I’m so sorry you went through that. Makes it worse when you’re asking.
They have put a lot of money into early help which I think is the right idea. If I’m honest our MASH team don’t step up enough cases and a lot of families I believe are let down, however there is also a lot of new things for families and the results are fantastic.
I hope things are better for you.

Yeah I begged for help for over a year through horrific depression. So many people slip through the net, its scary!

Things were much better but lockdown has definitely brought back similar feelings and depression has crept back in but I feel stronger to deal with it this time

That’s awful, I’m so cross for you!
Good for you! Sending you all the strength. I give it to you mums who are doing lockdown with little ones.
If I can do anything to help or send over resources let me know Keep going, you’ve got this X

This depends with the psychologist.
I’m a social worker and 100% they need some early help intervention. A family support worker, parenting practitioner or the Health visitor assistants.
With K being an alcoholic this would count as a child trauma and in our locality Isla would meet the threshold for having a play therapist.
Lil need to start acting now, she will have her health visitor back soon and hopefully they will recommend both parents going on the family links parenting group as well as having some Early help 1:1 intervention.
It’s going to get a lot worse when number 3 comes along!

Thanks for wading in. You’ve probably said what I thought in a more articulate way. When I said psychologist I had a family therapist in mind, but I wasn’t given the benefit of the doubt.

I went off what you said.

K is at work today - she has to parent on her own - well bloody hell Lil, if you can’t look after two, why get pregnant with a third. Ahh I remember, children bring content which pays your bills.

I thought this too, she really makes a bit deal out of it when he’s at work.l doesn’t she? As of today my partner’s working long hours for 12 days on the trot, am I going to complain all over Instagram that I’ve got my kids on my own? Bizarrely, no

Stylish sock attire as always K

 

[TheWitchIsBack]

I see she’s now commenting on Fopperholics posts. Obviously the tit mums need to stick together!

 

[BabyMama59]

I’m so confused as to why she is going to a supermarket when she has K at home. I thought pregnant women were classed as high risk so are in the “12 weeks at home” category ? Surely he should be doing the shopping around work ?

 

[Getagripppppy]

I don’t know if I’m getting this all wrong but I’m 30 weeks pregnant and I haven’t been near a supermarket, not even ventured further than round the block.
I know some pregnant ladies have to work/shop etc and have nothing but respect for them but I think it’s really selfish if you have other options to get your food. Not only are you putting yourself and baby at risk, but if you god forbid did catch something you’d probably receive double the NHS help of a non-pregnant person. It’s annoying as it’s completely avoidable (she’s got someone else to do it) and she’s doing it for content of a fresh face of make up and less time parenting most likely.

I agree, if I was pregnant I’d be sending my other half to do the shopping, no question x

It doesnt matter what kind of birth she ends up having...shes always going to make it into a dramatic traumatic episode. Girl is a narcissist.

NHS say you’re allowed out for essentials just like anybody else who isn’t pregnant.

 

[Begborrowsteal]

I love doing the shopping - its a chance for some peace and quiet lol

I just wouldn’t risk it though when somebody else is available to do it

Exactly, my friend is using it as her time to get a little break from the kids. Not that she doesn't appreciate them, but lock down is getting to everyone, and a trip to the shops while she can, just helps her. I love how everyone makes judgement.

I love going to the shops as well, I’ve been going once a week. I love going on my own, it’s a break from the kids! I’m just saying if I was pregnant I wouldn’t be going out to the shops during a pandemic, I wouldn’t risk it. I’d get my partner to do it. Obviously just my opinion

 

[Rosie1111]

I can’t remember what I was watching but they said on there that it’s the last trimester of pregnancy that is the most concerning around coronavirus so why is she going out to the supermarket?! We all need a break here and there but I certainly wouldn’t be risking my unborn baby or myself just for five mins peace, i would take a walk round the block if it got that bad.

I love shopping too. But we are in a bloody lockdown and as she is classed as ‘vulnerable’ she should not be leaving her house if there is an alternative (her partner).
Typically though, the rules don’t apply to Lil.

 

[notyourhunhun]

I’m 20 weeks & I’ve not been to the shops “just in case” I’ve been out to exercise most days, keeping my distance, but just thought whilst I have the option of my Husband doing the shopping it’d be safer. I have however got in the car & parked up round the corner - just to get away from Mum mum muuuum Mummmmmy 83737474 times a day. But I reckon most parents have done this !!
