Tip of the day

Don't get in a panic over Christmas. Keep a box and put a little in it every week - small gifts, wine, nibbles, napkins etc. This way, you'll be more relaxed and less skint in December! keriku

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Although friends gave us lots of books, apart from one on breastfeeding this was the only book we needed and referred to regularly. The routines work well but are flexible. The advice on sleep, feeding and weaning are simple, clear and easy to follow. Would recommend and have done so already.

Very practical and sensible advice. The suggested routines are achievable. Rachel Waddilove writes in a kind and sympathetic way - clearly written by a maternity nurse who has also raised a family of her own.
