    Anyone who buys any of these brands - Lenor, Fairy Auto Dish or Fairy Liquid, Flash, Pampers, Gillette Male Disposable Razors, Pantene, Silvikrin and Nice ‘n Easy - might want to take a look at this :) Particularly if you're stocking up on Pampers in Asda!

    Ooo just found my reciept from Sainsburys where I stocked up on nappies :j

    And I spent over £10 in Boots the other day... must hunt for that receipt aswell!!

    Crikey.. funny how easily you forget all that inconsolable crying! (well inconsolable until you do the 5 S's, obviously!) :o

    Aless, I'm off to Google "songs to the tune of jingle bells".. Anything I've made up so far hasn't worked *rolls eyes*

    I was telling OH about it and said I thought I'd thrown out my receipts (I refuse to dig in the wheelie bin but he claimed he would!), but then found one just peeking out from under the sofa this morning :D Unfortunately you can't have all £5 in vouchers for Pampers, you choose a selection up to the value of £5 over those brands, but there is a £1 off Pampers there :)

    can't remember how much the video elaborates, but his basic theory is that babies are born ~3 months too early (due to evolution and the narrowing of our hips to incorporate walking upright) so babies under 3 months are easily calmed by mimicking the conditions in the womb as this makes them feel the most secure. I realise 'techniques' and 'methods' aren't everyone's cup of tea but my geeky personality is usually drawn to things that are scientifically-based and backed up by rational thinking :). (as opposed to something like Gina Ford which she just made up :p)

    but I'm sure as with everything in life it won't work for everyone!!

    Just logged on and seen that but then again it is at least a £1 more than you would have got if you threw the receipt away and I can get a coupon for OH's razors as well I guess

    I would love that, thank you :)

    Aless, of course! Thank you You're right about JHA :o. I'm so sorry if you're reading this chick, I loved meeting you at cafe junior that time and I'd really love to meet orit-rhian very soon. I guess I'm a bit forgetful when I'm feeling glum, like I was earlier.

    Newbies you are very welcome :D:beer: I don't know much about BF, but I am still here listening. Also older ones, we still need you too!

    In fact everyone is very needed and loved. We are like a full house party of people and their babies and sometimes it's hard to mingle cos you've got stuck by the buffet table. But we'll all catch up with everyone eventually :)

    No problem - i am stuck in the house at the mo with this lingering pre eclamp - but i am sure we will have a chance to meet up soon :D
