@rob_mcivor @metpoliceuk Report. Same thing happened to me when I was 7 months pregnant. Driver stopped briefly but drove off without exchanging details. Witness photographed number plate and sent it to me. Reported it to the police and they did follow it up

@EMA_airport
- website states there are chairs provided for breastfeeding/pumping in baby change rooms before and after security. Having searched every changing area after security all I can find is changing tables in disabled toilets. So where do I pump?

@DrAndrewBaldwin @UHDBDiabEndo Have a baby, a year of maternity leave and after that... who knows?! Maybe Nottingham, King's Mill or Burton.

[Isabelle van Heeswijk @IsabellevanHee1]

Sad to leave @UHDBDiabEndo after a wonderful 2 years working with some incredible colleagues but excited for maternity leave and the next chapter. Hopefully I'll be back here in the future!
