    just a thought 3...
    Keith Duffy's daughter has autism and he has spoken a lot about how hard it is etc for parents and childrenin getting the right education, help and support. i'm not sure exactly how to get hold of him or but would it be worth a try?
    i mean, obvioulsy he cant help what has happened but it might help you to resolve things with the camp...


    if you get what i mean...sorry typing/thinking today is a bit shoite

    I would agree with this. He played football recently with my colleague's son's football team. Her son is the manager and may have some sory of contact details, I'm not sure how it was all arranged. If you are interested let me know and I can try and find out. They said he was a lovely man

    Alfie looks like a ragamufin baby today. He's in a 3-6 outfit but it's miles too big for him, and also now covered in drool and sick :(

    :eek:Thomas is wearing 3 to 6 months now and they fit perfectly. I need to try and get him weighed this week - think I may be shocked when I do lol

    They should have plenty of stock but I seriously HATED that highchair and its now in the loft replaced with the Antilop from Ikea.....

    I was about to say the same! We have that highchair at my Grandparents and it is still really hard for Henry to sit up in, and he is 8 months old and circa 22lb now! It's too laid back for them to sit properly in. If you have an Ikea anywhere near you then get an Antilop- they are just awesome!

    Yep! Thats what I didn't like about it, the ergonomics (if that is indeed the right word!) just felt all wrong.

    hes a really long baby. we measured him from head to toe and he's 54cm!

    I have one of those too, he's really tall and skinny. He was 8lb 3oz at birth and 24 inches (57.5cm) which is the 50th centile for weight and 99.6th centile(!) for length. Not taken his length since actually, might be a task for when he calms down tonight (currently screaming his head off with his dad!) but he's 9lb 8.5oz now so I'm guessing he got longer as well as heavier.

    Landen is lovely by the way :)

    Jenny - I think a lot of people drop off when they go back to work. Unless like me you have a job where you are computer based with unmonitored internet access :D

    I post because I'm self employed so I've got no colleagues. I treat having a chat on here like a virtual natter round the office water cooler :D
    good news for me .. i reversed in to a road with no problems or restarting for the first time ... i refused to let my doubts win :D ...

    Yay - well done :j

    Just booked tickets for Sunderland v Birmingham on the 14th Aug. Can't wait for the footy season to start. Haway the lads!
    Here I go again on my own....

    So sorry 3 that is horrible :(

    EA YAY for Lily liking carrot, can you walk me through your day with L? like when do you give her bottles and when does she get food?

    Cos E has a bottle when he gets up, then plays for two hours, then sleeps for 90 mins - 2 hours, and repeat so I cant think when to feed him food

    I didn't see this, i had to go back and find it :rotfl:

    Its pretty do much this -
    7:30am - 7oz bottle
    11am - 7oz bottle & 1 cube of puree after the bottle
    2:30/3pm - 7oz bottle
    6pm - 7oz bottle & 1 cube of puree after bottle
    10pm - 7oz bottle (sometimes)

    I forgot to give her the puree at 6pm today as we were eating, so she'll prob habe her 10pm bottle.

    !!!!!! the guy has given me a white phone and I have opened it! I didn't know it was a white one, the display one was black. And I don't know if I can take it back now the seal is open :mad:

    Usually you can take a phone back as long as you dont make any calls on it. Your allowed to take it out of the box to have a look, and also allowed to turn it on to see the features.
