    Thank you Weezl (and Mr Weezl in advance!)

    MFD How many teeth is Benjamin up to now? We're still on 4, although I can see white lumps further back ready to poke through.

    Be back later, I've just realised I'm meant to be at Rhyme Time shortly and I still have wet hair!

    MFD - I haven't noticed her checking them with her tongue yet, a couple of time's she's moved her tongue whilst mid feed to try them against me though. Luckily not too hard yet, just a gentle push with them.

    Morning all - sorry again, I haven't been on all weekend.

    Hubby arrange a surprise night away to York to celebrate our anniversary - yesterday we had been married 4 years and together for 10 :love:

    And talk about last minute decision - I'm coming to the meet. I've booked tomorrow off work after Hubby had told me I wasn't allowed to keep messing Mum about. He actually thought if I had Wednesday of I would have to work on Monday and mess up all his plans :rotfl:

    I've read back a couple of pages and noticed extreme early morning wake up (I sympathise, Liam has gone back to 6am mornings) tattos and Isla's new teeth :D

    And because I wasn't around yesterday Happy Birthday Rhys - although I did sent some wishes via facebook too! and I work isn't too bad for Elle :)

    MFD How many teeth is Benjamin up to now? We're still on 4, although I can see white lumps further back ready to poke through.

    It is either 7 or 8 :o He honestly doesn't stay still long enough for me to check!! He has 4 at the top and 3 (or 4 - he won't let me check if the 4th has actually broken through or not) at the bottom. I can see some big lumps and white patches further back on the bottom too.

    His bottom 2 are very close and look like they will cross over :( His top 2 currently look like they are quite wide apart. One thing that I wish for my baby is for him to have good teeth and so far it doesn't look good.
    I take comfort in the fact that the PW was very pleased about DSS having perfect baby teeth but his adult teeth need sorting badly - he will be getting a brace as soon as he can. So you never know - perfect baby teeth doesn't always lead to good adult teeth.
    I guess as long as they get them sorted whilst they are young they will be okay by the time they are adults.

    MFD - I haven't noticed her checking them with her tongue yet, a couple of time's she's moved her tongue whilst mid feed to try them against me though. Luckily not too hard yet, just a gentle push with them.

    With bottom teeth she isn't feeding if you can feel them (if this makes any sense) her tongue needs to be over them to feed. I am assuming you know what to do if she bites down? Calmly remove and don't make a fuss - shouting out would make it a game :eek:

    Know that feeling KOAG... OH is always doing that when I get up to feed WG...

    TC's - thats one advantage I have as we have to call a special tel no as OH had a pension with Standard Life and so we go through to a seperate department...

    BTW - Fairies posted teats yesterday sorry for the delay... forgot to weigh it though but put 2 large 1st stamps on so hope thats enough postage.:D

    Ah thats cool lol, I dont think its fair there is a 3 month claim cut off when their phones are so bloody busy lol

    I work in State Pension and every christmas we of course are really busy cos all the pensioners ring up about their winter fuel, well when that happesn the clerical teams go on the phones, you would think the HMRC would do the same (maybe they do lol maybe its just busier than the pesnion line, I dunno lol)

    Aww thank you :)

    I think E is teething, he keeps chewing on his hands, or my finger if I put it in there and dribbling like mad, I've ordered some teethers that are like dummies but that go on the gum, cos the teethers that I have wont fit in his mouth lol, I can see a white thing coming through his gum on the bottom at the front, but not the very front if that makes sense?

    what should E wear when I take him out I am still confused about how many layers E needs to wear, Ive just put the washing out and its quite hot out, I plan on just wearing a vest top when I take him out but will tkae my hoodie in case the weather changes, E currently is dresed in a vest, a tshirt, jeans and socks and scratch mittens (he's gonna pull his eye out if not lol) I was going to put a wooly hoodie on him, is it too hot for that?? I just didnt know if it was ok for him to have a short sleeve tshirt on only (with his vest underneath)
