    Krystal - I think I may have seen big gay pram very similar to yours today. Have you got a pic so I can compare?
    Always happy to give the BGP an airing ;)

    Mfd, don't worry, we won't be in any desperate need for the buggy... I'm hoping to deposit in my Mum's boot once you bring it back...

    Small nephew update... A head oncologist has been sent the MRI to review and will be seeing him on Wednesday... Step sister is currently clinging to the hope that it's just a mistake... :( Doesn't want to talk to anyone on the phone... But she knows we're all here for her...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    caz i love blackpool ... when i have a car thats the first place im going :D x
    We had a great time, between a bargain ebay caravan for £20 for 5 days inc passes, £300 in tesco vouchers also bought on ebay and £300 spending money. i would suggest getting all the vouchers and 2 for 1 ticket in as it saves a lot and makes it very:money:

    Krystal - so sorry to hear about your nephew, hope they've cvought it early enough that treatment wont be too invasive. You could be onto something that both Tahlie and Elliot are having a growth spurt what with only a day between them. And ya keeping calm deff helps, but doing it is another thing!

    Caz - yeay for winning tickets :) Oh and the breakie sounded lush too.
    Krystal i did quote you earlier but didnt notice it hadnt went up, i hope your nephew is ok and we are all sending huge vibes to get him better. love to you all!!!

    Thanks som! i think i phoned everyone to tell them as i was so excited :D i dont think i have ever won anything!!!!:j

    - Feeding! Don't worry if Elliott wants feeding more aften than 4hourly...I know it feels like you are forever feeding, burping, changing etc but it does get easier. Kai NEVER fed 4 hourly he was 3 hourly right up to weaning, although he did sleep through the night from 2wks old so I put it down to him getting his milk quota in through the day to last him over night too, if that makes any sense. Just go with the flow, try and maybe stretch him an extra half hour if you really want to, by distraction/cuddles and maybe see if he will take to that as a regular thing......Probably haven't helped at all but I remember I was the same with my first and my dad (of all people) turned around to me and said he is not a machine that can be programmed to set feeding, sleeping, pooping times!!! I think I told him to shut-up and I knew what I was doing....I now just go with the flow.....

    Yeah that makes sense its just that often he will wake for a feed and only drink 1 and a half oz and then want feeding again an hour later

    Perfect example coming up here lol he was fed 2oz at half 7 and now its ten past 9 and he has just woke wanting more :(

    I will be back lol

    Actually scratch that he seems to have just accepted his dummy and is falling back asleep (I think lol)

    Nope scratch that he did want feeding, and its taken us an hour to feed him, wind him, calm him down (lots of screaming :( ) and now he is in his basket, I hope this doesnt last long

    Som ah thats good about the water, how much are you giving her? I know he is a stinker isnt he (OH I mean lol) I cant wait to go to the lakes lol Elliot will be 7 months then EEK

    Just watching American Idol, loved Usher and P Diddy's performances!

    SJ yeah I did, I think I got the message across before, I mean thats the whole reason he is off lol not to paint models, I love the lakes too, I cant wait to take Elliot for his first trip there, I am so grateful to mam cos we couldnt afford to go away this year, we did want to go to centre parcs but like I say cant afford it lol

    Sami they are lush arent they, I know Elliot wont have a clue lol but I am looking foraward to taking him lol

    The eldest is having a tough time of it, school have reffered him to CAMHS, I think it was someone on here that has recently had dealing with them, I cant remeber the username right now, but it;s charlottes mummy from up newcastle way, ahh becles lol god I had right memory loss there! anyway, how did you find them?

    The lady we had was really nice. On the first appointment, I went on my own and explained all what was going on with James. He came with me on the rest of the appointments and we just worked through all the things that were causing problems and worked out ways of dealing with them.

    We had appointments after school, so she usually gave me a quick call mid afternoon on the day of the appointment just to see how things were going and if there was anything I wanted to tell her without James hearing.

    We've been discharged now, but she left me her direct telephone number so if I ever need her again, I can just ring direct and arrange an appointment rather than going through a GP referral as that takes ages.

    We don't have meat on Good Friday as the boys go to Catholic schools, so although we are not Catholic, we still observe all the traditions they learn at school.
    Here I go again on my own....
