Hello all
OT went well this morning, we are getting a triangle seat and a bath seat and I have been told to feed Dylan wotsits !!!
Well, not quite, but she said as its easy melted to help him associate putting things in his mouth with food, its an easy one to start him on and there is less fear of choking. So we are to start that and we are also getting a referral to the speech therapist because he has so little interest in food to get some ideas on what might help. To be honest, I would rather let him get on with it in his own time, but apparently at 7 months he should be eating better than he is. Oh well, just one more appt to add to the list !!
Hope you are all well, havent had time to catch up

just before I go & catch up & then forget
EM - Specsavers Question - I had a 'free contact lense' trial in cardiff back in 2005, I wore lenses til 2008 when I had another eye test in another SS branch. Haven't had lenses since and am probably due another eye test soon - will go to another branch up here & would like another free trial. would they do it? should I play dumb & say I've not been to SS before or can they check?
Just want to get the free trial so I can see what lenses I need then order them cheaper online!
thanks xxA very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea
Where does the time go? :think:0 -
That's the one savvy recomended and I think it was either becles or Lu who used it too, I skimmed it in asda and liked how it read but I just cba reading parenting booksMillie's_Mum wrote: »I don't know about savvy but I liked the guy who writes secrets of happy children, Steve Biddulph, all his books are fab and really helped me when I was Toddler taming (also heard good things about Toddler Taming, but havent read myself). I think its Steve Biddulph who wrote the one about Raising Boys, which might give Bruno an excuse to buy it as opposed to an outright Help book.

MM - Organix do "carot sticks" which are the same consistency as Wotsits, but without the salt - might be worth giving them a try? They do stain like anything though

ta!
Just tell them you are interested in a free trial as you're thinking about taking them up on their lensmail scheme, if they are the same as us they will bend over backwards if they think they might be getting a sign up! I had 3 trials before I started there cos I couldnt get on with the lensesjust before I go & catch up & then forget

Lovely site!
I just wanted to say that I agree with MFD about the images needing to be a little lighter if you can, we usually optimise photography for web by brightening, upping the contrast and trying to have as little background as possible, to show off the product to the max!
I hope you don't think this is cheeky, more meant to be helpful, but here is an example of what I would usually do to an image for a sales website:
original
optimised
HTH and makes sense.

Lucky you, Dylan! I love Wotsits!
Eating develops the muscles used for speech afaik so they ST may have some exercies for him.
PS: how is your bum?!
