    Is it just me, or do you suddenly realise how squeaky your floorboards are once you've had a baby! I have to mentally picture the noisy ones when sneaking out of his room, its like an obstacle course! x

    :rotfl:Tell me about it! We have one right next to LO's basket, but because the floor is carpeted I can't tell exactly where it begins and ends - I've now taken to roll onto the bed and roll off it at the other end to avoid the squeaky floorboard!

    Hiya the forum seems to be getting busier. Need to wake up ryan soon for a feed before off to nursery to collect his sister.

    He will be 7mths at the beginning of July - how the time flies and he is getting into all sorts of mischief. He has been crawling for a week now and got 2 teeth - hes too young for crawling - no one told him this.

    We are getting on great with weaning and he loves his food but will be doing a lot more jars next week when we are on holiday. I hope its dry for some of the week so that we can get out and about without being wet.

    Better go - speak soon.

    the cot bed is great Ro :D A really seems to like it too, which is good.

    He is starting to crawl too, (will upload vid to my FB for you to see if we're friends? can't remember if not add me) he's very slow and clumsy but he is moving forward :) xx

    I need to try and fit some keep fit in but the only time I can think of really is about 6.30 before everyone gets up...that way OH can look after babs with minimum of effort before going to work...didn't quite manage it this morning - I always seem to talk myself out of getting up early by the time I've gone to sleep!

    Do you have any mother and baby classes near you that you might be able to get to? Things like buggyfit, where you run/walk/do obstacle courses (yes really!), or mum and baby yoga - or even postnatal exercise classes where babies don't have a 'role' but where they're welcome to come along and stay in their buggy whilst you exercise? Failing that, power walking with your buggy might do the trick (and it's free!) - I've started doing that, although London pavements are a bit of a health and safety hazard!...

    :rotfl: about the squeaky floor boards. When we decorated the nursery we laid a new carpet and now there is a squeaky floorboard right in the doorway to his room!! :eek:

    Bubbles (that's my nickname for him!!) was really giggling earlier :D first time he has proper giggled. It was so cute.

    Well I went.. to find they'd moved the room the appointment was in... to next flaming door to the neonatal ICU... so I had to walk down the corridor towards it, past it, which started me off crying, then sit in a waiting area looking at the door to it... cried some more... then I saw the doctor who was the worst in terms of the hideous bullying at the birth (and the one I'm pretty confident did the social services referral) and that opened the floodgates too.

    Appointment was pretty routine - but then going back - the lift which was the shortcut between the ward and the ICU started me off remembering her being moved up onto the ward in that lift and her crappy hospital cot... basically it was flashback after flashback reliving everything - can't get the memory of her in an incubator in the ICU out of my mind again now.

    Went straight to the clinic the consultant appointment's at in a fortnight and told them I wasn't up to dealing with going to it - which they were surprisingly fine with.

    Was definitely a bad move going - having to walk the long corridor down to, and past ICU has triggered so much that I can't shake now.
