    ETA: Oh and I saw a very brave/daring lady with a baby in a travel system pram, plus a 2/3 year old, plus a massive trolley packed full of huge boxes of nappies and usual shopping, pushing it all round on her own and yelling after the toddler.. _pale_ I can barely manage a full trolley on my own!
    in a packed asda on a sunday!?! :eek:

    but.... she must of had her car (huge amount of shopping) so, why didn't she do what I did and use the baby/toddler combo trolley :confused:

    I'd hope so cos I dread to think how she was going to get it home otherwise! :confused: There were plenty of those trolleys - I saw them when I went to fetch one of the single baby ones.

    Incidentially, how do you get baby from the car into a trolley if the trolleys are in front of the store? Today, I left OH unstrapping Rhys whilst I went to fetch the trolley, but how do you do it on your own? :o (I'm terrible at working out the logistics of these things!)

    ETA: :doh: Suppose you could just carry baby to the trolley... :o

    Anybody know how many nappies come in the ginormous boxes of pampers that Asda have for £12 at the minute? I got Caitlyn a couple of boxes of size 4 on the 2 for £18 but rather typically, the last few nights she's not pee'd quite so much, so I'm wondering if I should get some more size 3s in...

    Nice bush Weezl :cool:

    tee hee kristal;)

    tonight we have had success with a swede and carrot mash with a little cream mixed in to make it a bit more energy rich. We also bought fergie one of those feeders that erin has, with the mesh. He's eaten 3 prunes in it today :)

    He is not the most advanced baby though, regularly gripping the mesh and sucking ravenously at the handle!:D
