Saw a mum on here saying she’s going to give her kids ‘a screen-free 90s summer’ which confused me because I was watching MTV, Fresh Prince, Blossom and Sabrina The Teenage Witch and playing my Game Boy in the 90s before going on bike rides and falling off my skateboard with my friends.

Only 3 per cent of those with polycystic ovary syn

Only 3 per cent of those with polycystic ovary syndrome reach perimenopause by the age of 46, which may allow them to conceive when older. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) known now as Polycystic Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome is notorious for disrupting hormones and fertility, but it may have some surprising benefits after the age of 40. Ageing seems to naturally reshape the affected ovaries, often making periods more regular, delaying perimenopause and increasing fertility.

“Over the years, we’ve had so many women with PCOS telling us how they thought they would never be able to get pregnant without ART [assisted reproductive technology] and then they were so surprised because it happened in their 40s,” says Terhi Piltonen at Oulu University Hospital in Finland. “We call these children who they never thought they would have ‘evening stars’.”

Piltonen and her colleagues studied how PCOS influences the menopausal transition using data from 1849 women who were born in Finland in 1966 and had had regular health checks ever since as part of the Northern Finland Birth Cohort study.

A mother’s genetics determines how clever her children are, according to researchers.
Women are more likely to transmit intelligence genes to their children because they are carried on the X chromosome and women have two of these, while men only have one.

Despite taking into account several factors, from the participants education to their socio-economic status and beyond, the team still found the best predictor of intelligence was the IQ of the mother. #study #research #dad #iq #intelligence

Did you know that a lady named Valentina Vassilyev

Did you know that a lady named Valentina Vassilyeva is said to hold the record for the most children born to one woman, giving birth to 69 children between 1725 and 1765? Her children included 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets, and four sets of quadruplets. 67 of the 69 children are said to have survived infancy. I can barely cope with 3 kids 😂.

What a special morning I’ve had @langham_london for brunch with a preview of Together @hollywilloughbytogether, @hollywilloughby’s new @youtube lifestyle show bursting with celebrity interviews (hello @stanleytucci), real life stories, food, fashion and more. Her warmth, grace and two decades of TV experience made for a brilliantly funny and engaging trailer. Holly is such a resilient, multi-faceted, talented mum of three, who deserves all the continued success in the world! I can’t wait to tune in! Thanks for having me. I absolutely loved chatting to Holly, fellow creators and the press, as well as her good friend @shishib about the music and film world (film being my life before digital)! Now back home to my far less exciting mum life! From Downing Street to brunch with Holly in one week, it’s time to take on my role as family taxi driver and entertainer once more. I can’t possibly be this boujee all of the time 😂! Out on July 28th! #brunch #hollywilloughby #youtube #fyp #tv mums
