    ooo Jillie thanks for the reminder! Will have to remember to brush his tooth!

    How long do they tend to take to come through from when they break the gum? Or is that a 'how long is a piece of string' question?

    Hi everyone,
    Sorry I've been AWOL for a bit - alright, perhaps a lot! Still adjusting to having two children, not one... and been desperately ebaying all of A's clothes that have gotten too small for her - I WILL unclutter my house!
    Just wanted to say a huge Congrats to Mel (and anyone else I may have missed). I have tried to lurk, but I find I can't keep up with this thread, but I promise I will do better...

    Slightly late - Congratulations!!! How are you enjoying being Mrs V?

    Glam--- not too long. the bottom 2 are fully through and have been for a couple of weeks. the top 4 are much slower at coming through although i must be lucky as Kian never seems to be in pain from them. i htink in the 2 1/2 months since the first one broke the gum, he's had calpol or powders about 3 times.
    and sooo sharp!!! his top 4 are the 2 'fangs' which looks really funny and then the middle 2. will try and take a picture today to show them but its hard to get him to stay still long enough.

    She refunded, she just left a snotty "I'm out of pocket, next time say something sooner" note with it. And I really don't think it's my fault. But I can understand why she's upset. There again, I refunded something that didn't arrive yesterday that left me £10 out of pocket because I didn't have PoP - it was entirely my fault.

    I find it incredible how much stuff goes missing in the post. I have sold 3 items recently which never arrived, 2 of which were posted at the same time. Where do all these missing parcels go???

    EA - I know what you mean about the 'husband' thing. I celebrated my first anniversary in March, and it still feels strange to have a 'husband'...

    Thanks Jillie!

    It is razor sharp! He was crying Monday night with it and then last night he woke at 10pm and he was bright red and crying proper little tears so gave him more powder, some gel and Nurofen and he was OK for the rest of the night.

    He now has a cough though - courtesy of creche as they were all coughing this morning!

    I suspect that some bastage is wandering around wearing my lovely summer dress, and another bastage is carrying a baby in the cow print sling I sold. There are similar bastages with your stuff.
