sorry.... my MW said if you get a good surgeon they can soak up and remove most of the lining so you hardly bleed. apparently bleeding after a c=section should be a lot less than a v-birth

we have this http://www.amazon.co.uk/LeapFrog-Learn-Groove-Activity-Station/dp/B0002C6N16/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=baby&qid=1285595832&sr=8-3
and kian has loved it. even now at 1, he will still play with it, either sat in it or stood up against it.
its in the kitchen so when i am cleaning/doing dishes he can be there playing along

I had other things done to me after they finally got Daisy out so I guess thats maybe why I might be bleeding more too... plus the surgeon may not of had chance to soak up etc because of the situation I was in:(

Ooo that leapfrog activity station looks good too!!:)

Aless if you were out and about at this time would Finn fuss for a feed or would he be fine? I dropped Ed's 3pmish feed when I realised he was fine without it when distracted by being out so I just started giving him a little snack with a spot of milk in a cup at that time instead

Yes, we've already used that strategy for dropping the late morning feed (snack + distraction). I may try to do the same for the afternoon feed starting next week, since I don't want to do too much at once. I'm sure he'd not fuss if I just gave him 2 bananas :rotfl:. (maybe WE should be coming to Monkey Forest )

smartie - Finn has an Learn & Groove but when we visited my sis over the summer, she borrowed a Jumperoo and he LOVEDLOVEDLOVED it. Obviously it just depends on your baby, but I'd go for a Jumperoo over an L&G.

ahh...
although i was an emer c/sect it was straight forward.

We had this and yes it was/is pink! Which we borrowed from a friend and it used to keep Benjamin quiet for hours!! We also used to store all his toys in the bottom of it in the evening!!

I think an entertainer of some sort is brilliant, but I am not sure whether a jumperoo is better than anything else.

jillie1974

there are lota of entertaiment centres available.

they are used up to about 1yr old depending on the child and centre. we were lucky in that Kian loves his and will still use it but from what i can gather from on here, people have found that the jumperoo does not seem to last as long (with use not product problems)

oh does sound rather cra.ppy MFD, at least its something to keep the money coming in I suppose. Not so sure about more expensive for DSS tho, Chris has told me he needs to write to santa and tell him Grandma wants a Wii, 4 Wii remotes and all the same games as us :rotfl:She has actually started to consider it! :eek: I told her to not be so silly!

:rotfl::rotfl:Surely Grandma needs some NEW games for Chris to play when he is there?

My brother and I clubbed together to buy my mum a DS last year (or was it the year before?) and she broke it within a month :mad: She got it replaced FOC though

hi all,

someone needs to make me buy my tumble dryer. i really want/need it, but have spent a lot of money of late with the move, so struggling to make this purchase and a pet hair hoover

ours was less than £100, but you could try asking on freecycle and see if there are some going....:A

not much going on here. Landen had a mammoth 2 1/2 hour nap with me on our bed upstairs whilst i was watching dvd, and gave DH a few hours to himself..... :T

to be honest I think for all the use it gets we should probably send our Wii to grandma's. I might suggest it goes there for a trail maybe, knowing mum she'll decide to buy it off us for £50 or something :cool:

How on earth did she break the DS so quickly?! Mine was fine until a certain little boy was allowed to play with it *rolleyes* I'm sure the most expensive part of having kids is replacing and fixing things constantly!

OH hasn't even noticed the Jumperoo has gone. Going to see how long it takes.

SJ the fairies have flown today.

I keep going on argos website to see what else I can buy on the 3 for 2. I need to stop as my bank account is in melt down. I've got everything that was on Joe's list, except the Golden coin maker, because it looks rubbish. Apart from the "laptop" he has requested, he has been very good, the list for both his birthday and Christmas are not excessive. So i've added a pair of Roller blades to his birthday presents which i hope do not come with a trip to A&E.
