FFS! I have written this message 3 times now! It keeps showing me a blank screen! Here goes. Third times a charm

Wilkie- Eeeew! Congrats to your cousin
Laughalot- Hope checkup went well.xxx
Urban - If you really want MIL to see a pic of z and her heart to melt, you can get photos made into postcards at Asda. You cant send a postcard back unread!
Pinkcandyfloss-Good Luck!

Saltcod -Def go with reusables. Sooo much better at keeping in explosive poos.

Spent the day running up and down the stairs to Luke's demands of 'wee! Wee!'. Suppose it is good for fighting the flab and most wees were in the toilet, only two accidents. I think I have become immune to the smell of dettol!!

Not good with new names so laughalot it is for me.

Eah I am your person for holiday reviews im a travel agent go ahead ask me ?

Tesco nappies for me I always used to use pampers untill I read on here how good tescos nappies where so I tried them and find them loads better than pampers they are more comfy and strechy I often put one on for bed

Not a bad example of the disco dick dont bloody mention that thing to me .

Great news laughalot

I'm a convert to Tesco nappies from Pampers as well. Wouldn't have dreamt of putting dd in own brand nappies (PFB syndrome ) but tried them with ds after recommendations on here and they're great.

Yep good hotel dh stopped there along time ago he used to be in travel aswell and visited that hotel, depends what you want from your holiday though as the resort is very quiet but that is perfect for a family.

Having a really rough evening/night here
Freddie has been having the ready made, liquidy cartons of SMA (since about 2 weeks).I have just today started trying to give him the powdered version (for various reasons, ovbiously its cheaper and we're going away soon and i know we can't get the ready made overseas) and he has been quite unhappy all day and has had real trouble settling down for the night with lots of crying, which is not like him at all. SMA say there is no difference between their ready made and powdered formula but it does appear to have had a bad affect on the LO. Don't even know if this is possible - another MNer suggested an off day?! Don't know whether he'll get used to the powdered stuff if we pursever or if we should give up now before he gets worse? First time in ages i've felt guilty for not breastfeeding

laughalot - glad to hear that lo is ok

shimmer - maybe give it a day or two and see if there's a difference? Could well be an off day. I feel guilty every day now for not breastfeeding dd and she's 5 She's ill all the time and ds1 isn't and I bf him so I'm now wondering if it's because she wasn't bf, guess I'll never know but I just wish I could turn back time and bf her. I know I'll be feeing bad about it forever

Hi everyone
having a quick catch up before the dream feed.

Shimmer - is it because you shook the milk to disperse the powder? I am using Dr Brown anti-colic bottles which advise against shaking the bottle which creates bubbles an get air into baby's tummy (something I always did before).

Now I just swirl gently to disperse and there are no lumps. I also use Infacol and Rose seems much more settled after feeds.

I am stopping bfeeding now too, and my boobs are full of unwanted milk I know its is the best thing for us both but I feel bad...I wish I could do both but she prefers the bottle! (Like her mother)

EAH - hotel looks good - any other recommendations for child-friendly s/c accomm in this country for hols? I am not going abroad this year with my brood!

WilkieBarEasterEgg · 27/03/2007 07:52

Shimmer - I found SMA generally bad for Jacob through and through. However, the ready made stuff definately seemed to agree with him more (he had it whilst he was in hospital poorly at 10 days old fro three days) but he really really didn't get on with the powdered stuff.

Maybe you should consider switching brands to Aptamil which I am using now. I can't recommend it highly enough and he switches quite happily between the ready made and powdered versions. He is a very settled and contented baby (she says as he starts crying!! )

Hope this helps!
