MSE Parents Club Part 12

Lol my crib has never been used either it's used as a posh laundry basket at the moment :rotfl: I tried her in it once but she got her leg and arm stuck in the bars within about an hour so i stuck with the moses basket, which is now also a glorified laundry basket!!

It must be a baby full moon cos Amber used to go down really easy after a bottle (of formula, grr) and stay there all night but i've been up and down the last few nights. She has got a cold though so it could be her snottyness bothering her.

The whole Joolz business is so confusing. Some go for a low price, some go ridiculously high, so i have NO idea what's a good price and what's not?!!? All i know is i'd rather not have to add to the £133 already in Paypal but i'm totally getting sold to all the accessories that come with the £185 one. But on the downside i'd have to wait til after next week to arrange a courier cos she's away.

Isla's just been up too, 5 minutes of boob and she's conked out again. Hopefully it might mean she won't have an early morning feed but who knows?!

Oh, and she'll now feed from both sides without the shields but I'm in agony! It's like having a newborn again as they never 'toughened up' properly because she had to feed through the shields I can't find my tube of lansinoh anywhere and I'm loathe to pay a tenner for another one.

One stokke sellers emailed me back, I might need to be nice to OH and see if I can buy it. He's sooo gonna kill me

BeenieCat

Boo i think i have some sachets of Lansinoh if you need them, i'll have a hunt in the morning and post them on, i'll PM you when/if (:o) i find them.

I'm gonna go to bed and have a lruk on my phone round the forums i think, stops me analysing all the different Joolz listings on ebay. I so need a new hobby

That'd be lovely if you have, thank you.

I think I'd better head to bed soon, OH wants to go on a walk tomorrow. If I manage to butter him up and get the stokke I'll let you know about my Joolz

if it's a full moon keeping babbas awake, then it's one hell of a full moon lasting several weeks for us! And now it's starting to affect his day naps too, so i am slowly going mad. It's seriously like we're back to 2 weeks old again. I really hope it IS teeth, b'c if it's not then i wouldn't have the first clue on where to start fixing.

Sj, good point about feeding for comfort. He's started doing the arched back, baby bird impression sometimes as little as an hr after feeding, so i know he's not hungry. Last night i gave up and brought him into bed at 4, which i never do, as he seemed convinced he was starving after eating at 2. Unfortunately, despite paracetamol, we seem to be heading the same direction tonigh.

See I do want a bit of traditional sitting down at pretty tables with close friends and family, I just CBA with a big formal meal, and the hotel said we had to pay extra if we wanted the meal served to the tables cos they wanted to servie it as a buffet which I couldnt see working? How am I meant to fill my plate with food when I have a big dress on? Which is why I thought a nice afternoon tea type thing might work instead! And it should be cheaper too. Just need to find a venue that will let us do it, we were going with the Holiday Inn but they wont let us have a BBQ. Barstards!

Somebody else should do it for you.

Ladies am after some recomendations the first for a good baby massage oil as we start our first class on Thursday. The second for baby leg warmers, T is sleeping in her sleeping bag and a long sleeve vest and I thought they would be cute for when she comes out of the bag and to wear with dresses, plus they'll be handy when she gets around to crawling.

We used Babylegs. We got them from a website which had them on offer at the time (and this was almost three years ago) but if you google/shopbot you should be able to find the best deal. They definitely do them on Amazon now but I haven't checked their prices.

Em I thought after I had logged off last night - when I used to work in a weddingy hotel we used to get all the tables up one by one for the buffet too. When we got married they didn't, and I got my food at a different time from DH and family (I was starving and they were all too busy gassing) so I was sat there all by myself eating

What I was thinking was that if they hotel won't get the tables up one at a time for you, maybe you could give the ushers an extra job? I'm sure the hotel wouldn't mind things working that way, even if they don't want to do it themselves.

Oh, and morning all. Sorry about all your rubbish nights. Things have got a bit better here - still a struggle to get her to sleep in the first place, but then she is actually sleeping. I did discover tooth number 8 last night though, so maybe that was the culprit?
