Oh, forgot to tell you all, Amber has cracked drinking from a sippy cup (the free TT one you get from the HV) She looked really excited when she worked out that if she closed her mouth and sucked, she got more juice! Then she screamed ta me when I took it off her.

Free cup from HV?

In fact, should I be seeing my HV? Haven't had a home visit since the one after Andrew came home. I take him to clinic for weighing, and they always ask how I'm doing and whether I've got any other problems. But should I be having home visits too? (with free sippy cups? )

GISI, amen!! it sucks and I can't manage to start dieting much less stick to anything

Susan, you sneaky girl - happy birthday!

Am had a valve cup where she sucked to get juice out, health visitor told me to get a free flowing cut so she learns the difference between a bottle teat and a cup.

All very well but i now have to mop the kitchen floor repeatedly when she goes up and door in her walker shaking it directly on the floor lol

We get a visit at weaning time, anywhere between 3 and 6 mths really and they bring a bookstart book bag with free books and a wee place mat and weaning info, a TT sippy cup and a toothbrush.

Maybe different up here?

Anyhow, positive thinking and all that, I've decided that my DGD is just a little Diva who loves all the attention. And I refuse to think of anything else!!!

Glam 'they' say to not use the valve cups but I can't remember why.
we didn't use them for Chris coz I was doing as I was told but had no problems so doing the same for Ed - although atm he's getting water from a bottle to try to get him used to them.
He likes to sit swinging his arm spraying the floor with water from the TT cup though

Tigs - I'd deffo ask HV about visits, you get free books too

get well vibes for Poppie


Happy Birthday Susan!

I so need to get dietting but I'm finding it so bloomin hard to stick to anything.

I was like that, until i met Slimming world! I have my off days, but its much much easier than Rosemary Connelly, or Weight watchers etc. no counting or measuring. just eating!


I didnt know it was your birthday Susan - hope you have had a lovely day!
tara- hope Poppie is good again soon.xx
