MM put one under her pillow

Resting in the leaves of a plant? (are these small eggs?)

In with the regular eggs.

Inside the bowls in the press.

aww MFD, apart from making me feel slightly sick at your fluffyness tonight lol I am glad you are very happy

cheers people, I have used pretty much everywhere in my house !!! Might Set one on her bed after she has started and that will be the last one to find. I must add though, she isnt getting loads of eggs, we have plastic eggs that I put silly little tings in, or 1 sweet or 10p etc ... and then she gets a proper choc egg at the end

Can I come and join in MM I just don't have the energy for doing clues as El is ill again and not enjoying doing anything except whinging, clinging to my leg or sleeping. Poor wee mite was up til 5.30 this morning and I gave in and took her in with me and she slept til 10am.

Katie's got really weird skin on her tummy it really rough (a shark skin type texture) and it's spreading to her back.

I've slapped on a load of aloe vera gel tonight and will until I can get to the shop.

All I can think of is that we've used this on her skin and her skin doesn't like it.

Okay - I am doing that silly thing of reading back one page at a time instead of going back to where I left off so forgive me if I miss the build up to something...

Guess who's up again?

I went in to give OH a little break cause I thought he must be working so hard to soothe the beastie, but he was reading in bed while she howled!

Own-bedding will now be on hold until these teeth are in. I can't take it.

You have not long come back from your travels so Miss Molly may still be confused.

Leaving a baby to cry whilst you are in the room is not !!!!!!!-hubby territory, it is not even bad-parent-territory or even lazy-parent-territory. Sometimes these kids need to cry!!! You will suffer for it in the end if you don't let it go sometimes (says wine-fuelled-MFD) Leave him to his parenting style xx

The thing is, he does loads of stuff with her, but as time goes on he seems to have unrealistic ideas of what she can and can't do. Some things he wants to believe she's still a newborn and not capable of them (like imitating sounds, he thinks I'm overreacting when I tell him not to swear around her), but when it comes to stuff like sleeping and not grabbing he thinks she should be able to follow instructions of No, and Go to sleep. And she'll be eight months old tomorrow, she's just too young for that. All the time I was pregnant he'd say, Our baby won't do X, and I laughed at him, but it seems like he believed it.

Leave him to his parenting style - he is her parent as much as you are.

We have one of the bounce and zebras got it for £10 off eBay and Daniel loves it, he'll point at it while sat on my knee, says "abda" wriggles himself off my knee crawls across to it stands up and bounces it with his hands. He can't quite get his leg over it yet so I'll pop him on and then he bounces like mad and smiles and giggles while doing it. It's great to watch it

That is exactly the same as Kai did until about 2wks ago when he learnt how to get his leg over it, he loves it even more now...especially as we cheer and clap him whenever eh does it:D

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo (this deserves a lot of O's)

OH's grandparents are looking to buy a house to rent out so we are possibly thinking of renting it off them (think around £400 for a 3-bed place in lovely rural West Wales) and they would probably leave it to us.
Pros - no mortgage, no need to work full time, nearer family (both mine & OH's), beautiful location with beaches and national park etc
Cons - no MSE meets (although I'm only 90minutes from Weezl), quite rural (but I'm used to that from when I grew up), I don't really know many people (but then I don't where I am now), poor job prospects.

Quite exciting really - we plan to start paying off some of our mortgage so that when we sell we have a nice sum in the bank ready for Number 2 (and 3, 4 and 5) :rotfl:

Sounds absolutely fantastic...I really hope it all goes ahead for you:D

Right off to hide the eggs and write clues and then going to bed, tum still hurty;(

I normally do, MFD, and we often leave her to normal crying. If it was just regular crying I'd have been ok with it, but it was pure shrieking and when I went in her little eyes were wide open and she looked terrified and was all clinging and shaky when I picked her up.

[STRIKE]Partly[/STRIKE] Mostly I'm fuming that he went on and on about how we had to make sure she slept in the crib but left most of the wrangling her into it to me - after he was the one who insisted she slept in our bed and not the damned crib and kept telling me I was wrong to think that it would make her think the bed was hers and make her not want the crib.

Okay - in your job, do I need to tell you you need to talk about your problems


Babies get clingy and shaky when you leave them to cry!!! That is what happens. That is why you leave them, so they settle!! Benjamin is dead easy to settle from that point, cuddle and off.

What do you want him to do???
