What a gripping story! Denise’s suspicions and actions stirred up so much drama and uncertainty—it’s easy to see how difficult it must have been for Zoe and Andrew to navigate such a storm of mistrust. By taking a firm stand and insisting on the DNA test for Andrew’s family as well, Zoe made a powerful point about fairness and accountability, which also revealed Denise’s long-buried secrets. This certainly reshaped the family dynamic, showing how buried insecurities can sometimes come to light in unexpected ways.
In a way, the outcome shifted the balance, giving Andrew and Zoe the clarity and boundaries they needed for their family. It’s a testament to the importance of trust and honesty—and how, sometimes, the truth can set everyone free, even if it comes at a cost.

I was HORRIFIED to see my MIL bathing my son in a sink, WHERE WE WASH THE DISHES

If you’re not sure whether or not to fill the sink or splash out on a baby bath, then it might be a good idea to consider the pros and cons of each.

Easier on your back
Standing at the sink can be a lot kinder to your back than having to bend over a baby bath on the floor. Sink baths can also be a lot easier for new mums recovering from a c-section tor this reason too.

Quick and easy
It’s considerably faster and less hassle to fill the sink to give your baby a bath, than it is to get everything ready for the baby baht tub. Plus, you can have all your equipment ready to go on the draining board so it’s more easily accessible too.
Location is key
Lots of kitchen sinks tend to be by the window in the kitchen and in cooler weather, this might not be ideal. The good thing about baby baths is that you can move them to water parts of the house when you need to.
