I must've really needed that nap...managed to put Finn down for his with a fresh nappy - but no (waterproof outer) wrap! :rolleyes: so of course all his clothes & sheets got wet because mummy is very silly and apparently can't use her own nappy system properly
. Luckily I got an hr of my own nap before he woke up crying to tell me what I'd done.
MFD - awww bless, must've been heart wrenching this morning
jillie - glad Kian's bleeding finally stopped and all turned out ok
Krystal - not sure what to say other than hugs
Buttons - you're absolutely hilarious. I reckon you could write a Bridget Jones-esque book for mums and make millions.
tia - ack, your talk of DLA form reminds me need to CB form. Not nearly as painful but must get on it!
Becles - gerbils aren't bad!both my sister and I had (fancy) rats as older children...or stick to goldfish as there's no smell! :rotfl:

Thanks for the hugs! ilm fine now. last night was in a right state. Had myself believing that HVand social workers would be round 1st thing checking up on me. (daft i know)
Thing is, he wasnt bothered once i calmed him down. had to keep smiling at him so he wouldnt sense my upset. though i know he could from the way he would look at me. thought DH would shout at me for being careless but he didnt. he was very worried about the bleeding not stopping too
Ah right, I'd never heard of them
I'm glad you're OK. Not daft at all, I'd be the same. I don't like blood at all (I'm very squeamish) so think I will be awful when Caitlin has her first blood.0 -
what network is he on? I pay £25 but don't get free internet!!! (or as good on other stuff but don't need them anyway)
3 network - you either love it or hate it and we've had no probs in 3 years. supposed to be £35 but doing an offer.
tia - great news!
SS - OMG!!! :eek:

angela - J messing with his bottles now, fir a week I've had to feed him standing up, keep telling myself its just a phase!
BM - U crack me up :rotfl:I was even saying the scottish bit in a scottish accent in my head:rotfl:

Where does the time go? :think:0 -

She fights her daytime naps so much and then has half an hour or so ( if im lucky) and then is yawning again 30 mins later. So sleeps really well at night ( 6 till 6 and doesnt wake at all, not even for her dummy) so i feel like i cant complain about not sleeping too well during the day. When she was about 3 months i was worried as she seemed to sleep an awful lot during the day. Im never happy!!
Rose manages her 3 meals fine but i find she's becoming less and less interested in her milk now. She likes her bedtime bottle but seems to mess around with the others so much. x
Caitlin is awake now (just went to get her). She slept for 29mins (I timed her). Like Rose, Caitlin sleeps great at night (7-7). We had a blip last night - -just gone 8pm, I think - when she woke up screaming but I got her back off to sleep and that was it until this morning again.
Unfortunately Caitlin has never been a good daytime sleeper (unless we're on a long journey in the car) but I'd rather her sleep at night than in the day if I had a choice. (She has an older cousin who, from the age of 9 months, didn't sleep at all in the daytime...I don't really want that
).
Right, off to make scrambled eggs for tea for Caitlin. First time she's had scrambled egg, so will be interesting to see what she thinks.

Didn't see the Grandma, but his mum was picking him up and usually she says hello but she blanked me :rotfl: I could take her! Keira keeps saying she is going to this little boys house aswell, I imagine that invite has been revoked, hey ho, she'd probably come home honking of grease and kebab!
Got to fill in her nursery application for next term, she better get afternoons again, the mornings would kill me!
Yeah, I totally should write a book.
Chapter 1: How to survive the nursery run in a deprived area.
Always, ALWAYS, avoid eye contact, if you make eye contact you will either have a new BFF that has greasier hair than chips, or you will be missing a clump of your own hair.
Never use a word bigger than 3 syllables otherwise you will be labeled as "posh b!tch" "B!tch who eats a dictionary" OR " Let's mug her"
Never pay the nursery snack money in advance, they will think your mega loaded because you don't have to wait until you get your family allowance and will expect you to buy them chips at the Bakers.
Always compliment them on their snazzy new Nikes, and agree 100% that kids should be seen and not heard, coke is a totally acceptable drink for a child, and if a sausage roll keeps wee Jimmy happy, then give him 5.
Always make wild statements: CAN YOU BELIEVE HOW MUCH ASDA ARE CHARGING FOR PLIMSOLES? £1.50!! OUTRAGEOUS! (watch those syllables)
Always swear at your child. It's apparently "in" at the moment.
Complain about your lack of money, constantly, and agree that benefits ain't much, especially when you have 2 kids to feed and clothe *sob sob*0 -
The proper explanation is in the baby whisperer book I think. (I don't have a copy - perhaps someone can help?)
I find LO sleeps better at night when she's had proper sleeps during the day.
Hope that helps xxxx
fairies have a spare copy, PM me if anyone would likeChoppy that means you!
