What am I doing wrong???? She was tired so I just put her up to bed and she had ANOTHER MASSIVE screaming fit at me....so bad at one point she was going purple and nothing I did calmed her down except rocking her which she never normally needs... she's always had a bit of a cry when first put down but normally drifts off fairly quickly but today has been a completely different story I just don't know what I'm doing wrong and how much more I can deal with today! Argh!

She does sound overtired to me.

K's on SMA gold. We offer her 6 oz at each feed but at most takes 5oz.
Think tonight I'm going to throw the kids at ste (not literally lol.) and do a runner to the pub!!

Do they do one for hungry (er) babies - she might be hungry - just tired of all the sucking she has to do, after all its hard work for her and that might be tiring her out but yet she may still be hungry ?? Again - just another thought, please don't think I'm interfering

Hope you're sleeping/resting now IA

I hope you got some rest/sleep too.

Don't know if I dare mention the words 'pack up' to you. I did mine earlier today cos DS goes to an asc on Mondays and I had spare time on my hands so I've done ham rolls, chicken leg, fruit salad, choc biscuit. It's much same as yesterday cos the ham chicken and fruit all need using up.

Does the fruit salad keep okay spendless? Do you mind me asking how you store it etc, cos mine always goes mushy if I make it the night before.

Spendless

Usually it contains mango, pineapple, oranges, kiwi fruit, grapes, topped with 'fresh' (well the long life stuff from the shelf) orange juice. Leave in fridge till needed. It's usually all gone by day 3 so unsure how long it would last after this.

I only put apples and pears in if they need using up as they have a tendancy to brown and soft fruits like bananas or strawberries I don't add until the last minute as they do have a tendancy to mush I find, so it might be the fruits you are using.

I have used frozen fruit before (the mango was frozen this time) but I've never used tinned, it's usually all fresh.




There was a thread about fruit salad the other day on o'style I'll go find the thread and edit.

It must be the fruit I'm using I think, I'll give your version a go, thanks!

Hi IA,
Glad you had a good night out.. shame about the hangover (the sign of a good night). Did the polish arrive!!
I'd also try K on milk for hungry babies too I am sure you can get the ready made one's for about 50p rather than buying a big tin... Just so you can see if it works.

Nope no rest/sleep for me... just trying to control 2 kids whilst shopping for our foodie bits. Got back at 7ish and K had another massive screaming fit so we've given her some calpol and have finally managed to get her to sleep..

Luckily Ste has a day off tomorrow so no pack ups for me tonight but we did buy a few bits for him to make up lunches with so we're off to a good start.

Nail polish arrived this morning and I've just had 5 mins to try it out.. it's gorgeous.. only problem is Ash insisted that I painted her nails with it earlier as she wouldn't leave me alone otherwise so now she has one hand worth of nails painted and looks rather odd... she's well impressed with them though! LOL
