    Massive hugs to Glam and Jack. That sounds mega-scary.

    I hope Katie's eyes are better soon too.

    Another rubbish night here. H woke up at 11:40 and just refused to go back to sleep. He was happy but not sleepy so an hour later I let him come into our bed where he slept till 6. I actually wonder if he was too cold in his room as he had no vest under his sleepsuit and I think last night was pretty cold as there is ice on the cars this morning. Will wrap him up better tonight.

    Off for a long walk today with some other mummies.

    I'm up for a Hampshire meet up- Portsmouth is good for me, or I'm happy to do Basingstoke again so that Aless can join us.
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p

    KOAG i know you have advice coming out of your ears lol! but i have been thinking, does E guzzle his milk when being fed? can you stop him at every ounce to wind him as i remember being told with Abi that it eas easier to get the wind up and less painful than it coming out the other end? I would also advise you to get an app with the GP as there could possibly be a problem with the milk and his body digesting it? Abi was also a big baby and we had various problems with wind and reflux, i did find winding her regular to help and yes it is a lot of faffing but if it helps in the long run its worth every min! Another thought is if he does guzzle to feed him slightly earlier than his normal feeding time so he is not at the starving hungry point (i hope you understand this ramble!)

    Did anyone who use Engage Child Trust Fund set up a DD for the Boots vouchers?

    If so have you cancelled the DD?? I only set it up for the vouchers and wondered when they sent them out. I'm assuming i should wait til i get them before cancelling the DD? Don't want to make another payment though,

    Edit: Stupid thing posted before I was ready. GRRR.

    That's crap Natalie, but I'm glad you're feeling a bit positive about it. I hope A gets better soon.

    Also, did you hear Johnny Depp got mugged in LA? Some guy threatened him with a broken bottle, and when he realised it was Mr Depp he said, I'm not stealing from Captain Jack! Where it gets excellent is that he gave the guy some money anyway and told him to sort his life out. *loves*

    Edit again: it gets even better, Johnny (I can call him that, we're like best mates, us) wasn't the original muggee - he stepped in when he saw a musician from Pirates of the Caribbean getting mugged!

    Aww Glam poor Jack! Is he ok this morning? Has he got a nice bump/bruise?

    :mad: and hugs for sticky eyes, redundancy, mummys stuck because of ash clouds!, and poorly mummys and babys.

    :j for new beds!

    We spent yesterday trying to sort out the garden. V looked very pretty in a white dress for about half an hour, then was covered in grass stains! It's soaking in vanish now. :(

    I need to go around and put all my blinds back up on the new windows, but I don't really trust myself with a drill!

    Had a pants night sleep but not cos of T, had the worst indegestion ever and felt so rough, was awake for hours in the end had to prop myself up with loads of pillow cos was just too uncomfy lying down. Its gone now tho thankgod!

    Aww SS have fun sorting out your new bed x

    Jillie - bummer about the airport closures.

    Glam - hope Jack is ok this morning.

    Kindof - hope physio goes ok today. Majority of matresses for travel cots are the same but there are the odd ones that are smaller or longer so def measure before buying one.

    beenie - am waiting for T to knock one of my drinks over me, its one of the reasons i wont drink hot drinks while she's feeding.

    MDW - hope katies eye is gunk free soon.

    Does anyone here have the gro anywhere blackout blind? Am thinking of getting one as our blackout curtains dont fit our windows as well as they should and this way can take to my mums as my room their has very thin lilac blind at the window so always bright in there.

    Off to meet DK for coffee this afternoon so need to get my butt in gear, the sun is out so hopefully will stay that way or we'll be getting wet later!
