Or use for the next newborn coming your way?

Anybody know of anybody with a newborn on the way who Krystal could donate some sleepsuits to?

Mfd, you are the main caregiver... The CM doesn't count, she's an employee... She'll never love him like his Mama does

No she won't, but she does love him and he loves her and that makes life a hell of a lot easier

They have gone to Crash Bang Wallop this morning - he will be having a fantastic time!

EA, the la redoute offer was a £10 off code with no minimum spend... And I don't have newborn sized children... I give birth to 0-3s lol... (plus they're raspberry coloured, and I could still have a boy... Even though Hubby has now decided he really likes our choice of girl name and he would like a girl...)

Damn, cant belive i didn't look into it

I pretty much squeezed Lily into her newborn stuff just so i got use out of it, she was in it for about a week :rotfl:

I had about 40 newborn vests and 30 n/b sleepsuits IIRC

Nope, moving tomorrow. Packing today! (again)

And now I have paint all over my hands and no way to get it off as it's the non-water-soluble kind. Had to repair a dent in the door, plus I think I used the wrong color so am going to have to paint the whole darn thing, grrrrr.

Hate packing houses. Hate hate hate it. Plus I need to send off my resignation letter to work today. :eek:

I love the big slides at crash bang wallop lol... It's a good place, Not keen on the layout and the many places to hide though lol...

EA, I knew C would be a biggun... I bought 2 newborn sleepsuits just in case that I gave to my friend and everything else was 0-3...

have a grumpy Lo today - think my mood was catching so just helped her with an early lunch and a nap will do us both the world of good. This afternoon we are meeting friends (thankfully) so that'll be fun.

3?!? I only had two, and one of those didn't count!

3 - how was bedtime tonight?

Good-ish - thank you for asking.
Again I stayed with her, but sat on the floor at the side of the bed ignoring her.
She has been waking up for a 3am walk about though?!? I'm wondering if she's always woke then but in the cot just settled herself back down because there was nothing else to do?

thats very possible. I've found that A can't sleep in our bed because she likes to have her head pressed against the bars of the cot, so just wriggles around to get comfy, misses the bars and inevitably falls out of bed :eek: Perhaps V is missing the bars? I wondered about those inflatable tube sheet things - a bit like bumpers for on bowling alleys!!!

wait a min....

As we are planning to move her to a full sized single when we do the bed thing :D:rotfl:

well so far we are having better nights. Kian has had a 5oz bottle at around 7 and then when he has woken next approx 11-12ish he's had a 7oz bottle and has slept through till 6am!! which is much better than waking again at 4ish.

had a chat to my mum who told me to stop worrying bout what he's eating lol!! and that he will get it soon!!

talking bout accidents...
this is the bad mummy who
*when cuttin kian's nails also manged to cut a chunk of skin off ending up with a visit to a&E
*saw him do a somersault off the stairs but land on the pillows i had left there to go in bin...didnt even cry
*put him up for a nap 30mins ago to then 2mins later hear him scream....cut his lip with his tooth when he slipped in his cot

Just a quick question!

I was just wondering how old your lo's were when they went into a proper bed or toddler bed?

Keely - i'd stick with the cot for as long as possible/safe!

We've swapped over to toddler bed last week as V was climing out of the cot, but i'm thinking she's too young for the switch over.

J & L were much older and went straight to normal sized beds. L was at least 2 1/2 and at the age to understand that big girls go in big beds and old enough to be bribed with a sticker chart!

I saw one of those at the weekend, Kiddicare possibly? I think V would see it as a challange to climb over.

Sorry your feeling grumpy RMac. A break will do you good.
I used to wonder if time away doing 'me' stuff was worth the bother, but now enjoy the rare time away I get but accept it'll take lots of stress and organising beforehand and lots of stress and tidying afterwards!
