    In RL I'm an absolute sweetheart and would never set anyone on fire, not even if they messed with my building materials or didn't call me Mr Dave.

    Don't spoil my mental image of you with matches permanently about your person incase the need arises to set someone on fire :rotfl:

    Poo is better today thank you, much more textured!! No early morning bath today, but a poop was had at 6am on the dot which did require a change of PJ bottoms!

    In other news, I have just found a small cat asleep in my handbag! Stupid animal has melted the wispa gold I had stashed in there!! :eek:

    Glad Seth's getting better but the kitty would have been in big trouble!

    I knew their was something else, Weezl I would have had to be restrained from the midwife :mad: What an awful thing to say. So just for you as you asked so nicely

    One of the reasons OH stayed off work to look after us last week was cos I had to dump Seth to crawl around with poop all over him to go and puke!

    You know, I'm still totally upset about Keira's school pic. I can take better ones, and :mad: at her teacher for putting her fringe in her face. I'm so lame, but I'm annoyed, they didn't capture her boooootiful eyes, and the pose squashes her cheeks. I'll still buy it, it's nice......but I'm not buying the £87 acrylic canvas option they do :eek:

    Buttons- Mac cheese, OH makes it in our house, he uses mature cheddar and extra mature. Also a little bit of mustard and nutmeg. His mac cheese is amazing!!! The cheese is so thick and yummy it coats your teeth and your teeth feel like they are melting! I always request mac cheese and chips for my tea when I'm feeling a bit off, great comfort food.

    Junk food- My DD only started eating chips at age 11! She doesn't like McDonalds!!! Weirdo!

    Would any of you mind if I used some of your comments in my argument? Jillie, particularly what you said about feeling that there is no support.

    I dont mind.
    Morning all :)

    MM I think a feeding support group is a fab idea !!

    FF mums are not evil, but yet are pretty much just left to their own devices as its just making up a bottle !! If only !! As a 2nd time mum, I am expected to know everything , but how am I supposed to know that when it wasnt an issue with my first !!

    I agree , theres less support for 2nd time mums even before baby is born, let alone afterwards...we are all individual and what suits some doesnt suit others.. as long as we all agree to disagree then thats all that matters.

    Yes, and it was EPIC. This business of introducing solids right when babies get more wiggly is highly problematic and ill thought out.

    Keira screamed when I gave her a hamburger for tea, I had made it from scratch aswell (It did taste pants though).......

    Catchin up from when i left work yesterday.

    Jam lovely photo of Charlotte.
    Caz love the story about Charlie saying night night puddy cat. So glad you are feeling much more positive. .Men just can't handle the fact that we don't actually need them.

    Glad everyone had a good time as TC meet. Not jealous at all. Work was riveting instead. :p Sorry your OH is being a pain Glam. Would call for major silent teatment in my house!

    Hugs to MDF .

    I FF, and have never BF either of my two and had no intention of doing so either. Each to their own I say. And i may get shot down but (shrugs) it proper winds me up that i can't get boots points on stage 1 and 2 milk, because this would be promoting FF.:( And i'm sure i'm not alone.
  • Morning all,

    We had a loooonngg night as Isla decided sleepings no fun but feeding for hours on end, grinning at muumy between every mouthful and giggling lots is. Very cute at 4am *yawn*



    This is something that plays on my mind, I'd happily go through two labours if it cancelled out the initial toe curling, eye-watering feeds. As Isla fed so much last night this morning one boobs in agony and I've had to get the lansinoh out for the first time in weeks. My nearly 11 week old thinks she's a newborn again :oWe were the same last week so maybe it's a growth spurt? Back to more normal feeding and non-sore nipples now though thankfully.



    Eeek! Just remembered I was meant to be at sling meet at 11! Looks like I won't be going this month then as by the time I get there now it'll be over. Must get a wall planner for the fridge door to put reminders on.



    MFD I think you've come across really well, I think an inclusive group would be a great idea. I wouldn't have a clue where to start with formula and even after standing reading the tubs in asda was still none the wiser. (I was having a bad day at the 6 week growth spurt but we got through it)
    I hope everything goes ok with your husbands op too.

    Susan we have a snuggle nest as OH was against me co-sleeping and this was a compromise. I did find it helpful at first but it got thrown out of the bed quite quickly and we now fully co-sleep. I do think it helped bridge the gap between moses basket and directly in our bed for OH to be aware of her in the bed. I think Gisi had one too for Henry. The same really- used it for a couple of weeks, now he tends to just sleep next to me after his early morning feed (cot most of the night).

    Elle - hope the group goes well today.

    I've forgotten everything else, sorry :o

    See my comments above- I think we have parrallel lives with our due date sharing babies!
