    How sweet! He must have better smelling feet than my hubby, though. I'd rather have cold feet than his socks!

    Was thinking the same! :rotfl:

    LOL - I am not saying they are the freshest socks but it's the thought that counts!!

    She was sleeping through about half the time and not having BF overnight, but since being ill last week has become a boob fiend - it's like having a newborn who can lift my shirt and specifically ask for boob.

    While she was quite ill I was happy for her to have the comfort and immune system benefits of breastmilk, but I don't want it to become a habit now she's getting over it.

    You know yourself what you have to do. Be strong hun, some battles you need to have for their own benefit xxx

    Aw - how lovely is my hubby? He just took his own socks off and put them on my feet because I have cold feet :A

    Ewwww, that made me _pale_.
    I have a dreadful foot phobia, which includes worn socks. OH knows I can't touch his socks, never mind wear them. :eek:


    SS I think you'll have to have a few nights of being cruel! I have a friend who fed her DD until 3yo, and she woke every night several times to feed. To end it, she went to sleep in the conservatory for a few nights, the only place she couldn't hear the crying, while OH dealt with it. :(


    I think i'm off to bed now too. It's very strange OH being on proper 10-7 nights. He got home this morning as we were getting up. Although having the bed to myself is lovely! :D




    Halfcost site isn't working for me now, and my Facebook is still being odd.

    MFD I would be _pale_ if Husband tried to do that to me, although I freely poach his thermal shirts.

    Tia, there's a food kiosk gift he might like? Also on the "foodie gifts" page there are a few others including a chocolate and a coffee one that also seem good. Bonus gift wise... one of these? Might be useful if he's off to far flung places.

    I don't want to be mean :( but once I am not feeling ill any more and have a bit more strength to deal with it (and Husband is also not feeling ill etc etc) I will.

  • OMG I'm watching the news on delay after that Cheryl Cole thing about the new Wiki Leaks Iraq things _pale_ :(

    I'm off to bed now. I have lots to do tomorrow and on my own as DH is going to a friend's and staying overnight.

    Good sleeps all round and "see" you all tomorrow. P.S. Lovely to meet a couple of new posters tonight :)

    ETA just got a text off a number I don't know, no actual text, just a picture of some individual wedding cakes. How random!

    I'm in this sort of predicament too!
    I'd start with daytime, Ed still sometimes asks for BM in the day but I say no and give him his cup of water, if he's persistent I'll give him a cup of milk and that usually passifies him.
    unfort - this doesn't work at night, I have found recently he must have started to get cold because he has slept better since I added a vest under his PJs, he's also teething tho which doesn't help!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    I tried giving her a cup of milk - she dribbled three mouthfuls down herself and then carefully shook all the milk out of the cup onto the floor :o :rotfl: :o
