    Hi Aless, just catching up. T wont take a bottle very well either but since I started weaning him I have been giving him a little cooled boiled water from a Tommee Tippee First Cup which is a free flow one. He seems to be getting the hang of it better than the bottle lol!! I was thinking that once he is really good at it, it might be easier to go straight to that for expressed milk, unless there is any reason I shouldnt anyone?!

    This was actually what I was thinking too which is why I bought it...never hurts to try!

    Aww poor Charlie! I hope Caz is ok too, she hates hospitals :(

    FBB & Aless past 6mth+ 'they' reckon you should be aiming for all drinks to be in a cup, I think that's where we're heading with Ed too (obv boobie milk can still come from a boob tho lol)
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Well I started T's bedtime routine an hour earlier at 7 tonight which was literally as soon as he started to moan. He had his last feed and fell asleep (I will work on the falling asleep on his own once I have got his bedtime sorted I think, have managed it the odd time). He has then just woken about an hour later and had another feed, dont mind this at this time of night if he is stocking up for the night fingers crossed. So we will see what happens next!!

    PS My Next clothes order came today, got some lovely new jeans, tops and a cardi, well overdue methinks!! :)

    Soz for self indulgent post again. Need to start making notes as I read as posts I want to comment on as I doubt myself if I have remembered the correct name for the person. ie. I want to congratulate about passing the theory test, am I right that its Searching Me... please tell me Im right!!

    Get well soon Charlie!! Hope you are coping ok Caz. x

    Sami - where does it say you should be aiming for all drinks in a cup from 6 months? It was my understanding that it is recommended you stop bottles from around 1 year old, and introduce a sippy cup at around 6 months with water to get them used to the different way of drinking. But I have never read that you should be giving up bottles at 6 months??

    FBB - Yes, it was SM who passed her theory! Well done SM! And good for you for treating yourself. I love waiting on a Next delivery, but I usually just order stuff in the sale and only for Holly now as I never know what size I am going to be these days! Oh to be a size 12 again!

    Harley - sorry you are ill again. Good news about Kezia taking the milk though. Fingers crossed it will continue if you get it changed. If it's their mistake, they can't have any complaint really.
