Clever Scout & Violet! I was thinking this the other day. L & J have tons of stuff (door signs, bike number plates, mugs etc) with their names on. I've not seen any for V!

I did that yesterday and got rid of the pregnancy and nursing bras that were in my drawer. I also found the bag of condoms the HV gave me on a post natal visit. We hate condoms so they never got used. I asked Josh if he wanted them but he just went betroot red and told me to get stuffed :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:Poor Josh! :rotfl::rotfl:

DKAM - is that account a joint account? If it's not, report him to the police. Have you been given a timeframe for when you can move? Where are you at the moment?

No it's not joint, but I got the money back today thank god!
No timeframe, well a couple of weeks, but I've been thinking about where I want to go, and think I might try and go for my 2nd choice, my first choice is where I used to live and although my bessy mate lives there I moved away for a reason and feel like I'll be taking a backwards step.
My 2nd choice is a seaside town and I think it would be great for the boys, there is so much to do all year round and it's only a few miles further in distance as my 1st choice.

Ok, I need your help. Where can I meet Mums? I'd especially like to meet other babywearing/breastfeeding Mummies.

Also, do you think it is okay if I take LO in a taxi without a carseat? I can't see any other way of getting about, and actually meeting people.

When I was a child I used to get given things with Sue on because they never did Susan. I used to hate it because it's not my name. These days I would have thought you could get any name on eBay.

Omg - how the heck do you get a baby to swallow gripe water then??! Lol.

I didn't get to a chemist for a syringe, was rushing about mad style to get straight from school to a party so got it from Asda and tried to give her it on a spoon but she's having none of it :eek:

Help!

Itcan be fiddly but in the past with Aston I put a small bit in the teat of a bottle and put it in his mouth so he could suck and swallow.

battery is dying, Krystal depressed me (I was hoping to crack it open and fix it myself see) and the PC upstairs is soooo slow I may be back on next year.

feelie, dont know about meeting mums, but its against the law to take a baby without a seat in a car. When Jas was younger and I had no car, I always asked the taxi firm to send me a driver that would be still working when I was going to be going home again and was allowed to keep the car seat in their boot while I was away

It isn't illegal in Taxis here, I am uncomfortable with the idea, but I'm so isolated and worried about Toby being stuck inside, never seeing anyone.

I couldn't leave a seat with the taxi, as we only have Hackney Carriages, no boot.

Don't know about meeting mums but taxis are one of the few exceptions where you are allowed to not use a carseat.

Perhaps if you find some online AP style groups you might be able to find out from them where to look for RL groups like that?
