@oldenoughtosay My husband and I have had long arguments about how our child will be pronouncing the letter 'J' and what she'll call it when you carry someone on your back (a collibuckie btw). We grew up approx 60 miles away from each other.

@sarajcox Sitting on a bus on the way to the festival ground in Barra, full on force 8 gale blowing all around us, a tent dances cartwheels across the road infront of us and carries on out to sea. A sad wail from the back of the bus "but that's my tent!"

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@sarahhollowell My husband occasionally walks in to see me with book open on lap but phone in hand, and has started asking if he needs to hide my phone for a bit. Yes. Yes you do. Please take it away

@emilykmay As a victim of the StIves, clearasil and 'a bit of glow from the sun will do you good' hegemony, they're probably on the right lines if maybe needing a bit of chill.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@emilykmay We tried trimming the nap down (although she wasn't a big napper tbh, max 2 hours) to like 40 mins. It gave us enough of a rest to make it to bedtime,but she started sleeping through the night when we did that.

@oldenoughtosay Yup, don't have endo but have experienced my fair share of obscene period pain. I was 12 hours into labour when my midwife complimented my pain tolerance because I hadn't asked for pain relief, and I was like, do other people not have this every month?

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@sewistwrites At least that's an adorable mistake. I was getting changed after swimming today and my 3 year old, with her booming perfect diction, shouted "I can see your boobies, BOOBIES HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@BookwormVaught @BrittonBookGeek We went through this and kept getting shuttled out the side entrance every time we left in tears. It really felt like they were protecting the happy bumps from our sad vibes.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@Sally_writes I had a few dolls that were handmedowns from my cousins but I wasn't really interested in them. However I am still stupidly excited about seeing this film ( I don't really watch many movies so I can't explain why, it just looks so fun)

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@seahammermaid Do it! Having the option to get outside on a bad pain day is better than being stuck in. If you're feeling good you can leave it behind, or park and go for a walk, but fresh air will always cheer you up. No shame on having support when you need it.

@LauraPAuthor Hair organisation (all levels), nail care, ironing, following fashion, music, tv or film trends. I'm sure there are more

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@Fi_BGB @drmartens Black. Much more of a classic Docs look.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@CallumGRobinson That is stunning.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@kidsstoryworld I'd suggest ignoring the report recommendations. He knows what he's doing

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@KatMusic2009 @ScottPughsley I'm not far off 40 and we had a leavers dance at the end of Primary school. It was called The Quali rather than prom, but we got to wear our best party dresses, glitter spray and crimp our hair (hellooooo 1997). Let the weans have a bit of fun.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@JenniferKillick I was born a Pryde, still can't get over the fact that I was daft enough to give such a good name away to the patriarchy. Sigh.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@Wonder_Bookshop Wow Said the Owl for tinys, Where the Sea Meets the Sky or The Snail and the Whale for littles, The Snow Spider by Jenny Nimmo for middles, and probably something Phillip Pulman or Patrick Ness-y for the older lot.

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@R3Cooper I can hear it

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@VonnSand Worst job interview I ever had was for Glasgow life. Clearly the last interview of the day and they left me alone in the room for 15 mins so they could go and get coffee, they did not offer me coffee or an apology for keeping me waiting. Still angry about it 10 years on

[WildWimminPod @WildWimminPod]

@PoleDoctress Luckie escape I say, this lassie has no joy in her soul.
