MSE Parents Club Part 11

Glamazon

Fitzio - he's never really been attached to anything but I left him in the cot and he was eating teddy's legs and then when I went to check on him, he had him pressed right up to his face :eek: teddy is called Gorgeous George :cool:
It was our nickname for J when he came out of hospital and it felt weird calling him Jack!!!

The boys are playing 'a girl' on FIFA :eek: I soooooooo hope they lose :rotfl:

Sami - did it fit in the car?! I didn't see yoru post til about 3pm otherwise I would have met you for Chips or a Hot Dog!

Elle - I hadn't realised you were in work again. Are you doing all 10 KIT days?

yay for chris! Spurred by the dummy convo, i just bought 2 more of the mam ones...and realised that the one he's been using is only marked to 2 months! Also randomly picked up a weaning cup...no idea why as i don't plan on starring til june (and he doesn't even take bottles in the 1st place!)

Erin doesn't take bottles so I've just gone straight for a doidi cup and Erin is fine with it.

Glam I bath Erin every night - it's supposed to help as it raises their temperature which is what naturally happens when you are about to go to sleep and it goes down when you are about to wake up - I hope I have that the right way round!

Sami - I am pleased you brought up the Ikea mattress thing cos we have one then I read that its meant to be waterproofed? is there something I can put on it?
...

Kindof I got some disposable mattress protectors for waters breaking as a pack of 4 in boots and since I didn't use them all at the time I'm using them now under Erin's bedding.

Redmel I have a babasling. I love it as it's so quick to get on and off but only use it in the house as more than 1/2 hr and my shoulder hurts. It was a bit difficult when Erin was very small to get her comfy but now I just shove her in sitting on my hip while I get on with a few jobs and she loves it.

Get well soon vibes to Charlie and hugs for Caz

Hugs to Fitzio as well, sounds like you had a stressful day!

ss probably too late but I got Erin this seat and she loved it as did her 6 months older cousin. It needs to be quite big so it is stable.

Sorry if I missed anyone, just done a massive catch up and can't remember half of what I read|!

Can I just say:

Andrew rolled over from back to front half-a-dozen times today :j :j :j :j :j

After a sleep though, he'd forgotten again what to do with the bottom arm :rotfl: So he's having to learn it again. I left him on the rug on my parents floor, he rolled himself over and started commando crawling out of the room before anybody noticed :rotfl:

oh sorry I thought I'd quoted Mel asking about the cot then didn't notice it not come up
I got the sniglar £39 one, looks quite nice actually! Chris was straight in there with him lol poor Ed can never escape his big bro I took a pic of them but I'm watch panorama on the iphone so can't show you yet.

Oooh when you get a chance I would LOVE to see it:) I need a cot for kai, but as he won't be in it for very long I want a cheap one...was thinking of either that one or getting one secondhand out the paper. How much is the mattress to go with it?

That bottom arm is a pain eh??? I totally didn't recognise you there! :cool:

oh I'm forgetting everything today!

Fitzio

Well done Andrew!!!

Glad Katie had a nice birthday. I saw Gruffalo Trunkies in John Lewis yesterday and thought of you!

Off to make some HM baby food a la Annabel Karmel! I have made stuff for us today (including Carrot & Coriander soup for the first time), so it's Holly's turn now. I will puree it well!!!

Might be back later. x

Thanks.. I was mainly thinking of it for around the house so I can have my hands free to deal with K, he is still only a baby himself and will only just be 15mths when the newbie arrives. I was thinking about things like sorting his lunch out etc....that may become stressfull if newbie is also screaming for attention!!

At the end of the day I have no idea of how newbie will be, and I may be pleasantly surprised and have another chilled baby like Kai:)
