    SM, phew. I haven't been on since last week so I'm outta date too. Glad the counselling went well. Maddy has 6 teeth, 4 in the last 2 weeks but won't drink her milk at the moment so will have to go clinic on Thursday. Wish I was going to the meet.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    Boo-well done on your weight loss! That is an awesome result :T.

    (quickly as need to go feed the little man), boo - do you go to WW meetings or is it the online verison? Between you & GISI's success using diet "programmes" I'm thinking I just need to bite the bullet and join one of them or else I will never ever shift a pound...:o

    I personally need the discipline of being weighed by someone else each week. I've done WW before and lost over two stone. It's definitely a good diet, especially if you cook from scratch a lot.

    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

    Henry has a bottom sheet on his cot, then I have now put a fleecey blanket on top of that so it is a bit more cosy for him when he first goes down. He then has his sleeping bag on, and if it's cold I put a cellular blanket on him when I go to bed.

    Nice to see you back on SM.

    Thanks for the info on the Sainsburys Pampers offer. I have loads of £1 off Pampers vouchers so will use one on each pack and get two packs for £11.50 :T.

    No idea, but she's only had about 50ml today. :( Been a tricky few days here so I don't know if it's rubbed off on her. OH went for his yearly cholesterol test last week and his blood pressure was high so they did an ECG, came back with a couple of problems so more tests.

    Evening all

    Had a busy day today, feeling very tired and i suppose the glorious sun, that I usually worship isn't helping!!

    I am very jealous of you all going to the meet, I have K's MMR Jab in the morning and my MW appt shortly after.

    Love to all xx
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

    Oh bawlls!! I go off to do some work and you lot chatter loads!!


    On my list to bring with me tomorrow is:

    1st Birthday Balloons for SM's Jayden
    Phone lead for Jillie (that I haven't returned yet :o)
    Seahorse for Krystal's Caitlyn
    A gorgeous little tank top from M&S that somebody will want for their baby boy.

    Have I promised anybody else anything else?

    There was something for me but I can't remember what! Photo album maybe :o
    And on all 4 cheeks for Glam :D (because she is wearing knickers and a bra to show off her body-map)



    Aw - you all care more about my hubby than I do!!

    Off home - catch you all later xx

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope Mr MFD is ok.

    Krystal - ooooooooooooooooo do it! dye your hair! I shall be buying dye thursday to do mine.

    Girl in OH's work is 10 weeks pg, due in December right when his contract is due to run out & she only wants to go back 2 days a week so looks promising that they will offer him a permanent contract.

    creche was hell, J cried most of the time he was there (even thou I was with him). Forgot until he wofled his lunch down that he only had 3ozs of milk and a tiny bit of breekie today so the poor lad was probably hungry as well as being tired. Bad Mummy.

    Looking forward to tomorrow. Gonna sort out more clothes when J is in bed so might not be back on later
    A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

    Where does the time go? :think:

    I tried WW and SW and put on weight! lol. After the wedding im going to try slim fast as i dont eat much during the day anyway now so i might as well add a milkshake in.

    And its on offer in boots :):)

    I cant start now as my dress is already to big for me :(


    Baby massage was a success! Lily was well behaved and let me massage her, then she was showing off her tummy time/ head lifting skills to the HV's lol.
    It was the longest she has ever laid on her tummy for, usually after about 3 mins she gives up and lays her head down. But i think she likes praise and attention hehe.

    And i found they do a mum and baby group Friday morning, so im dragging my pregnant friend along so i dont have to go alone. I said she can share my baby until July :)

    We got OHs wedding suit but the trousers are too small and the jacket is too big. So back to burton we go tomorrow :(

    Cant believe im getting married in 17 days! It seems so unreal, im so young still! :rotfl:

    Not really! :( His Dad had his 1st heart attack when he was 2 years older than OH, then a triple bypass a couple of years later. More tests Thursday then docs again for results next week! He's fit, doesn't drink or smoke, eats well so we weren't expecting it.

    EA, my dress is too big as well, went saturday so having quite a lot chopped off it! :eek:
