On the buggy question, my twins had a maclaren from birth buggy and it would have been lovely as a single. The one I had was a twin techno, the single is called a techno xt, I think smartie12 has got one for daisy

I quite like the Phil & Ted, I found out that squeak doesn't like to be underneath, had to go and register the birth and needed the baby's car seat. So back to baby underneath!

Our electricity is off all day tomorrow so after the toddler group we'll be braving for the first time, we'll be off to my mum's lol

MERFE

Congrats BP xx


We had a petite star zia for Bobby, its was good, still use it now. We got it for £50 barely used from ebay with cosytoes. It doesnt seem like great quality, I'm not sure how long it'll last but its done a year and is so light and easy to push, folds tiny and real easy to grab out the boot and throw open with one hand.

LL I watched it, was a good programme.

Well eldest is having problems at school, apparently she is complaining of tummy ache everyday. I asked if she liked school today and she said yes I do, I cried today because the sums were too hard. She was moved down a spellings set before Christmas because she was getting none right even though we had practised them and she knew them all, well this week her spellings were, hat, ham, bat, jam and map and she got one wrong. She is nearly 7, DS spellings were harder and he got 5/5 and I dont think he practised them. Last year was a really bad year at school for her and she made absolutely no progress but I put it down to her newly qualified teacher who didnt seem to understand all kids are different and have different needs. The beginning of this year started so much better with her much happier to go to school but it seems to be creeping backwards again. I've an appointment to see her teacher after school on monday. I've made an appointment to see the doctor as well just to make sure the tummy ache arent anything else.

Not sure if it's the same thing but when I was a student I worked in an optical practice part time and learned that when young children get migraines they get them in there tummy,sounds odd I know but a lot of young children complain of tummy ache and it's actually a migraine.that said,I used to often complain of tummy ache when I was upset,hope you get to the bottom of it.defo a good idea popping into school to speak with teacher

OMG - it's positive!!!!!!

How does it take over 2 years and a miscarriage for the first one and 5 minutes (we weren't even trying) for the second.

I am freaking out. I love DS (1 on Thurs) but how am I going to cope with 2 little ones and no family nearby!!!!

LOL..

I tried 5 years after Tiddles and nothing and the dr said I was menopausal..

however..

I have 13 months between my 2 youngest .. having had 18-24 age gaps before it is easy-peasy.. this is like having 2 babies but 18m+ is so much easier.. they can talk better and understand more and so long as you keep them involved with caring for the baby.. passing nappies, wipes helping at bathtime they are fine.. honest!

and.... congratulations!

Busy busy day here and I'm shattered! Still got all my work to type yet!

Good to see this thread is staying alive....

DD is walking!!! And yesterday she stood up on her own from crouching *proud mummy*

Am sat here stuffing my face with After Eights. I'm all depressed because I think AF is here. Body is all over the place. Been spotting for 3 days now and still not fully on. Never had this before. Usually when I see that first smidgin of pink AF is full blown in a few hours.

*feels sick*

*has one more After Eight*
