@SportsOrla Yes so far blue-sky is lovely. Like twitter used to be

I’ve been reading about Bluesky, mostly thanks to you lovely lot, so I’m giving that a go. If you’re over there, give me a shout. I figured it’s worth trying an alternative before giving up on the idea of text-based social interaction entirely. See you there?

Long-time followers may have noticed I haven’t been posting on here much of late. Just wading into this space has felt like a toxic endeavour, so I largely stay away for my mental health. But I really miss the interaction and community, the fun that used to be had. 1/2

Call 0300 330 0700 ☎️ to speak with one of our highly trained NCT Breastfeeding Counsellors, who will listen without judgement, and offer information and practical suggestions however you're feeding your baby. #ForEveryParent #NCTcharity #NewParents #NCTimpact #InfantFeeding

Our thoughts are with all the parents who have suffered the loss of a baby, light a candle with us to remember the babies who have died too soon. 💗💙 #WaveofLight #BabyLossAwarenessWeek @SandsUK , @Blisscharity, @TheEPT, @LullabyTrust, @MiscarriageA, @tommys

Remembering with love all the babies who brought us light, even if just for a short moment. #BabyLossAwarenessWeek #WaveOfLight

@char_broughton Glad it wasn't super serious

It’s the worst feeling knowing someone I love has crashed but no idea of the severity. Then X 10 when it’s your fiancé and you have 0 communication/info. But luckily when he got back to the hotel, still no phone, he emailed me. Felt very retro but I was so thankful he was ok 🥹

A long weekend in #Glasgow. looks like it will be wet on Monday. Suggestions of where to visit on Monday morning?

Thanks to @AssocBfMothers for inviting me to talk about Autistic infant feeding. Also, for making it accessible for me (a wheelchair using Autistic person) by allowing me to present online 🥰

Decluttered the office and reorganised my book shelf. Do you recognise any?

I love baking but did you know I used to keep pet rats? One year we made rat shaped ginger bread! Inspired by Susan Payton's #thebusinessofstorieschallenge

I'm in Bristol Thursday afternoon if anyone is local to Bristol and fancies a coffee catch up?
