MSE Parents Club Part 12

SugarSpun

Thanks ladies, I'm really pleased with them

Meeting in half an hour, and I've just had a very annoying trip to the baby-stuff-shop. The escalators on both underground stations were out so I had to hike down then up with GigantoBaby in the sling, and then up two flights of stairs in the shop because their lift was being used for stock. Then they only had one baby gate, and it was €72 :eek:, made of fabric and held on by suction cups (seriously, Molly would walk right through that) and only good for doors up to 92cm, but we live in an old building and our doors are made for crinolines and 94cm.

Meeting now and then I shall look up the baby shop outside of town and see if I can get there before it closes.

Happy Birthday Cameron & SJ!!
Well remembered WM!

Well done Alex!!

Yes, so not like me to remember anything. Well not these days anyway.

Can confirm that Natalie85 is not a builder named Dave and her baby Amelie is lovely and happy and pleasant. Had a nice couple of hours until Joe decided to strop and sulk.

Don't know where he gets it from :whistle:. Warning - Strop from me below.
I am officially a cricket widdow. Abandoned on both Saturday and Sunday. And nearly had a breakdown on Sunday afternoon, when he told me he was going playing again, as i've had a headache for days, and no sleep for three nights, whilst he has been reliving his youth, coming in at silly o'clock in the morning, stinking the room out with stale ale smell and leaving me to it all. :mad:. But of course i'm unreasonable. Told him there was no way I was getting up last night (well yelled it), so he did. But i was awake through it all, listening on the monitor. Hour and half wake up in middle of night. Then wide awake at 6am. So Alex is officially a "nightmare". Yes I bloody know that, because I have been dealing with it on my own for months.

And today he's at a funeral. So that means he will be p1ssed again. !!!!!!.

So to cheer myself up, after a visit to buy the ever growing Alex, some T-shirts in Asda, I took myself to Next and may have bought this top. Can't afford it, but i don't do comfort eating, i do shopping!!:D

Oh yes, lovely photo of the beautiful Molly. And a gorgeous one of Elliot I spotted before.

DD's school (grammar) has a policy of min 20" below the waistband. However, before/ after school a lot of the pupils roll their skirts up as short as poss. There were 2 at the busstop this morning with them rolled up high enough that you could see the panels at the top of their tights - which looked very amusing! Possibly somethingt o do with them sharing a bus with the local boys' grammar.

At school, though, the teachers do enforce the rule - and skirts are duly rolled down to a 'normal' length.

No, here even the primary school girls have their skirts showing their knickers. Which I think is so wrong!:eek:

I waited till secondary to show my knickers We had a lovely uniform, black skirt, white shirt, black blazer with red piping. Twas sexy (and blazer pockets were a perfect size for 10 fags and a lighter).

I pray that things uniform-wise changer here by the time the kids are at high school though the 2 that will probably be chosen between have hideous uniforms! one is manky brown and the other is blue - ok for boys but if we get #3 and they're a girl they wear ankle length pleated skirts _pale_ vile!!

Oh - I like it when they wear the long pleated skirts...I used to wear one for school.

...b00ger to iron though :cool:

Weezl, thanks for that info. I've saved in it a word document for when i forget what its says later on
I didn't know any of that, except the bit about there being a chance of a prem birth.

Fitz & Aless, i have spoke to my HV. She said to try Lily with water in between the bottles to make her go further. She said babies can have cooled boiled water from any age.
And to try the hungry baby if i feel she needs it.

She isn't finishing her bottle so im not going to up the ozs, she has 6 and only drinks 5

Im going to give her one bottle of hungry baby for her last feed as she's waking sooner in the night and then being ratty in the morning as she's awake when she usually isn't and isn't going down for naps as well.

Lilyis wearing an outfit that fits upto 9lbs and she's 11lbs
I feel like i do when i fit in a size 12

SS, saw Mollys pics on fb. She is beautiful
I love the mirror one!

Help someone, doing my nut. I am no good with word documents. I need to make a note to put into my invite envelopes, I want to get 2 on one A4 piece so landscape, side by side, but I can't copy and paste as it mucks up my typing, maybe, perhaps I could email to one of you clever birds and you could send it back, cheeky I know! :A:rotfl:

Tara, I can try if you like.
