Happy birthday Maddy and PN's Liam!

We had another midnight feed and through till breakfast here - the trick seems to be the shorter late afternoon nap :j

Of course, we're off on holiday next week and that'll thoroughly ruin our progress *rolleyes*

Have to go to the office today, I have some serious work to get done and can't do it here. And yet here I am feeding the baby in my undies while Husband works. It's very symbiotic, so it is.

Also need some waxing done before we leave.

Bleurghhhh. I am soooooo tired.

I know D is contagious but I am wondering if we are ok to go out so long as no-one gets close to him or touches him? Anyone know?

How is the MS today Krystal? I hope the girls were well behaved last night for you.

It is an infectious disease as it is a respiratory infection too so just spending a significant length of time in the same room gives a high likelyhood of it being passed on to someone who is not already immune. I did read the figures when Alice had it but have forgotten them now. The places we were going were the same as the people who Alice caught it from and the people who could have been pregnant all had children with chicken pox anyway but we did phone up an elderly couple at our church to check whether they'd had it as even a cold can knock them out for weeks. Personally I was only concerned about very young babies, people who could be pregnant and elderly/frail people who would be in the same room as us for a significant period of time.

Morning,

Happy Birthday to Maddy!!

Also Happy Birthday to Jam (I think it's your birthday as I am sure Charlotte is a Sept baby!!)

Glad you are getting a better sleep these days SS. You never really mention it much, so wasn't sure if you were looking for an improvement in Molly's sleeping habits!

Poor Hammy and D. Not sure about going out. Do you want to go anywhere in particular? If it's just out a walk, then I would go to get out of the house.

Happy Birthday Maddy

Hope Jayden's injections go well.

We had another 5am start today...don't know what is going on with him! Hope this isn't going to be the norm. Hoping to crack on and get some jobs done this morning then going for a coffee with my new RL mummy friend.

csh - We have this one...but it is a fix to the wall type, not a compression fit one....Does that matter to you, or are you after compression type???

Better link here

Thanks Mel (and Sami) I have that one on the door and it doesn't fit the stair for some technical reason OH didn't share!
The flexi one is no good cos I can't open it with one hand


Happy Birthday Maddy!

Question: did anyone else's baby go from being really easy to put down in the daytime to quite difficult? Alfie used to go to sleep with no issues in the day if I put him into his pram with carrycot on. Now I try to put him down when he's sleepy and he fusses and cries. He's also got more clingy. I'm wondering if it's an age thing - he's 5 months now - or whether he's somehow got used to being held or played with.

K is always a nightmare going over for a nap when hes teething..... mind you he seems to be constantly teething and may well have the full set by his 1st birthday :rotfl:

They went to bed fine and Caitlyn slept until 6:15... She might have gone longer if hubby wasn't such a tit... But I can live with 6:15... It's better than 4:10!

MS seems to have stepped up a gear the past couple of days... It's not pleasant... The midwife predicted a girl yesterday which kind of goes with my gut feeling so far... Dave's a bit gutted... I keep telling him there's still a 50 50 chance though....

Do you mean go out as in to enclosed places such as shops, libraries and coffee houses... Or out as in a walk around the park / bit of fresh air?

I would do the latter... But leave the former for a few days... He'll be most contagious now and it wouldn't be fair to expose unsuspecting folks to it...

Oh and anyone that has the lindham extendable gate... I have some extra fizings here if anybody wants them? I used to keep 1 gate and had the fixings at the kitchen and bottom of the stairs, it was easy enough to pop the gate off one place and put it in the other... Sadly my gate went in the great bin cupboard fire, but I only removed the kitchen fixings when I put a pressure fit gate up there...

Krystal just while your still here! Was it you that had bought cheap appliances from comet/currys clearance or something like that or am I confused?

My built in oven electrocuted me on Sunday night and now lies dead, so can't afford a new one but running out of cook on the hob ideas already :mad:
