gift weathered boards, not exciting to most but for about a week af and I have been trying to strategically friend my MIL with someone who can gift them, we finally sorted it last night and then this morning what I can give changed - typical lol

I can gift boards (as longs as mine haven't changed this morning too), but I only have FV to be Mums neighbour and only sent out gifts if I see a request. Nudge me and I will send

Oh Tia - did your bibs sell?

Caz, not fancy the Safari park instead of the Zoo?? I think the zoo is going a bit down hill. They've put the new monkey bit in but I think other areas have suffered because of it



eta: thats the fudging snow back again! Grrrrrrrr!!!

This is interesting to me as an attachment parent because as an attachment parent you carry LO around all the time in the hope that giving LO lots of support and security when they are little will make them more confident and independent later although I do remember something in the Sears book saying they can get a bit clingy at one stage but that it would pass and was nothing to worry about (might have to check that) I certainly wasn't expecting it to be months! At the moment Erin is very good and will go with anyone but I expect that probably will change. Anyone else have any views on this?

tbh, i was shocked the thing is, there was no tears it was all for attention. i was a bit surprised that she holds her when cooking as K is at the stage where anything he sees has to be grabbed and it horrifies me to think what would happen if she pulled a pan over herself and her mum. ( this is how my aunt ended up so badly scarred). mum said that as a baby, no-one was allowed hold her DD at all and i dont think this has changed. i'm so different, when peeps came to see us in hospital and at home i was like 'here, hold him' lol!!

i s'pose every child is different and the more you meet other people the more they get used to different people. part of the problem my cousin has is she moved when her DD was a baby, from a town where she had loads of friends and family support to a small village where there was her, DH and DD. she hasnt been to any mums/baby groups till recently to meet other children either, which prob doesnt help.

i'll be interested in hearing how you get on especially as Erin gets older. Good Luck

Somnium

Woah you ladies can chat, I seem to be constantly playing catch up!

Anyhoo, wanted to say a big yeay and congrats to gymfiend, glad you were able to join us Havent read back yet so apologies if you already posted some but looking forward to pics of Guy

Kindof - you must be doing better than me, no way I have time to play farmville lol, tho saying that I did watch Up this afternoon Such a cute movie but now I need to add it to my must buy list! Just bought Toy story 1 and 2 on blu ray as Tahlies Easter pressie hehe.

Well HV came today, she was really lovely and not at all patronising like I expected. She's an ex midwife so makes me feel she knows a lil more about what she talking about. She asked how I was doing and mentioned that am really teary atm, she asked if I have suffered depression in the past and then we had a chat about personal stuff. She is putting me forward for the free baby massage classes as she thinks this may help, dont know how but as its something I was intrested in anyways its a bonus She is really pleased with Tahlie and comented on her ability to support her head so well already. She has lost 2oz but said she wasnt concerned as it could be just down to bowel/bladder movements, she took other measurements and tried to do the hearing test but with no joy as she was wide awake and although not crying wasnt being quiet enough. She gave me lots of leaflets and the Birth to Five book all really usefull stuff and info about appointments etc.Asked her about using dummy already to settle her on an evening and also using nipple sheilds, again really supportive and said if it keeps me BFing then to give it a try

Well OH is just heating thru roast that MIL made us, so will have that and continue to catch up and then maybe post again time allowing!

I personally think that attachment parenting, while a good idea in theory, is taking things too far. You don't have to carry them about 24/7 for them to be happy and independent. I think we all need a time out, time alone and that includes babies. Thats just my experience based on my own children, all of whom have shown me that they need some alone time several times day once they reached the 6month stage or there abouts. Example with Amber, she cries to get to bed, but you hear her playing in her cot for a good 15-30mins before going to sleep and the same again when she wakes. I'm not saying dump them and leave them on their own all day, but there is a balance to be found that is right for each parent and child.


I never ordered the science centre tesco things, how long do they take to come through? Anyone know?

Caz, blair drummond is a great day out, we have been a few times (actually go once a year) kids love it. Mind the wasps though....

Jillie/Jenny: Kieren is with me all the time. I've left him one at the ILs to go to a funeral, and maybe 3 or 4 times with OH just for half an hour to an hour.

He chums me about from room to room when I'm cleaning and stuff and pretty much never leaves my side.

Interestingly, I put him in a foward facing buggy (trying out the holiday buggy) and he couldn't settle cos he couldn't see me but if he could hear me he was fine. This was last week and hes been clingy teething so I don't know if that makes a difference.

When I was away at the funeral, he didn't cry for me but he cried when I came back and he saw me! It was then he realised I'd been away! GP's house is obviously too much fun!!

I'm back to work in 5 wks and I really don't know how he'll be, I think he'll be OK but as Jenny says, bit too late to change it now!

Hes off round to the IL's on Thursday for 2/3 hrs to see how he gets on and his great-grandparents are coming to see him there. I'll be 2 streets away in my house crying lol
