This is a continuation of the Parents Club part 9 which can be found HERE. Part 9 was eventually closed due to the length of it

All parents are welcome, mums & dads with children of any age. We're also happy to help people who just have questions about kids, even if you don't have any yet.

This is a place of mutual support, so feel free to ask and answer whatever you want. Feel free also just to moan if that will help!

Suggestions to keep the thread running smoothly
  • Put questions or anything you don't want to be missed in bold and or colour
  • Put an indication of age of child either in signature or in posts where it is relevent for people to understand/reply to a post.
  • If you don't get a response to something, post it again.
  • If you are replying to someone, make sure you either quote them or use their name so that if they don't read through everything they can find your post.
The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    shameless repeat of my post on the old thread after you'd all moved :rotfl::

    ooooh news from me. I think I have found a nice part-time CM for Fergie (probably 2 afternoons a week for the last couple of weeks of PG and at least first few months of Kester being here.)

    It is a bit of a non-essential since I will be here, but I feel I'm a bit limited by my bump and would like to rest more. He loves practise walking with me holding hands, but my back is complaining a lot!

    I also felt that I asked a lot of DH and my parents when Fergie was new and I'd like to not be too demanding, and feel this will help.

    Anyhow, she seems lovely. Very friendly and her little girl is a few months older than Fergie so I think he will learn heaps from her.

    We are going to her house next tuesday evening. :)

    And can I also say how much I love this thread and all of you on it. You mean a lot to me and make parenthood a happy place to be, with a loving community around us :A
