    Was it not just a pink one? Like block colour, no pattern?

    Oh did someone mention hairy backs earlier? Keira seems to have a gorilla trail from the bottom of her neck down her back. Cause she is dark haired it's quite obvious. Will that ever go away or will she be destined to back wax's :p

    We tend to only use Hipp if the boys have jars. I have always tried to give Hm if I can but as some others on here will no doubt agree better if they try and will accept the jars as they are handy in an emergency - like being stuck in traffic on the motorway etc.

    I thought for those occassions as well...

    CAFC - I found the jars all pretty samey, the hipp ones when you got to stage 2 Chris didn't like because they were more lots of hard cubes in a sauce rather than a thicker mush with some lumps IYKWIM?

    Edgar hasn't ever had a jar I don't think, he refused anything on a spoon for ages, stuck in traffic type emergencies were easier with him, just shove a rice cake in his hand and he was happy :cool: he does/did like the ella's pouches and would happily suck 'em straight out of the pouch - no mess :T

    the heinz tins knocked me sick tho, i only tried one, reminded me of dog food _pale_ oh and those powdered meals - ick!! might as well blend a pot noodle - looks the same :p
    1.good to know
    2. yay for suckable pouches
    3. if L decides he wants dog food, i'll let him fight it out with Gordon Ramsay....
    Will be weaning Little Ava soon she is 17 weeks today but going to wait for a while longer. Going for homecooked mush, little bit of baby led weaning at family meals and jars when out and about. She has a snuffly nose today and can't feed very well. Has got herself in a temper with my boobie and has somehow given me a little white blister thingy which is quite painfull. Poor little mite sounds like Darth Vader.

    That was my plan....Hope her snuffles get better soon....

    I think L is partly ready for weaning, he just doesnt seem satisfied with milk...i've made 9 bottles so far today, he takes between 200mls and 110mls from each of them. Ive tried eeking him out from one to the next so that he'll take a full on feed, which kinda works unless he really starts shouting the house down, or he'll take the full feed and then want another 110mls about half an hour later etc....
    He eats his hands,his bibs,muslins,my shoulder,his pushchair straps, everything goes in his mouth.....and gets chewed.... I thought maybe teething but i cant really see owt or feel anything either.....

    He cant sit up by himself yet, although hes getting much better at figure out the balance point, my mum is currently bidding on a bumbo and tray for him on ebay....

    god, somedays its just all too much for my tiny brain.....

    Aww loving the xmas piccies! Must get looking for S's xmas dress up outfit for this year, he must have something embarrassing and possibly elf or xmas pudding-y to wear!!

    How soon after DTD can you test for an accurate result? If somebody DTD 3 days after a 6 day AF ending, but isnt sure of the normal length of the cycle? :o

    Buttons, my cousins are half Lebanese, and their mum has been waxing them since they were about 8-9ish as they were hairy wee beasties.

    :D Sami, ok your sister looks like I pictured you (but if you look like twins....)

    Becles, you've done an amazing job, studying, working and raising your kids, plus have Charlotte in the middle. Hats off to you girl!

    I think you might be right - that's probably why I don't remember it.

    CAFC, it's pretty much a given that kids and pets will share food at some point.

    The whole thing with weaning makes me :( but :) at the same time. I can't believe Sophie's growing up so quickly that she's almost ready to try food.

    CAFC - is L on hungry baby milk? if not I'd try him on it, sounds like he's a prime candidate!

    I think the 3rd sleep suit was all one colour with a picture on the left breast, I had the blue version I think :cool: we passed them on to Rhysy, the boys ones were dogs, were the girls cats?

    em, biologically, 10 days which takes into account the 7 days in which you can conceive and the 3 days from tube to implantation. But I would not trust a negative at that stage. 14 days I would trust a negative and then I'd re test a few days later. You can of course conceive on the day of intercourse, inwhich case it would be 4 days. For an accurate result, Id go with 14 days, retesting in say 3 or 4.
