    Jillie - mine does that :)

    Krystal is fully BLW, a few other have done a mix, I think Susan did fully BLW too
    I'm sort of BLW but I really need to get my act together and read up on it properly :o Ed had tried lettuce, roast sweet pot, roast spud, bread and cucumber. He didn't like the pots n bread, they kinda got stuck on his tongue and just made him gag but he loved sucking the cucumber n lettuce to death :D

    I hate it when that happens elle - if you'd known sooner you could've planned something else instead.

    Sorry just bitting and bobbing today - Caitlyn seems to hate it when i sit down :rolleyes:

    Ooh btw - is anyone here planning on/doing BLW?

    I'm going to finally get this online shop finished, then go out for something nice for tea, methinks :) Back in time for X Factor of course!

    I did want to do BLW but we can't with Rhys - have to make sure he is actually eating to help his weight gain. I think BLW is more about getting a taste for things but not necessarily eating a lot of them.

    MFD, Krystal and Susan all did/are doing it, I think :)

    Right girls need some advice, I'm doing pots of gold (off Xmas thread) for Henry's nursery helpers but one of them is a Muslim so should I put a Scratchcard in or not? Dont want to offend her but then hers would be different to others ?

    Sami, are all Mei Tai slings the same and "Joey" was the brand name you and Glam got, or is it a different style of mei tai? :confused:

    Am not hugely convinced we NEED one, just browsing.. ;)

    Tara - I've got a chicco polly in seventy it nice but has lots of crevices (sp?) for the food to get in so I'd avoid that one.
    silver cross do one like MM described

    I agree, I've got Chicco Polly in Cottage. I think it might be a bit less crevicey(?) when the extra padded bit is taken off?


    Boys room
    Going to start stripping the wallpaper today and hopefully have that off by Monday then just filling and a teeny bit of plastering to do, oh and cutting away some pipes, and putting some skirting boards on....than we can put on the lining paper and paint:D

    Maz - is she a strict muslim do you know? I would think if she's not a strict one then put it in and she could just give it to a friend?? I dunno :o

    Elle Mei tai means that it is a sort of square piece of fabric with 4 straps.
    Joey is just a brand.
    does that make sense?
    mei tai is to slings what 'bootcut' is to jeans :)

    Yup, ta :) OH likes the idea but I'm awaiting an opportunity of "this would be so much better/easier if we had a sling".. ;) :cool: Plus we already have two Tomy carriers (which OH isn't keen on cos of all the clips and whatnot) and a ring sling (which Rhys isn't keen on) :rolleyes:
