    Scary dream Glam - I wouldn't be so stressed about dressing. Clothes are for best ... it's 12:30 here in the future and I'm still in my robe. Thinking about putting some jeans on soon cause I'm a bit cold.

    Dont know whats wrong with me, spent half the morning in the bathroom up-chucking my guts, sorry tmi! Iv been like that all week along with migraines

    Glam meant to ask you what was that buggy walk thing you mentioned? Is it like a fitness thing or just you and friends?

    I was just about to say do you need to pee on a stick! :eek: But MFD beat me to it (again!).

    Theres a buggy-fit thingy advertised on my local net mums - a buggy walk through the woods. I might go, i'm on a roll! :D
    3 & AF - I am glad it is not just me who is freaked out by same glasses and card. I have been sat here chatting to my assistant trying to rationalise it 'well, lots of people go to specsavers, there must only be a hundred or so pairs of glasses' and then 'how many happy birthday son cards are there...can't be more than a couple of hundred in the whole of town' and I am still majorly freaked!!!

    OH hasn't married his ex's twin has he! :rotfl::rotfl: You could go on Jeremy Kyle! :rotfl:
    Try not to get too hung up about the amount of milk he does or doesn't have. As long as he is taking his fill and is thriving (wet and dirty nappies and gaining some weight) then I am sure he will be fine. We wouldn't expect all 5, 10, 16 or 60 year olds to eat the same, so why do we expect babies to?

    My little pudding usually has 28oz a day! Best look at booking fat camp for next summer. ;)


    I need to share. I'm very happy this morning, i'm wearing a bra that fits and feels comfy! :j:j

    After pregnancy bras and feeding bras, i finally sorted out my undies drawer yesterday and found lots of forgotten bras in a variety of sizes - not of which fitted comfortably. My boobies have changed since before V! I went to next, had a good trying on session and now i'm happy. :D

  • It was the website Glam, I think I just googled 'Gymbabes' or tumbletots they have one at fordton leisure too but.....dont fancy it over there.
    Scary dream!!!

    Lexi got the cutest tea set for xmas and everytime we get it out she does the same thing she did on xmas day, tries to drink from the teacup - nothing comes out! Tries to drink from the spout of the teapot - nothing comes out! Opens the lid and tries to drink from inside the teapot -nothing comes out! So she thorws it across the room and goes for her juice on the table makes me laugh so much!

  • Im not dressed, Lexi isnt dressed and I wasnt going to bother as my brother is picking J up for me again but the hallogens in my bathroom have all blown bar the blue one so for the past two days/nights its has looked like nightclub toilets in there as the only bulb that works is the blue led one :( I forgot to add them to the shopping so I should pop out to get some or I could call OH and ask him to pick some up on his way home ......

    I'm only dressed cos i have to take DS to school. If i'm not going out i don't get dressed, saves muckying my v.limited selection of clothing that actually fits/doesn't have holes in.

    Im not dressed and neither is Keira and I have to leave the house in 25minutes :D

    This is why I'm late everyday for nursery!

    Me and OH have totally spent loads of money this month, about died when I just logged into the banking! Though, £90 of it I'm taking back off the money his mum gives him because if he'd bothered to go see her, it wouldn't of had to come out the bank for his driving lessons. WHAT A RIP OFF PRICE THEY ARE ANYWAYS!!!

    On the upside, his instructor said he should book his test within in the next 2 weeks, he's only had about 7/8 lessons so far. Already passed his theory.

    Don't know how he thinks we can afford a flippin' car though. Ignoring the initial outlay for a car, what's the costs per year?

    Basing it on a crappy 1.2 litre or something.

    Road tax, Insurance and ermmmm M.O.T, is that every year costs? NOt forgetting the petrol. But then he'd be able to do overtime if he had a car, so it would pay for the petrol at least.

    Meh.......
