I've seen the cashback and it's very tempting. I don't really need to buy their food, do i, as i can just calc the pts for the stuff i cook, right?

    SM - cous cous is fine, Isla will be having some tonight with her moroccan lamb stew!

    We've started weaning now, until this week she'd only had one bowl of baby porridge. Everything else had been raw fingers of veg she couldn't actually eat, just gum and the occasional baby rice cake. So far weetabix with warm milk are a big hit :rotfl: And toast fingers.

    Koag - did you get a sling? I put Isla in one during the service and there wasn't a peep from her and it meant if there was I could stand up and sneak to the back with her.

    Aless - I don't buy any WW stuff. We very rarely eat anything that isn't cooked from scratch so I just point whatever's going in there. There are two plans, the points one and what used to be 'core' plan where basically you have a list of foods, cook your breakfast, lunch and dinner from this list and eat until your comfortably full at each meal then anything inbetween meal times is pointed. I'm not sure what that one's called now though.

    Quick question and aplogies for asking what you may think is a stupid question but, here goes!

    Our baby has been sleeping in a moses basket in our room since day one but is now getting too big for it and so we're going to be moving him into his own room in a cot. Here's the stupid question...how do you make a bed for a baby? What do you actually do? He has been sleeping in those grow bags but I would like him to have bedding. How do I go about this and does anyone have a picture of their bubba so I have a better idea?
    Many thanks and once again, sorry for being so stupid!
    Thanks
