    I am living in bra and knickers as soon as I get home from work - it's too hot for me!

    Thanks Krystal - these are the xtra benefits compared to current job - sick pay, maternity pay (next time round), creche at the hospital, £5 off childcare per day, bump and baby events including baby yoga and baby massage!!
    Sounds great Glam, and they must really want you if they're willing to take you on pregnant! Well done you :D (How have your current employers taken it?)

    I love mornings... My miserable baby is usually quite happy in the morning... If only her sleep pattern would get a bit longer then I wouldn't feel quite so tired...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    I have been living in Wales for 16 yrs and never knew how to spell that!- lovely word...:)
    I was wondering whether it was Welsh or a typo but I couldn't figure out what it could be a typo for.

    you pronounce it to rhyme with 'butch' and with a hard c sound at the beginning. It's like a hug with a squeeze.

    Chocaholic - no idea I'm afraid - any benefits are a mystery to me other than I don't get any LOL
    Vouchers are a tricky one tho - your post spurred me on to start looking at day car for madam yesterday and I can't decide on whether to go for nursery or child minder! I guess childminders don't take the vouchers tho? :confused:
    What is super attractive to me about a childminder is that they are often more flexible if our working hours are messed up and in our jobs it's easy for that to happen sadly :( Or to get stuck in traffic... if they took the vouchers it would be totally perfect!

    I would check that actually as I think that some do, I think it depends which childcare provider your company use.

    Another random question while we are on nurseries - any reccomendations for name labels?

    Izzy made me laugh last night when I went in to her at 3am she had turned herself round sideways in her cot, rolled all the way to the end and when I went in she was on her front at one end. I don't think she cried for me till she got to one end and couldn't remember how to roll in the other direction!

    Well we're just waiting for noon to happen along - Daddy will be home early to come with us to the hospital appointment for Alexandra's hip check and her godfather is scouring the US base for a decent air con unit for us bless him! He's such a star :D
    I'm currently sat in the livingroom with Alexandra in her basket, the dog on the floor exhausted and 9 flies :eek: This is fly invasion week i think!

    I personally prefer Childminders as they look after your LO similar to how you would if you were staying at home but other's like the fact nursery is more structured.
    I've heard of childminders taking vouchers too :)
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
