be careful using micowave or electric steralisers for soothers as the plastic can melt.

have you had some melt?

we did everything of Chris's in the micro the only thing that melted was the nurofen syringe that probably says don't microwave :rotfl::o

Som - What does T wear when you have her in a Sleeping Bag and do you put any sheets on her as well and what tog is the SB and what temp is the room, sorry for all the questions lol[\quote]

kindof - sleeping bag is 2.5 tog and she has a vest and sleepsuit under it but no sheets or blankets. No idea on the temp as we open the window when we go up and the room cools down. But am sure this particular sleeping bag works best cos it's quite dinky on her, the others we have are alot longer.

Aaaaaargh, went to Next to buy 2 pairs of £8 leggings and came out £110 worse off, how did that happen:eek:

Also went to TK Maxx and Tesco, (Sami they didn't have those little trs in) Then stopped at Asda for food on the way home. I am shattered now and aching, but at least I am dressed nice;)

Boys are back from school so will need to point them in the direction of Foooooooood!

3 - I got a quote off total tinting today £225! Also I have found a net and padded surround mat on eBay.....It reckons it fits any make trampoline, I haven't ordered yet, think it was £29.99/£39.99?

just read this:

and thought it was really good

Yeah, but who in their right mind would name their baby girl 'Buford'? Or 'Hildegarde'! :rotfl:

Sorry, had to say it!

However, it does make a good point, but it's not just breastfed babies. Formula fed babies do this as well (and I have yet to see a 4month old left to hold their own bottle but that's a different matter). Amber wakes up at night for a feed if she hasn't had enough during the day. Most babies will do the same.

For those of you who use a dummy how often do you sterilise them and do you just use your bottle steriliser? Also once there done how do you store them?

Erm.. never.. I rinsed them under the tap when really fluffy and washed them in the DW/washing up water when new or covered in snot or food

BUT.. I never sterilised a thing.. EVER.. waste of time.. if it is washed properly it is clean enough, they are no longer sterile the second they are out of the steriliser so it is a completely pointless exercise..

:wave: Hello! I'm back, only been a fortnight :rotfl:

I've been quietly lurking on my phone when burping the LO at night but not had enough minutes in daytime hours to actually come on & catch up!

I think they're both lovely names

Maz I've got a couple of books that I rubbished when I was given them (in a kind of, ha, I'll know naturally the answer to everything for he is my child kind of way), the one I like best is a breakdown of your baby week by week, can't remember the name but will find it for you as I think it's great for reassurance :A

Mel sounds like you had a good shop All for you or for the kids? I love Next baby bits

Kindof today's my first day without OH too Was meant to be yesterday but he extended by a day and I felt pretty lost first thing, but somehow the day's passed?! Did you manage to go out & get the little man weighed? I feel your pain with the sleep, I've done 3 nights of the night feeding so OH can sleep, come 5oclock it's daddy time though

Someone somewhere mentioned a parasol for the Joolz? I need one too - anyone manage to find a cheap one? Seriously begrudge paying M&P prices, buying the footmuff was bad enough :eek:

Ok Guy's not letting me hang around much longer, quick pic since I've not posted one yet, hopefully it'll work?!

eta: He's now gone to sleep so more time!

Som we sterilise in the steriliser and put them in the pods the TT ones come in.

Anyone got any tips on recurring blocked ducts/mastitis? I thought I was dying of flu last week but a trip to the docs confirmed mastitis, the swollen red boob for some reason didn't ring any alarm bells with me, doh. Thing is, it's not clearing despite 4 days of antibiotics so far, still swollen and blocked though the sicky feeling is passing, and the other side keeps getting blocked too. I feel like sawing off my boobs and giving them to someone Or just giving up on expressing and using formula but however often I think that, the actual reality of doing it makes me want to cry even more than the boob pain
