Sami, the box of Tampax lurking in my bathroom cabinet says it was made in June 2009 and they "expire" in June 2014

we have this one (in blue) and Kian loves it. he can splash with his hands or feet, play with his toys and i'm not worrying about holding a slippy baby in the bath. only thing is i cant get him to slope abit so i can clean his neck as he still hates being laid down in the water.

mum bought ours in a charity shop for a few euro. i'm keeping it for next one wheter its boy or girl as its fab.

our friend had the asda event one and their little boy got stuck as he;s such a chunky monkey.

I think I'll call my HV, I'm a bit worried about things he does with his feet aswell and it's pot luck if you get a good HV at clinic or not, last few times I've been it was the crap one that talks to you like your a moron that doesn't understand words longer than 3 syllables

We have a really crap one that I hate and I always try to avoid her. Shes just gone on Maternity Leave. Is it wrong that I wish a 13lb baby with a 50cm head circumference upon her??

Does anyone know enough about TC's to know if you get more if in receipt of income based JSA? I might be gearing up for a fight that doesn't exist, maybe they owe us even ???
off to find the calculator thing I think.

Not an expert but income based JSA would mean low income to me so I think you'd get more because of that?
http://taxcredits.hmrc.gov.uk/HomeNew.aspx Stick your details in here, I never use entitled to, this one much more simple as only for TC's

According to the calculator we've been getting around £350 a month too much!
That's over £4k :eek:

Sami - thanks for that don't know what I was expecting but that setsy mind at ease am sure an ultrasound won't be an issue.

Eek at TCs! Have no idea about them but they sound a mare! I wonder if I'll qualify for them when my smp starts cos ATM the website says no.

Nothing at all? Is your OH on a good wage then? (Sorry if that sounds cheeky, but we are £58k combined and still get them)

Afternoon

We moved into a dump a couple of years ago and after finishing the house its time for us to tackle the garden :eek:

its quite a big garden and i was looking for some help, we've already done a patio at the top for bbq, furniture etc, then were having a new lawn put down probs about 2/3 of garden, then the last 3rd we are splitting, one bit is going to be for growing veg's and stuff and the other we want as a play area to put swing, slide etc.

what kind of flooring (not the right word haha) would you put down?? or have you down??? i thought play bark might be best, but theres a lot of cats around and dont want to be finding poo in it all the time :mad: or more to the point dont want Am finding poo in there all the time :eek:

any ideas????
