  • Oh, and I forgot to say, I had a free Avent feeding bottle delivered yesterday - I don't even remember filling in a form to get one, and there was no note to say where it had come from!:D

    Yeah, I've noticed there's been a massive run on big, fat hairy pants this bank holiday. You just can't get them anywhere.

    PS. !!!!!!?? :D
    I've spent all morning trying not to cry and your the first one to make me laugh! Thanks.

    Kub nusery chair and stool is what I was after.

    I had one of those. My guess is its linked to bounty or emmas diary.

    Out of interest, why are people concerned about the cat still sleeping in their rooms? Is it because they might try to get in the cot? If so, you can get cat nets for prams, moses baskets and cots. We're getting one for the cot so that the baby can nap without my worrying about having to keep the door shut (the cat's always shut in the kitchen at night anyway

    I blame the internet! My DH has been reading up on cats and newborns and according to the 'experts' cats like warm places such as a newborns head (not my viewpoint) and have been known to crawl into the cot and accidently smother the child by snuggling up to its head! Now as I said this is not my viewpoint and I had actually planned on letting the cat in the room etc but DH is now worried. I did ask in M&Ps if they did the cot nets but I was told you cant get them due to the possibility of it coming off and smothering the child. How much this is the opinion of the woman in the shop I dont know.

    I want my cat and the baby to have contact and I'm all for germs - seen how being too cleanly can affect children - but I think my cat is going to hate having competition. DH wants to move the cats bed out of our room at the beginning of July and close the door on him. How that one will work I dont know as I cant go to the toilet without my shadow being with me and if I have closed the door on him he cries and scratches to get in.

    Ok, surely a net is something that you can breathe through?? Unless it's strangulation they're worried about...?

    On the cat thing, I have no idea what my mother did when I was really small but we had a siamese cat who put up with all sorts of abuse from me, and there is a picture of me at toddler age snuggled right up to the cat. I suppose as all things it depends on the cat as to whether they'd attack the child - although I think it unlikely - and you will jsut have to be sensible regards the possible smother risk. If you're in bed anyway I'm sure the cat would enjoy its usual spot with you rather than heading for the odd smelly noisy thing next to you!

    Big fat hairy pants - all out of stock at my local babyrus. Not happy.com! Anyone got any current money off codes for argos?

    boots have the tutti bambini deluxe reclinable glider chair and stool reduced to £129 and if you go through quidco you can get another 10% off and collect boots points (approx £20 worth of points)

    Sometimes Emmas Diary has vouchers for Argos
