This morning we were talking about hearts and feeling them beating and I asked Alice what sound her heart makes. She said it goes, "Bum bump." I then asked her why it goes "bum bump" and she said, "Because I love Mummy and Daddy so much." :smileyhea

Bruno! :mad: I am never again giving you sympathy when Elijha and your OH are ill because you somehow transmitted the lurgy over to DS2 and I've been up all night with him. Totally blaming you because my DH is away to work and I usually blame him. (glad they are feeling better though)

KT, hiya! Congratulations on having Alex, he sounds like a good baby. Long may it continue.

Beenie, I'll keep a look out for dark cot beds on ebay

Morning all,

Sorry you have not had much sleep again Glam! Hope you don't have a hangover too.

H awoke earlier than usual so I am tired too. Definitely going with the baby rice at lunchtime! She is currently blowing saliva with a "doof" noise so will probably have to change her wet clotes soon! I think I will have a wee sleep when she goes for a nap as we have no plans this weekend. Apart from watching the football tomorrow. It will be a quiet, relaxing weekend, just doing stuff in the house (packing up and storing H's old clothes etc).

Susan/Bruno/Em - your babies all sound adorably cute.

KT - welcome and congratulations!

Csh - good luck with the pram. I think the weather is worse in Perthshire but since I got totally confused the other night, there is no point in listening to me!

Hope Weezl is ok. I know she is busy on her other thread but surprised she has not been on here at all.

I need a shower badly but if Amber goes into her crib and sleeps, then the temptation to join her may be too much.

Chris only stopped being sick at 7ish then Amber was up at 8ish, managed to get her to snooze till just before 9, but I'm so tired. Luckily DH should be home for about 4pm which is when the tiredness really hits me.

Need to do a tesco shop first.

DS1 is teaching Chris his numbers upto 25, he's so sweet.

Morning everyone

Welcome Katrina, it sounds like you have a lovely baby.

Molly woke at midnight, 2am, 5am and 8am - and I feel fortunate after the last few nights :eek: When she woke, I just gave her enough boob for her to start dozing off again rather than a full feed, and it made no difference to her waking, so I think we can safely give her water instead when she wakes and hopefully that will stop the nighttime waking.

Beenie, is this dark enough? It's only £10 cheaper than the Toys R Us one though so if there are vouchers it might not be the best deal.

Sorry for posting the wrong cotbeds Glam - I'm a bit more human this morning after a few hours of sleep.

Today's our anniversary. OH was not extremely enthusiastic about his present but then it is very early and he was up from 5am with the beastie. We had a mildly embarrassing inequality of gifts though..... he gave me some hot chocolate sachets (Italian ones, I love them, but I get massive sugar rushes and I'm normally not allowed to have them) and a magnetic notebook. I gave him (us) a weekend in the Hundred Acre Wood.

SS, that's like me & DH every Christmas! He always wayyyy overbuys and I get him stuff worth like £20 (though it is meaningful & stuff he wants).

Morning! I am feeling great this morning, put Alfie in his cotbed in his own room last night and I got a much better sleep! Instead of being woken up by hum waking, grumbling but then going back to sleep for an hour before he needed feeding I was just woken when he was actually awake and really needed feeding!

Now I have DH making me a bacon sandwich so all good!

We also went out last night! DH normall works every Fri & Sat night but had last night off. Mum came here and watched A and we went for a drink round the corner for just over an hour. Felt weird leaving A but was nice to spend a Fri night with DH. I had a drink as well, first one in 9 months apart from a glass of bubbly at my wedding! Felt a bit giddy after :rotfl:

:rotfl: aless

Csh it isn't that bad, he'll get dinner tonight and we both get to enjoy the weekend. Which reminds me, I need to do a postcode search on the nearest supermarket to our hotel :rotfl:

Beenie, I've been doing extensive hunting, and in the dark oak finish the Toys R Us one is the cheapest. Would you feel up to staining a cheaper one yourself, maybe?

Just read back a few pages, glad you had a good night last night MM and Tara

KT nice to see you over here!

Bruno glad you all got a good sleep last night and that OH and E are feeling a bit better.

Oh and I am jealous of all the new cars! Our car is dying and we can't afford a new one just yet
