Sparkle - with Katie if she's in I'm not eating mode, I just ignore her and after about 5 minutes she starts eating.

We've just has a major paddy as she didn't want the crips that I put out for her lunch (salt your own so no salt), after about 10 minutes she sat down and ate them. She also just cleared her lunch plate by just leaving it there for her to pick at, took her an hour but it's gone.

I think I gave birth to a small monkey not a baby... She's climbing up on everything... I'm sick of fetching her down off the table! Really starting to get on my wick now...

Bit annoyed with Hubby... After moaning at me last week because we had a quiet week in the house and he thought I should have been taking the girls out... I had 3 seperate activities planned today (including a free cinema trip!) and he's arranged for a courier to come and collect something he's sold on eBay to come any time between 8am and 8pm which kind of ruins it!

Jack climbed on to our bed this morning :eek: He managed to pull the single mattress out a tiny bit from under the bed and used it to push himself up and onto the bed!
Yet another thing to be careful of!

Can I ask some advice please?
Up until recently Freddie has been consistently getting better at sleeping at night (with the odd exceptional night), but for the last three nights he's been dreadful and kept waking up after 2pm, so he's not getting much sleep. I thought it might be down to him having shown signs of teething for a couple of weeks now, but Dan pointed out this morning that it coincides with the time we started introducing baby rice - 3 days ago. Now I'm not sure if it's coincidence or if he's possibly suffering from indigeston. Did anyone else find this happening after they started weaning their baby and if so, how long did it last? And did you persist or stop for a while?
Thanks

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but in my experience with Jack it's still going on at 11 months.

He slept through from 12 weeks until I started weaning him, he's slept through maybe a handful of times since. :cool:

Thanks Sami, I think that's what my gut instinct is telling me too.

thsnks for the links etc. I have never used the backpacks before but as we need to get Charlie tired out at night it has started to be part of what we do and Erin is such a grump and wants carried! Last night Charlie was chasing the sheep and shouting bbaaaaaaaaaaaaa, they stood looking at him like he was mad before running for their lives PMSL!

The sour dough bread looked yummy and i need to start getting back to normality and cook things

Thanks Glam. I was afraid that might be the case. It seems too much of a coincidence not to be linked to the food. I'm sorry that you're still having difficulties.

I think you can get spare fixings, if so it would actually be easier to move the wall fixed gate, assuming the fixing is still the same as when we got ours you just slide a clip off the wall bit and lift the gate off, much quicker than un screwing and re tightening the pressure one

Just wondering when you measured it what did you actually measure, did you include the fixings, they might add the missing 1cm if not

redstar - IMO you should stop, I won't say much more because I'm lacking in sleep so haven't got the brain power to word my reasoning without it no doubt starting a heated debate on here

i'm thinking that the difference will be the fixtures. I'm leaving this one to DH to sort as he let me sort pretty much all the rest.

with our old walls we'd probabaly end up with half the wall missing if we start screwing things in them lol!!

Afternoon all.
Hi Sami :wave: Hope you are all well. x

Oscar managed to nibble a bit of toast and keep it down:T.
With our stair gate Hubby put a wooden baton on the wall for the extra width.

Hi Glam

Kian also hasnt slept through since we started weaning him. Mum thinks he's hungry when he wakes in the night, cos after a bottle he always falls asleep. I think the bottle now is a habit so need to wean him off that now. I'm hoping when his appetite picks up he might stop looking for the night time bottle cos he's still having 5 bottles a day. although 3 during the day are only 5oz the first/last 1 are 6oz.

i know J eats lots more than Kian so i dont think his waking is from hunger

red - good luck with Freddie. I'll chime in my agreement with Sami .

Landlord's just been around with an agent to value the place. Was hoping they wouldn't notice the dent in the door, but drats to her eagle eyes . Was going to go to the park later, but now it looks like rain .
