Because we all chat so much, and things can get missed, and people's noses can get put out of joint ... Someone came up with the idea that questions/advice should be in bold, fairy notices and thanks can be in pink, and news/announcements about babies can be in red. That way they stand out when skimming down the page.

thanks tigs!! ill def forget this!!

Does anyone else need to give an extra feed in the afternoon? we are usually 3-4 hours but late pm/ early evening we seem to need to give an extra feed.

she is a wee dote!!!
when christopher was younger, we had a normal 5pm feed for dinner, then he all of a sudden he wanted more at 6..30. which ended up being his "topup" and from bout 2 months he slept through after his topup.

Claire – even if the warranty is up, as a consumer, as far as I know, you have the right to expect purchases to last for a reasonable amount of time. I would phone Consumer Direct. My parents have just bought a new sofa, but the warranty only covers the frame anyway, not the actual foam/seats!!

Glam – wheels on swivel most of the time, but locked in the snow, bumpy surfaces, and in certain shops where the floor is really smooth and you have gravel on your wheels etc. Basically when it’s difficult to push or the wheels start to look a bit unstable and are taking a battering!

Becles – Charlotte is gorgeous.
Weezl – Fergie is very cute and so grown up looking!
Gemma – lovely photo.

Angela – how did your meeting go? Are you getting the hours you want?
PP – Good for you for getting the hours you wanted.

Carla - It's nice to see you around again.

It's just a suggested way of making sure that if you want a reply, people realise and don't miss it when skimming.

Anyone know about student loans? The loan will be £4600, and I need to take it to get childcare paid. But i don't need it (lucky me). But what do I do with it? I was going to save it and pay it back at the end of the year, but MSE says I should clear debt or pay it towards the mortgage... I'm stuck. I'll need more if I go to Uni...

If you think you will need it for going to Uni then I guess it probably depends on how easily you could reborrow if you used it to pay of extra debt now.

Afternoon all. Just about to go put a sticky baby in the bath, but I thought I'd report in quickly to say that we had a lovely afternoon with Feelie and Toby. (And neither of them is really a builder called Dave mucking about ) Back later!

hmm just asked Chris what he thought of this pretty little girl (Charlotte) he said "I want her" I asked what for and he said "coz I do!" little caveman

He might change his mind when he finds out she's got two big brothers watching out for her :rotfl:

becles - me thinks your avvy needs updating! Charlotte seems so much older & looking incredibly cute!

She is growing up quick. Avvy pic was one hubby snapped in the garden last summer.

Was talking to the secretary in school this morning who said it doesn't seem like five minutes since she was born and I was bringing a pram to school!

I'm FF, we started off BF but Jessica wouldn't latch on properly, not at all on the left and it was hit and miss on the right side. We kept it up for a week and a half with FF for top ups but then went to FF only. Both of us seem happier FF, although I will def try to BF next time.

Also, with the jaundice we were told to make sure she had a feed every 3 hours which we struggled with with BF.

Its bath night tonight, she loves laying in the water so I'm hoping to take her swimming once I can get behind the wheel again

Are we all genuine?

They've just "outed" a troll over on BabynBumb, she had 4000 posts, claimed to have had one pregnancy & a miscarriage already, claimed another pregnancy that just resulted in a premature baby ... She got found out because she started exchanging private details with people that had made friends, wasn't too convincing, and some behind-the-scenes checking up was done. No babies, nothing. Just a troll.

Some people are just weird :rotfl:
