2yo has a big jellycat giraffe in bed, wears giraffe pyjamas, demanded a small wooden giraffe and a small plastic giraffe to hold. Currently sitting up saying "one two three riraffe" I can't quite decide if he likes giraffes or not πŸ˜‚? πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’πŸ¦’

@ElderAtropos99 Yep. Like many others I first thought about twins, then looked at the stats. "split motherhood" vs real risks to mother and babies.. Wasteful + more ivf cycles (so additional unnecessary stress)

The same Embryo Protection Act bans egg donation, but not sperm donation. Because "split motherhood" is considered bad, whereas "split fatherhood" is somehow perfectly fine.

@W98AB Hard disagree, but an image of a generic 'bake' and fresh blueberries in a disproportionately small a fragile oven dish is not it!

@W98AB @IronEconomist @mnguyen469 I have actually seen houses built in Islington as part of the estate regeneration (as it turned out), but this should have really been blocks of flats again, not 3-storey houses

@IronEconomist @W98AB The number of conversations I had with partners at law firms or MDs at banks about how expensive housing is is quite remarkable. My hypothesis is smth like people in 0.1% income (but no deposit from parents in their early 20's) will be buying what 1% did 20 y ago and 10% 40 years

@W98AB @IronEconomist This is why people are delaying till their (sometimes mid-)30's and sometimes after they have kids. I think half of our NCT group moved /bought house just before /just after having their first kid
