I was going to get it for xmas cards, how do i make photo xmas cards?

Is it a complicated printing & folding thing, or do i just print the photo and glue it to a card?

We got free ones printed last year from a Grabbit. I can't remember who they were from, but i'm sure someone will.

Ah yes Michelle, the hair loss. I think mine lasted about 2 months. It does stop i assure you.

Mine lasted a lot longer than two months and I ended up having to get a fringe cut in, as it was the front section that went awol, and when it started to grow back I looked like a nutter!

Gill, you have a PM hun.


Well bedtime was not so traumatic today. We waited until after 7pm (normal bedtime) to start the bathtime routine, then I added in a beautiful book that I love to read (but Benjamin often won't sit and listen) and then we just had about 10 or 15 mins of half hearted 'cries' whilst I shushed from outside the door and then from the bottom of the stairs and he went off.

I have been so spoilt for the last 6 months with the max 5 mins and just chucking him in his cot that it still feels like a lot of work though

My hair loss was horrendous, I have loads of very fine hair and it was very noticeable - even when you weren't looking at my scalp the drifts of it on my clothing were terrible

But my hairdresser told me that you should rub gently up from the back of your neck into your hair and when you feel stubble the worst is over. Now I have inch and a half long chunks sticking up everywhere :rotfl:

Evening everyone,

my baby monitors have developed the same fault as last time, so having to send back to amazon again but they are just refunding this time, but i bought them when they were on offer so i've not really got enough to replace them with something as good, want digital tho cos the first set i had were crackly and picked up someone elses baby coughing and heavy breathing!

I found my ipod touch today, not seen since june 20th:D was in the kids book box right at the bottom full of scratches but at least ive got it back,

my hair has started coming out again in the shower,:( i think mine could be stress related, but the more it falls out the more i get stressed! i went to the hairdressers last week and no bald patches were mentioned so hope it calms down, it does feel a bit thinner but maybe its my age

Krystaltips

My hair fell out for well over 6 months too... I have stupid short bits all over now... Maybe next time I'll just end up with an all over bob... Would save me a bit at the hairdressers anyway...

Glad it was a bit easier tonight Mfd

Hello Gill, missed you! How was the wedding and your holiday?

Awww thanks Michelle The wedding was fab - I got suitably drunk and had lots of fun. T has even more fun being spoilt rotten by his Grandparents, and was a little :A so they're more than happy to have him overnight again :T

The holiday was lovely, we were really lucky with the weather and my surprises for DH's 30th went down really well. I'd got him a driving experience for while we were away which I told him about the night before we went and I'd arranged for our parents to all turn up on the day after his bday and surprise him

T has been having some sleep issues for the first time and I think it's coz he's so active now that he needs more substance. I was going to start weaning from tomorrow but ended up giving him some baby rice when we got back today. I'm hoping to make it to the shops tomorrow so I can start with the pureeing and fingerfoods.

How's the lovely Ayana? I see you're starting with he babyrice as well. How did she find it? T loved his but I think I need to make the consistency a bit thicker.

MFD - thanks. I've replied x
