didnt have any books but while i was pregnant with 2nd we gave our 1st a baby doll and told her it was her responsibility to change her bum and feed her etc so she felt some sense of responsibility and importance etc and we talked loads about all the things she would teach her new sibling etc. That really helped us when new baby came along. we found that including elder sibling as much as possible helps with any feelings of resentment and spending time alone with them still, not always having new baby attached to you can be important. Equally try to get some time with new baby alone as well....

We tend to get over possible issues by just telling our eldest (still under 3 with a 13mth old sister) that she needs to help her little sister learn what to do and that tends to calm the situation and again makes her feel involved.

good luck,,xx

      Lordship Lane Post Office Closure

      By Soleila · Posted

      How on earth is this possible when Rye Lane post office has already been lost? Where am I supposed to go now?? Peckham Post Office is awful and too far.  Krystal’s doesn’t even provide all the services that east dulwich does, so that’s a dud.

      Indeed ianr, I didn't have time to include all Royal Mail options, thanks for that extra bit, they have been spot on for me, I use them a lot and have never had any issues with delivery, touch wood!

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By malumbu · Posted

      People are switching to electric cars irrespective of fuel prices.  100s of millions that could be spent on hospitals and schools for example have been lost due to fuel duty freezes and a supposedly temporary reduction.  Fuel is relatively cheap at the moment.  With a stonking majority when is it time to rightly take on motorists? Farming, I simply referred to Paul Johnson of the IFS who knows more about the economy that you, I and Truss will ever know. Food?  Au contraire.  It's too cheap, too poor quality and our farmers are squeezed by the supermarkets and unnatural desire to keep it cheap.  A lot less takeaways and more home cooking with decent often home produced, food should benefit most in our society. Be honest you do t like Labour.

      In fact there was a promotional leaflet came through the letter box today, for sending by RM's parcel post by buying online.  There are also options mentioned for having the labels printed  at a Collect+ store or at a Parcel Locker.  More info at https://www.royalmail.com/.
