MSE Parents Club Part 8

oh no!! you can get weight things for the front wheels? i have seen them on a few buggies when i have been in town?

wow feelie that was a MEGA post!

Wow feelie that's one hell of a post!

Aw Caz, big hugs for ya!
SM - have a good lesson.
Glam - Glad Jack is feeling better!
Pookie - lovely pics, Liam looked ever so small in his moses basket too! He was slightly bigger than Matthew at birth, but I don't think he'd fit into his basket at all now!
SS - Glad hubby is coming home. Don't be too hard on him, just plonk him on the sofa with baby, nappies toys etc

Prams, I've not had a problem with Liam being in the 3D. I must admit the strap are quite secure even on a little un, but he never did move around very much in it. L:iam is begging to look a bit snug in it though, but I really don't want the change to pushchair. Oh, and I find it's just as much effort taking out the car seat, changing the settings on the pram etc than it is to put the full pram up. Glam, it we're out and stopped to eat/drink whatever, I always take Liam out for a bit of a change in scenery.

I'm still annoyed with my Mum and apparently I have now upset my Sis too! I didn't aske her watch Liam whilst I took hubby to the NHS walk in center, we asked MIL instead. It's my Mum's fault for telling Sis she was needed :mad: Anyway, MIL did just as I said, but she did give him a bit of Calpol on his dummy cos he had been crying for 40 mins since we left. I can live with that, but would prefor not knowing

See Susan, the 3rd link is about a 2 year old in a car seat, could of happened at any time, the rest of the links seem to suggest that it's because the babies head lols forward thus making it harder for them to breathe. Would that even be classed as cot death? Sounds more like suffocation to me. I had a blanket rolled up underneath the car seat, at the front, so it was more backwards than upright, but still at angle so she wasn't flat down.

Plus the 2nd link is based on 9 babies that had apparently been found blue in the face at one point. It's not a varied study really!

I just think there is a lot of scare mongering that goes on with a lot of things related to infants, common sense is all you need.

There is a version of cot death in adults, where they just die for no apparent reason.

I apologise for the mega post, I've probably missed a few more pages while writing it! Perpare yourselves. Feel free to skip most of it, but look for your name, in case I've said something:

Sami_Bee - the bibs are great, especially the one with sleeves. LO ate loads of yogurt this morning, almost a whole pot! Have you got something for the spot? Toothpaste works sometimes. Car seat instructions are silly. Mine mention a storage compartmemt I didn't know about, but the instructions were in there! Took me a few months to find them!

Oh, and are we due any newbies from the pregnancy thread soon?

Cos I couldn't fit it elsewhere, bad parenting, at the station, a baby (maybe about 12-14 months) was fussing in the buggy, so the Mum leaned in and shouted 'Shut up' really loud in her face, the lkaughed to her mates

The sleeved bibs are my fave (I gave you a few styles coz wasn't sure which you'd like) they still fit my skinny mini now, just as 3/4 sleeves I've got spot stuff but it's annoying me that I can feel a lump of nasty under the skin but can't get it out

GISI is hopefully a mummy now, she was due on the 4th and had induction booked for day before yesterday (I think!)

Just found out a not very close friend is pregnant, due in june and I'm wondering if the fact that her and her DH were cooing over Edgar like mad roughly 3mths ago has anything to go with it :rotfl::D

aw dont back out! it will be fun



when me & my friends went shopping on tuesday all 3 of the babies were in car seats from 11am until at least 5pm, they only took them out to feed them even though we sat down for ages!I took my joey and Jack stayed on my lap the whole time we were in the food hall - they wondered why he was so alert all the time :rolleyes: dont get me wrong Jack goes in the car seat around ASDA but for long car journeys I always stop after 2.5hrs.



Its a bit dodgy round there - all them arcades and freaky adventure parks and he might run into my bro phished as a fart roaming the streets :rotfl:

can someone tell me why my 11 week old baby is only happy if he's standing up with me supporting him? :eek:

Tia - thanks for tampon question i was wondering the same myself having just finished my 2nd period and HATING pads althou apparently I'm weird cos my 3 friends only wear pads!

Jillie - where did u suggest meeting on Tuesday? Is it the food court bit where Gok does his parade at the end of his show?

I always find it weird when 'grown ups' still use pads, it's like wearing a nappy bleugh

babies love to stand up!, if your thighs get sore from him constantly digging in try standing him on the floor between your legs - hands free too!

Does anyone want or need a boys snowsuit aged 3-6 months. Matthew just got bought one and by the time it will fit him it will probably be spring. Its really thick, light blue corduroy fabric with dark blue stars. Its really lovely but just never going to get worn cos of his size.
