Sequeena - Glad Thomas is doing well after everything he's been through!

4nabella - Hopefully that's the start of things to come. Jack was like that from about 6 weeks, now he sleeps from between 9 and 10 (sometimes he amuses himself in his crib before falling over), and is up between half 6 and half 7.

Kira, I've been driving round since week one, but I still find it stressful! It's the not being able to see what he's doing. On the three hour journeys I insist on having the lanky teen to tell me what's happening.

Have you not got one of those mirrors you attach to the head rest of the rear seat? They are great for a bit of peace of mind. I hated not being able to see DD in the car.

Hi Sequeena it is lovely to see you again. Also brilliant that your little guy is coping so well despite everything he has had to overcome A truly inspirational boy.

After taking big boy to his outpatients appointment this morning it has become apparent that I need to get a new car seat for my daughter today as current one is dangerous for her. Problem is that I still have no clue what I need to get!

Stupidly put on a white top this morning. However after tring to feed baby girl sweet potato and butternut squash it has gone a strange orangey brown colour, as has some of the grout in the kitchen and it doesnt seem to be cleaning off! :rotfl:

Carmilla I found that there was no definitive answer as to when you can drive. I spoke to my insurance company (Tesco) who said as long ad my GP said it was ok. I spoke to my GP who said as long as my insurance company said it was ok. So I rang insurance back and they advised checking with the DVLA who said as long as you can d an emergency stop, and look over your left shoulder to perform manouvres (sp?) then it was ok. I started driving again 4 weeks post-section.

I was given one of those the other day... but my car seat is actually in the front (airbag off) because it is a very tight squeeze to fit in, and because the pram chassis is sometimes in the back and I worry about it sliding over. Even though he's next to me, I still can't see him easily because of the handle of the seat though, unless I take my eyes off the road for far too long.

Another poo-splosion today! I think that means no more size 2 nappies, and I still have a pack left over I was going to use up. I'm running out of shops I haven't swapped in! Those whose babies poo every day, do you get normal ones, or do you have poo-splosions too?

Only two where it's come out of the nappy so far... both times when the size 1s were starting to get a bit small but we thought we'd finish the pack anyway. Now Elliot's on size 2 and - touch wood - that's been much better so far!

Is anyone planning on getting their babies christened? DH would quite like to but said it's up to me. I was never christened as my parents thought I should make up my own mind what I believed when I was old enough to decide. I'm finding it really difficult to make a decision on this one!

I can't believe we're out of size 2s already! At least today's explosion is near the end of a pack, rather than after I started the next one.

Just finally registered the warranty on my pram, on hold for ages but instead of musak, Silvercross give you Yorkshire news and weather.
