Blimey!!! Lots of congratulations (and a bit of jelousy too ) , but blimey all the same! How are you feeling?

Thanks Ladybird and to all the other lovely congratulators!!!

I've been pretty well actually! Fewer symptoms than with F, which is great because I kinda need it to be that way IYSWIM?! The main issue seems to be if we're both ravenously hungry at the same time

Love weezl x

Huge congratulations and welcome to Glam, Fitzilian and Xmaslolly.

Fitzililan - I've just looked at your FB pics and you have a real cutie there! I love Alfie's stripy jumper in photo 28. Feel free to ignore the question, but how have things been with ex-DH?

Weezl - Wow wow wow!! You are one brave lady! Seriously though, congratulations - fab news! Have fun at rhyme time. I took Caitlin for a taster session at our library a few weeks ago and we're going to start going weekly from next week.

MM - Well done to Dylan (and also to mummy for all her hard work)

Caz - Fab news on the house. Fingers crossed it goes OK for you. The kitchen looks lovely. I have no idea how to pronounce where it is though!

Em - I really like the dress you've chosen. I'm going to be a bridesmaid for my sis next summer and she keeps talking about shopping for dresses but I want to get rid of my jelly belly first.

Tara - how are the wedding and christening plans going?

2, Also, how do people manage to go to the toilet when say for instance you are out shopping with a pram. Do the baby changing areas have a toilet, do you go in disabled loos, as there's more room?

A similar question was raised in the Arms area of the forum a day or two ago! A good number of people were in favour of using the disabled/accessible toilet, if no suitable family toilets are available. But up to what age of child?

Elle, I forgot to log on at 3am. I swear I can express in my sleep :rotfl:

Hi all,

Just a short msg as I'm typing one-handed. I have been reading but not posting as I've been finding things tough the past week. Not really sure why, probably the lack of sleep and C crying most of the time.

Anyway, she was in a much better mood yesterday and has woken up in a good mood today, so hopefully it'll continue!!

Choppy, sorry you've had a bad week

Any idea what's been up with C? Is she on a growth spurt? Teeth? Jabs?

Take care of yourself lovely

Thank you sweetie.

I'm not too sure. She had her jabs two weeks ago and although she wasn't ill as such, they really knocked her for six. Her sleeping routine went out of the window and I think she's been over tired. Up until yesterday, the most she'd slept in the daytime any day since her jabs was 1 hour!

Yesterday, she had an hour in the morning and about 90mins in the afternoon, and she slept lots better at night too. She didn't fall asleep until about 9pm (she's usually asleep by 8pm at the latest) but she didn't wake up until 5:45 today so that was excellent. I had about six hours uninterrupted sleep, so I feel better and she seems in a good mood, although is constantly feeding (must be catching up from her missed food in the night ), hence why we're still in bed. Must get up now though as need to be out the door at 10am and neither of us are washed or dressed :eek:

weezl, how is fergie's bum? seth is constipated too he's done huge lumpy poops all yesterday and this morning, his little bum is SO red and sore between the cheeks, poor baby mind you when i say huge i mean wide and solid, but quite small really. i've been trying to get water into him but he just seems to bring it back up, keeps down food and milk though? i have only fed him fruit (apples, apricots, peaches etc, nothing banana-y!) the last couple of days to try and sort him out, but no luck yet. am hoping he is just clearing a bit of a buildup

Hi Tigs :wave:

How's Andrew doing?

Weezl - congrats - I know (aside from certainly not wanting to!) that hubby would probably file for divorce or try to get me sectioned if told him that I wanted another baby now let alone told him I was pregnant! :eek:!!!!
Just be extra extra careful about your diet and supplements because your body hasn't had a chance to replenish the stores yet or recover. Especially calcium and iron which I'm sure you know...

bear - tesco's, Asda etc all have good facilities in my experience. Mothercare, Mama's & Papa's and so on also have changingrooms/loos that allow you to get sorted
Failing all else (and if the disabled loo's are unavailable/locked etc) then loo's with several stalls are a better bet if you can find them - leave the cubicle door slightly ajar if need be
You do just manage though... the first trip out is a bit scary but then you just get used to it and you will probably develop "mum courage" You will have NO problems asking people if they have a large loo or other odd questions
