Em, i got some magic knicks reduced in m & s at the beginning of August. I was in last week and they still had some. They were reduced from £38 i think down to £3! They were really comfy too x

PS. they were the ones that came right up to your boobs too x

thats the ones i'm after, i dont see the point in the halfway ones - surely if you've got a muffin top its going to look worse cut off??

The child went to bed at 9:30pm. I went to bed at 1:00am. The child woke at 1:30am, then 3am, then 5:22am, then 6:45am, then we got up and slept of the sofa together until 10am. She needed feeding for atleast 30 mins each time she woke too.

She is soooo hungry at the moment. In one week she has gone from drinking only 2 oz in one go to drinking 4oz and coming back for more 10 mins later. My poor little nips are aching from over use. Me no likey this growth spurt thing.

I have to go list some changing bags and baby clothes on ebay now whilst daddy is amusing the child. xxxxxxxxx

Aimee fell over on the way back from church, splatted right on her front and scraped all her elbow... Button, she's got blood! Thankfully being ever prepared, I had a princess plaster in my bag... Amazing things they are, they stop pain aswell as bleeding!

Oh and I have a classy baby... She filled her nappy in a spectacular way, right in the middle of service!

Are you back yet Caz? Did you get rid of everything and make a packet?!

Welcome luce, enjoy your holiday/wedding! Is jake going too?

Weezl, trains to Cardiff are £17 each way and take about 2 hours from Birmingham... I recon I could be down and back in a day and before anyone misses me

My little boy has eaten his first Weetabix gives me a warm cosy feeling, I ate Weetabix for breakfast allll the time for maybe 8 or 9 years as a kid he ate a whole one with milk, as well as 3 strawberries 3 raspberries a small banana an elephant biscuit 2 cheese and onion bites and 2 pieces of cheddar the size of a 50p piece, for lunch! He is so voracious I really think he eats more than half what I do, and I weigh 10+ times what he does!

Stressful morning - OH woke up feeling sniffly and sore-throated so gave E a BF and retreated to bed again. I headed out to Waitrose with him, I had it in my head it opened at 10 on Sundays but of course it's 11... so went to a Starbucks and fed him morsels of raisin croissant while relaxing with a giant coffee. Until he suddenly twisted and lunged for the cup, overturning it and pouring a half-pint of coffee everywhere! :eek: :eek:

Luckily it had been 10 or 15 mins and it had cooled down a fair bit, and luckily it mostly hit the table and my legs, with only a few little splashes on his legs and shoes. He was quite nonplussed by the devastation he had wrought :rolleyes:

So I was torn between going home and changing or gritting my teeth and getting on with it, it was only 10 mins til opening time so I stayed with my coffee-soaked trousers and an increasingly irritable baby. He decided he could not stand the trolley seat any more under any circumstances, about 15 mins before the end of the shop, which left my cradling him in one arm and pushing the trolley with the other while he yanked at my hair and shouted!
A hundred pounds later I got home, OH was still sleeping, gave Elijah 2 minutes of Cbeebies while I unloaded the car then slapped him in highchair to feed him the above-mentioned feast while putting the shopping away.

Then since eating, I had been waiting for him to poo before trying to give him milk-and-nap as otherwise he tends to poop himself awake :mad: but in his roaming he ran into our bedroom, climbed onto sleeping mummy's head then when she yowled, fled across the bed with her hair tangled in his shirt buttons... cue very unhappy mummy and very unhappy Elijah...
When he finally pooped just now, he was at the end of his tether and very keen for sleep, so he wouldn't hold still regardless of what I gave him to play with or tried singing, so there was nappy contents all over the changing mat and my hands by the end

So... whew. Peace reigns now, Elijah on the booby and if he doesn't go to sleep after all that I will give up and flee the country! Need to go prep lamb shoulder for slow-roasting, who was it who had a bad lamb shoulder experience? Come round to mine tonight and you'll see how nice it can be

Krystal - Not the blood! Dear god! Teehee, I never have plasters in my bag, though knowing she is so accident prone I should, I have a 6month old box of mini raisins and a spare pair of knickers for Keira though!


Bruno - I thought babies stopped poo'ing when asleep after a certain amount of months, some instinctive thing? Don't quote me on that though, but I'm so sure Keira stopped pooping whilst asleep at a few months old, so then during night feeds etc, unless she was super heavy, I never changed the nappy IYGWIM?

Sounds like a hungry baby though! Wish I could get Keira to eat cheese....she will eat cheeseCAKE though, does that count as healthy? (She also insists you scrape all bits of coulee off the top too!)
