He is a cool dude Krystal :cool: especially in your non-gay-buggy!!


Sami - I keep meaning to say. We picked up some Spanish baby paracetamol when Benjamin was poorly over there and you get a little syringe that attaches to the bottle and you only have to give 1.5ml - much easier to administer than calpol!

If you know anybody going to Spain it may be worth getting them to bring you some back (if Ed is still struggling with medicines?)

Knocked Benjamin out for 3 hours straight too :rotfl::rotfl:

Glad it was manly enough for him

In Tunisia the infant paracetamol comes with a little cup and you measure it out based on their weight rather than a blanket dose... It's toffee flavour too! (And cost 3 dinar which is about £1.50!)

Aww SS sounds very eventful! Glad I'm only going to a caravan for our holibobs

Before Daniel I would say I was the one who made us late the majority of the time, but now it's DH, kinda winds me up, but as he's my chauffeur I can't complain (too much).

Talking of DH I do love him, I'm upstairs on the pc in the back room and he's downstairs watching TV, anyway I had a coughing fit, he cam running up the stairs and looked very puzzled, when I asked what's up he could have sworn he heard me throwing up and he had bought the "sick bucket" (spare washing up bowl) up to me. :rotfl:

Choppy - I would just leave her to it TBH. Offer a finger food at each meal but give her what she wants to eat too.
I hated it when Benjamin wouldn't eat whilst we were on holiday, it is so stressful worrying that they have enough inside them.



Tomorrow is my last day BF I don't think Benjamin will miss it but I still feel a little sad.

Sorry, we cross-posted. Yep, I think it'll be a mistake to make a big deal of it. I need to chillax!!

for stopping BF. You have done so well though, and you did make me :rotfl: when you had leaky boobies at work.

Loving the new Mr Cool Dude avvy!

Choppy - I dont know if shes fussy. Jack is a monster who eats everything - he tired to eat me! OH gave him an apple core on Saturday with some apple left on it and he managed to break bits of apple off! :eek: I struggle to eat apples with teeth! :rotfl:

I really think he has one coming through - we've had screaming all evening so just administered paracetamol and its strangely quiet. :cool:

:rotfl: Bless him, he sounds so cute.

SS - sorry to hear your holiday was a nightmare. Bet you need another one to recover!

I took Ambrosia Creamed Rice pots with me because Benjamin will do anything for rice pudding...

...when he was poorly and he stopped even eating them I was traumatised. I was just telling AF that when his tooth came through the change in his appetite was immediate. On the plane on the way back he was grabbing my ham sandwich out of my mouth :rotfl:

Don't worry too much if she doesn't seem to gain a lot of weight in the next few weeks, bear in mind that she's getting a lot more mobile and active... Using up all those calories that are going in... I also believe that if they were hungry they would eat... Some days I'm hungrier than others... It stands to reason babies are the same... Try not to stress over it...

Oh yeah, and the first time I took Aimee abroad she was 20months old and all she ate for the entire 2 weeks was fried eggs and toast in the morning and spaghetti in the evening... And towards the end of the second week she wasn't even eating that!!!

I can also remember going on holiday with my Nan and Ambag when I was about 5/6 and getting all homesick and not wanting to eat anything...

Ha ha, we've got the holiday fun to come in September.

I have to say that I'm not a massive eater, so she perhaps gets some of it from me. Sometimes I can eat loads, but most of the time I don't have big portions.

Oh, Mfd... The ladies at the end of the number in my signature will be happy to talk to you if you feel sad at stopping... You have done an amazing job! You grew that baby inside you and nourished him so well for the last year!!!

EUGHHHGH. That's minging and why does he have a pair of beige knickers next to him? Bet he licks them in between meals.

I had a spoonful of cereal half way to my mouth when I read that. Thanks. :cool:

SS, your holiday sounds much fun! Typical man. DH is such a lazy !!!! when getting ready to go out. I see to the kids, I dress the kids, I get the kids jackets and shoes looked out, I pack up, I get myself ready, I find his sodding shirt/wallet/jumper/jacket while he sits and plays with his damn phone :mad: Or lies in bed if it's an early one. And seriously, don't read back, has nobody sent you a PM with all the goss yet?

Ooops. Sorry

I feel like a shopping binge in town tomorrow. Really have to go get Keira's fringe sorted somehow, it infuriates me.
