    :j Go Rhys!!!!!

    He's just making sure you don't miss it when you go back to work ;)

    Kindof - Just so you know, when you make the comfort up you have to use hot water as it won't mix properly in cold. I was adding the powder to cooled boiled water (like I did with the C&G) and I had loads of tiny crystals all over the bottle. They need hot water to mix properly.And when you put them in the fridge they do settle so it looks like gone off milk cos it's thin and watery at the bottom and thick and creamy at the top. It's not a problem just shake it up and warm it when you give it to him.

    If it was me, I'd just start him on the Comfort and save the cartons for one offs when you are out and about. Too many changes in milk isn't good for their tums and also the Comfort takes a few days to take effect. Also you may find he starts pooing a lot more or he might go a little less - this is just cos you've changed his milk and his pooing will settle down.
    We went from poo's every other day to every day when changing to the Comfort but when I put him on Hungry Baby I think he went about 4-5 days without going.

    Lots of poo talk from me there! :cool:

    Any tips on getting LO to bend there legs??? J keep his legs dead straight when I try to sit him down. He just loves standing up and even did two steps for Daddy tonight but he's still dead wobbly! :rotfl:

    Thanks for that post that helps a lot

    OOh, just remembered. We had a worrying thing today too.

    A couple of weeks ago at L's gym class, they called the parents in for an urgent meeting. They said that G, the main Gym instructor had had a complaint made about him, and that he wouldn't be able to work at the gym while it was investigated. They couldn't tell us any more, but wanted to tell us something to prevent the rumours starting.

    Anyhows, as I was walking to the train station this afternoon, the headline in the local evening paper caught my eye. 'Child sex arrest of gym teacher', with a photo of said gym instructor. :eek:

    It just made me feel a bit sick. He's a lovely bloke, works at the gym with his wife and daughter. L has been going there since she was 4.

    I suppose as a gym instructor you're open to accusations?! But i think it's really wrong that he's on the front page of the paper, with photo, before he's been found guilty of anything. :( Even if it all comes out ok, people will remember the accusation.

    Anyhows, I just needed to get that off my chest. :o

    Before i definitely booked it, I asked everyone if this date was suitable. and everyone said yes. now guess what? 4 out of 24 invited are definitely attending. all the rest have made excuses. im a bit upset about it. prob shouldnt let myself get annoyed by it all though.

    oh no 3! I thinks its scarey when it all comes out in the papers and could be untrue! we know someone here who was accused of a sex attack and it was untrue the girl said it as she had been caught in the act! the guy has had to put his house on the market and move as everyone has tarred him guilty and the girl is walking away scot free!

    oh 3 that is awful! I know someone who I'm pretty confident is innocent but is in prison for similar, his step daughter didn't get her own way so reported him :(

    3, I agree. I don't like the way things like this are publicised before someone is found guilty. 2 teachers were accused of downloading child !!!!!! at a school I worked at a few years ago - all over the papers, then one of them was found to be innocent. His life was wrecked by the whole thing.

    I'm thinking it's really, really wrong to name someone before any guilt has been found. Whatever happens now, this mans life, and his familys life could be ruined.

    As my Mum said earlier, someone could have got a moody on because of something gymnastics related, and could say anything against him.

    He's never alone with the gymnasts, and his wife and daughter coach with him, along with another 5 coaches!
