I think yours are different cause you say things like DD12 and DD16 so we know. I know exactly how old Molly is but because I don't call her Molly25weeks (plus one day) I don't expect everyone else to remember.
Well, I suppose you'd be changing Molly's age every week, so it could get confusing.:eek:0 -
3 - LO is now a 'confident' walker and she's still got a couple of weeks left in gymbabes. at the end of this next group of sessions we are moving up a class, where she'll be back to being bottom of the class!
we walked to a friends house today which is about 5mins away. LO wore her reins and we walked holding hands - it took us almost 20 minutes as every lampost and bush was very interesting
I can't promise that all my replies will illicit this responser.mac, you are so wise and wonderful, that post was lovely and so insightful!

Our trial is tomorrow at 12.20 - would you both suggest early lunch before we go?
I thought we might be a bit old for it as she'll be one a week Sunday. Did I read that Gymbabes is for until they're confident walkers?, then you move up to Tumbletots? She's a long way off being a confident walker anyway.
Definitely eat before going, Toby isn't a bit eater but it made him hungry.
There was one girl who'd just started walking, no mention of how confident they need to be. Even if you only go for a little while before going to Tumble Tots, it'd still be a good, gentle introduction to it.
Angela - I am paying per lesson until after the half term, can you do this to try a few more sessions?

I learnt my numbers in a similar way - apparently I had to read every number on every gatepost or door as we went down the street!ManOnTheMoon wrote: »:rotfl:

I did after Jake, Jake was failed vontuse and fauceps (cant remember the order?) and then section under general so had app at 36wks with jasmine and they said they'd prefer to do arranged section.(which i was happy with) Which compared to the birth with Jake was lovely cos i got to see my baby all gooey!! I was gutted after I had Jake cos by the time I'd come round he was fed, changed washed and dressed! Did you have K at bolton? that sounds similar to what happened with jake his head was kind of wonky trying to come out, x
We were at Fairfield, Bolton next time as Fairfield is due to close. Yep, same thing head had not straightened up, so no amount of pushing from me was going to get him out! lol!! I think its cos i was induced that he didnt have time to get into the right position. Was ventouse,then forceps at which point my pethidine (wasnt this but similar) had worn off and i could only have gas and air!!! then it was emer c/s. Pretty hard going!!! and my waters had to be broken....feelinggood wrote: »Back from the group. Shan't be going again. It was nice and all, but I'm terribly judgemental and it was in too deprived an area. Too many dummies, bottles of juice, screaming, dirty and fake designer clothes, mums sneaking off for a fag etc. O felt a bit odd with my cuddly, shy babygrowed baby in a sling! Sorry if that all sounds terrible, I just felt very posh and out of place, despite being not very posh at all.
thats how i kinda felt yesterday. they had snacks for the kids and it was all choc donuts, pringels etc...may stick with the surestart ones as when they provide food its healthy etc.
and on to the group today...
it was brill. my friends daughter was there so that was a bonus (didnt realise she went there). no chavvy mums all babies. some at crawling stages.
from what i can gather they tend to have a talk most weeks on things to help. so this week was a follow on first aid (could have used that one) but i got lots from it especially as they were talking bout head injuries. next week is car safety. so we are definitely going back. they are organising swim meets as well over the next few weeks which should be good fun.'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0
