Not as far as I know
I'm not really sure what to do tbh
I mean there has 'only' been 2 incidents and it might all be fine once H gets used to Chris being around? His key worker was off T&F last week and wasn't aware of any of this until yesterday when I told her, also they aren't supposed to name the child but Chris told me anyway
The KW did say its not like H to be aggressive and I'm not blind to the fact Chris is no angel but I know when he is lying and he appears to be telling the truth when he says he did nothing to provoke H.
I have real trouble being objective about this because my first instinct as a 'victim' of bullying is to never take him back
I think it's a really tricky situation. At her last nursery, there was a little boy who used to hit and bite the other children, I used to get quite upset when A would come home and say that 'D' had hit her. Children do hit each other occasionally, but I used to find that normally it would be a case of one child having a tantrum or something, but this one boy used to keep doing it and when I spoke to the staff, they would say that the parents 'were aware and working on it'... because she wasn't due to be there long, I let it go, but I wasn't happy about the frequency of 'incidents'. The boy obviously had problems, but I don't see that my child should suffer as a result! I used to tell A to not play with him and stay away, though I did feel mean, especially when she would say 'but nobody was playing with D'. I never really did resolve my feelings about it.

Half Price Perfumes are letting people who don't pay the tenner use their secret sale area to clear out for Christmas, if anyone wants to stock up on gifts. 5% extra off with code >LOVEHPP< but I can't figure out how to get Quidco to work because you have to click through that link.
You naughty naughty lady
I just got my £40 worth of stuff from there (oh dear yes oops) in the post today and now I must go look again.
I tell you, those little mini bourjois lipglosses are good value for 5 for £5, I gave Keira some.
Oh oh oh also, there was a thread on the grabbit board last night with cheapo toys on Amazon. I got Keira an ice cream maker for £7 odds (supposed to be about 25) and Jessie and bullseye for £8 instead of £30

AF - Good luck with the bed tonight!
PP - so pleased that your dad's out of hospital.
To be totally honest, I don't think I had that rush of instant love with either of my babies. With Amelie, I just felt really freaked out and detached from her. I remember her crying and thinking 'I wish someone would sort that baby out'
. With Freddie, I had a better idea of what to expect, but I still felt like I was operating on autopilot - doing what had to be done. It was only later that I really felt that love for them.:(

Afternoon everyone, hope everyones ok?
That tag thing is really good sami, jake loves his, i've just been to tesco too, wonder if we were there at the same time! ive just picked up some talking waybuloo's to put away for xmas, she already has the pink n purple so i got the other 2 so she'll have a full set, Jake's come home a few times saying theres a boy that keeps nipping him and he got pushed off a scooter the other day! he doesnt know the boys name though.. something that annoyed me slighty was he said he needed a wee when he was playing out at dinner time and the dinner lady wouldnt let him back in, hope she is willing to clean him up when he wets himself the silly cow! i wet myself a couple of times when i was just a bit older than jake cos i was too shy to ask if i could go to the toilet and i still remember how embarrased i was!
When jake was first born he was passed to me already dressed and fed! was quite gutted about that but i suppose they couldnt leave him naked and hungry till i came round lol, oh and if he cried in the hosp i pretended to be asleep so someone else would deal with him:o i bonded with him when we got home though and had lots of cuddles, x0 -

I think it's quite normal you know. I remember when Keira was about 2 months old, I insisted to Idris that I was putting her up for adoption because she wasn't mine and the whole situation was just wrong.
Thankfully that period cleared, but I had a bit of PND with her, I never bothered taking the pills though, just muddled along. I didn't think of her as mine for ages though and kept calling her "Ellie" I once left her in a shop in my mums village just because I wasn't used to having a baby to push in a pram
Plus if you think about it, your body has just went through a hell of a trauma getting the baby out, overwhelming love may occur, but I think relief and sleep is what's on most peoples minds

Good Luck lovely AFThank-you AF. XXX :A
Good luck with tonight.
Anyone got a Ford S-Max?
my friend has an s-max, she have a c-max previously, had no probs with it and she like it (then again I know a load of people with ur current car who've had no problems)
I'm wary of fords because mum used to have a ford escort that was possessed
we were on the motorway in winter it was dark and raining and the lights n wipers just stopped working other times random electrical things would just come on/go off no one could find a problem with it so she swapped it for an astra sharppish 
Forgot to mention that Chris was playing fine with H when I went to collect him yesterday - this confuses me considering what he's like when I drop him off, maybe he is just using it as an excuse sort of thing because he can't express what he's feeling in the mornings?0 -
Sami I did have a look at your previous posts but can't see what you posted about "H"
Is he hitting Chris again? I do think boys are more likely to lash out with fists (well just my experience in the nursery environment anyways)
Keira's friend Ethan whos now in school never got on with this kid called Connor (to be fair none of the other kids seemed to like him because he lashed out for no reason) it all started because C bit E and drew blood and then clobbered him on the head with a toy. So E hated him from then on, must admit I had to stifle a laugh when the nursery teacher told E's mum that he had been told off because he had punched C right in the face when they were washing their hands, but then C had scratched E before and they didn't know about it.
It's all very confusing with little kids! Im grateful the worst thing that happened to Keira was a stealth attack in the toilets, she's so sensitive she wouldnt hit back though.
Oh yeah and she told me that she doesnt like the boy with shiny hair in her class because he stinks :rotfl:
Me - Well that's not very nice, what does he smell like?
K - Like dog poop. Mum really it's so gusting.
Me - Maybe he farted?
K - No, he smells like poopy all the time.
So either he is one of the bad bum wipers OR she could mean one of the new indian kids, because I do know she hates the smell of garlic - and moans if you are cooking a curry and leave the kitchen door open. I'm not sure who she means though, but I do know one little boy and his mum whiff strongly of herbs and spices.0
