...."Because he's a baby. That's what babies do. What did you expect?"

ChukkyPig - that's why I'd only answer 50% of the threads like that. 25% I'd answer "because he's not that into you" 10% "if you call your baby that it will make both it and you look like plonkers". And the final 15% I would answer with a random selection from "have you tried Boden?" "Make rissoles" "Put some savlon on it" "Why aren't you at A&E already you idiot" "I don't know if you're in labour or not, but if you can sit at a computer and type coherently then you've probably got a while to go" "I agree, all MILs are witches" "If you want your child to have a harder reading book why not ask the teacher?" and "It's much too early for you to be potty training"

seeker, you're right about the A&E bit too.

I frequently wonder about people coping with emergencies and rushing back to the computer just to check what a random bunch of strangers think they should do!
