    Mmmm Elle, crumpets.

    Jenni, you a lurker or have I missed you before? You gonna join hun?

    :j Hello, I've just started lurking recently! I've enjoyed reading the posts on here. I've got a little boy and he's nearly 17 weeks old. I love being a mummy. I've never been so tired or busy but it's worth every minute.

    I'm looking forward to chatting with you all on here.

    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 !!!!!!!

    I had the big speech on the tip of my tongue last time, just didn't need to use it. I'd just tell them he's really (*counts on fingers* :o) ten and a bit months old, he was very early and didn't have the best start so his size is the least of his worries - and every chip helps him grow bigger :p :cool:

    However, if you find your local drop in clinic and go along, or call your GP and ask to meet your HV, you can get one then. But it's only a cheap little cup, actually I have another one if you want it!
    If I make it to weighing clinic this week, I'll ask the HV about whether we're meant to have a home visit to discuss weaning (though she did visit just before we started, mainly because that's how long it took to get a first visit!) and whether there are any freebies I'm missing out on.

    Thanks for the offer of the cup but, because I didn't know I could get a freebie, I've already bought a TT sippy cup and another sucky-style cup.

    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? :)
    Aww thank you, its nice to be missed!! ;)

    I'm suffering from the effects of too much work and rushing round like a blue arsed fly at the moment to be honest, run down, keep getting colds and mouth ulcers and things, but not a lot I can do about that except enjoy a nice relaxing week off next week!! Apart from that, everything is pretty good, I am feeling the pressure a bit less at home with working, and I am convinced that taking on the extra day was the right thing to do, I now feel when I'm at home with Seth I make more time for him so we can enjoy our time together, which has meant I'm on here less. Also have had kitty problems, one of them has a mouldy infected face like Two Face off of Batman (lush), and some fish which have also been taking up time! So yeah, pretty busy but happier, so its all good :)

    How are things with you? Have you started back at work yet, it must be looming if you havent already? How do you feel about leaving Rhys? Is the plan still for him to be with your mum while you're at work?
