Yes, he was doing his usual morning banging ritual .

I didn't realise he'd cut himself at first, then saw blood all over his white school t-shirt! :eek: Then paniced thinking he'd split his wrist - but when I washed it it was only a couple of little grazes.

I used Olibas Oil on a tissue under my pillow when Jack was in our room :silenced:

Well Done Holly and David for being good! My sister is moaning about the new Active Fit nappies (the Sesame Street ones) leaking after 2 hours but I find them OK during the day and we use Baby Dry at night. We have had a few leaky ones but I suspect its where J is a wriggle bum and I've not put it on tight enough

Oh 3 - big hugs. Was it during his banging routine? Perhaps this will put a stop to it, I would get a cheap one. I only use mine for bottles and cooking rice or baked beans

Actually it was an Active Fit. I usually put Baby Dry on at night too if I have both in, although when I have used Active Fit, it's never been a problem. I expect hubby didn't put it on very well as he was commenting the other day how much longer her legs seem these days (as he failed to restrain her from putting her feet in the poo!) and she is wriggling much more!

Gym - We tried Holly in the Antilop when she was about 5 months old and we felt she was too small. We bought a Chicco Polly highchair as it looked more secure, but actually didn't use that much either as she slipped down in it. I don't think she was big and strong enough to be comfortable in either highchair until she was about 8 months, so everyone must be different. I think most people usually feed them in the bumbo/on their lap/in a rocking chair etc if they are youngish when you start weaning.

SJ - Have a nice day with Millie's Mum and tell her we said hello! x

3 - Hope your day gets better.

Glam - why has your avvie disappeared??!

Hello Elliot has been driving me insane for a while now lol-keeps me on my toes! He's doing really well, especially with eating. He insists on feeding himself with his little fork and does quite a good job!

Quick Question!- Elliot loves screaming, is this just another phase he will get over? The more I tell him shhh the more he grins and does it more! The looks I get from people! He doesn't do it because he's having a paddy, just for the fun of it! He seems to enjoy the attention as he smiles at people who look!

Aww, how cute! L has been trying to teach V to use a fork, by saying stab-stab as she picks something up with hers. V is copying saying dab-dab.

I hope the screaming is another phase - we're having it too, she's being very screamy and shouty and thinks it's really funny.

She was really cute last night though. She kept going to the living room door, poking her head out into the hall, shouting a load of babble then coming back in an closing the door. Repeat for half an hour! :rotfl:I'd love to know what she thought she was shouting, and who she was shouting at.

Wow 3, his banging must be quite hard to break the microwave! Will he have a problem now that the microwave isn't there to bang or will it move to something else?

Keely, he probably just likes the sound he makes... If he's not distressed then I would just ignore the sound... If people stare then just smile, shrug and say "He's a typical man, loves the sound of his own voice..."

That's really strange because the only difference between clarityn and neoclarityn is that clarityn contains the active and inactive isomers whereas neoclarityn just contains the active isomer so if clarityn wasn't working I can't see how neo-clarityn would.

lol i always assumed neoclarityn must have been stronger! it must have been psychsematic(sp) I bet the doctor was laughing at me, esp when i went back and said it worked :cool:

Morning everyone!

Well yesterday was a very expensive day in the muso household. Holly decided to projectile vomit her milk the full length of the sofa saturating the laptop! Of course the laptop is now completely kaput! Have to use the annoying old whirring desktop until the new laptop arrives later today and DH can set it up. All I can say is thank god for overnight shipping! I was having a meltdown without it yesterday. Any tips on controlling reflux would be great!

On a happier note we had a pretty good night. Took DH a while to get H to sleep last night. Then she woke for feed at 2.30am and slept right through til 7.30! Thats the first time we've not had to get up at least twice in the night:j She's now having a little nap in her big girl cot!

Well done Beenie on sorting the Brats mother out:j

Some one actually asked me yesterday 'why is he screaming?' I simply replied because he wants to?! lol..... he does love his own voice

2 things...

1) Gym, we have the Antilop. He is a little too small for it in that he slumps to one side or the other, but you can either buy the air cushion that IKEA sell or use the 'free' version of a bunch of plastic bags wadded up and strategically placed around him! :rotfl: if we had a Bumbo, though, I'd use that, but we don't have anything else chair-like.

2) OMG, I just got a phone call that I've won a trip to the Outer Hebrides!!! The details have disappeared off the website so I don't know anything else, but omgomgomg - I comped all of 2007 & 2008 and never won a holiday and now 1 month back at it and I wonnnnnnnnnnn. :j:j:j
