    haha WAS delain. I'm an 18 at the moment :( I think it is a 16, black, it was in a bag of mat stuff i was given...give me a couple of days and i'll dig it out if you like. I can pop it in the post if you want to borrow it (not offended if not!)

    Well my little monkey pulled himself to standing today for the first time. He's been pushing from crawling for a little while but for the first time pulled himself up when not on one of our knees!

    here's a little piccy...

    He's also got a rash on the back of his neck (and is generally a bit grouchy!). I showed the dr when i went on monday and she said nothing serious, but it has got a bit worse. 3 pooey nappies today which is one more than usual too!

    Thanks pigpen, thought that was most likely!

    Have just put L's chicco table up, it's this one which I got in the sale for £30. Not sure it's as good as the leapfrog ones though :(

    Looks a lot like a viral rash to me Rach. which would make sense if he is grouchy and has an upset tum too xx

    Hope everyone is well

    Kai is currently potty training. After me being all overly concerned that he wouldn't even entertain having no nappy on!!! He just did it, no accidents, does wees and poos and doesn't even dribble in his undies, holds it in perfectly.

    T!a runs over and sits in front of him clapping each time he sits on it lol x

    Good afternoon ,

    Rach - well done to your LO for pulling himself up, hope hes feeling a bit better now.

    Mel - well done to Kai on his potty training!

    Took Poppy to get weighed today and she was 12lb 14oz, dropped down slightly on chart but they seemed happy with her. The last two nights she has been waking up loads again.Last night she would not settle between 3am and 6am arghh. Trying her in her cot bed forfirst time tonight so will see how that goes.

    My OH is a police officer in London and was meant to finish at 11pm last night and got home at 8 am! He is back in at 3 today. He hasn't been too involved but his work mate got run over (thankfully ok!).

    Rach and Sir M- hope things are ok where you are, stay safe!

    I think Poppy is definately getting the hang of rolling, put her on her front five times in a row this morning and each time she just rolled straight onto her back.

    Wendz, your OH and mine might work together! Mine was in a police line in croydon on Monday which had a car driven through it, running over one officer. My OH works for the transport police though rather than the met.

  • Hi all.
    Well my little man has been doing well the last few nights. The night before last I bathed him at 8, he drank his milk and slept til 1am! Then he woke at 5ish and then 9ish I think it was. Last night he drank his milk from 8-9, slept til 1:50am! Then up just after 5:30, then again at 8:10 because the dog woke him lol but he decided he was hungry anyway :p Is it right that he is hungry every time he wakes, even if he just ate an hour ago lol he is a lil fatty! We got a bit out of routine today so Im not holding out too much hope of good sleep tonight. Only got him bathed at 9 as we had been out til 7:30ish and he was hungry when we got home so fed him first, bathed him then gave him some more milk. So Im hoping that is enough for him to sleep good.
    Problem I have is bath time. I usually bath him before I feed him so he will go to sleep while eating. Well he cries all the way through his bath! I know he likes to be in it as he did at hospital but now he just cries because he wants feeding. Is there a better way to do this?
    Thanks
