    Tara I can't believe what your daughters had to go through. At a time when the hospital should be supporting her not making it harder for her.

    looking at others listed same time and none have any bids. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270539573530&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

    this is it, maybe i need to change something?? please let me knoiw :D

    Jillie, I wouldn't worry, you still have 3 days left of bidding. Bidding probably won't really start until the last day. I know it's frustrating and you can't help compulsively checking your auction. But I'd try and forget about it until Sunday and you may be pleasantly surprised by then.

    Edit: I usually only run all my auctions for only 3 days, because I can't stand the wait.

    Tara and Glam, good work :) I had heard most of the crappy things as they were happening, but all listed like that ... well I'm glad I don't live in Bristol lets put it that way.

    I was hoping to get a nap today while Izzy slept, but she fell asleep at half eleven and I was hungry :( I've washed up and just finishing making my lunch instead, so I'm going to have a relaxing sit down. Maybe I will get a nap tomorrow!

    Booglyboo - that made me :mad: about your in laws. Do they object to teething powders and calpol too?!

    Happy half-birthday Jack and Alex!

    Molly is 7 months today :)
    She's still snoozing on the sofa, must go check on her.

    Watching OBEM - I hope that Thai lady has her baby this episode, I just want to give her cuddles. And why won't that other one turn over? Her baby's never going to turn a right angle and burrow through the bed.

    Edit: DID SHE REALLY GET THAT BABY OUT IN ONE PUSH?!?!?!!?!?!?!!?!?!!?!?!!?!?!!?

    lol this post made me laugh, I think when it's your 5th baby, 4th in 4yrs you must be very in tune with whats happening down there. it was mad wasn't it, MW saying you'll never get her to turn and then x mins later 'pop' urrggh waaahhh :rotfl:
    Not a LLL workshop but quite a few others, I imagine they're similar... What did you want to know?


    That's pretty much how both my babies delivered, 3 pushes for Aimee and Caitlyn just got expelled with no actual concious effort of my part... In fact I was trying not to bear down as per instructions from the midwife....

    Just walked all the way to cradle club and when I got there it was cancelled... Nice of them to ring me!

    I should take it as a sign to do something constructive instead of just sitting on the old microwave and looking at the Internet on the iPod...

    why are you sat on the microwave???

    Jillie I'd put more in the description on ur bumbo, I usually copy the description from the manufacturers website and then say as new with no marks or damage (or detail any marks there might be) from pet and smoke free home (if thats the case for you?) I'll bid the starting bid if you like? maybe the watchers are all trying for one ending sooner first/ have a snipe on :)

    jillie, I think most eBayers, like me, don't bid on things until the very last minute. I will watch something for days, but literally only place my bid with 45 seconds to go! I'm sure you'll sell it for a good price ;).
    top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

    would like to win a holiday, please!!

    Boogerly - (sorry i know thats not spelt correctly but I'm feeling lazy :o) grrr at the ILs, I'm a narky cow and would tell them I won't tell lies to save their face
    you have reminded me though ...Glam I was going to suggest an amber teething necklace for Jack or a Hazelwood one, the Hazelwood ones are being tested by BB and they're supposed to help reflux too
