How useful would one of these be for Thomas for the winter?

Also, what do you do about their hands getting cold? Are little mittens the best option?

Thanks for your help everyone I dont know whether my method of feeding isn't helping.. as I express and bottlefeed and if he is still hungry I top him up with aptimal. My MW and HV seemed to think it was ok, I might get some of those TT anti colic bottles as I need to get some of the bigger size ones for when he is taking bigger feeds, I have got a boots voucher that I can use for them the reviews seem good. I will try the 'leg cycling' otherwise we have actually had a good day today, no tears.


I do think this is just something he has inherited off his windy father

My first day today alone with the baby

Kitkat - T was exclusively breastfed when he had colic so I honestly don't think the method of feeding has *that* much impact. I think if they're going to get it they will. My friends baby boy was co-fed, but primarily breastfed and he had it too. The infacol never worked for him but she switched to gripe water when he hit a month old which sorted him out.

kit kat, my ds had really bad colic and we were giving him aptamil, ran out and they only had sma gold and not sure if it was coincidence but that seemed to help as well.

Quinny casters have been announced on facebook - is one of them september baby? One of the names is missing so it may not be.

Also I complained to bargain books direct about the damaged fisherprice books and got this back

Very pleased as I'd given up hearing anything from them, and in my letter I only asked for the 2 damaged books to be replaced

I don't think I entered in the end but passed it on to SIL.

Good news about the book! I really am impressed with the company

KK, Colief was fantastic with Jamie and my Dr put it on repeat prescription for a year (its v expensive to buy!). He would cry for hours on end of an evening and it broke my heart until the HV recommended it.

Are you sending it to PALS? They were really helpful when I complained twice - once because the out of hours GP at Durham hospital gave me penicillin despite me telling him it sends me into anaphylactic shock. I took it without realising and ended up being blue lighted back to A&E. The second complaint was when my GP receptionist refused to let James see one of the doctors urgently when he was very sick with an ear infection, as she didn't think he was sick enough. PALS got involved and suddenly an appointement materialised so I could get the antibiotics he needed.

I need to have a look and work out whether it's best to send direct to the hospital or go through PALS. It sounds like PALS helps make them take notice so possibly the way to go. I'm planing to wait a couple of weeks before I send it in though because I don't want them to assume I'm just complaining because I'm upset about the miscarriage and therefore write off my complaints. And how they could do what they did in your whited out bit without thinking there was something wrong with it is beyond me.

Workinmummy My almost 10 yo girl only wants a pony, a laptop, an i-phone and a new bike for her birthday and christmas this year.
If you weren't thinking of spending that much, her favorite places are Claires and Accessorise for girly earings, hair things, bags, scarfs and makeup. She also likes girly bath stuff, bath bombs etc.


Kitkat No advice on windy babies, but how was your first day alone? I loved it when OH went back to work, the visitors fizzled out and me and V got some peace & quiet.

Hi SS Have you been having fun?

SeptemberBaby_2

Glad you had a fab fest, SS

Thanks everyone - fab Sunday-fest was only the beginning Thursday I'm going for lunch with some friends and again next week, then I have another table reserved for the closing Sunday evening. However, yesterday I think I drank sufficient beer that I don't need another one till Christmas
