Beenie, I think your list is very clear. Do you have dates for all of these things? I still can't believe she ignored more than one healthcare letter; mine would have maybe been fair enough because, you know, Germany, but your GP?!?!What did I miss?

These are terribly sad stories
When I was pregnant there was a woman on my tram who started making weird hooting noises and then keeled over. I was sitting opposite her at the back end of a very full tram, everyone else stared as I went to alert the driver. He came back and she'd got herself out (we were at a stop) and was lying on the bench outside, so he just drove away. I still hope to see her on it another day looking ok.Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76

Sami - I thought you were suggesting to Krystal that she puts Caitlyn under the sofa to get some more sleep, for a second!!!! :eek:
Thanks for the comments about breakfast. I am sure she is happy enough, but I want her to have more variety.
I keep intending to mix fromage frais with muesli or porridge oats or something, but to be honest, I don't know how many she should have during the day, and she has at least 1, sometimes 2 at other times!
Anyone else got ideas for breakfast? If I can't do quick things now, it will be worse when I go back to work.0 -
Angela - nice to see you back again
hows things with the big kids? (I hope i've remebered that right:o)
Fitzo...I give Rose porridge every morning...her only change is the fruit that i put in in. She sometimes has toast aswell but nothing else x
Sami...they are great. Both has finished school now. They are both going back to college/ school in Sept. Think they are enjoying the summer tho. Becky as found a job with her friends dad. She can choose which days she goes in etc and is paid £68 per day!! Not bad for 16!! Tony is just fleecing me for pennies!!DS Anthony Steven 07.06.92DD Becky Emma 24.01.94DD Rose Grace Jean 12.05.090 -
I've no idea how to help get her back down Krystal but have you tried under the sofa or between the cushions? that where Chris hides our remote
How confusing! I thought you were suggesting that Krystal put Caitlyn under the sofa or between the cushions to get her back to sleep
I take it the seahorse doesn't do the trick then Krystal?
Is it too light? Or is it birds that are waking her? Does her waking time vary according to when you put her down?
Benjamin is usually a 6am baby. Nothing much I can do about it. Although most of the time he talks to himself for at least half an hour before he starts shouting 'Mamma' and banging on the wall for me
He woke at about 11pm last night (which was why I disappeared mid-chat 3
) and it took me a while to get him to settle back down and then I had to wake him at 7.30am!!! Maybe I should poke him awake at 11pm every night :rotfl: please listen to MFD - she is a wise woman

Fitz, Molly has porridge with some sort of pureed fruit or yoghurt every morning. She doesn't seem to mind

I'm having cereal for lunch. I appear to never have recovered from being a student :rotfl:Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76

Me too!!Sami - I thought you were suggesting to Krystal that she puts Caitlyn under the sofa to get some more sleep, for a second!!!! :eek:
THe seahorse works for night wakings if she's happy enough to flop back down... But once she's standing up in her cot whinging, that's it... Try to lay her down and it turns into a full on tantrum... I don't know what it is that wakes her... But I wish it would stop!!My_Fathers_Daughter wrote: »How confusing!

I shall get D to pick up some more fruit pouches on his way back tonight and then I'll know it's not hunger waking her...
I did her cucumber and toast fingers with philadelphia dip... she's eaten the toast, discarded the cucumber... And now eating dip from her finger!A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls...

Elijah is a bit older but his breakfast is usually greek-style yogurt with a fromage frais mixed in, weetabix, porridge, or toast. I feel like that's enough variety honestly, it's as much as I get in my breakfast
