Beenie - FWIW, a mei tai will far outlast what you think, I think. I found the pouch slings hurt my back after a very short time but the mei tai is more comfy and designed to hold a lot more weight - and once Amber gets older she go on your back instead. I got mine off Etsy (in fact it's the same as GISI's!) for a bit cheaper than buying 1 from the UK, but you can also sometimes get lucky on eBay and get them even cheaper.

Susan - they just give baby something to chew on to encourage the teeth coming through and to relieve some of the pain (by chewing).
The great thing about Sophie is that they can chew on different bits to get to different parts of their mouth (the legs, the head etc) so she works for all their teeth. In theory you need different shaped teethers to get to different teeth.

Sami started me on Sophie the first time we met and Sami told me it was THE designer baby toy!!! I had to have one!!



Tia - Amber is clearly an individual

hmmm.... must look into this 'sophie' that MFD and feely are friends off. LO doesn't seem to be too fussed about any of the teething things that i have bought, expect for a butterfly thing that when you bite a part of it it vibrates.

Funny story - we finally got to mamas and babies and there was a (highly recommended) Sophie and vibratey teether. I've just decided to get one :rotfl:

There are quite a few new Sophies on ebay for £10.00 + 1.95 p&p.

Thank you

Why are mama and baby groups so competitive?

Oh and a wee warning for those of you with freeview tv sets. At 4am the channel that shows cbeebies shows babestaion. Guess who's 4 year old decided that 4am was a good time to climb up and put the tv on? I heard him turn it on and went through, there were 'naughty nakey ladies shaking their bums' and I couldn't rip the ariel out quick enough! Can't work out if it is the same all over or only in certain areas or he turned it over, but I put it back on at 7am and it was cbeebies again.

Ariel will be removed at night and the power to the tv cut I think.

Mine isn't.
In which way, like racing babies?!? Or comparing which baby can do what?

:rotfl: I'm now visualising a village hall with a race track set up and all the babies crawling round it while the mums cheer them on.

LOL Susan - is that your diplomatic way of saying 'I don't agree'

If we were all the same it would be very boring!

I liked your extension BTW
