  • You know there's buses round your way right?

    I can't remember the last time I got on a bus :o

    I know that there is one near to me that goes to Bilston bus station but I would never have thought that there could be one from you to me!! You are welcome anytime!

    Can I just ask a quick question

    What age did your kids use highchairs until?

    I think Luca was 2yrs 4mths and jaden was just under 2yrs......I am meant to be buying one today but wondering if I need it, Kai will be 19mths min, IF I start weaning at 4mths!!

    Mel x

    I would leave it and if when it comes to the time you think you need it then buy an Antilop for a tenner.
    I certainly wouldn't go buying another expensive highchair on the offchance that you might need it.
    Also, for the first few months you could will probably find that they eat at different times.

    Scruffy, I'm surprised they didn't just keep her in instead of sending you homw at that time? Hope she feels better soon! xx
    :D
    So were we but I think lack of beds might have been a prob as we were assessed in the waiting room of the ward after being in A + E for 2 hours. Never mind we saw a lovely doc. Hopefully some more lucozade today will do the trick and she will be on the mend soon. so far today 15mls of fluid has stayed down!!

    Caz Hope Charlie is on the mend soon and Abi and Erin don't get it soooo bad (((((hugs)))) to you all

    Off to keep giving el 5mls at a time me thinks this might be long day.

    Choppy, You will probably find she'll be able to pull herself up on the wobbly things soon enough... She needs to try on the wobbly things to work out her centre of gravity and stabilize herself... Eventually she'll be able to stand up at her walker without just tipping it over...

    Caitlyn climbed up and stood on the seat of her little tykes rocker yesterday... I wouldn't let hubby pull her down, I figure she needs to learn that getting up means having to get back down again too... Just like I always slide her bum off the sofa and put her feet on the floor rather than just dump her on the floor...

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Thanks Krystal, that makes perfect sense, and I hadn't even considered that. I'll just let her get on with it then! xxx

    I like Bailey as a name, only an implication that they were named after the drink would make it bad. Otherwise, I like :)

    Very miserable for poor Caz and Charlie :( hope it's something the hospital can turn around quickly, and ack for the other mini-Scots falling sick too :( how miserable, hopefully they don't get hit so hard...

    Re "babysitting" - it's been ranted about here before ;p I must say I use it, when either of us is staying in while the other one gets to go out. "Oh, why isn't your OH here too, I'd have loved to catch up with her?" "We couldn't get anyone to cover so she's stayed in to babysit" - etc. The point being, it's 'being at home while the other half goes out somewhere that pre-baby you would have both gone to' if that makes sense! It does in my head :)
    :doh: I am soooo slow I only just realised they were all drinks :o:rotfl:

    Babysitting is only done my teenagers for spare cash, My OH/ILs/'rents just "have the boys" :p

    Thank you hunny. Where's the M58 :o, I try to avoid coming through Liverpool where possible.

    ETA: I've just done an AA route planner. I didn't even know where Wigan was :o - it'd be silly to go round the long way. So yes, i'll be coming from the M58.


    Hugs for El & Charlie. V seems loads better but still has the smelliest wet poops. L hasn't been sick since yesterday lunchtime, but hasn't eaten yet. :(

    :mad: For all of the grumpy OH's!
    you'll be fine coming from m58 coz you only just touch the stupid saddle junction then :)
    ooh I know where WM lives now, right near my best mate :D

    Poor Charlie, I wonder if it could be swine flu, doesn't that cause a raging temp that doesn't go down?
    Hope all the other ill bubbas get well soon too!

    Mel - I might be selling my chicco polly by the time you need it.
    although my instinct is £30 is really good price and you should make a profit if you end up not using and selling on!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Well done commando crawling and rolly babies

    Hugs to sickie LOs and bigguns

    We've just been to the dr with Molly - she has weird red bumps and apparently it's just a side effect of her growth spurt *shrugs*

    Lots of screming here shouty baby must go but hugs for everyone.

    MFD is it just work stressing you out or do you need to vent?
