In The Fourth Trimester, we ask parents: What meal nourished you after welcoming your baby? This month it’s a soothing porridge from Eating at Home author Trinity Mouzon Wofford. Our first daughter, Ruby Natsuko, arrived on a Tuesday afternoon in late July. Her name is Japanese for Summer Child. She was born at home, caught by my midwife and warmly welcomed by her newly minted father and grandmother, who were there alongside me. I hadn’t intended a homebirth when I received the welcome surprise of a positive pregnancy test. I have always considered myself risk-averse, pain-intolerant, and skeeved out by the sort of spiritual mumbo-jumbo that seemed to accompany an unmedicated birth. I dutifully signed on with a traditional OB practice, but halfway through my pregnancy, I’d reached a breaking point. The practice had misread a test result of mine on the assumption I was Caucasian, leading to a flag that the baby might have a fatal birth defect. During the week between that phone call and my scheduled Level II ultrasound, I repeatedly cursed myself for being so nonchalant with my prenatal vitamins.

Dear Helen: I have a 20-year-old rhododendron that blooms every year, but it’s in an area of the garden not often seen.

Is autumn a good time to move a rhododendron? Or should I just leave the old shrub alone?

Google DeepMind announced the global availability of SynthID Detector, a tool designed to help identify AI-generated content, including media created using AI tools from SynthID partners such as OpenAI, NVIDIA, and Kakao, with Apple support expected soon. Before the introduction of SynthID Detector, users could identify content AI-generated only by asking Gemini, which was limited to content generated by Google AI. Identifying content from other AI providers required instead using their respective detection tools.

UPDATE: The only UK retailer offering a 23 October delivery date is EE, the rest are promising a delivery of at least four weeks or January 2027. The iPhone Duo went on sale last Friday (16 October) and pre-order stock sold out almost immediately. Only those who were very quick to the mark will be receiving their new foldable phone for this Friday's official launch date (23 October). Apple said that demand for the new iPhone Duo is “nothing short of extraordinary” as those even half an hour late to pre-order have been given a delivery date of January 2027. However since then, some shoppers in the US and Japan received messages that their iPhone shipping would be moved up to December. One user on X who had been given a December delivery date has now been told they’ll get the phone on the very first day possible: 23, October. We're still waiting to see how UK customers will be affected as many retailers are still low or out of stock. Below, we've given you a full breakdown of where the iPhone Duo is still in stock and how long you'll have to wait for delivery. Plus, we've got the lowdown on the iPhone Duo's fancy new design including colourways, size and feel. today.
