Weezl, why are you apologising, I got upset about piles!!!

Fair play I'm with you on that one laydee! *shifts uncomfortably on her donut cushion*

moving upstairs with lappy to bed, you can all perch precariously on my big bump in my warm bed!

Approximately how hormonal am I? I was just weeping at someone's avatar! (different thread) The lady just has a really sweet face, and I looked at her and thought, 'oh I think you are a kind person with a good heart!' and then all tears came (lots)! And DH asked why and I told him. He is very perplexed but thinks I am sweet...

Yay for Andrew eating, Dylan passing toys and Toby waving! Lovely to hear so much progress on here.

Big hugs for Kai for his tonsilitis, and hugs for you too Mel as it sounds miserable for both of you.

Off to have my nommy tea of veggie lasagne....mmmmm

AND SO THE RANDOM EVENING SCREAMING COMMENCES!

oops caps lock

Weezl, I'm not that bothered about her crying (its so true what they say about third time mums!). I do check on her so she is not left to scream (which I don't like doing), she just seems to spend 15 mins crying (either in her bed or being held or on our bed or in the bouncy etc) then she will suddenly rub her eyes and look all contented and fall asleep. It's not every night either. There is nothing wrong with her, she just wants to cry. The boys were like that too, more so DS2. I read a bit about crying as stress release and think thats all it is, she just needs to unwind or something.

Harley, my fairies found the post office today

Glam, Ambertronic still grabs my hair even when I have an interesting necklace on. She can have that in her hand and still grab a handfull of hair and laugh at me! Evil little robot baby!

Poor Kai, awesome videos, hehe at Weezls hormonalness, boo for random screamy Jack! Woo for passing things (I have to admit I sniggered a bit at "passing" )

Have you read baby whisperer ever? She says some quite interesting things about cry to sleep babies and how they release their over-stimulatedness that way.... Now what was she recommending... maybe swaddling or massage, I can't remember... Can dig it out if you fancy?

I cry to let out tension too! Me and ambertronic can have our own little weep to sleep club

Me three, and Molly four. I swaddle her, then stroke her head and whisper to her till she drops off. Husband swaddles her and leaves her. Both work.

We had some of that too. I like to console myself that it's because she's learned a lot today

Hi Carla, sorry to butt in but i have recently uploaded some camera video to fb. When i linked the camera to my computer to get the photos off, the vids came too, so on fb I just browsed to where I saved the vids, same as I would if uploading pix. Does that help?

GISI - Soz so slow but what a lovely pic of henry!! we havent got a bumbo, wonder if it would be worth getting now as henry looks so happy in there!! Does he stay in there for long? And is he pretty much holding his own head up now? xx

watch out for runny poos with the penicillin mel you can help his gut flora grow back to prevent dia-woo-wah by giving him live yoghurt with fruit puree in?

Yep, bump is big! I'm already stretch marking in previously unmarked areas! Oh boy! I am trying for a tummy map of the London underground (well button's MIL has a hot crossed tum, so I have to go one better!)

Good luck with the map making;) This is one thing I am a little concerned about as he already has watery poops at the moment anyway, so I am dreading it , although not sure they can get any runnier:o

I've spotted a little with tonsillitis - get well soon!

And to scare you, wanna know what my electric bill for Aug-Nov just came in at? £256! Because we were with Scottish power who after 2 years of arguing, passed us over to scottish gas who now have us on a stupidly high tarrif because we have 2 power lines (?) left over from when we had ancient electic heating. DH phoned and it has been put on hold because they are aware that it's not our fault and we will be getting money taken off it and the meter fixed, but still :mad:

And my kitchen tap is not working so no water in the kitchen at all, have to fill bottles up from the bathroom :mad:

Did you not discover the water problem?

And see above for my electric bill:o
