    Q: When did you move from using non-bio washing powder and sensitive fabric conditioner?

    I never started using them in the first place :o Always just washed baby stuff in my regular bio washing powder and fabric softener.

    Been to a place called Taybarn this evening. It's a big buffet serving all sorts of food and you pay once and eat as much as you like. It sounded good, but it was a bit naff when we got there as most of the dishes we fancied on the menu were unavailable. I hope I don't sound snobby but some of the other guests were not very nice. There were a number of people there with no manners who were pushing and shoving to get in at the food, and I was surprised at the number of people out for an evening meal and ill fitting track suits and trainers.

    Went for desserts and decided to let Charlotte have a slab of chocolate fudge cake thinking she wouldn't eat it all. She did. Big mistake! It's taken ages to get her into bed this evening as she is hyper. I tucked her in and went in the shower and when I came out, she was bouncing around on the landing with the dogs and singing a song about gingerbread men :rotfl:

    It was James birthday meal as he's 11 today and he enjoyed it, so that's the main thing.
    Here I go again on my own....
  • aww happy birthday James :D

    she has been found and nicked I'm sure because it was in the last 20ish mins and we retraced our steps asking everyone and left details with customer services but nothing :(

    Jillie and dora so glad you had a good time today :) we would like to know which babies fell in love with which other babies, whether you toasted your absent friends, did sami wear a cardi that could remotely be described as jazzy, hang on, more will come to me....
    Edgar fell in love with Benjamin :rotfl:he just watched him for ages
    I didn't wear a cardi :p I did wear heels though - big mistake! my feet hurt :(
    ...

    YAY for Ed's tooth! How good is he?He was not a bit of bother today!

    Chris is very cute BTW (notwithstanding the pepper ;)) Benjamin was very taken with him :D
    it would appear that Ed just goes off his food when teething :huh: all he had today after his 'breakfast' was that 2min feed in nados until we got home past 5pm! and he didn't make a peep except a bit of wanting to stretch his legs

    yep Chris decided to empty a pepper pot onto the floor - he's so naughty sometimes!

    DKAM - hope things go ok xxx When I worked at a high school SS would come and collect kids for supervised contact and bring them back again.

    :TI'd love to hear all about it if you do :D

    Weezl - also a point to consider/research; BFing helps physiological 3rd stage and I'm not aware how not BFing straight away affects this...
    (I'm guessing it just takes longer though)

  • SM, if you need Thorntons for a gift, why not use the one you were saving for valentines and get something else for yourself thats cheaper than buying more thorntons !!

    I started using them as I've had reactions myself in the past to washing powders - I don't use separate though all clothes get washed together.

    Hammy - I think I'll try changing one at a time and see what happens - for both of us.

    Beccles - Happy Birthday James. I also know what you mean there is an pub/restaurant near us that does a permanent carvery and it's an interesting mix of people, Katie's head is on a swivel watching it all.

    :rotfl:at Charlotte's hyper antics.

    Sami - I think it's because BF releases hormones that contracts the uterus, thus helping the 3rd stage.
