Isn't that the stoopidest rule ever though AM... We get WTC because hubby's income is low... But because we get WTC it cancels out other help like healthy start and free school meals...

Am hoping Caitlyn's in a better mood today... Don't fancy another day of screaming! We had an odd night... She settled at about 11:30 and at 2:17 was really fidgetting around... I think she filled her nappy because she went all quiet again and then slept till 4... I kind of dozed just waiting for her to wake up... Then when she was in our bed, I just dozed again, couldn't quite drop off properly this morning so I'm really tired today... Got the health visitor coming sometime between 11 and 1 too... Plus I have to wait for tesco... Don't think I'll make it to my other booby group this afternoon unless they turn up early...

Yep :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

We've had a busy day today. DH's birthday was yesterday, so he had the day off today. This morning we went to baby signing with my Mum, while he pootled round town, then this afternoon we went to a pick your own and got lots of strawberries One of my birthday presents was a jam kettle, so I'm going to try it out tomorrow!

I'm now stuck on the sofa with a sleeping baby on me. We have to eat tea soon then go water the allotment, but I don't want to wake her up till I really need to. I had good intentions re the washing up this afternoon, but i haven't got Mr Tickle arms (how useful would they be???!!!) so it will have to wait. At least we have last nights left over takeaway for tea !

Thanks for advice about boobies.

Is it too early for teething? We've had a few fussy days and he has a small white gump on his gum. Looks just like a tooth poking through, but he is only 2 months!

Ryan has had a small white bump on his gum from birth, no tooth yet!
But the last 2 days he seems to be really biting down on his teats, and dribbling like noones business, but i think it's just a baby thing.
When i was in hospital after having DS2, I was reading a magazine (bella or sommat) and a woman had a baby that was born with teeth! :rotfl:

Lu T - I can't even remember the last time I had any fun with DH... he flipped about having sex with his baby daughter in there *sigh* - highly intelligent bloke, knows he wouldn't hurt the baby, but could NOT get in the mood to do it with her in there... freaked him totally!
And I am guessing we're looking at another 2-3 weeks before I am "matchfit" again if not longer... cut and 2nd degree tear means no matter HOW much I want it he's not willing to risk damaging any of the stitches lol
Oh and my DH is an odd person... he doesn't like getting BJs sso not even like I can tempt him with that! grrrrrr
Once Roo was overdue I tried EVERYTHING to get him interested - threats, promises and what have you - but he was having none of it! Selfish !!!!!!! :rotfl:

OMG are you for real! :eek:
Never in my life have I met a man who dont like them.
But then i am very good at it so who could resisit (joke!) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

if poo looks yellow with curdled milk in it and plenty of wet nappies then you're doing fine feely stop worrying! as you said he'd soon let you know if you were starving him lol

Benjamins has never looked like it had curdled milk in it...maybe explains why you are getting so many

Yellow and smooth here.


Feelie - green poo can be a sign that they are not getting enough milk (but can also be a sign of other things)



Edit - or maybe that's why we don't get many poops???

hello dmbw!

caz you and your pram obsession :rotfl: glad to hear your OH has a job!

we went to view the house today, its everything we want and need - walking distance of both our works, walking distance of the town centre, close to friends and family the lounge is the same size as the whole of our current flat AND theres a lovely garden! all for £45 a month more than what we pay at the moment we have put our holding deposit down on it and now need to find £400 in a month :eek::eek: its going to be a very tough squeeze but we will just have to find it from somewhere! we cant pass it up its too perfect!

Sami - I home-dyed on Sat and ended up ginger rather than the blonde I was aiming for!!! I need to put another colour on!
Thing is, these days I don't look at myself in the mirror (we don't even have a mirror downstairs) so I keep forgetting that I have a ginger bonce :rotfl:

That's why I was thinking of Henna to hide the blonde highlights and hopefully not end up with green/orange hair

I'm constantly starving today but also thirsty so wanting juicy fruit, is it ok to eat lots of fruit or will it make Ed poop even more? (I've been sticking to apples n pears mainly and only having 1 satsuma a day)
