  • Morning all,

    3 Im with you, Lexi has been awake since 4!
    But it seems she has a cold coming on :( Bless she is really struggling feeding as she cant breathe through her nose ....
    I have Olbas oil on a tissue hanging round, she''ll probably end up with calpol as she has a bit of a temp. Is there anything else I can do to help her out? I hate it when Joshua and Lexi are ill.

    Sorry MFD I probably should have introduced myself properly I was forgetting you might not know who I was :o Its just with meeting everyone before it completely went out the window! You must have been grabbing a coffee when Lexi was shouting and demanding I shared my sorbet with her ;) But she is an angel! Thanks.

    Bruno, E has got it alright, from here on in its eyes in the back of your head, bum and a whole host of other usefull places .... seems you knows this already - shoe polish Lol!

    Elle you cant be scared were all lovely even if I do say so myself ;) and you talk so much on here (hehe) that it would be quiet without you! :p

  • Thankyou Bruno & Choppy for all your help xx

    Reminds me why I love you all x:D

    Right I am off to my bed to try and sleep, catch you all later x

    Actually, for me, it obviously depends on date, and how Andrew is doing at that point. We're probably not up for any meets until next year, seeing as he wasn't due until November so probably won't escape until then. Marley was vaguely suggesting the idea of a huge MSE picnic in Heaton Park, Manc, next summer .........

    Sounds good! The biannual MSE parents meet. :D

    I also remember reading on here about a teething powder that everyone said was really good. Can't remember what it was called though :o

    Ashton & Parsons teething powders. I swore by them with my older two - they settle the tummy, which is also a strange effect of teething.

    I was thinking of blaming teething for our 5am start this morning, but i can't see or feel anything. But she's very drooly and chewing everything in sight.

    morning - 3, I also rate ashton parsons powders. Amazing things!

    bruno - we also get the demented ear tugging/pulling with teeth. It's a sign of pain (and is the baby signing sign for pain too!).

    I would love to meet up, but Birmingham is just not an option for me I'm afraid. You should all come to boony scotland ;) Or perhaps we could all go to centre parks at whinfell (lake district) together (can we combine clubcard vouchers, get martin to sponsor us and all keep those fingers crossed for winning the lottery?!)

    r.mac, you are so wise and wonderful, that post was lovely and so insightful!
    I can't promise that all my replies will illicit this response :p
  • Morning all :D

    Hubby managed to wake the baby at 1am and then he went happily to sleep while I had to lie there feeding her, trying to settle her again... She fed twice but still decided she needed a 4:30 feed!

    She's very happy now though, bobbing around in the jumperoo... Just watched the cable guy fit our new V box (although I don't know how I'm going to work it, there's no remote!)... I'm amazed they came so early!! Means I can sod off out for the day now if I fancy it... Not sure I fancy it yet... But the option is there...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    I'll be there! I've not been to heaton park for years. Poor Andrew would think he was a rock star with everyone dying to see him :)
