    Booboo, a friend used them for colic. Amber refused all sorts of bottles before settling on the TT CTN ones. It's just trial and error. But doesn't T have expensive tastes! Think they only with Dr Browns is that they used to discolour quickly but they were still fine to use. Don't know if it's still the same now.
  • Ha yeh tiamai, expensive taste like his dad :) Ah I didnt know about them discolouring, I will keep an eye on that. Im also tring to keep well out the way when he is having bottle as i dont think it helps when im around and he thinks he can have milk from me. Good point about it being trial and error, bit thick of me really as i never thought of it like that, as when he wouldnt take TT ones, I thought it was just bottles in general and not just that type. Doh!! Maybe I should have tried a cheaper type first, lol!!

  • Evening all... having a busy one here. We are taking it in turns to bring in cakes and it is my turn this week. I made a chocolate cake this morning, and am just waiting for the butter to soften to make the icing. And I have made cheese scones in feet shapes too :) Will save one to try them out on Izzy, as if she likes them it will be another job at the weekend, but save us a fortune on organix biccies!

    I have a question - I pureed a load of avocado ages ago when it was on offer. What does avocado go with? Izzy doesn't seem to like it on it's own, but I thought maybe I could put it in a sandwich with something else, but I've got no idea what? Failing that I will make some guacamole next time we go to a party.

    How is everyone? I hope all the poorlie mummies and babies are on the mend. Any news on Poppy?

    lady I have no idea! Sorry! I don't like Avocado - OH usually has it in a fruit salad.

    Right, I've got my list of jobs for tomorrow so just going to write them up (if I don't I'll end up putting the lappy on and then end up chatting on here!)

    So plan tomorrow is housework, get ready, meet Sami, try not to spend too much money, then come home and do the usual evening routine.

    Where does the time go? :think:

    A penny cheeseburger! Don't you feed her at home? lol!

    She'd just cleared a huge plate of chicken jalfrezi and garlic naan when she said that!
    I'm fasting from 8.30pm until about 11am tomorrow for a GTT, but before that deadline I am going to indulge in a luxury Hot Cross Bun from Aldi with proper butter!

    Hope it goes ok. I had to have one of those and I was so hungry afterwards!

    Have you tried her with guacamole? Charlotte has always loved that.
    Here I go again on my own....
  • Avocado and tomato sandwiches are good Ladybird.

    I had an utterly grumpy boy all morning but then he was utterly charming when we had guests! He fought sleep all day though which is never good.

    MFD- I empathise with your back. I find those heat pads coupled with ibuprofen to be the best thing, along with a hot bath before bed.

    I'm having an early night tonight as I'm wiped out today.

    Avocado is nice on chicken sandwiches. My favourite sandwich in Oz was chicken mayo, avocado and grated cheese from a local coffee shop. Also goes with prawns but not sure if babies have prawns!?

    Beccles - This will be about my 10th one so I'm an old hand at it, I just get seriously grumpy.

    I'm insulin resistant (covert sugar to fat rather than energy), so I have them on an annual basis to check I'm not tipped over to Type 2 Diabetes (again).

    Sorry can't help with the avocado thing here as we don't like it.

    Apologies for disappearing I was just finishing off and e-mailing a job application. Thanks big bro#2 and SIL for proofing and editing.
