    I went out! I went to the clinic, and I went for coffee afterwards!

    All went well, I survived, even had a nice time. Toby was brilliant. Had to get him weighed twice, as they thought it might have been written down wrongly. He has gone from the 50th Centile at 8 weeks, to the 98th Centile at 16 weeks!

    ETA - he is now 18lb and 12oz!
    :T:T:T:T I'm proud of you :D

    We found the 12 week jabs to have the worst effect! Hopefully he'll be fine when he wakes up.

    Which reminds me, i've had a letter from my docs asking me to make an appointment for this week, for the next set of jabs. :confused: I am right that its 2, 3 and 4 months, then nothing til around 1?

    Well done Feelie :T Toby must be really enjoying his milk now! :D
    We got weighed on the Wii the other day, and she was 1st 3lbs ( is that 19lbs?) at 26 weeks!
    Don't say that! my poor Edgar was sicky ill from his 8wk jabs I'm hoping he'll be fine with the 12wk ones otherwise I'll be insisting he has the pneumococcal one seperately!

    Hands up who wants a challange ???

    Anyone ??

    OK, well if any of you change your mind, I need a new phone, but not a new contract. I still have 10 months left, but my phone is dying a slow death and dont think it is going to last much longer.
    I am with vodafone at the min, and want something a bit fancier than a normal pick up and answer phone IYKWIM :) No more that £100

    No idea hen amber will get home (and me, bf on demand so have to stay in). Right now her glucose drip is at 0.5ml/h which is as low as it can go. As soon as she gets a blood glucose reading of above 3.0 it comes out. between 2.8 and 3.0 it stays and under 2.8 it goes up. its like standing on a seesaw right now. her colour is bet, not so amber looking (bad joke but it kkeeps me sane).

    and the pump is a metal machine but the cups are plastic, not metal. still sore. medela harmony is great, soft and gentle and easy to use plus I manage to empty the breast properly so the mastitis is easing off a bit.

    off for dinner.

    good luck :p
    Why don't you look into how much phone insurance is, they'll replace the phone when it breaks ;) Is it not still under warranty?

    Oh god, don't give me a new thing to feel bad about, Elijah loves bananas more than anything and eats about 1 a day... :confused:

    they're only bad for Rhys with his kidney problem not all babies ;)

    Whew! Sorry Elle, glad Elijah doesn't have to worry on that one though.

    Sorry, sorry! Yes, Sami's right - it's only Rhys and his dodgy kidneys that need to worry about bananas :rolleyes: I can't stand bananas personally..

    Still catching up..

    Well done Feelie. You managed more than we did today. The only people I've seen face to face today are DH (briefly and grumpily this mornig) the baby and the washing machine repair man!

    And Yay for Toby, he has overtaken Izzy now (at least he weighs more than she did 3 weeks ago - no idea what she is now, must go find out on Thursday. You must be making gold top!

    Fergus: Because his nickname in utero was 'fergus the frugal foetus' and also is scots gaelic for 'splendid one'. Please feel free to correct that caz, r.mac and all our scots contingent!

    Wonder if that applies to Henry :- OH wanted the name Ferguson but we decided that this should be a middle name so we had to look through the books seeing what would go with it and ended up with Henry...

    havent a clue for the next one unless we find out its a girl and then I have an idea.....

    Do any of your kids eat prawn toasts and if so from what age... my sister said that they should be 5 to eat seafood?
