Hi AB!!

She is such a cutie!!

How's it all going? Are you enjoying being a daddy?

Is Izzy breastfed or formula fed? Is she eating, sleeping and pooping well and are you making sure that Mrs AB gets lots of support?

I'll sound my neighbour out, I'll have to give her a few days to get over 'stuff' tho, what nights are out cos of football?

Get MFSIL to take it back for you lol...

Ha, well, he works Mondays Fridays and Saturdays, and seems to be at football Sunday days, Monday evenings, Tuesday days, the occasional Tuesday nights and Wednesday nights :rolleyes: So Thursday is usually free but can do other nights if it works out better for you.

And absolutely let your neighbour settle back in first!

Armybike I remember you too. Glad all is well and lovely piccy

Hiya MFD,

Izzy is our first baby, but have to say that she is a little diamond and it's a total pleasure to be her Dad.

Mrs AB breastfed for the first ten weeks and she's now on formula. She's feed without any issues every four hours and we're anticipating her periods between feeding during the night will extend soon (any tips would be appreciated )

She's popping without any problems. We did have a brief period when she seemed to get a little upset when filling her nappy, but that's gone now, so all is good.

With regards support, whilst I can't be around all the time due to work when I am here we share all duties, because I of the opinion that it's a team effort and want to make Izzy as happy as possible, so if Mum and Dad can be in a good place, then this will just make Baby AB a happy/positive little lady. I've not no problem with feeding, nappy changing, bathing, changing etc.

Being a Dad is bloomin' fab

Ok well I can't do next thurs and M goes back to school the Thurs after, might have to be a Tues or Weds if we want it to be in the next couple of weeks.

Anyway I'm off to bed in a min, am hoping will get some sleep tonight now I've only my own house to worry about.

GISI - the only times Edgar has bitten me like you describe is when he wasn't hungry but I was auto pilot trying to feed him in the night and he was mysteriously crying a lot.

Bruno - i'd go for the toddler bed personally. I found that it was easier to let Chris stomp about his room and keep sending him back up the stairs for a few nights until he twigged it was better just to go to sleep.

Hammy - Christopher's eczema improved loads when we switched to goats milk and if he has too much cows milk now it makes him start itching within a couple of hours. He doesn't have a dairy allergy though, goats milk is still dairy.

We had plum baby savoury biscuits today and they were scrummy! Could deffo be used as an alternative to crackers too harking back to the cheese n cracker convo last night

Som - do you have a microwave? I just bung veg in the micro with a spoonful of water to kinda steam it. will try to post ur bottles 2mo depending on how Chris is after his nursery settling.

Morning all

Sami, its a Vtech one and ours was from Quality Save (very similar to Home Bargins) for about £10. As Mel says, one of the most played with toys we have

Ta chuck, we have quality save here shall tell mum.

dt1 - yey for eating rice etc boo for toast, it does seem that toast doesn't agree with him tho - maybe just sack that off for a while? Hope you feel perkier soon

Susan - yey for you and OH and Alice I was <this> close to sending you a test

r.mac - big squeezey hugs, I hope your friends sister and family are as ok as they can be! A friend of a friend has a still born around when Chris was born she has since had a beautiful little girl just after I had Edgar, I don't know how she managed it without going crazy!

Chris used to go to the barbers for a hair cut, the last one I went to had toys and all the girls were mums and quite good with him but now he gets it cut by my mum's mobile hairdresser Lezzer-lee as Chris says it, he loves her, he is her little assistant handing her clips etc while she does mum's.:A Ed had his first cut by her at 13mths, I've never heard anything about not cutting babies hair?
I have them just trimmed with scissors until this summer when Chris started having the back n sides clippered I think he has a #3 and looks far too grown up with it!:(:p
