Hello!
Been a member for a while but only started using MN a couple of weeks ago. May now be slighted addicted!

I'm trying and failing to get month dd to sleep on her own so what better time to start a first thread...

Needless to say, dd has inspired my username, although I do have another which in very fond of too.
Who/what inspired your name?

I'm very tired too, I can't think of a more glamorous threat atm

Welcome, OGTSP! Flowers

Mine comes from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, in which it was uttered by the Taunting French Knight. I quite liked it and felt it appropriate, as I speak French and am a dairy farmer's daughter.

Mine is from Shooting Stars, I wanted to be the Dove from Above but it was taken so I am it's lesser known cousin.
I have another but discovered it is very similar to someone else's so I changed.

Hello!
I only joined this evening Smile
I have been watching and laughing for a little while though. A good stress relief after work and no pressure to join in.
Some people's names make me smile.
Mine came from liking pink, lol, but also I loved the herds of Buffalos when I visited the USA. Was going to have pink giraffe, but it was already taken.
Nice to meet you Smile

Ah interesting question! I don't think I've been asked that before.
Mine is Christmas related, I'm usually on the Christmas board from June onward! I love all things Christmas all year round.
You get quite attached to your name, it's quite strange.

Welcome op!
There was a character in a book I loved called Little Bee but that user name was taken.

What have you tried to convince your DD to sleep on her own? I used the sleep board A LOT when DD was under one. It was really helpful as there were a lot of different tips so eventually I found one that suited us!either that or DD just got fed up and gave in.
