    Glam - it sounds as tho Jack is doing really well considering he's not even a year old yet! Boys are pretty much always slower than girls too. I'm resigned to the fact that my BM's baby girl (11 wks younger than T) will inevitably end up doing a lot of things 1st lol

    you can get Mothercare to order it online for you. You just pay instore when they order.

    thanks Gill - he was developing lots until he got ill and has even stopped doing things that he did before. No more clapping and he's only just started standing unaided again - something he's not done for 6 weeks but did for a good 2 weeks before that!
    he's been slow on the talking all again - don't know where he gets it from!

    SS -I just wish the chattiness had a few more words in there!

    The longer it takes the less time we'll have to listen to WHYYYYYYYY? and NONONONONO :rotfl: Molly says Mama and Dadad,. boob, a sound (MAAAAAAAAA) that is used for "pay attention to me please, my nappy is full/my mouth is empty", yes, hi and baba (bye bye). Most of those have only become recognisable in the last few days. Loads of time :)

    She still has baldy gums though :o

    Hugs CAFCGirl - you and Glam deserve medals - behaviour like that would not be tolerated chez Hammy !

    I have found that with D too - he was standing unaided before the pox but doesn't do it very often anymore.... not that I am in any hurry for him to walk though as he crawls at a mighty fast pace and cruises the furniture anyway :eek:. He only says Mama much to Mr Hammys annoyance :D

    Tooth No 2 is giving us grief here. I hate teething :o

    I know, I'm just impatient!
    We have the 2 teeth and boy have we had the nappies and screaming that goes with it.

    I know, I suddenly put 2 and 2 together and for once got 4! :j

    And of course, you weren't :kisses3: I just remembered it when you said your name and there was only one person to get it so young. :)
