    I havent had anything in a while either Mrs M, but I emailed them a while ago and they just didnt have anything appropriate age wise for Dylan to test at the minute but said that I was still in their system :)

    I emailed also asking if they had anything for cliodhna as everything has been for darach, but she just said she would be in touch that was 6 weeks ago
  • And and and - there is nothing cuter than a baby who can't talk yet having a pretend conversation on a mobile phone :rotfl:. If you aren't listening it kind of sounds like she is having the kind of conversation I have with DH all the time. "yes.....un-huh ...... yes...... yes.... mmmm......ok bye!"

  • Fitzio -I didn't spot your post about Childcare costs but I pay £3 per hour for Benjamin's Childminder. That includes all meals and most general excursions etc.
    Extras - I have to provide nappies and wipe and milk and I will be paying £3 a week for him to go to playgroup with CM which he starts tomorrow :T :T


    The costs do vary wildly though, even within the same area - I saw one CM who wanted £4.50 an hour and then wanted me to provide food on top - and she was no where near as good as my CM!!!



    Which reminds me - Benjamin's CM is a lovely dutch lady, and sometimes she can have an unusual turn of phrase - when hubby picked Benjamin up on Tuesday afternoon the CM said 'Benjamin gave me all of his milk back this afternoon' which puzzled hubby a bit so he said 'did he?' and CM said 'yes - very violently, all over me, I STINK!!!' She meant he had been sick!!!

    And your reply should have been, well you can if you want, but if you do I will make your world end 5 mins after you get drunk and stoned ;):rotfl:


    We ended up having a very serious talk about drugs and alcoholism :o

    I signed up after she was born so she was already on it. I reallly really want something to review with her :confused:

    I know im biased but she is so sweet tempered and pleasant, my only baby that has never cried lol, and goes to sleep as soon as she is put in bed. I have a dream baby :j

    Hi Glam :hello: I know, so, so fast! I've only got a week and a half left if I go the same time you did :eek:

    I'm planning a big asda shop today or tomorrow too, need to stock up my freezer with meals in preparation for the new arrival!

    Things are great with DH and me thanks. Been really enjoying my maternity leave too.

    Hi SJ!!!!!

    How fast has the time gone!!!!

    Everything OK with you and DH?

    back from ASDA - ended up doing a full shop as they had the meat at 3 packs for £9. Considering I can make 8 meals out of 1 pack of mince, means I can make 24 mince based meals for £9 so 37p per meal. Obviously that's just the meat but still good. Plus chicken breasts work out at £1 each!
    C&G baby cereals are normally 3 for £5 but are currently on offer at £1 as are the large packs of rusks but not the gluten free ones.

    so much for wii fit - Jack slept in ASDA & shows no signs of napping again. I can't even put the shopping away or have my lunch!

    the parcel was a bottle from bizziebabies to test - one of those ones with a pump thingy inside to stop wind but it's only a 6oz bottle. and I've been asked for my review of the carrier - or should I say they want me to review the website!:confused:


    i take it you never got the carrier then? i did wonder as you hadnt mentioned it. what use is a 6oz bottle when baby is taking more than that?

    saw the rusks for £1 was tempted to buy but already have a box. good value for the baby cereals though and i am gonna get some so K can have a variety to try.


    i've had nothing from bizziebaby at all. £5 prob down the drain. would i recommend joining?? yes if you have kids of all ages so you would qualify for more tests.

    ooh, nurseries near us are all £35 for full day £125 for week.Think its £20 for 1/2 day but didnt really check. most you have to provide formula/milk but nappies etc are all included. havent looked at CM's mainly cos there are none within walking distance to us or serve (will collect/drop off) from the school i currently am thinking of for K. but most seem to be around £25/35 a day.
