    Em - I'd only email BB if they haven't sent the review form after 5 weeks and I just say I've had this 5 weeks so I'm ready for the form whenever. I also always email them to say I've received something - just call me a swat

    Just... do they look at you like a plum when you walk in groaning under the weight of a gignorormonormous parcel? :D

    Nah - I take so much stuff in they have said as it will be so busy in the next few weeks, I can drop parcels off in the morning, they will process throughout the day and I can go and pay later on :j No more queuing or holding up the queue :cool:

    Jack is still wide awake :rolleyes: keeps crying, falling asleep, pop him in his Mosey and he wakes up!

    Swat :p However they will remember you so might be more likely to get more stuff!!

    When I went on the Samsonite webby I thought it was a changing bag and got all excited cos I was only saying today I need a bigger bag! Especially now I have my funky flask!

    Nando's had a bottle warmer and this poor girl must have put the bottle in it 3 times and it was still cold so I offered her my hot water! I love new stuff - I'm such a show off!

    Well, supposed to go to bed at 1pm but OH & BIL are playing computer!

    Eeek - I've got a sick baby?

    She went up to bed as normal, but was moaning about an hour ago so I went up to find her cot covered in sick, most green beans :eek:

    We changed her and the cot, then gave her a bottle (possibly a bad idea). She brought it straight back up with some more green beans! :confused:

    What do I do, and when do I worry?

    She's downstairs now, asleep on me.



    Aw - poor violet, she really didn't like those green beans.

    When Benjamin was really sick I just took him to bed with me. I hardly slept but he did and if he started to retch again I was ready with muslins and cuddles...chuck OH out of the bed if necessary.

    Having said that - when Benjamin was up til 10.30pm on Sat he managed to make himself sick at some point (probably the excitement at throwing toy no. 6 out of his cot!!) but I didn't notice until I put him back down asleep...so I just left it, with the bottom of his sleeping bag in the sick all night :o

    There was no way I was moving him again once he was down!!

    Bad mummy!!!

    anyone watching F word??? ... yummmmmy squid :D x
    :)Still searching .....:)
  • I quoted and replied to loads of things before then Isla started crying and my mum helpfully shut my netbook down and Ive lost all my replies!

    Erm, from memory then........

    Gisi - hurt my hand as when I got to hospital and they examined me my waters then went and their was meconium in them so had to have a canula put in my hand. During the final pushing stage they took the gas and air off me to get me to concentrate on pushing and I was gripping the handles either side and bent the canula tube backwards resulting in two fingers being completely numb and a constant pins and needles which is still there now! They think Ive got carpal tunnel along with damaging some nerves so got to wear the support for now and see the physio soon.

    TC meet- I'll definately try and get to the next one. Tigs, you must be really close to me if Ashton Ikea's your nearest.

    MFD - OH's being fantastic. He changes nappies, looks after me, settles Isla in the night, minds her while I have a bath or need 5 mins out and basically runs round after me. I wouldnt swap him for the world!

    Bizziebaby sent me a fab monitor, I made the mistake though of straying from the preg thread and posting on shop but dont drop that I thought they were good as someone had posted they were a con. I said lots of ladies on here and the preg thread were members and had received good products and got made out to be a liar! Last time I leave the safety of the marriages board :o

    BF with inverted nipples :o No diagrams Im afraid just perseverance. It is a struggle and Im resorting to nipple shields for some feeds rather than stressing Isla out too much. Its heaartbreaking when she's really calm before a feed then gets worked up because I cant get enough for her to latch onto. Loads of liquid poo's though and she's put weight on so Im glad she's definately getting plenty. And Im going to booby group next week :D

    Glam I put Isla in her wrap sling today and she loved it. She looked so calm and content.

    And who mentioned next baby?! :eek: Their will be no getting to the hospital quicker as Im not doing that again :rotfl:

    Sorry for the mega post.

    OMG an ebay buyer is doing my head in! She has sent me 18 messages today! The last 6 have been asking questions about the item which I posted today - has it got this, does this work with it? Um, shoudlnt you have asked that before?!
    Fortunately, it had what she wanted but if I refresh eBay and see anymore messages I'm gonna scream! :mad:

    3 - I missed your post about Vi! Lots of cuddles are in order - is she going to MIL tomorrow?
