Thank you. It took me a long time to accept that with our first son, this time round I was determined to do it 'properly' so I feel a bit of a failure as a woman. However I know I am lucky to have our new boyo with us so although I feel confused and disappointed about how it all happened I am coming to terms with it a bit better this time round.

How on earth can you be a failure 'as a woman'!!! You have made and delivered a beautiful baby and it doesn't matter a bit how he actually came into this world. There is far too much banging on about 'natural' childbirth, breastfeeding etc and women are made to feel inadequate for no good reason.

I have little patience with all these wonder women who maintain that childbirth is the most natural wonderful experience and bang on about they didn't need any pain relief at all and were up scrubbing the bloody kitchen within hours of dropping a 10lb + baby ! Its bloody hard work (its not called 'labour' for nothing!), sweaty and painful and if men had to do it the human race would never have got off the ground.

Congratulate yourself on having another lovely son and don't let ANYBODY dare suggest that you are anything less than wonderful for doing so.

Yesterday, it was still showing as £70 on a.com so will assume that now it is the correct price online, it may not work.

This one still compares well, Oral B Pro CrossAction 3000 Power.

Thank you, is it reduced in store do you know?

I didnt know you was only allowed to exchange 4000 nectar points in double up

Well said.. it is flipping horrid. I also think motherhood is flipping hard work as well.

My only piece of advice I like giving is - remember you must not be a perfect parent, as if you are perfect your child will not develop resilience!

So relax and enjoy the ride, warts and all x

Hope that you are feeling a bit better, bubbs.

per category

It's been like that as long as I can remember but I don't think I've had enough points for it to be a problem before (I do now )

I've seen it said you can double up to the max and then double up in that category again. You just can't use them together (and you're not supposed to get more than £40 per category so don't ask the same CS to do it for you!)

Did your daughter have a C section in the end?
