back with...We have suddenly got this stuff called Moo Goo in the house.
LOTS of it and if I'm perfectly honest I have this almost overwhelming urge to taste it.
Don't look at me like that...
Only god can judge me!
It's a risky Google, I won't lie.Dread to think what a Google of moo goo would come back with...
I love this advice! Unfortunately I’ve told her not to get her phone out on the way home, as there’s been a spate of muggings around here. I’ll see how it goes at the end of this week. What I have told her is any grown up that makes her feel uncomfortable, or any unwanted bothering, she’s allowed to swear and shout as much as she wants. She was a bit thrilled at thatAs awful as we all find it at times.. Get your daughter and her chums to play loud music on their phones as they walk.
Not obnoxiously loud, just 'noticeably' loud.
People notice that. Even if it's just to tut or look out of a window.
Red shoes lacesJust caught up on Saturday Kitchen and dropping this screenshot for any other fans of Sir Matt of Forearms
Originally, just captured it because I'd noticed the red boot laces, honest!

Ah that's fitting as I think he put them in for the Halloween episode!Red shoes lacesthough I read some where that having red shoe laces meant you were a.... Murderer!!!!!
.... Or something???
Have you tried Vego spread?I can recommend vego and ichoc vegan chocolate. I'm not a huge dark chocolate fan, so when I need a milk chocolate hit, I usually go for vego. It's expensive but delicious.

Vego spread is a thing??? Oh my god! Need to get hold of some of that.Ah that's fitting as I think he put them in for the Halloween episode!

The smell of a candle burning the turnip was truly disgusting! I do remember having lots of fun making Halloween costumes from binbags in the 70s.As awful as we all find it at times.. Get your daughter and her chums to play loud music on their phones as they walk.

The people who could possibly be up to no good with young people walking home, don't want noticeable.
And pumpkins? Did anyone else not get a Swede as a kid?
You genuinely had to be Michelangelo or Barbara Hepworth to get anything out of them!
Hammers and chisels were needed!
loool your picture, why did she have to make that egg so DUSTY. I know I go on about birth all the time but think it's important to reassure women as we are continually forgotten by this government, even in the strictest of regulations I had a super positive c-section experience, and you will too I promise! If you want to discuss the ins & outs you're welcome to DM me as there's honestly nothing to fear! <3Thanks @EddieBeds. Our hospital trust hasn’t made any changes yet. Their website says they’re reviewing the guidelines tomorrow so I’m hoping it’ll all still be fine. I’m high risk and have a ton of appointments so I’m looking forward to him being able to come to even just one! I’m having an elective c-section and at the moment he’ll be allowed with me the whole time from admission and after. I’m on a Facebook birth group and the guidelines seem to vary so much. I really feel for those who are doing this completely without support.
Your Halloween window looks fantastic. I made a half-arsed attempt with a bit of bunting. I go all Santa’s tacky grotto at Christmas so I’ve never really done much for Halloween. We had our window egged twice tonight. Our area is full of little shits. If you complain on the local FB group you get told to let kids be kids and at least they’re not on drugs. I’m sure it’s not an either/or option. They could just not be twats full stop
@NoseyParkour I'm still grunka-ing so apologies if this has already been mentioned, but if you follow Pregnant Then Screwed on Instagram, they're campaigning for better support for pregnant mums and new mums during all of this, including allowing birthing partners at all appointments, throughout labour and post-birth. Worth a follow to get the latest info and find out where you can get support etc. Much love to you xThanks @EddieBeds. Our hospital trust hasn’t made any changes yet.
