    I'd run it through on a boil with a cap full of bleach in and see if that helps... Apparently you're supposed to do a maintainence wash about once a month anyway...

    Wow kindof - I love that there is a website dedicated to socks :)

    I'm [strike]worrying about[/strike] laughing at all you with 4+ and 5 nappies for little ones no older than Izzy. We tried 4+ last time, but they keep falling down on her - no way we need them yet. Maybe she just has a skinny bum! I really need to go get her weighed - I've tried to get her on the scales, and it doesn't look like she is much heavier than when I went six months ago, but it is hard to tell on normal (and wonky) bathroom scales. I know she is a lot taller, but I'm not convinced she is any heavier. Mind you she never stops moving for a second, so there isn't a chance for a scrap of fat to stick!

    LOL E uses 4+ for bed, the 3's he uses during the day are getting tight, so he def needs the 4's soon

    Ok ive had a 2 hour nap and I feel refreshed

    E's routine with his food is all over the place today hes just had a bottle but I dont think he's hungry enough to have some food, do you think it would be ok to skip his food for a day?

    ETA hes just eaten all his carrot and his pear lol

    Yeah it's fine to skip the food in the early days if they're not hungry :)

    No cheap nappies in our Asda... Bu99er... :(

    Ebayers, I've just had an email to say I'm getting 4x points for all purchases in Baby from the 7th August onwards - check to see if you're getting them too :)

    Uploading more photos to FB at the moment. I found the camera and emptied it in case it gets lost again.

    Oh no CAFC - still, more than £14.50 is too much for a bundle of 54 things so don't worry :)
