    Can you answer my question then as to where "they" say you should be aiming for all drinks in a cup (which sounds like you should be aiming for giving up bottles)?

    At our one year check up when V was 13 months, the HV said that "she should be off bottles by now". She'll have water or juice from the sippy cup, but not milk. :( I'm quite happy for her to have her bedtime bottles of milk for another year at least.

    Mel We've got the cheap Ikea cot too - it's really nice and there is absolutely no problem with it, unless you really need a drop side?

    Hugs for Caz and Charlie. It's scarey how poorly they can become so quickly.

    V seems to be over it now. A couple of wet poops earlier today, but she had loads for tea with no ill effects, and had bottle, and went to bed with no incidents!

    L was sick at 6ish this morning, then 11ish on the bathroom floor. :eek: I asked if she'd not made it to the toilet in time, but she had, but was sitting on the toilet because she 'needed' too! Poor love! She's not been sick/diawoowoo since, but hasn't eaten anything either. :(

    :T:j For clever rolling babies! :j:T

    Sami - that's why I like it, that and it was easier to chat to her whilst walking as we could see each others faces. I can count on one hand the number of times it forwards facing.

    Hugs for L.

    I have to be careful when have tummy bug as I have a habit of blacking out whilst I'm being sick. If I'm feeling sick I have to make sure I shut the bathroom door as our bathroom is so small that black out I'm at risk of banging my head on the door.

    Personally, I don't give a shoite what anybody says - I am happy for Benjamin to take a bottle during the day until he is at least 18 months...or more if he wants/needs them. Probably for as long as he is a 'baby' and needs to nap during the day...maybe (not thought before I saw the discussion today)

    Stuff 'them' :p

    Hugs winging there way to Caz & Charlie xx

    Been to see the new Robert Patterson film tonight. T'was very good with an ending I didn't see coming!

    Just popped on FB and a girl from school has put on there about the name for her new baby due in June. She already has a boy named Bailey and a Girl named Chardonnay and the new girl is going to be called Comfort (as in Southern anyone?) I think this girl has issues! Honestly I'm not that chavtastic (I apologise now if anyone has a child named any of these names :cool:)

    what is Kai in now mel?

    His cot...But it is white so I want a wooden coloured one to go into the boys room:p All the furniture in the small room is white and wooden in the bos room, I want it to match, am silly I know!!

    3 - No I won't need a drop side...The white one that newbie will have does have a drop side but I barely ever used it tbh, so not bothered...as long as it keeps kai contained, and is nice and comfy for him...
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
