Time, the amount of blood in pink milk would be so small it is unlikely to have an effect on the tummy. Just be aware that over enthusiastic pumping can break capilliaries in the breast and cause little bleeds.

I was just thinking, If you aren't expressing and are just simply breastfeeding, How would you know that the milk was pink,quite worrying if it could be harmful? :eek:

Mrs T you and me can be in the other club together! I have a free change bag too. And 2 handbags And goodness me yes! definately less clothes than fergus! Mind you he goes up a size so often that would be pretty hard to sustain as an adult!

When did everyone move away from babygros and dress their little ones in clothes, like trousers, tshirts and dresses?

About fiveish months, trousers didn't seem to help her wind issues so I started off with dresses and dungerees :-) Now I do like mfd proper clothes in the day sleepsuits at night

We have the same being-mistaken-for-a-boy problem when not in dresses. Might have to pick her up a couple of girlie tops after payday I think.

When I went to the doctors a while ago I had Celia in bright pink trousers, a bright pink and acid green stripey top (it's as lurid and hideous as it sounds I love it!) with a bunny on and someone still asked me "How old is he?" I kid you not!

Excellent - what shall we call ourselves???

Speaking of not having enough shoes, bags and clothes... last night I turned round to hubby on the other sofa and said "if you win this contract and get the £30k bonus... I want £500 for a new wardrobe!"... and bless his socks... his reply was:
"if you want £500 for a new wardrobe you can have it now if it will make you feel happier?"
Now in all fairness I spend SO little on my clothes and he's probably never heard me utter those words before (infact £50 on anything for my wardrobe is a major event!) so it's not like we're just chucking £500 at wardrobes on a regular basis in this house
However I want to loose a bit more weight first and get a little fitter and that would fit with when he'll get the bonus if it happens... the latest he'd get it is January (physically in paycheck) but could be november :eek:
And it might not be £30k before tax - could be as little as £10k before tax And I know that sounds a lot but if we get it then all of it (nearly) will be going towards a new house and paying off debts

,

Is there such a thing as a pram mat? My hallway is getting really grubby when I'm bringing it in out of the rain. Something washable would be ideal. What do you all use?

Have you got a garage or a shed?

I used to stick the pram in the garage to save bringing it into the house. It was a huge Silver Cross Kensington though so takes up masses of room.

If we were just at home I used to leave Charlotte in babygro's until she got to the crawling stage. Knees in babygro's are not designed for crawling! I used to put her in clothes when we went out.

Nice to meet you. Hope you enjoy the fun

Another day at home for us. Charlotte's chicken pox is starting to go crusty and no more new spots have appeared overnight, so hopefully it's on it's way. She's been lucky as the spots have mainly only been on her torso, so she doesn't look like she's got it. She hasn't been ill with it either - just a bit clingy with me. They've started itching a bit now as she keeps telling me she's itchy and needs the special cream on
