So... hello :beer:

Hello and congrats :jWelcome to the mad house

It's snowing again here. We found snowdrops in the woods the other day and some buds on some shrubs, so I was hoping that was a sign it was warming up. Maybe not!

Hi KT congratulations! :j:j

We've just had breakfast - goin to try Caitlyn on a bottle of Aptimil to see if she really doesn't like it or whether she was just being stubborn for the CM!

SM I'm hoping the fairies will be flying today, but they have a heavyish load to carry so it may take them until about Tuesday/Wednesday

Right off to look at the Tesco DVD loophole........

Hi KT sounds like a good first week! It'll change before you know it but usually in good ways, honest

Morning all
After Thu night and Fri's hideousness, I had to spend about 2 hours talking OH into going to bed (nausea felt worse lying down and she really has a phobia thing about vomiting - she was absolutely terrified of a repeat performance, and a bit feverish too) but when I eventually succeeded, all 3 of us slept like logs from midnight til 7am
This morning E has a very wet sounding cough and lots of snot but no signs of vomit so fingers crossed. He is off his food but still had mad activity levels - if you lot have a ballerina and a rock climber, I think I have a mosher... his recent favourite thing is to drag you by the fingers and shove your knees shouting MOAH! MOAH! UP! until you go into his nursery and lift him into his cot. Then he wildly flails and spins in circles bouncing off the sides and falling over again and again and cackling like a madman, during which you must watch him. Any attempts to sneak out are met with piercing screams and pointing fingers of accusation! Just the way to start the morning

Hope people got some good sleep! Sounds like Tara and MM had fun

Lie in whats one of those... funny my OH has been promising me one and that he'll do LO duties one night so I can have a full nights sleep... hang on is that a pig I see flying past... this morning he says everything ok at 8am when I wake him up, I said wonderful (sarcastically) and he says oh great! Well what did he expect when I went to bed at 11.30 with William, awake at 1.00 for bottle, Henry awake at 2 and then up at 5.30 (convinced him to go back to bed) and then both of them up at 6.30!!!!! grrr men :mad:

Plus I think AF is about to arrive

hello! Finn had his jabbies yesterday, so I expected a very rocky night. All in all, he was very unsettled in the evening but once he finally conked out, he was fine! Huzzah.

jenny - what's this mythical class by Lambeth council? HMPH, I haven't heard a peep! Of course, Erin's like 2 months older than Finn so maybe there's still time for us :P. Do you know of any baby massage in the area? My HVs are useless!!

Welcome KT!

I've made a new mommy friend from Netmums that had her baby on Sunday and got to visit her yesterday - OMG, I've already forgotten how tiny they are!! It's crazy, I still feel like I have a fresh newborn baby, but he's already so massive after just 9 weeks.

I'm also in the market for a cot, as Finn is quickly reaching the top of his Moses basket :eek:. But it'll be eBay local for me all the way...I think then we will assemble a 'proper' nursery for him finally...he's already sleeping in the other room.

Have been awake since 5.45am cats decided to run around and attempt to dig to Australia in the litter tray, and then Seth woke up hungry and refused to go back down again. Lush!

He has decided that his favourite thing to do this morning is crawl while sliding his hands around on DVD cases shouting to the whole of the street about it!

You really can get an answer to everything here!

It's a running joke with me and OH that everything I find out is from MSE either directly or indirectly.

If anyone can magic me a plumber out of thin air, I'd really appreciate it.

We had the same kind of trouble trying to get people to do stuff on the house before we moved in - most don't even bother getting back to you when you phone.

Our snows gone today but yesterday it started snowing while we were out and Alice's first response was, "I hadn't put my arrow on snowy." because she's got one of those calendar where you mark the day, date, weather etc.

:j:jWelcome! Don't worry about keeping up with the thread if you don't have time, just dive right in - it's a chatty thread.

If you have a particular question to ask, put it in bold so we see it and don't miss it

Maz & Mel I'll join you YAWN!!! Bad night with Jack, he was really unsettled until I went to bed at 1am and then he was wide awake so I brought him into my bed and he slept til 7.30am. Problem is I never sleep very well cos he's usually cwtched in my arm!

Bruno & Em - loving cute stories!

Aless - Glad Finn was OK yesterday. I found it was usually a few days afterwards that it upset Jack more (sorry!!). HE would have jabs on a Wednesday and then usually from Friday/Saturday through to the Tuesday he was grouchy and woke in the night.

Anyways, J's having a nap and OH & BIL are still in bed so now I've finished my brekkie I think I'll make a start on sorting out some more paperwork!

Grrrrr! at the snow! I need to know what Fife is like before I set off for my new buggy, wheres Caz when you need her?!

Gonna wait til 10ish and text the seller, don't want to annoy them by texting too early on a Sat!

Em, Seth is so cute! I can just picture him
