    Morning:)

    I hope today brings a bit more happiness to those having a poo time at the mo... especially those with idiot men in their life:mad:

    Loving the pics!! Kitkat... I think little Theo may just be a potential boyf for Daisy because he's such a little cutie;):D Where is the stripey yellow sleepsuit from?? We haven't seen much yellow stuff around and think yellow may suit Daisy!:)
    I dressed Edgar in tonnes of lemony stuff, I'd put it on fairy group for you but its all summer stuff so wouldn't be any use to you :p Most of it was from Next, I think the baby fashion police decided that yellow stuff must only be sold in summer :mad:

    5 minutes before the Ticketmaster site breaks! :rotfl:

    I've just realised the clocks go back Sat/Sun this week. OH is on a 5pm-3am shift. How will that work? Will he work til the new 3am therefore doing another hour? Confused.com


    ETA: I lied, ticketmaster has broken already! Noooooooo!
    Guess who has the best sister in the whole wide world? :D
    (and also has 6mths to get her son happy to go to bed with out 100 BFs first!!:eek:) (and has to explain to her husband why for the 3rd year running they won't get to do anything special ON their {3rd} anniversary):rotfl:

    SirM - all sounds totally normal to me, as Gill (?) said they get more efficient at feeding :)
    :( for your friends tho, its just awful.

    WM - massive hugs for you. I got weepy reading your post, losing a doggy is
    horrible.

    I meant to post this last night but forgot, How good is this cake! I did a double take at first! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=117145691675606&set=a.117145128342329.23585.117137611676414&pid=103054&id=117137611676414

    :( Warning! WM Bringing the thread down.

    Last night I had to have my beautiful 15 year old doggie Phoebe put to sleep. I am devestated. :cry:

    Due to her age I have been waiting for it, but still it's hard. I really hoped to find she had gone in her sleep, but she collapsed last night and it wasn't good. Cue visit to emergency Animal Hospital. But I knew she had to go.

    She's now running around with George (another of our dogs) in the big playground in the sky. :)

    Poor Mikey is now lost, he is only 6 months younger that Phoebe but still looks and acts like a puppy. And I have to tell Joe when he gets home tonight.

    But hey OH is now speaking to me. He is a total !!!!!!, but last night he was fantastic with her and me.

    Hope those off out for the day have a good time, good luck with Personnel SS. Hugs for poorley babies and their mummys.

    I'm off to do some work. Last day of the month and all that.
    Oh no :(:(:grouphug::(:(
    Proud mum to now-grown-up daughter (Pebbles) and two lovely grandchildren (Roxy & Chip).

    How time flies :)

    some devasting news here my school friend's 3 month old baby has just died of mennigitis, just realise how lucky I am!

    Slightly worried about t's feeding as the amount of time he spends at the breast esp on the mornings has dropped off, from 15/20 mins both sides to maybe 10 mins one side. I then spend an hour trying to get him to feed more but then he just sits on the breast. Is this normal, just worried he is getting enough - still feeding every 2 to 3 hours.

    Truely horrible news, it made me give T an extra big cuddle, can't imagine how they feel.

    T has mostly always fed on one side only and for short times (unless she was having a growth spurt!), and she has always done fine.
