    oh, on the subject of chocolates, i can recommend gu caramels, expensive as they are :drool: £2.99 for a tiny box from tesco, got my nan some for her birthday and they are a-m-a-zing, mouth watering thinking about them!

    MM i'm thinking that, i just dont get what there is to do except upgrade parts of the hospital?!
    they often have the little boxes of 3 puds on BOGOF in tesco mmmmmmmmmm!

    Tia can you belive there was an abandonded loola outside the gypo's house on mum's estate :confused: it's just disappeared after being on the pavement for almost a month! - they must be raking in the benefits to be able o do that!

    I'd have piki=piked it up and sold it!
    Tia - get him to read this, research saying rear facing pushchairs are good for babies.

    When I swapped to a rear facing I certainly talked to DD more - yes I am the mad woman walking down the road singing nursery rhymes to my DD whilst she giggles at me.

    MDW

    She's all awake now in the carry cot of the twister and I don't want to miss out on that when she outgrows the carrycot (8cm and counting). we did a bit about the parent facing stuff at college as part of child development.
    how muc is the covwer?

    Think it was £15, £20 tops but the cheapest place for a screen replacement or hinge replacement is £40 and we have had both.

    OK lovelies, my dishes are done, stuff is sterilising for tomorrow and I'm about to go and finish the final packing bits. I have a complete change of clothes, Molly has about four, and Husband has a pile of socks, a pair of undercrackers and a spare shirt. We're testing "fully BF baby and professional mama at a conference" - preliminary snag already averted when we called the hotel to make sure they had a microwave/kettle/baby bed for our use and it turns out the publishers booked me a single room :eek:

    Back late Friday - don't talk too much while I'm away :)

    But does Fergie not do circuits of the cot and set the alarm off constantly? I had to stop using mine at 6mths I was sick of it going off EVERY night because he is never in the same place in the cot for more than an hour!! or so it seems.
    The furthest Caitlyn goes when asleep is on to her side... She just conks out and doesn't move!

    Krystal, I quite like the idea of BLW especially after seeing pics!
    It's so easy Tia!! So much less stress and makes a fair bit of sense when you read about it...

    Krystal, sorry you're too slow for CP, added to mental note too xx

    Edgar is a drooling, slobbering, snotty, wriggling, whingy, non feeding little booger today - gaaahhhh!
    TY hun, hope Edgar cheers up soon... Caitlyn got over her snottyness relatively quickly... Although nothing seems quick when you haven't had sleep!

    My poor baby just fell forward with one of her stacking cups in her mouth... She made the roof of her mouth bleed :( She cried a bit and then shouted a lot after so it must have really hurt... I don't think I helped matters when I then had to fish a bit of dried up orange peel out of her mouth... I must have more words with Aimee about dropping things on the carpet! Not that it will do any good! :rolleyes:

    Ooh, I think that's hubby back!
