Problem is, we do for the first baby what it says for the third!

What on Earth are we going to be like for the next one!

very good and very true!

Fantastic - one more to add

1st baby - you wean exactly at the recommened age in the exact way recommened

2nd baby - you wean at the right age but 'move' through the foods quick enough

3rd baby - you give them it when you think they're ready for it - and don't bother with the 'must haves' and 'must not haves'

4th baby - you get all their names wrong...

Gwenick · 03/04/2005 22:43

Jan - 4th - I've only got 2 and call them the wrong things

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2005 22:45

That's brilliant Debs - I feel quite "normal" after reading that.

the goat and the octopus statements are particularly true arent they?

JanH · 03/04/2005 22:46

Well your brain starts going after the first, Gwenick - but the more you have the more names there are to confuse you!

(My dad called me by the cat's name once. Put me in my place I can tell you!)

Gwenick · 03/04/2005 22:47

I suppose it doesn't help that their names start with the same letter

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2005 22:57

I called dd the cat's name the other day
