When did your babies see a dentist?
I signed Lily up and they said that they wont see her until she's 2 years old, but my blue book says 6mo :S

We've always taken Alice with us - first time was about nine months but he didn't actually try to look in her mouth until after she was two.

Don't feel bad on my account -I've only been twice!!

SJ does not overstay her welcome, bearing in mind her skill with cakes she is lucky that I let her leave, indeed Millie is dying to meet the 'cake lady and 'baby' Alfie'.

As I have previously posted on FB following one of my MIL's 'visits' 4 hours is a tenancy not a visit.

Thanks :cool: I am looking forward to meeting Millie too

And :rotfl: @ tenancy!

Did anyone watch the Extraordinary Breastfeeding show the other night? I'm just watching now, it says the average weaning age around the world is 4. Very interesting.

Mel it's this book, I spotted it in the library when we were doing Bounce & Rhyme on Tuesday. I managed to read through it at breakneck speed so we're giving it a whirl. Her sleeping hadn't been too bad but then we had a week or so of her not wanting to go to bed at all and I need to break the feed to sleep association for her really. In the night once she's asleep she thinks boob is the only thing that helps her get back asleep if she wakes which is my fault for always just giving it I suppose but this has lots of gentle ideas for working through changing sleep plans.

We only moved her out of the crib yesterday to her big cot as well, she looks lost in it!

I put Sophie giraffe in my mouth when we first got it and heaved at the taste, it's horrible! How she can turn her nose up at my lovely cooking when she happily chews on that I don't know :rotfl:

I sniffed a sophie at baby class once, didn't smell good. But i dont know where it has been so didn't want it in my mouth.

Lily just stared at it in a state of shock :rotfl:

Last time I went to the Dentist he tried to get her to show him her teeth, but she wasn't having any of it. I think at that age it is just to get them used to it iyswim. He said to bring her toothbrush next time, so she knows to open her mouth.

She does find it funny seeing someone else put their fingers in my mouth though - normally that is her job

haha Millie's Mum...she even brought lunch, I thought she was going to pull out a picnic rug an all sorts. and tbh if i wasn't going out for the school run she probably would have still been there another 4hrs later!!!

Thanks SJ

Boogelly Thanks for the link, I think I will see if our library has that book as I really need to do something for in the nite wake ups too. T just gets sooooo upset if I don't feed him. I don't mind trying CC but I just know I am rubbish at giving in when he cries xx

Gonna look through all our photos and see if I can come up with something nice. Really need to work out something to get him from me, I though a helicopter flight would be fun but I'm not sure it'd be all that picturesque over Leeds Then I thought maybe 30 little presents...but could only think of like 2 things, so that plan was scuppered!

When I was 21 my boss bought me 21 scratch cards for my birthday...I won a fair bit (can't remember how much now)

When Hubby turned 40 I bought him 40 scratch cards and he didn't win a penny :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

The only way I can get my fingers in Benjamin's mouth is when he is wantonly (?) biting me!!


Not sure if I should post this or not but...

When I picked Benjamin up today the CM said 'Benjamin do you want a wee-wee' and he went and sat on the potty :T:T

He had his trousers on but at least the language is starting to sink in.

We have been sitting him on the potty at home for 5 or 6 weeks now, just for a bit of nappy off time in the evening. We are not expecting him to do anything yet, just getting him used to the idea.

She brought lunch????? I'm sorry but who takes a packed lunch when they go to visit a friend who has just had a baby?

Weird, Run Mel Run, next time you see her coming Run!!
