Sami - love the cake.
No DOI in this house we're currently watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
I started letting Katie have taste of things like apples (licking the juice off the surface, suck a grape etc) from about 5 months but nothing proper solid food until she was 25 weeks she was happy on milk up until then.
I impressed myself I've done my weekly shop for £48! Lunches and dinners.
I made the twice stuffed roast chicken from Economy Gastronomy and it was very tasty and we have plenty of leftovers for rubber chicken.
Does anyone know if Wacky Warehouse provide the cake for their birthdays?

Hey all,
I am very new to this site but thought I would c if I can get a bit of advice. My 9 and a half month old boy wants to sleep in our bed EVERY night. I put him in his cot when he falls asleep but he always wakes up at some point and screams the house down till we bring him into our bed, then he falls ryt asleep!!
hellppp!!!

Never had to give Miss A any, and cos she's formula fed now she should be getting some but is totally not interested. Again, calorie content of milk is higher than empty calory - tummy filling juice.jillie1974 wrote: »is this not a good/recommended thing to do??
i thought i could....
I gave the boys normal well diluted NAS squash. Amber will get the same. Dunno what 'they' say about it, probably that their intestines will grow legs and run off or something.
Sami, love the cake! Now fess up, who fell on their !!! to inspire it?
I've voiced my opinions on 'early' weaning before :rolleyes: :rotfl:
Speaking off, Amber helped herself to my chocolate gateux, she just lunged for it, stuck the hands in then screamed when I tried to clean them. So she got left sucuking her chocolate covered hands and I devoured the remains of my cake, ha!0 -

I'm no help, as I do this and don't mind, sorry. Some of mine have but then always just grown out of it!Too many children, too little time!!!0 -
bens mum :hello: and welcome .. my advice would be to let him scream til he cries himself to sleep i know it sounds mean but when i was getting my eldest used to being in her room on her own i would lie her down without saying a word and then walk out let her scream for 15 mins then repeat til she just be came bored and went to sleep x
Still searching .....:)

Hiya ladies - tons to catch up on. Benjamin has been a little star over the last couple of days :A although quite clingy to me, not in a mardy way but just wanting cuddles all the time. I think I have had more cuddles in the last 2 days than I have in the last 2 months!!
Hi bens mum - I think some tough love is in order. He needs to learn to go to sleep on his own and learn that he can't come in with you, otherwise you will end up with a toddler, child and teenager in bed with you later on. My DSS is 10 on Thursday and he still gets in with his mum every night - however, when he stays with us he sleeps through and doesn't even wake...because he knows he wouldn't get away with it here.
Does he sleep in his own room?please listen to MFD - she is a wise womanProud Mummy to the gorgeous Benjamin John born 14 March 2009, 8lbs 14ozA new little seedling on the way, due 30 September 20120 -

I had the locks changed then he broke in, it was stupid of be beause I didnt lock the door properly, it's a PVC one and I was under the impression that they were safe but didnt realise itneeded to be locked properly, so one kick was all it wold of taken for him to gain access.0 -
DKAM do you know the serial number of the TV? Would the police go check his new TV to see if they match?
I suppose getting some large acquaintances to steal it back isn't an option?0 -
Ooooh, just heard some gossip from my old job - when I left they got someone to replace me for half my job (I did the equivalent of two fulltime jobs - audio typing and admin - and didn't get a payrise :rolleyes:) but farmed the other out to the girl whose desk was across from mine. The second job was very intense - head of administration for a department - and the other girl was very nice but not the smartest. Anyway, she got behind with booking patients in for appointments, so instead of asking for a temp for a week she just took half the referral forms and hid them in her desk :eek: So half the patients on the list never got called for their scans because only she knew she'd hidden their papers, and she didn't catch up enough to rescue them at any stage. Anyway, someone called to find out !!!!!! was going on and the whole story came out.
Had to share. As you were
Edit: OMG DKAM, that barstool! And how did he get another woman?!?Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
