Hello everyone, new here. I've had occipital neuralgia for years, happening every few months maybe. I don't get any warning just extreme intense shock pains. However my last 3 (all within a few weeks) have literally floored me, the pain is so sudden and strong I'm knocked off my feet and curled up in a ball waiting for it to pass. I have no current injuries or tension I'm particularly aware of. I've never seen a dr about it but I'm thinking I have to do something at this stage

As per title, husband thought they were lovely I thought they were mank, neither can remember what they were called!

I stopped recording overnight feeds a long time ago but still keep track of daytime feeds, we're almost 1 year in and i think maybe I'll stop even though I've enjoyed having a record of it all!

Edit to add - I'm a scientist, I enjoy the data which is why I've recorded thus far - not suggesting it's necessary!

Any recommendations for a surveyor in the midlands area? We have used one prior we were happy with but currently a 2 month wait, we'd like to get the process started quicker than that if possible!

Anyone know a cake maker that can do a vegan Birthday cake in Dublin? Preferably north Dublin.

First Lola, now every second post is nitpicking Priya. They're all in there for themselves/their profile/their career. Almost all of them have done something dodgy at some stage. Why does it seem someone always has to be piled on? And Priya is currently it?

And the desperation for someone to be "iconic" is also pathetic. They're just people, it's just a sh*tty entertainment show, there doesn't have to be heroes and villains. Can everyone relax?

Almost everytime I go to the supermarket there's an elderly person having a nightmare of some kind or they're paying with coppers, taking 2 days to count them and having a chat. And look that's great they shouldn't have to speed up because a store manager would rather people queue down the aisles than open another checkout but at the same time I have a screaming infant in tow and I'd love to get tf outta here.

If there was always a "more time" till open for people who hate being rushed, generally need a bit more time and/or who want to have the chats while out shopping we'd all be happier no? (Except maybe the store manager).

For info this store has no self-service option.

Almost 11 month old, EBF and co-sleeping. We have gone through every sleep regression, are managing a dairy/soy allergy. I couldn't sleep for the last trimester of pregnancy so for over a year now the most sleep I have had is a 2 hour stretch. This last week we have gone backwards again, baby won't sleep without being held the last 3 nights. I'm snapping at my partner (who tries to help but baby only wants me) and crying in the middle of the night losing my mind. I got an hour sleep this morning before my husband went to work and now i have a 10 hour day by myself (we have no village). I want desperately to continue the responsive/attachment parenting we have been doing but I fear this latest regression is going to break me. I can't and won't leave baby crying/upset. I don't know I need some stories of others who have got through this.

We feed to sleep, always have. Baby will resettle with snuggles sometimes but not always. Will go to sleep with Dad being rocked/nursery rhymes but won't do this with me. Baby is almost 11 months and I would like to start creating some sleep associations with me that aren't feeding.

Not sure why this sub started showing up on my feed but I'm so glad it did, your lovely posts of your gardens brighten my day. I don't currently have a garden but I can't wait to, hopefully I can contribute one day. Until then I just wanted to show some appreciation for your lovely group.

I'm aware union reps come in all forms so I'm afraid to put it down for fear of being judged, but realistically it has given me great experience in conflict resolution and working with difficult people, difficult situations and greatly improved my communication skills. But I still think probably safer to not mention it?

Had gone sale agreed on a property, survey showed Japanese knotweed present, from the vendors response we believe they were aware and don't consider it a big deal. They are unwilling to do what our specialist and solicitor have recommended so we are walking away. While its frustrating to have our time and money wasted I am also annoyed that the estate agent has said they plan to go back to market and I do not believe (based on our conversation) they plan to disclose the knotweed (again downplaying the whole thing) Is there a way to report this? I don't want someone else wasting their time and money too.

So many places/experiences are charging more and offering less in both goods and services and it's crap. Is there anywhere you've been pleasantly surprised lately? I need the antidote!

I recently went to a new enough coffee place in my local area, got 2 coffees and a cookie - price was reasonable but the cookie (homemade) was outrageously tasty and the owner stuck it in the microwave so the chocolate was perfectly melty, it's the little things.

I am happily married to someone I am very much aligned with on political/broader moral issues. One of my best friends is married (also happily) to a man with very iffy (IMO) views on certain things. Like he's a nice person, great Dad but then I'll see some absolute batshit comments he puts on Facebook. My friend says there is topics they just cannot discuss because they will fall out about them and that just seems mad to me. I wouldn't be able to raise kids with someone who had such a different stance on important issues. Would you?

Hilariously now that my baby can clap my boobs get a round of applause before we feed. Finally the recognition we deserve 😂

Easy going on location, have a week and looking to do 2 nights somewhere and ideally not spend a ridiculous amount!
