thanks MFD she sounds so funny with her croaky voice! i have the docs on wed and know myself im going backwards rather than forwards right now? OH has had to drop stuff with his dad so isnt here just now, he is trying so hard i just feel im pushing him away?

i just hope im here when she crawls or ill be so gutted! she looks so tiny to be doing it and benjamin is younger! she has a bruise already from lauching herself so no doubt we will both have a few bruised heads and faces the next few weeks lol!

I don't think Benjamin would have done it yet if it wasn't for DSS spurring him on!! Benjamin absolutely adores his big brother - DSS has been on holiday so we haven't seen him for 2 weeks and I was a little worried that Benjamin wouldn't recognise DSS IYSWIM. But as soon as DSS arrived this morning Benjamin had the biggest smile for him and eyes for nobody else
It melts my heart!


I have never been there Caz but sometimes I find I just need to give in and have a hug and a cry Even when I am raging with DH I will go for a hug!!

Off to bed now as im shattered. Dont talk too much as this is the bit i cant keep up with. When i get up in the morning there are so many pages to catch up on!!!

Angela - this is also the bit where it turns to waffle and drivel!!! Everyone gets chatty later on but it is mainly just 'stuff'!! I wouldn't worry, just pick up again tomorrow!!!

Chopsticks, better that way round than too much powder in the water... She'll be getting more nutrition from your breastmilk that 1 bottle of formula anyway so once won't hurt...

Thanks hun. I can't believe it. I'd already measured out four scoops and told him earlier in the day the pot had four scoops in but he obviously forgot what I'd said (he had been out and had a couple of drinks but wasn't p**sed) and didn't add another one too it :mad:

I want to drop the formula feeds if I can over the next few weeks.

A friend of a friend does 100% formula feeds and she only gives her baby the ready cartons. She reckons that it costs her £21 a week to buy the cartons :eek:

I have a bit of a dilemma....Once we are both at Uni the kids will be entitled to free school meals, BUT ALL their friends have pack lunches.

I would give them a trial and see how they feel. All the Durham schools are getting free school dinners for everyone from September - some pilot scheme. James isn't sure about stopping for dinners, but he's going to give it a go and see how it goes.

I don't 'do' freecycle coz all I hear is bad things from you lot about it!:p

I've had mixed feelings with it. I ignore rude people and give stuff to people who seem genuine. The best one was giving away a guinea pig hutch, and I got an email from the guinea pigs telling me how much they liked their new home :rotfl:

Aww bless!
I'd only ever be getting rid of stuff coz we can afford to buy things [STRIKE]and I'm a bit of a snob[/STRIKE] so I'd feel guilty about getting something for free that I can afford over someone else who could be desperate:o


I'll have to talk to FIL about booking the christening (he'll be doing the ceremony ) need to make sure BIL will be able to come home from uni
I'll be showing you all my efforts at making a playdoh baby too - should be fun!!

:rotfl: Oh, ha ha Sorry, I realise now I sounded thick! I meant he's growing out of them lengthways DESPITE him not being any where near 7.5lbs yet He's still titchy lengthways according to the good ol' growth charts anyway so I think it's the sizing that's wrong! :rolleyes:

You didn't sound thick at all!!! Don't say things like that! You know how I love to tease I just couldn't resist

Corr, can't you tell I had cabbage on my carvery dinner today... Poor hubby... Must be reminiscent of when I was pregnant...

Have to say that my bottom has not quite recovered from being pregnant
We were trying to go for a carvery at the Broadway in Walsall today but Benjamin didn't fancy it!!!


Caz - Abi is SOOO cute!!! Erin is too LOL but Abi has that blue-eyed, blonde curls mischief thang going on

I only ask for things that someone might have in the back of a cupboard and have been meaning to get rid of but haven't gotten round to it.

There was one guy on our group who kept asking for things for the gaming room in his new loft conversion, including black leather reclining chair (must be in very good condition) and a 32"+ tv for playing his games on.. Oh yes, bet he was inundated with offers for those! :rolleyes:
