    morning :)

    had a good night sleep (me and K). only up once for soother and then bottle at 5.30am so much better.

    we're having toast at the moment but K has now decided to throw his on the floor. but he has had a little bit of it which is the main thing.

    MFD - sounds like an eventful night ;) hope you are feeling better soon

    Thanks for replies yesterday, sorry, I've developed a habit of writing a post then disappearing off for the day!

    Weezl...you could stretch the pushchair theory to dressing the little men in dresses, or you could just make them a little sister :p Reminds me though, I used to know a couple who actively encouraged their son to wear dresses (as opposed to him asking for them) and would buy him fairy and princess outfits, which was fine til he got to 7 and then it was just a touch strange when he went out in dresses :o

    & you've confirmed that I need to get back to them gym, I'm seriously hating the way I look at the moment, and I've got...12 weeks exactly til we get married :eek: I'm putting off dress buying til the last minute in the hope of buying a small dress not a big fat one to cover my gut!

    Becles, sounds like you had a horrendous time when you were pregnant. The boot camp sounds good - will they give you info on eating etc or is it an exercise thing? Either way you should give it a go, you've nothing to lose (get it?:D)

    Mel glad you had a nice hol & :T for Kai, clever boy!

    Pink Princess, I would so go and view the house!

    Tia might the AF type pains be from straining/being stuck to the loo?!

    Kindof don't be so silly you're a fantastic mum, you seem to have a much harder time of it in the days, as you're on your own with him (I think?) where I thankfully have managed to leave him with my mum and dad a few times in the day for a break, so it's no different :cool: I just daredn't leave him overnight yet, I would feel sorry for the poor soul who'd offered :rotfl:

    Som T's sleeping is fantastic :T can you send her up here to teach Guy how to do it please? :D

    Thanks for green pushchair suggestions - think I found it, it's the Silver Cross Dazzle, and I want it! Bit shocked at the price tag though, hopefully a kind grandparent might buy it :rotfl: Anyone had one with any opinions on it?

    All's good here - had to go back to the docs yesterday with a water infection I've had forever, none of the antibiotics seem to be working. Nevermind, gives me another excuse to put off dtd for a bit longer :rotfl: Just about to get up and ready for the day and take the little monster for some quality time with my parents, and also have a chat with them about the wedding. Bit of a rock & a hard place situation at the moment, we were planning to get wed on our lonesome at Gretna, but OHs dad kicked up a fuss about it so he and step mum are now coming, so I asked my parents, and my sis (she's only 10 so can't be left behind) so had to ask bro too of course, so OH now has to ask his bro & sis, and respective partners & kids, which will extend to his step bro & sis, partners and kids...and basically, it gets out of hand and becomes exactly what we never wanted :cool: Sooooo...what to do?!

    SM wanted to say days ago but forgot, then just been reminded when I spotted you...try not to lose heart with the job hunt :A & also to say that happiness is more important than a job with loads of money, so try not to lose sight of that (not saying you are, just think that a lot of people do, me included) & know that you'll never get back the precious baby time with your littlies :o

    Had to google that then SS, funny!!

    Hope your day picks up...

    Gym, I nearly had the Dazzle, I did wonder if it was that one when I saw your post yesterday... Just be warned, all the accessories are handwash only... ;)

    I've lost some weight off my top half. I bought some new bras a few months ago, but the cups are too big now and the straps keep slipping off my shoulders :o I really wanted to lose it off my bum, hips and thighs though.

    That's my problem. If I loose weight, it goes from my boobies first and I quite fancy keeping them. :o

    After J & L I did WW propertly, and got down to a loose size 10. But, I think my tummy looked worse. It looked ok dressed, but in real life the spare skin looked crinkly - it looks a bit better filled out a bit!

    I was going to as why, but I won't if it'll start World War 10. :o


    Glam If the IL's are here on 7th May, isn't that a good reason to come to the sling meet? :p

    Searchie Good to see you back. It's been too quiet without you. Did you have a good time?, were you getting your hair done while you were away?, how is it?

    OMG - I wish that was my problem!! I never lose weight from my boobs. But they get bigger every time I put weight on! It's awful. :(

    I'll see how much they are doing my head in! Although OH mentioned going to the races on the 5th AND the 7th :eek: We always go on the 5th but as BIL and all the lads are goin on the 7th OH thinks it will be fun to go then as well! He's paying! :beer:

    Jack's trick of the morning has been to be on all 4's rocking back & for and then
    rocking up to a sitting position :eek: I found this out after leaving him on all 4's while I nipped to the loo and came back on the landing and he was sitting up! I did wonder if I was going crazy for a minute but he's been doing it every since. :D

    Think it might be worth putting the stairgates up soon as well as he's very mobile on the slidy floor!

    Where does the time go? :think:
