    A bit of rain wouldnt have hurt him anyway ;) I cant wait for Seth to be old enough to put on some wellies and go splashing in puddles! An excuse to be childish again! I am loving being able to play with him now he is older, rather than just dangle a toy at him for him to chew.
    Does Benjamin understand when you say no? Seth definitely does, and stopped what he was doing straight away up until a couple of weeks ago, but now has realised he can just carry on and pull a insolent face at me!! Such a monster :rotfl:

    AF, if you look on the WW website they have packs you can order with the books and the calculator, you have to ring up and do it but its still cheaper and easier than doing it online or going to meetings :) thats what I've done anyway xx

    Here it is - I ordered the deluxe essentials pack, and it had everything I needed.

    One of my mummy friends was shouting about wearing her skinny jeans today and commented, It's cause I finished BFing, [SS] you'll lose yours when you stop too! Cheeky b!tch! I'm about ten pounds heavier than before I got pregnant, and I'd rather spend my free time with my gorgeous girl than eating salad and doing situps. I'd love a bikini body - but you can put a muffin top in a bikini and a baby is the perfect explanatory accessory.
    :eek: what an absolute cow!!!!!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    No probs hun! I've tried so many different diets over the years, but WW is the only one I can do long term. Its fairly easy to do while still trying to cater for OH's strictly non-diet-friendly tastes too *rolleyes*

    em - must say i agree. i also think it suits the way i 'eat' too if that makes any sense.

    just get the b'day out of the way and take it from there.

    mfd if you find a solution to not using the word 'no' then, i'll be all ears. i am sick of hearing myself saying it so surely LO is sick of it too.

    I worked with an autistic girl and she freaked if you said no so I had to find alternatives ways of saying no, it ain't easy.

    did you try... 'later' or 'maybe some other time' ?

    it is never easy with a child/young person/adult on the spectrum..... but it all starts with the parents....
    Use your judgement, and above all, be honest with yourself. :)
