    it could be the formula that is 'bunging' hinm up. K was like that on the Hipp milk but once we stopped using it he was ok after a day or so.

    stupid question- where would i get a rhubarb root from as i couldnt see any in the garden centre? i thought about asking on freecycle?
    My Mum bought us one off a car boot last year but alas it didn't make it in my waste land of a garden...

    Dora, Hubby would have gotten a kick in the back for that kind of behaviour!!! Mine asked if he could have the potty the other week when he was ill... I wouldn't let him, he's a grown up, they use the toilet for all bodily fluid expulsions!!

    Bath time for the children... Aimee wants me to crinkle her hair so I'll have to got and get my hair crimpers back from 1988 in preperation... Got a wedding to go to tomorrow, hubby's cousin... We completely can't afford it, such a posh hotel... But it has a pool! :D
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    It took us two hours to settle him after his feed last night, he had awful pumpy wind, but its hurting him, and it seems to hurt him when he poos, any ideas guys?

    If it's just wind, the problems babies have is the wind is in lots of tiny little bubbles that they can't pass. What you need to do is something to get all the bubbles to join together in a big bubble that they can pass.

    Two things that worked with Charlotte was "walking" your fingers from side to side across her tummy. Press down fairly firm and you should feel a sort of popping feeling under your finger ends as the bubbles join up.

    The other one is "I love you". When he's on his back say "I" while pressing your fingers on his skin and moving them from under his rib cage down to his hip. Then say "love" while going under the ribs from left to right. Then "you" is an upside down U shape going from left hip, under ribs and down to right hip. Do that a few times and you should get a huge pump!

    She also always takes her sandwiches apart and eats the bits separately so I now just give her all the bits spearately rather than putting them together.

    I used to do that in the boys school lunchboxes for a change some days and they called it a Mammy-lea Lunchable instead of Dairylea :rotfl:

    Still busy here but managed to squeeze in a go on EA Active, so I've got jelly thighs now. Charlotte wanted to play and she was doing squats and stuff. Looked so funny, but I hope I don't look like that when I'm doing it :o
    Here I go again on my own....

    Been catching up but am a tad sleep deprived so retained pretty much non of it! Baby girl was at HV today and has gained 4oz and is now 8lb11oz then went for a wonder as was actually up and about. Apart from nappies didn't buy anything (unless you count stamps!)

    MIL visited yesterday and we walked down to tesco and did some food shopping, not only did she insist on paying for it she picked up a cute lil outfit for T too :)

    T is def on a growth spurt atm as she is feeding every 2 hours and for much longer. Had a yuck night last night and got v lil sleep and ended up in abit of a state ( mucho tearage!) especially as OH was fast asleep and snoring his head off! The dog shows more concern, even if he wakes up he'll ask what's up but does nothing so what's the point grrr :(

    Evening everyone, hope everyones good?

    I tried to post earlier but just as i finished my laptop crashed , was well annoyed!! i need a new laptop the screen on this is going really dodgy !

    sept baby - funny u mentioned that pink tshirt earlier, jake was wearing the exact same one today!

    my tax credits have gone down £20 a week as well, maybe they'r docking everyone 10quid per child lol!! i think its since jasmine turned 1 actually they went down, cba ringing them tho to be honest, as little contact i have with them the better otherwise things end up getting complicated!

    does anyone here shop at farmfoods? got some vouchers through today, £5 off £50, let me know if anyone wants one,
