    Susan I do think that prams are ridiculously over priced as with lots of baby related items :rolleyes: I love them tho and I think once Chris is more consistantly walking I'll become a pram tart :o

    I think all the big business are out to make as much money as possible so they invest a lot in trying to persuade people that they need all sorts of fancy things for their babies. (Although I'm not saying that prams and puschairs are unnecessary or that people should always buy a bottom of the range one or that everything that comes out is a gimmick.) I've never been into consumerism though - my mum said when I was little, all the other children would have huge lists of what they wanted for Christmas but when people asked me what I wanted I would say, "I don't know."

    Hi ladies. Despite thinking i would spend ages on here once OH was back at work, i seem to be lacking.

    This getting two kids up and ready in time for school is a nightmare. Have to get organised with Alex's feed, to make sure the next one doesn't co-incide with the school run. And walking in the horrid rain last week was a nightmare. So need a coat / jacket with a hood. Sick of getting wet through, as umberella and pram is impossible.

    Sorry haven't read back, would be here for days. Hope everyone is doing well and will try to keep up. Alex currently asleep and i am now debating with myself whether to go to town, as it is actually a nice day, and its a shame to stay in. Oops should have put a wash on earlier and i could have it out in the sun, instead of sticking it in the dryer. Not MSE there.

    Have had a lovely weekend, two meals out - again not MSE, but tired mummys deserve a treat don't they. Saturday was a girlie lunch, which included 2 glasses of wine - first drink i've had since New Years Eve. And Sunday was family lunch out, paid by OH after his win on the Arc de truimphe Horse Race. :T

    Now someone help me, Go to wigan town centre and may be spend what i don't have, or sit in and waste the lovely day?

    Can I get in on the graph? What do you need to know? Do you want me to PM the info?

    You can PM or post on here. Just need the weights (in KG if poss) and weeks (eg Birth 3.45 Week 3 4.34 week 5 7.78 etc)

    Is there a limit on how many weights you want. I have about a years worth for Henry but theres about 27 of them?

    I've done the graph up to a year, do any weights up till then. I'll enter all of them, don't worry if its a lot!

    I will dig mine out later Feelie if you don't mind.

    I'd be interested to see my DS's. All three were similar weights at birth, but Joe was a huge fat pudding by 6 months old! :o

    I'm going to try and get mine and my brothers, as Mum says we grew in a similar way to Toby. My Bro was a plump baby.

    I think it is fascinating to see how differently babies grow. I'll keep it updated as we get more weigh-ins.
    Stay-at-home, attached Mummy to a 23lb 10oz, 11 month old baby boy.
