@tfl there is disruption around St Matthews Church, but nothing on your website. Buses are going up brixton hill instead and turning onto brixton water lane. But refused to stop at any of the stops on that stretch of brixton hill! Was just left stranded with a toddler

@clhubes Congrats! As someone solo parenting this weekend, I'm relieved to hear it does get easier 😂🤪

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@oldenoughtosay This is such a smart idea! (Also we had the same cosleeper sheets as you!)

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@thisismewhatevs This is from June!? Why are we talking about it again!?

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@robkroese This was months ago and we had this conversation on twitter then, why are you dragging it up again?!

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@megsmamma If I could like this multiple times, I would have!

@oldenoughtosay Important to note with this one that if you feel a lot of itching elsewhere on the body, especially hands and feet and worse at night, then it could be sign of obstetric cholestasis! Get checked out!

@clhubes I sort of think parenting shouldn't be easy? It's a really important job and a massive responsibility! Part of the reason it's hard is we care about it a lot and want to get it 'right'. Like, I don't think being a doctor or the prime minister or a judge should be easy either.

@realgirl_fieri Time team for us!

@AngieBeatDown ... mostly so we haven't needed a double buggy (though I still baby wear a lot with toddler in buggy). BUT we will be paying for both of them in nursery soon 😱. I wouldn't have wanted less of an age gap personally, but would have gone a little longer.

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@AngieBeatDown Our age gap is 2.5yrs. Eldest was old enough to understand what was happening, to 'help' (mainly bringing me muslins while breastfeeding 😂). Just about got her out of nappies before baby arrived. She was in a toddler bed so we didn't need to buy a new cot, sits on buggy board...

@clhubes My second is such a happy baby! My theory is that he gets much less attention, so every time he gets some he's just so delighted

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@clhubes And swings! Lots of them! And plenty of them should be baby swings.

@sewistwrites Amazing!
My new pet peeve is places that don't label them! Are there any? Are they in the disabled loo? Do I need to ask for a key before I find out? Oh they're in the normal loos, but in a hidden, unlabelled, slightly larger cubicle? 😤

@NFBUK @BBCBreakfast @itvnews @BBCLondonNews @itvlondon @EveningStandard @myldn This happens to me honestly every single day on my way to/from my daughter's nursery. We've had several close calls.

@kellyxasher Fallen into your bra? 😆

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@LinkofSunshine Lol in my family she'd have to be turning down a fourth plate after having the other 2 pushed on her before she finished the previous 😅

[Ailsa Prise @AilsaPrise]

@AnyaM8_ We did this when we moved into a house that still had lead pipes until they could be replaced!
