Benjamin naps in his cot when we are at home. He naps in a travel cot in the spare room at the CM's (now known as 'Benjamin's room' LOL)

It has never been a problem putting him down in the day and him knowing it is naptime.

I assume E has lots of different clues to let him know it is nighttime kindof (bath, bottle, sleepsuit, story or whatever) so they just get the idea that it is for a short sleep.

Koag - Isla naps in the cot or on our bed in the day. I keep the room light and don't put a blanket or any of her 'nighttime' things with her so she realises it's just a daytime nap.

MFD - are you getting the Joolz?

Kindof - I put Freddie in his cot, he doesn't seem to get confused - me, on the other hand, I'm always confused....

Happy Birthday to Elijah and Carlas Christopher.

I don't think so. It has some marks on it which is probably why it was reduced so heavily and if I am correct the seat is separate when it folds which means it would need a bag for the plane so more expense. And I wouldn't take my Stokke on a plane so why would I take a £500 Joolz on a plane...etc etc etc

I had put it out of my mind until you mentioned it

WM - Your lovely fairies arrived this morning, thank you very much:D

Sorry I haven't been around much lately, things are pretty hectic here as K is poorly and is very whiney/clingy so am struggling to keep both LO's settled atm.

I got my mum round to sit for an hour yesterday though and we took the older two swimming, it was fantastic and also made me feel a bit sad as it hit home just how little time we spend with them lately.....She is going to come once a week while they are on holidays so we can take them, it will be for a bit longer next week and we will take them for something to eat afterwards:)

T is now 6wks and 1day old and is finally tolerating her bouncy chair.....as long as she has her dummy and is being constantly bounced!!!! But it means we can get a bit of quiet in the house, she is still not very good at night though. Thankfully my medication seems to be helping and I am starting to get over playing the martyr all the time and feeling guilty or like a failure if I do have to ask dh to take over for a while while I sleep.

10 days till the christening and I am alsmost sorted, I have all our outfits and am just waiting on 3 replies to let me know if they are coming to the dinner afterwards, and if so what they want on their sunday dinner.

Hope everyone is well xx

I think the seat can be left on if it's forward facing, it definately has to come off when parent facing though. My sister tell's me off for mistreating my joolz, it's because I see it as a cheap pram not a good pram I got cheap :rotfl:I dread to think what she'd say about how I treat my £5 nuna!

Isla's having her nap now and I really should tackle some tidying, or wash my hair, or one of a million other things that need doing! But I'm mooching around the net instead

I've just been on fb and an old school friend posts on a group called 'shexii mummysz' Some of the things on it are unbelievable. They ask for advice on preg symptoms or baby stuff then everyone replies. There's one about weaning and people saying 'I started at 5 weeks' or 9 weeks etc :eek:

Someone i know on fb (some of you might guess who im talking about ) said that she was weaned at 6 weeks, and 'she's fine'. Also she was talking (sentences) at 6 months.

Hmm, i should go and get ready to meet DH from work. He's requested to change his hours so he works all weekend and has the week free for us

Means i can do my college course during the day :j

Lily is coming on so much recently! Today she has learnt to open and close her mouth, similar to when you make fish noises.. And she had her fingers in the pincer grasp earlier. She looked like a crab!

Then during playtime on the floor, she pulled her legs underneath her and pushed her bum in the air like she was about to crawl! :eek:
Then she fell back down..

Have to go the the PO today, i got a red card from the postman. I think its the fairys from NMS

Congrats Pigpen on your beautiful baby girl!

Right, i need to blame some of you for something

I have never been a prams person. Now after seeing all of the ones you have linked, i want an Icandy and/or a Joolz.

And i cant, because if we have another baby we will need a double pram! *wails*

Morning all, congratulation PP hope you are all well. x
Happy birthday for those I missed yesterday;) and to Elijah and Christopher for today.

Oscar has naps in his cot during the day, he won't settle properly anywhere else.
Went to meet childminder yesterday, hubby and wife team who seem quite nice. Going for 2hrs next Friday to see how things go. Oh and they pick him up and bring him home:T.
