A mum has lashed out at a hospital after she was handed a letter advising her on how to get her figure back 'straight away ' following the birth of her second child - branding the message `` offensive and outdated '' .
Louise Goulden discovered the letter in her NHS hospital discharge pack from the physiotherapy department , providing guidance on 'post-natal exercises ' for all mothers , Daily Star reports .
It reads : `` Now that your baby has been born you will be anxious to get your figure back. ''
.
It gets harder the longer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very big breathes in and out , taking the air right down to your waist .
`` This will make sure that the bottom of your lungs , that have been squashed by the baby , are full of air again . ''
Louise , who is the founder and CEO of The Together Project , tweeted images of the letter to say she has lodged a complaint with the hospital , racking up hundreds of likes from others who were shocked by its contents .
The mum-of-two said the advice was `` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , writing : `` For the avoidance of doubt , she was born in 2020 , not 1950 .
@ EverydaySexism . ''
She explained to her followers : `` I ’ m a second time mum and was feeling emotionally well , so was lucky enough to feel indignant at it , rather than it causing anxiety , depression , self-hatred or any other nasty things that other women will have been at risk of . ''
Replying to the comments of others , she said : `` With my first child @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my figure back ' either .
I was anxious as to how to get my head around such a monumental life shift and figure out what I was feeling and how to deal with everything . ''
When asked what she wanted to achieve , Louise added : `` For no other woman to have this thrust into her hands at possibly the most vulnerable time in her life .
Not going to stop until I know that 'll happen . ''
Louise said she had chosen not to disclose the name of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to give it a chance to deal with the situation - but warned she may `` name and shame '' if the response is n't good enough as `` it really needs to be stopped '' .
One person relied to the tweet showing the letter to say : `` WTAF ... the irresponsibility of handing that to a woman after giving birth is mind-blowing .
What kind of duty of care failure is happening in that maternity unit ? ''
Another said : `` There ’ s so much wrong here , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ births ( i.e .
c-sections ) are abnormal .
Words make all the difference . ''

Louise, who is the founder and CEO of The Together Project, tweeted images of the letter to say she has lodged a complaint with the hospital, racking up hundreds of likes from others who were shocked by its contents.
The mum-of-two said the advice was "insane" and "utterly depressing", writing: "For the avoidance of doubt, she was born in 2020, not 1950. @EverydaySexism."
She explained to her followers: "I’m a second time mum and was feeling emotionally well, so was lucky enough to feel indignant at it, rather than it causing anxiety, depression, self-hatred or any other nasty things that other women will have been at risk of."
Replying to the comments of others, she said: "With my first child, I wasn't 'anxious to get my figure back' either. I was anxious as to how to get my head around such a monumental life shift and figure out what I was feeling and how to deal with everything."

Louise said she had chosen not to disclose the name of the hospital while she awaits a response to give it a chance to deal with the situation - but warned she may "name and shame" if the response isn't good enough as "it really needs to be stopped".
One person relied to the tweet showing the letter to say: "WTAF...the irresponsibility of handing that to a woman after giving birth is mind-blowing. What kind of duty of care failure is happening in that maternity unit?"
Another said: "There’s so much wrong here, from body shaming to inferring that non-vaginal births (i.e. c-sections) are abnormal. Words make all the difference."

A school has sparked fury among parents after opening windows to stop the spread of coronavirus while telling pupils they can not wear their coats inside .
Barr Beacon School in Walsall , West Midlands , sent a letter to parents explaining the decision to teach with windows open to allow better ventilation .
In the letter , headteacher Lynsey Draycott said that the direction came from advice issued by The Independent Sage group .
But many parents said the decision not to allow students to wear coats was `` unbelievable '' - although others said the decision was `` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gareth Hall said : `` Too right , about time privileged cupcakes learned to man up .

The team of scientists at the independent SAGE group said children should put on more clothes and get used to being cold because schools will need to keep windows open over the winter to fight Covid-19 .
They also called on the Government to give schools extra funds to improve ventilation and to cut class sizes .
The letter , which was dated September 11 , reads @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Emergencies ( SAGE ) has warned that because school windows must be left open to fight coronavirus , pupils should start wearing more clothes and 'get used to being cold ' .

A debate has developed between those that agree and disagree with the new rules at Barr Beacon School in Walsall, West Midlands – which will see the windows kept open to ensure ventilation

While the school said coats will not be allowed, it suggested pupils could wear an extra vest or t-shirt under their school uniform.
But many parents said the decision not to allow students to wear coats was "unbelievable" - although others said the decision was "fine", reports Birmingham Live.

Deputy First Minister Michelle O'Neill said whether to introduce an early closing time for pubs is something ministers would be considering, describing replicating the 10pm curfew being introduced in England as "fair enough" to consider.
First Minister Arlene Foster said a two-week period of lockdown to try to halt the spread of the virus, a so-called circuit breaker, could not be ruled out.
Scotland
Household mixing indoors will no longer be allowed, with exemptions for those living alone, couples not living together, childcare and tradespeople.
Regulations come into force on Friday but people are being asked to comply from Wednesday.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said children under 12 will be exempt from the current limit of six people from two households when meeting outside, and those between 12 and 18 will be able to meet a limit of six others from six households outdoors.
From Friday pubs, bars and restaurants must close at 10pm and further resources will be given to environmental health officials to step up enforcement and inspections, to check that social distancing and other hygiene guidance is being adhered to.
People in Scotland are also being advised against car-sharing, with Ms Sturgeon saying that according to Test and Protect data there is a "significant risk of transmission" in such settings.
She said no decision has been taken yet on a so-called circuit-break in October, and the Scottish Government is "keeping it under review".
She asked people not to book any overseas travel for the half-term break unless it is essential, and to use it as an opportunity to "further limit social interaction".
She said people who were shielding earlier in the year are not at this stage being asked to do so again, but that they should follow the steps outlined for the general population.
Wales
Pubs, cafes, restaurants and casinos in Wales must operate as table service only and close from 10pm on Thursday.
Off-licences including supermarkets will also be stopped from selling alcohol at the same time each day as part of the measures.
Only six people are able to meet indoors and must be part of a single extended household.
Face coverings must be worn on public transport, in shops and in enclosed public spaces across Wales.
Additional measures across much of South Wales are due to come into force from 6pm on Tuesday.
The measures, which are already in force across Rhondda Cynon Taf and Caerphilly county borough, will apply in Bridgend, Merthyr Tydfil, Newport and Blaenau Gwent.
Under the new rules people must not enter or leave the areas without a reasonable excuse and are only able to meet with other households outdoors, including members of their extended household.
All licensed premises such as pubs have to close at 11pm.

thedailymirror--2020-09-23--Shameless Boris Johnson moans about 'unseemly' attack on Test and Trace shambles

Boris Johnson has complained about `` unjustified '' attacks from Keir Starmer over the Test and Trace shambles .
The Prime Minister moaned that continued criticism of the under-fire testing chief Dido Harding was `` unseemly and unjustified '' despite widespread shortages of tests .
The Government has come under sustained attack over the testing programme , which has seen people told to travel hundreds of miles to get coronavirus tests .
Mr Johnson dodged questions from the Labour leader about his bizarre claim on Tuesday that the Test and Trace scheme was `` very little or nothing to do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
He had previously hailed the contact tracing scheme as a game changer in the battle against coronavirus .
Mr Starmer challenged Mr Johnson on his contradictory claims during a fiery Prime Minister 's Questions , saying : `` Both positions can not be right - which one is it Prime Minister ? ''
The PM replied : `` It is an obvious fact of biology and epidemiology that alas this disease is transmitted by human contact or aerosol contact .
`` But it is one of the great advantages of NHS Test @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have working earlier in the pandemic , that we now have the ability to see in granular detail where the epidemic is breaking out , exactly which groups are being infected . ''
Mr Starmer accused the PM of `` pretending there is n't a problem '' with Test and Trace and demanded to know where the blockage was in the system .
He said : `` Is the explanation from the PM that we have n't got enough capacity because nobody could have expected the rise in demand ?
That 's the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it we 've got all the capacity we need , it just that people are being unreasonable in asking for tests ?
That 's the ( Matt ) Hancock defence .
So which is it ? ''
Mr Johnson replied : `` I must say that the continual attacks by the Opposition on Dido Harding in particular are unseemly and unjustified . ''
He claimed the UK was testing more people than `` any other European country '' and repeated his commitment to 500,000 tests by the end of October .
And he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ knocking [ the scheme ] from the sidelines '' .
Mr Starmer hit back furiously , saying members of his family worked in the NHS .
He challenged the Government on the testing shambles following children going back to school , adding : `` How on earth did we get into this mess ? ''
Mr Johnson said : `` We are doing our level best to get every child a test who has symptoms and further to that , thanks to the efforts of teachers in this country , of parents , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are now back . ''
But Mr Starmer accused the Prime Minister of being `` out of touch '' with the experiences of parents .
He said : `` That 's such a poor defence , the point ... is n't whether the children have got Covid , it 's that they 've got Covid symptoms and then they 're off school .
`` The Government 's own department shows that one in eight children are off school this week .
That disrupts their education .
Whether it 's Covid symptoms or other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ `` If the Prime Minister does n't see that , he 's really out of touch with families and what they 're going through in schooling day in day out in the last few weeks .

England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland all have their own rules - as well as local restrictions covering particular towns and cities across Britain
New rules on households mixing are being brought into force across the UK.
But the rules on who can meet up in private homes and gardens vary across the four nations of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Each government has taken a slightly different approach to people meeting up as they look to find the best way of battling coronavirus.
The household mixing rules are complicated further by a number of additional local restrictions in parts of England and Wales, which have stricter rules on people meeting each other.
Here’s an explanation of who can meet up, and where.
England
For the majority of people living in England, the current rules are that people cannot meet in groups of more than six, indoors or outdoors, but those six can all be from different households.
There’s also no minimum age, meaning everybody, no matter how young, counts in the group of six.
There are a number of exceptions, such as for registered childcare, supporting a vulnerable person and for children who don’t live with both parents.
However, a number of areas in England have additional local lockdown restrictions.
These areas are:
Bolton
Greater Manchester (City of Manchester, Trafford, Bury, Tameside, Rochdale, Salford, Oldham)
Leicester
North East (Durham, Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tyneside, South Tyneside , Sunderland)
North West (Pendle, Blackburn with Darwen, Halton, Lancashire - excluding Blackpool, Merseyside, Warrington
West Midlands (Birmingham, Sandwell, Solihull, Wolverhampton
West Yorkshire (Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees)
For people living in those areas, the UK government says people must not meet up in homes and gardens unless it’s with people in their household or support bubble.
Residents are also not allowed to meet people they don’t live with in other parts of the country, unless they’re in the same support bubble.

Scotland
From Wednesday, people from different households are not allowed to meet in someone’s house, unless they’re all part of the same extended household.
These rules also apply to children, although kids who only live with one parent can still move between homes, as can non-cohabiting couples.
A maxim of six people from two households can meet in gardens and outdoor public spaces, with children under 12 not counting. They don’t have to socially distance either.
Those aged 12-17 can meet outdoors in groups of up to six, with no household limit, but maintain social distancing.
Indoor public spaces - such as cafes, pubs and restaurants - can see a maximum of six people from two households meet. Those under 12 do not count.
Wales
Up to four households can continue to form one extended household.
In those extended households, up to six people aged 11 or over can meet indoors - and stay over in each other’s homes - at any one time, and not worry about social distancing either.
The Welsh Government adds: “Welsh law imposes restrictions on people gathering indoors with others without a reasonable excuse.
“This means people should not generally enter each other’s homes outside their extended household. This includes young children.”
However, up to 30 people can still meet outdoors, following social distancing as much as possible.
A number of areas in Wales also have additional restructions.
Bridgend
Caerphilly
Rhondda Cynon Taf
Blaenau Gwent
Merthyr Tydfil
Newport
In these areas, the Welsh government says people cannot meet those in their extended households or other people indoors.
“Gatherings with members of any other household can take place outdoors only,” is the guidance, however children with parents living separately can still stay with both.
Grandparents providing informal childcare can also continue to do so, but the Welst government says this should only be “when no other methods are available”.
Northern Ireland
As of Tuesday (September 22), people in different households cannot mix in each other’s homes.
Exemptions include bubbling with one other household, caring responsibilities, including childcare, and supported living arrangements.
“Children whose parents do not live in the same household can move between homes as normal,” says the Northern Ireland government.
Meanwhile no more than six people aged 12 or over from two households can mix in private gardens.
Indoor and outdoor gatherings away from private dwellings of up to 15 people are also allowed in Northern Ireland.

Huge crowds amassed in Louisville, Kentucky, on Wednesday evening following a grand jury's decision not to charge two officers who fired into tragic black woman Breonna Taylor's apartment
An officer has been shot as demonstrations grow in Louisville at the lack of charges against officers over Breonna Taylor's death, the city's police said.
Louisville police did not elaborate on the circumstances of the shooting or provide details on the officer's condition.
Police in protective gear, National Guard members and armoured military vehicles were seen in the centre of the Kentucky city.
Protests against the death of the young woman also took place in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia and the US capital.
The demonstrations were reignited after prosecutors announced a single officer had been indicted, though not on charges involving the 26-year-old's death on March 13.

Two white policemen who fired into medical worker Ms Taylor's apartment will not be prosecuted for her death because their use of force was justified, and a third was charged with endangering her neighbours.
Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced the grand jury's decision at a news conference, as protesters against racial injustice and police brutality massed in the streets of the state's largest city.
The demonstrations wore on past nightfall in defiance of a 9pm curfew.
They remained mostly peaceful before several gunshots rang out in the midst of a skirmish between protesters and heavily armed police, sending members of the crowd scurrying for cover.
The Louisville Courier-Journal and other local media reported that one officer was wounded, and the FBI said it was responding to reports that an officer was shot.
Television station WAVE-TV said two officers were hit and that at least one arrest was made, but none of those reports have been independently confirmed.

It is understood up to 29 people have now been arrested.
A dozen people were detained in one confrontation between hundreds of demonstrators and dozens of heavily armed law enforcement officers in riot gear just outside the city's downtown area.
While video footage shared on social media claims to show the aftermath as bullets were allegedly fired at officers, with one down.

Crowds of varying sizes were also gathering in New York,Washington, D.C., Atlanta, and Chicago.
Benjamin Crump, a civil rights lawyer representing the Taylor family, said it was "outrageous" that none of the three officers involved in the raid was criminally charged with causing Ms Taylor's death.
Ms Taylor was killed in front of her armed boyfriend shortly past midnight after three officers forced their way into her home with a search warrant.
