As the social media ban arrives, I fear for the kids this will isolate, the ones that will lose the only way they feel comfortable communicating.
I hope the government is ready to have blood on their hands, there are teens whose mental health will be greatly affected by this decision.

Further good news from WA.
It’s not final, but it looks like the ALP will need the Greens to pass any legislation other than ‘more mining more mining’ bills, the coalition will help to pass those.

Been a bit worried about little one, not feeding enough. She made it up last night with feeds at 10, 12.30, 2.30 and 5.30…which is a relief but I feel like a cartoon with my eyeballs on slinky’s sticking outta my head

I got an emergency placement on Friday, an 8 week old bub. She’s prem and teeny tiny, it’s amazing how a new little one makes the last little one seem giant 😆

Had a small accident. Left bath running, got distracted. Remembered. Ran to stop it, water out in hallway, didn’t see it, went down hard onto my knee. Commando crawled to stop tap and back to call for help. Reached two carpeted areas. Ffs.
Knee extremely sore. Got kids to bed now we ice and hope 🤞
