I am definitely in the minority in not having one. I don't actually know anyone else that doesn't have one. Just my weird family that didn't growing up and then because I do most of the laundry for my husband and child now I've not really thought about it. I have been contemplating getting one anyway as having my second child but this has spurred me on!

I grew up in Surrey too so she can't even say it's a Surrey thing. All my friends had one.

I got one that’s one of the combo ones. My old washing machine broke and I had no idea what tf I was looking for when buying a new one so I said to my mum ‘this is how much I want to spend, this is how much space I have which washing machine should I get’ 😂😂😂 I only really use it for bedding and towels. I could do without it but it is handy in winter months!

Again though that’s not a DEFINITIVE test, like says biopsy or blood test. i am not disputing your personal diagnosis at all, and I can’t imagine how horrendous that is, but I still think you don’t need a diagnosis to confirm you have it. And that it’s possible to be diagnosed with PPD without actually having it.

I wasn’t disputing that you did need a test to be diagnosed…I was simply just adding in that there is a test available. I agree that you as person know automatically when something is up. An example would be…plenty of people
go undiagnosed for years with things such as BPD or schizophrenia and have to fight with GPS and mental health services to get a diagnosis.

Technically there is…here in the UK midwives and health visitors use the Edinburgh postnatal scale…I myself scored high in it but I’ve been diagnosed prior to pregnancy with CPTSD

I think she is in the equivalent to UK nursery as that's been the whole thing she won't attend school until she is 6 I think, so I'm sure she could have skipped out, though it's paid for.

She had a seizure unfortunately, really really bad, cpr, ventilated, Kyle flew in, definitely an awful time. Caroline has done a post on it just to raise awareness, not to say look at my kid in hospital like some do. I wonder is that part of the reason she hasn't came last 2 times as its all a reminder.

Ahhhhh I thought she choked ? I thought that’s what the references to the CPR were ! Thanks for filling me in

Her mum was probably more annoyed at Caroline telling the world she pays her mums mortgage. Also it’s not her mum, it’s the family of the lady I’d be more worried about. When my mum died a friend of my mum went on facebook and did a post about how her best friend had died and she was so sad etc but it was all about that woman, not my mum who had gone through a year of cancer. And Caroline has made this death about her too. It’s a bit like posting about a baby being born before the family has posted- it’s not Caroline’s news to share.

Absolutely agree it's not her place to put that on the Internet, sure talk to your husband. And so she's made another video 🙄 scraping for content?

She’s been on Tik Tok today but not Instagram. I am confused as to who she is implying has mental health issues and trauma? Tattlers or people in her comments? She was not very clear at all. She seems to be focusing on not being on medication whereas the very few comments about her PPD here (I mean we’re page 3 now because of the last few days!) was in relation to a self diagnosis? Not implying she should be medicated for it. Or am I missing something entirely?!

She’s saying she’s moving back when replying to the ‘move back to the UK’ comments. My kids are over 18 now so I’m not too sure what is available nowadays but it was still expensive for nurseries back then even with some free hours. I live less than 5 miles away from where her mum lives and it’s bloody expensive round here. Does anybody know what Kyle does?

I don’t follow the sister but randomly have a nose at her stories every now and again. Today she is showing her daughters bedroom and I prefer it to Sophie’s room. I’m not too sure what Caroline has been doing with this house, her other house was decorated much nicer.

This may be WILDLY wrong but I always thought that with consultancy there’s a lot of freedom of where/when you work so that could be why he seems to always be around?
My dad’s potentially going back to consultancy after retirement (aka he’s bored already 😂) and that’s how he’s sold it to my mum

My sister moved back in 2019 after she had the wee man (he was 9months when they moved) & wanted to be close to my parents (well, that & 3/4 of the daycare tour she did when the wee man was 8 weeks old was about what would happen if there was a shooting and at that point she was like no I’m out ✌🏻)

she had built it up to be this idyllic life when she was over there and she’ll admit it was a shock when she came back and it was all sunshine & roses, it was harder to meet up with her friends when she was here all the time etc rather than ‘I’m over for 2 weeks, let’s make plans’ - it’s worked out great for them now but it is not perfect. I can’t wait for Caroline to be moaning about missing America and the lifestyle they have/appear to have is there with their higher income
