    i bought one of the floaty seat things from boots, when we go swimming i usually take it, let her go in it at first to get used to the water, then hold her for a bit, then vice versa, helps my tired arms too haha

    A can usually do about 45 mins before she gets tired and cranky. :)

    We bought a "floaty seat thing" for Andrew partway through our holiday, as he wasn't terribly happy in the pool the first time. He loved the seat, and stayed in the pool for ages just bobbing around.

    Hi , not my usual area of forum but thought somone could help lol

    Bought Pamper EasyUp's for grandson, on the back is a strip of sticky tape, can anyone tell em whats this for? Is it just when nappy used to secure it in a ball before throwing it in bin ?


    I bet this is silly question of the day or even week but have looked on box they came in and does not say anything :rotfl: Only ever had terry nappies in my day adn I find nappies so confusing now lol

    thanks

  • Hi doelani!

    Not a stupid question at all - we have had the same discussions on here.

    We came to the conclusion that it was just for keeping the nappy together when you ball it up.

    :D

    Hi Doelani - yes, we figured you roll the removed pull up from front to back, and the sticky bit pulls off and holds it together in the bin. :D


    OH has got his exams today, three I think. Then he'll find out if he's passed before the end of the day. I'm stressed for him. :(

    I should do something lovely for celebration dinner with a nice bottle of wine seeing as he won't have to revise tonight for the first time in weeks.

    MFD while you're about, have you had an email to say your BB membership is due to end? Did we all join at the sameish time? Will you bother to renew?, I can't decide.

    Hmmm - most of the stuff they seem to get is baby related stuff but I have had something for me and for DSS too...I definitely got my fivers worth...

    I dunno, I guess we could get toys but we already have tons of those - no point if all you are going to get is a potty!!



    Asda were doing some lovely packs of rump steak for £6 the other day. There was enough for hubby and I to have a big piece each and then I put some in the SC with some onions and peas for Benjamin. Steak, homemade wedges, onions, mushrooms and peas - yummy!!
