Has anyone seen the baby gate or bouncer half price? Trafford had loads but all still full price. wonder if it's worth trying again tomorrow? They had 2 different babygates

It probably doesn't help, but the Asda in Peterborough has both gates at halfprice (£7.50). I bought one (I'm over here visiting) and I'm sorry that I don't have room to buy more to bring you some back!

They didn't have any nappies in the sizes I wanted (3 and/or 4) at all, only size 6.

Ooh, it's turned into the nappy bargain thread!

I just got three boxes of size 5 Pampers in Southampton. I also got some cartons of ready made SMA for when I am back at work. They were £2.50 for 12 cartons and as they'll only be used every now and then I figured it would be easier than buying a tub. I also got some Ella's Kitchen pouches for 35p each, and some Plum ones for 50p. Again, useful for when I am at work and someone else is feeding H.

Elle- it is lovely to hear about Rhys having hollow legs. It sounds like he loves his food.

I love all the pictures that have been posted today. We have some seriously cute babies on this thread.

Work was fine- I had a meeting so didn't get home until nearly 7pm. It was so lovely to bath H, feed him and put him to bed and he seemed so pleased to see me. I definitely appreciated him all the more for being away from him all day. I just love him so much, and my heart melted when he looked at me and shouted Mum!

We're good ta

Physio has been today and for the very first time allowed Rhys to do his own thing She's been in denial for months that he's happy on his feet but today, she left him to crawl to the sofa, stand up and cruise along both sofas (and the manage the gap in between) and back again We're seeing her again in two weeks, then seeing the top physio on the 24th to - *fingers crossed* - be signed off completely

How are you all? How's work going? Happy anniversary (for yesterday)

Well done Rhys! He showed the stupid physio.
We're all good, thank you. Work is fine, really busy but it makes the days go very quickly.
Thank you for the anniversary wishes

Bruno - if you order from CanvasRUs, I'd be interested in knowing how you get on, as I'm thinking of getting one done for my dad's 60th later in the year.
Congratulations on team pink!!

MDW - How was Katie's first night in her own room?

Sparkle - hope today has been better than yesterday.

Mookie - :wave: if you're reading. Leila sounds delightful and a very clever girl. You are right to be so proud. Sorry to hear about your job

Leila sounds adorable - should I start being worried that Molly is very verbal but with only a couple of identifiable meaning-sounds?

If so, then I should be worried about Caitlin too.

Mooki, Leila obviously takes after her very intelligent parents... Caitlyn has no words... She still calls the cat Tsss... And if I shout Dave she then wonders round going "Daa" in the same tone... She doesn't say Mummy or Aimee... Or no... She understands a bit though... If she follows me to kitchen at dinner time, I say "go and sit down then" and she toddles off into her chair... She can understand "take this to Daddy" and other things... She's incredibly entertaining

That's pretty much exactly the same as Caitlin.

Maz - if you're about is Boots 6 packs of Pampers wipes for £3.66 the cheapest at the moment? ETA: Just seen MFD's bargains from Asda. Our nearest big Asda is miles away Also, how did you join Pinecone?

MOTM - glad you've got a date for your midwife appointment. Next one will be the first scan!

Boo - Isla is so gorgeous. Is her hairband the one from Primark?

Congratulations Pigpen. Leonie is a lovely name.

Tia - hope Amber has a great day tomorrow. Sorry your holiday was rubbish

Buttons - nice to see you. Good luck for your interview. It sounds like you've got a lot on at the moment.

MFD - wow they do look alike

Redstar - we went on the steamtrain to Minehead a few weeks ago. Cute pics!

MDW how did Katies first night in her room go???

Apologies for late reply - late finish at work, then we were decorating fabric butterflies to go up in Katies room.

It was very good, she wandered into us at about 7.15, just after my alarm went off.

It was the same last night too.

I was very weird being able to put a light on in the bedroom before going to bed.

Awww, Henry sounds super cute! Rhys really wasn't bothered about me coming back at first (was never bothered about me going either, to be fair!) but now I get massive smiles and he comes tearing down the hallway to me

Was today a KIT day? When are you back at work properly?

fattybooboo

What a mega catch-up post choppy

Actually, it is me as a baby - they hadn't invented cameras when hubby was teeny tiny - the M6 was still cobbled then!!

NMS - do you notice whether the door bouncers were half price in Hyde? I might have to take a little trip in the morning lol
