Aimee never really tried to climb out either... She was just gone 2 when I turned the cot into a bed and she didn't try to climb out for a good week or so...

Thanks SS, makes me feel better when I know others little ones do too. I may well be quoting u if my in laws question it too much when we are all on hols together next week, as there are 2 other babies of similar age in DH family, one a lil older and one a lil younger, both who apparently sleep through the night.

ETA thanks Glam, may well be quoting u too, hehe

Like WM said - fingers in ears and all that! I've given up hoping he'll ever sleep through for more than one night in 2 months!

J is FF and that's supposed to make them go longer! Not in this house!

Tonight, he stumbled 2 steps without holding on :eek: He can cruise like a pro and loves pushing his ride on car around but he was holding onto a box and wanted to get to the sofa so rather than doing his usual drop down and crawl he just threw himself to the sofa.

And he hasn't stopped talking all evening! It sounds like he is saying 'Yeah' over and over but in different tones, sometimes it sounds like he's asking a question, others like he's answering a questions then he'll just shout out 'Yeah'. It's like a one word story :rotfl:

Think J will be a cot escapee - he almost got into the bath tonight by holding onto the bar and crawling up the side! He's never got that high before!

3 i could post Erin to you and then they would have each other to play with?? might stop her climbing out i LOL with the cot turned upside down comment!

Ooooooooooooooooooh crabbit.

I spent ages this afternoon cleaning something for Husband and didn't get so much as a thank you. And then when he came home he started playing GTA right away and then when I asked him to amuse the baby for a while he asked me if it was going to be like this when I finish work, with him coming in from the office and me immediately expecting him to play with her! Um, yes?! Because she's your kid?! And if you're going to make her you'd damned well better share in her care, and if you love your wife make sure she gets a break. Pfft. I don't get it, he moans that Molly comes to me over him when she falls over or is cranky, but he does nothing to try and build that sort of relationship with her.

Still, he did put her to bed and that is nice.

Eep, I feel sorry for the Angel cot lady on Dragon's Den, but I don't see the point in the product. I first of all thought it was a portable bed sharing cot, which I liked the idea of, but it's not!

Hugs, SS but a little yay that DH put the Mollster to bed.

No advice on the escaping babies, but if you find a solution please do share!

Evening all..

.. Elle, Rhys's teeth give me hope. Despite white shadows all over Molly's gums, nothing has actually broken the surface and her baldy gums continue to taunt me. How did the physio go? And was the consultant today or tomorrow?

Physio was fine ta. She doesn't think there's any problems, he just needs to be left to get on with it However, consultant says he's not to be signed off completely until he can walk... grrrr!! He not "behind" for walking yet (compared to the magic "average"), she just wants to keep an eye on him :cool: Always the same with her - she's a bit obsessed with Rhys' development (given she was the one who told us he wouldn't make much, I guess! ).

Other than that, everything's fine She noted the lack of clear words but she's not going to do anything about it. Not interested at all in teeth She's chasing up the next orthoptics appointment but they're hideously behind.

We next see her in five months (improvement on the three month gap we have been getting). She asked about kidney scans, but we're seeing Notts specialists next week so I'm to ask them. Last time, they did suggest he only has them at 1yr (had that last time), 2yrs, 5yrs and 10yrs, but he'll most likely need a transplant before then, so who knows *shrug* :cool:

Elle, she probably doesn't want to not see his adorable little self any more I'm so glad it all sounds so positive.

Tantrums – I just leave Katie to it.

The step is also utilized in this house to – violence (hitting etc) straight to step, anything else it a couple of warnings first.

I just do rapid return with Katie - 1st get up - put her back to bed quietly with a night night and a kiss, 2nd time, same but I just say bedtime, 3rd+ no interaction apart from covering her up, I've been doing that since she went into a bed.

Not been on FB yet to vote, I will do though.

Aww Glam, J's little conversations with himself sound so cute!!

Another quick question, T had really mastered drinking water from his Tommee Tippee cup until about a week ago where it seems his teeth are getting in the way or he is biting the spout maybe, and lots of water is spilling back out, much like when he was learning to drink from it. He has 2 teeth at the bottom middle and the 4 top middle ones. Does anyone else remember this happening, Im hoping he re-learns soon as he keeps getting soaked!!
