    Just popping on briefly, whilst emailing some pics of today off to the family who couldn't make it due to Volcanic Ash to say the christening went off well. Only mini disaster was that when we all returned from church the oven had failed to come on, so my carefully laid plans on the food front went a bit awry. Thank goodness for microwaves though, and I did manage to get it all up to the right temperature and on the table only about 15 minutes later than planned.

    Due to said ash, however, we have a mountain of left overs! Anyone fancy some stew, chilli or morrocan chicken :rotfl:

    Caz, don't list any more than 100 items or ebay change your account to business and you have to pay for 99p listings.

    Krystal they have moved the time of the MMR's back, it used to be 15 months, now it's 13? All to do with the Autism scare. Personally, as I'm not concerned about Autism, I'm going to put it back off till 15 months as the mumps vaccine is processed better at that age by the body. I'm sure someone else can find all the literature about it, I can't bookmark anything on firefox.

    Its OK to list as much as you want until 2nd June and from reading the article I can't see that it says they will change it to Business if ypu list more than 100. Just that item number 101 onwards will cost 10p to insert with a 99p start price.

    WM - love the Oopsie! Bit pricy though :eek: But whats the price on bumped heads? :o

    Jack has cut his knee :( He crawled over a piece of plastic which must have fallen off the packaging for his new toy.

    Had another poopslopion requiring a shower _pale_ its cos he keeps pooping when he's in the jumperoo or walker

    What a stunning picture, Nicki. Your DD's dress is beautiful.

    Kindof- I can't help on the ounces but I found H wanted feeding more often rather than larger amounts. Between about 6-19 weeks he fed every two hours throughout the day and this has only changed since he started on solids.

    my friends LO was a gannet but never went above 8ozs. I don't think you can get bigger bottles and tbh if a baby wanted more than 9ozs then it might be weaning time (but I didn't say that :silenced: :whistle::shhh:)

    Glad Mrs B is doing well Bruno, hope the bloods and scan go well.

    I have a house full of sand and a pile of washing as we have brought a sand pit and inspite of me wanting play sand (dry and white and brushes off) OH was MSE and used some of the sand (damp and yellow and does not brush off!)

    Hugs and yays for those that need / would like!

    I don't really know, but I think generally, he would most likely be (needing) weaning by the time he was draining 9oz.....His milk consumption would drop then:)
