MM, good luck with the meeting, my Mum works in a bank and she said they've shortened the hours on 2 of their mortgage people... Don't know if you read my post from yesterday but my Hubby is having to re-interview for his own job next week because they're 'restructuring' his team... I completely agree, NOT a good time!

I'm tearing my hair out with Aimee... She's just turning into a stroppy teenager and she's not even 5 yet... I really don't have a clue what to do with her... She threw a strop while I was on the phone with my Aunt earlier, my Aunt asked me if she was due a period... She really is that bad!

I misread this, and was very confused as I thought you said you were in team blue :rotfl:

Krystal, it's a girl thing. My DD is 9 tomorrow, 9 going on 15. Her moods are terrible but after several bad bouts of tummy pains the doc seems to think she's gonna start her periods very early. I pray not but her hair is really greasy after one day and she has seen the doctor twice recently for bad skin. We are controlling it but black heads are tricky around her nose. I feel so bad for her but all I can do is help her take care of herself. She has been a madame most of her life, girls are so willful. Don't rise to her strops, I find if I shout then she shouts louder so there's no point. Say calmly what you have to say and walk away, then turn your stereo on!

Krystal, sorry to hear about your hubbys position aswell, seems this is just the way things are going to be for a while:mad:
Working in a bank, I always felt I was in a fairly safe job, but now it is far from it, especially since the bank I work for has just been bought over and has said that they are going to save over £3billion in 5 years and the only way they can do this is by cutting quite a few jobs !!

My 6 year old is exactly the same by the way, but we have gone past the strops now and have gotten to the answering back !!
For instance at the weekend she was in a bad mood cuz my sister was supposed to take her swimming, but took ill and couldnt go, so I was in the bad books for this. I said I would take her out if she tidied her room a bit first and I got a hand up in the air with an american attitude of 'I dont think so mother !!'
Then when I said she couldnt go to her friends house for being cheeky to me all day, she told me I ruin everything and why cant I dissapear for a few days for her to have fun !!:rotfl:
An hour later she came downstairs and gave me a big hug crying saying that she just realised if I went away she couldnt see the baby, so would I promise her that I would stay

i know she loves me really

congrats Durham on your baby girl!
visit to gp went ok... BP is still down so hopefully will only need it chekcing once a month, just depneds on what hospital say when i go on17th (really cant wait 2 weeks today!!) may want me to have regular scans as the tablets i take can mean baby doesnt grow as much...

Can anyone tell me what the options are to put babies in in the daytime, i.e. Moses Basket, Rocker, any other options please?

searching_me

catz my DD lived in her bouncer ... rocker whatever you wanna call it for the first 3 months of her life ... and i got one in the same style for this one all ready for when hes born x

mooki i have a black one and bought it from ebay they sell them on ebay and also have a website. just google freedom slings and you can get a good look at the site!

catz i have baby in a coachbuilt silver cross during the day, OH bought it when i was preg with charlie and i used it then. i put it out in the garden when it was summer time and he would sleep for ages then watch the birds happily! Erin is happy to sleep in it and it also keeps her safe from charlie as he would knock the moses basket over. it really depends on how much room you have?

catz747

Got enough room but just not sure if I need 2 of something like moses baskets / rockers or 1 of something for both

cazscoob

i would def say have 2 bouncy chairs erin is in hers at the mo looking around as ive stopped bouncing it lol! the twins would prob be fine for the first few weeks in 1 moses basket but i couldnt say how long before the both started moving about and could make it unsteady?? hmmm bit of a hard one eh!
