    Elle, in our area it's very organised... It's a lot of NHS work with support from the Breast Feeding Network...

    GISI, I can have an ask if there are any BfN training courses starting in Southampton if you like? Will be tomorrow though...

    Off to watch True Blood S3 E3 in bed... Quite possibly nekkid... Although I'll keep my sea bands on if nobody minds...

    Night all :)

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Silly moo, has nobody ever told her lots of babies never crawl! :p

    Aye, tried that one... that's when I got the "Rhys should be trained to crawl" line :cool:

    At least I know once she's over this bit and he can do the crawling, the pulling himself up / standing / walking holding hands bit will be smooth sailing - since he's been doing it since January! :p

    It was a fab day thanks fitz :D He was very confused as to why everyone kept picking him up and kissing him and then trying to force him to rip paper when he gets told off for doing that very thing on a daily basis when the post arrives :p
    He was a naughty baby and ate LOTS of cake lol and fell sound asleep after 7 hours of non stop laughing and generally having fun ... so all good :D

    Oooh, when on Thurs and baby or no baby? My Mum has the children in the afternoon but I'm freeeee! :D

    Ooh, yipeee!

    Not sure about children (see below), but MIL has said she could have V on the Thursday as i've taken her off her for the Wednesday. If Erin is here, I'll bring V., if not, we can be 'ladies what lunch!'.

    3 can i ask a huge favour! if i was to give you petrol money would you take me to the train station after shopping? and also what train station would it be so i can organise return train! x

    Of course I would, I was planning to anyway! But if we're shopping in Liverpool, i'd have probably got the train over, and we'd go home from the same station.

    Have you got definate plans/train journeys yet?

    3, did the social worker turn up? Will give MM a nudge and let her know you were asking after her ;)

    No he didn't - I have decided he's an absolute totally useless knoob!
    I phoned his office who were very helpful. 'He's not in until next Tuesday and we don't have access to his diary'.
    I'm incredibly p'd off with him.
    As i've said, i've had more help off other people while he's been on holiday than i've ever had off him in 5+ years! And the few mums i've met from school who question me having no help have asked who my SW is, when I say G, they give me 'oh dear!' and sympathetic looks.
    I'm thinking right now to phone SS tomorrow to tell them I want a 'proper' social worker.
    I have an appointment at J's school tomorrow with his consultant - a new one we've not met yet.
    The latest problem (other than banging/kicking), is that he's not eaten or drank anything in school for weeks. His teacher is saying now it has turned into some kind of power game and J is finding it funny that everyone is trying so hard to get him to at least drink.

    Rant over - Elle, you're now sorry you asked! :D

    Now i'm off to carry on catching up.......

    ETA: before I catch up and forget, i'm absolutely disgusted that Beenies HO swore in front of the children! That is so unprofessional. In my (old) job, I often had the urge to tell people what I thought of them, but it was an instantly sackable offence!
