    *rushes on quickly, will catch up later*

    Boots points redeem at 1p per point right?

    So if a medicine is £1.99 and comes with 200 points, you make a penny bonus each time you buy it?

    Hmm, all of our teats have a 1 on them so they must all be slow flow then. But the box of bottles I originally had said they were variflow (99% sure!!!). :o Might have to go and buy some variflow ones then and check them out, thanks! Although Holly doesn't seem to have the same problems as Jack and Kian.

    How is Jack's belly button?

    Also, another question from the novice to anyone more experienced....when do you switch to a bigger nappy size? As the sizes seem to overlap, I am unsure whether to move to size 2 Pampers. The size 1 are leaving marks on Holly's legs, but the size 2 look quite big. Not sure if the marks just mean they are a snug fit or too tight. She doesn't seem to complain but I don't want to hurt her!

    Thanks!

    His belly button is much better thank! Jack has been in Size 2's for a while now and they do look big but then I think nappies are supposed to look like they are taking over the body lol!!

    Fitz just try a size 2 and see how it looks, thats what I do :) I suggest moving her up as quick as possible because once she gets in sz3 you can use the cheaper super dry/baby dry/active fit/natural fit ones ;)

    Once I have finished the 2's I am going to try the 3's and hope they fit cos I stocked up on them! ;)
    Hit ignore tara !!

    That's what I would do if I was on FB :p

    My baby boy is worrying me :( He keeps screaming when I put the bottle in his mouth and I just checked his temp and it was 34.1 degrees :eek: which apparently is way too low. He's been sleeping on me under a light blanket this morning so should b quite warm, he's sleeping again now so am going to try leave it 5 and then check his temp again.
    He feels warm but the thermometer is telling me otherwise!

    Fairy post arrived :j Clever fairies must have known I had to re-use yesterdays because I had run out and didnt want to risk a rash :D (thank you Fairies)

    Fairy post will be posting later today or tomorrow morning. (Glam PM your address I found a 2.5tog sleeping bag that had been hidden in a bag of bigger clothes, knew I had just not where I had it)

    Bruno, if Elija is feeling better expect a few night feeds till he 'makes up' for his ill days and possibly the odd vomit over the next week. The boys both did this when they had GE, it's horrid!

    Glam, one GP said 8 weeks, the other said 12 weeks post birth before a smear.

    Fitzio, I just moved Amber into size 2 nappies because poo kept escaping the size 1. They look huge and look like they should leak more, but don't. They hold more pee too, so just pop a size 2 on and see how it goes.

    Tara, hit ignore and play dumb. I usually say 'oh, I just ignore all friend requests cos I get loads from spammers, will try and fix it later...' course, I can never work out how to fix it sadly :D

    Glam, what thermometer have you got? We use a calpol ear one and it's a load of crap, you have to 'heat it up' a few times before it works right. Trust the mummy thermometer :rotfl:;)
