    CM won't wear a sling because she has a bad back. She will carry her round for a while but, rightly, says that the other children need her too

    I have a ridiculous stupid back but the right kind of sling is grand (obviously depending on what's actually weong with her back). A two should carry like a wrap or a mei tai will spread the weight across her back. It could certainly be more gentle on her back than carrying her in arms. Plus it will give her two free hands to look after the other children while Caitlyn get reassurance while she settles in. Can you delicately point her in the direction of this?

    Fritha how do you win a Wii in a 'roundabout' fashion? As opposed to just winning a Wii? :D

    You're the first person to ask! I won something else which I sold to buy a wii, I'm not sure a dare say what on here for fear of being lynched but if you're curious I'll put in white below...


    A bugaboo bee :o

    Ooh Fritha, seeing you the other day spurred me on to get the hawk out.... she started licking my cleavage, then tried to give me a hicky there :eek: and also bit me...

    Have I been listening to too much metal lately or does 'the Hawk' sound terrbly rock? *headbangs and does devil horns*

    Aaaaaaaaanyway, hooray for the hawk, I know the "there's milk in there and if I try hard enough I'll get it out" manouvre well, Celia tends to do the open mouthed bumping thing, first time I put her on my back she did it which I think gets points for optimism! If you loosen the straps and shuffle her down you can feed her in it :-)

    I've never won anything ever! I started doing some of the comps too but the people on the comps board seem to do it for a career and i really can't put that much time into something that might never pay off lol!!

    I enter the occasional one on the Morrisons and goodtoknow sites, cos they send me emails.
