    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?
    They all have a bit of a clingy phase when they realise that they're not attached to you, some recover quicker than others...

    I also think that part of personality is in there anyway, some babies are destined to be clingy no matter what you do IMO
    Completely agree with this... I was on my own with A and didn't get much family support until she was much older (walking and talking older) but she's always been a very independany child, happy to go off with people... She had a bit of a wobble when she was about 2 1/2 that lasted until the 2nd day of nursery... I made sure I did everything I could to make it easier on her, (stayed with her in the church creche instead of leaving when she wasn't looking which seems to be a favourite...) We also co-slept and breastfed until she was nearly 3...

    My friends little girl was so clingy, she wouldn't let anyone else pick her up even if her Mum was in the room... My friend had to stop working because she wouldn't even stay with her Dad... She was not an attached parent, no co-sleeping at all... It was purely personality...

    Glam, I worry what people think when I'm feeding Rhys - with him being so little, I mean :cool: I'm waiting for some opinionated oik to come over and tell me I shouldn't be feeding my "four" month old crumpets or chips :p :rotfl:

    Aw, what do you think you would say?

    I was getting funny looks in a coffee shop last week cos I gave Jack some of my cake and dipped my finger in mt hot chocolate for him - it could have been just because he was being a noisy !!!!!!!

    Well said!
    Its all about not shoving views so far down peoples throats you kick off the gag reflex ;)
    Although dieting is one of those things where unless people are being told that they are disgusting for being fat, it all gets taken fairly light heartedly anyway, to be fair :) but I know exactly what you mean!

    I was just taking advantage of you being here (I miss you!!) and actually being MSE since you tempted me into buying the chocolate for them and it's been sat in the fridge ever since. Too rich to just eat so I need to do something with it ;):p

    Anyway, how are you? How's Seth? How is working more days going? :)
  • Cream cheese and pineapple with black pepper is lush!

    I do exercise Sami, it's just that at the moment I undo it all by pigging out too much.

    SM - oh fresh pineapple ages since I had it, would it be ok with the pre-prepped but not in tins pineapple? A whole pineapple would go to waste before Katie and I could eat it all.

    Glam - If we order a hot chocolate with cream - we don't get the cream Katie has it. It's how I discovered her first tooth, the spoon scraped it when I was feeding her the cream!
