Hope tomorrow goes well Caz. I'm sure the kids will love it.

Evening all
I'm meant to be doing ironing to clear a space for phototaking for ebay but really can't be bothered. I'm coming down with the cold but can't moan as I always slag DH off for having man flu at the slightest sniffle :rotfl:
Caz Good luck with the viewings and hope the kids have fun at the open day.

And Keely random chat is all we do especially later on at night

I only skim read so (((((hugs))))) to anyone in need

Nobody on freecycle wants my 2 baby girls (0-6) sleeping bags (hint hint);) Ready for the charity shop me finks.

Have you seen this Elle http://direct.asda.com/Lindam-Bounce-About/002651819,default,pd.html. I want one!!! QUOTE]


I got one of these at a car boot sale on Sunday for £3!!. Rose did quite well in it but was tired after about 5 mins. Tried her in it another twice and think she's going a bit longer each time. Has a random bounce but hasnt yet got the hang of it x

ARRRRGGGGGHHHH!

Keira has been a nightmare all night, screaming because she can't get to watch what she wants on TV, PEPPA PIG IS NOT ON AT 9PM! She would not listen, started stamping her feet (which just aggravates the bat down below) I lost my rag with her, told her off and put her to bed, and she is now in there screaming and making herself cough, if she pukes then OH can clean it up!

He doesn't understand why I find it such a headache, he's not the one with her 24/7 a day and when they start their screaming and you have a headache already it's not blimmin' nice! He thinks it's so easy....well it would be if your only around them 4hours a day!!

They have plain white long sleeve in our Tesco but only starting at Newborn, not the Early Baby size I wanted

Really must find a Boots with a bigger Mini Mode section.. we only have two little stands in ours and I have a (10% off) voucher to use too!

I've with you on the stopping spending tho.. I've got so much 7.5lb stuff that he's not going to get chance to wear it all, I don't think Going to go "browsing" with my sis in Asda on Wednesday for 9lb things.. :whistle:

It's so difficult to stop spending though. Everything is sooo cute

Our Asda sale doesn't start til Thursday I don't think. I'm sure I saw it said the 17th. It's a pants Asda though, really small, so I might have to visit the huuuge one at MK.

I used the 10% off Mini Mode voucher on Wednesday. However, the till only took 10% off the first item which went through the till, which happened to be the tights. Luckily, the tights and the vests were both £7, so it didn't matter. However, I was expecting the 10% to be off all clothes, not just one item. Does the voucher state it's only for one item? I didn't read mine properly, I just assumed it was for all items of clothing in one transaction.

Talking of Boots, my main reason for going was to collect my changing bag. Over the past couple of months, Boots has sent me the changing bag voucher, plus a £2, a £1 and a 50p voucher for money off Pampers nappies. So, I bought one pack of nappies for £5.98, got the free changing bag plus got £3.50 off the nappies. I wasn't sure if Boots let you use more than one voucher but they did

Caitlin is a Huggies girl, so it'll be interesting to see how she gets on with the Pampers. Hopefully not too well, as I also bought two boxes of 70-odd size three Huggies from Asda last week. She's still in size 2 at the moment. I was just stocking up as they were £18 for two boxes.

I have read so much that I forgot to quote so i'll see what i can remember....

Weezl, there are 18 months between my oldest 2. It was obviously a long time ago and i was much younger then( they are 17 and 15) but they are so close, even now, that i am so pleased that i had them close. I feel that as there is 15 years between Rose and my youngest, that even tho they both adore her, she will more or less fell like an only child and not have that bond.

Angela, I'm sure I saw a photo of you somewhere the other day (maybe on the FB group?? ) and you only looked 30 at the most!!! Either you look far younger than you are or I'm barking up the wrong tree and it wasn't your photo I was looking at

Did you learn anything new today, Krystal, with your tutor visiting? Just wondering if anything else had changed in a confusing fashion, not that you need to learn anything more - hope you see what I mean!

Pampers users.. I'm confused (doesn't take much!). I noticed earlier that you can get Baby Dry in Size 2. We've just changed from using New Baby Size 1 to New Baby Size 2. Is there an advantage/disadvantage to moving to Baby Dry Size 2 instead?

Well, I got given a booklet written by INFACT Canada that will be my bedtime reading tonight.. Hubby will be so pleased but nothing has changed in the last month...

New baby are supposed to deal better with the explosive, every single nappy poopies... I use baby dry but we only use 1 nappy at night so she's not likely to poo... She's finishing 1 packet of size 3s then I think we're going to go into size 4s...

That reminds me I start my bf peer counsellor training on Thursday, I'm really really nervous! What training have you done Krytal? You're a proper lactation consultant aren't you? How did you get to that?

Good gracious no!!! I have a couple of titles... For my work in the hospital I am an infant feeding peer supporter, for the volunteer stuff I'm a registered helper (that's where the continuing learning and supervision sessions come in... If you don't keep up to date you get de-registered) I've done 3 volunteer courses of different levels, and 2 hospital run ones... I'm also a member of an email list full of different people that support breastfeeding, never really contributed but reading all the posts is both educational and enlightening... I'll PM you with a link to join if you want? Its not meant for people looking for help, but for the people who help them...
