MSE Parents Club Part 14

Michelle - hugs. Others have given you sound advice and not sure if it helps knowing we've all been there before! Have you thought about leaving her for a bit when she wakes up at 5 - she may drop back off since I doubt she's genuinely hungry having already fed twice in the night. Just a thought, as it's not everyone's parenting style! What we do chez Aless is since I still get up to feed at 2am, DH gets up with Finn at 6am (though sometime he does wake earlier) so he can play with him before he goes to work. It works out VERY well as mummy gets some extra sleep and daddy gets to see his baby a bit more

hammy, soooo pleased you're finally getting some sleep at last!! Finn also still has a 2am feed so maybe one day we'll both get a complete night's sleep . Glad his eczema has cleared up at well, go David! :T

Those leggings are fabulous, I want to order about 3 pairs! Would you just wear them as normal trousers, then?

I know this sounds daft but I wouldnt want DH getting up at 5am if he has to work all day. When he comes back he does spend what precious times he has with her. He also does loads of household things- the only thing he doesnt really do is cook.

It doesn't sound daft and it's great that he does contribute to the household jobs and spends time with A but it sounds like the distribution of the jobs (i.e. you doing all the night feeds and early mornings) is problematical. If he could do the night feeds and early morning on one of the weekend nights I'm sure it would make a huge difference to you and how you're feeling and the trade off in terms of you needing to do other things which he would have done would be worth it for the unbroken/longer night.

I've just emailed the BP person they mention in the forum thread about it but the Money Making Gifty people said the same happened to a few of them and they got no reply. I think they were just emailing the regular "promos @" address though.

Secret Santa - The Final Plan

Anyone who would like to be involved with secret santa, please pm me with the following:

1. Ages of your kids that you'd like involved come Xmas
2. Any allergies that you or your littles ones suffer from
3. Address.

Please note :

From the preliminary round the following have been set
You'd be buying a gift for mum and kiddies (the pairings are done based on similar circumstance, e.g multiples with other multiples)

There is a £10 spending guide (as everyone's budgets are different but a guide means noone feels pressured to spending more than they've got) in total.

PM's must be received by 10 November so that the pairings can be allocated and gives people plenty of time to shop/post/make

Just quoting this. PM'd you.
