Morning all! Sorry, I was hoping to do a proper catch up last night but went from being busy to exhausted in about 3 seconds flat - the dangers of sitting down! And of course, as soon as I start to catch up, the munchkin wakes up.....back soon.
Right - 5 hours later! 
Mamma I've not had chance to properly speak to DH as in his words he's impossible to please at the moment (or something similar). He's agreed to pay back a set amount over a period of 6 months, although I need to go back over the figures to make sure they ate all correct as I'm not sure they are really. Some needs to go into the savings as well as paying back the overdraft. But I think he at least recognises why it's an issue, which is a start 
.
The 4 month regression is as ghost says. It's horrid but you do get through it. And better to deal with it if prepared for it! Yay for a great weekend and now being on mat leave
Gosh ellie that must be difficult, not knowing how much money you'll have coming in! HR are rubbish in my experience but hope you get it sorted.
Good luck with your chat with the BF lady and with these 2 weeks 
Thanks for the book recommendation ghost - will have to take a look at it.
Hi fools - lovely that you've dropped by . Sounds like Fliss is such a lovely baby and has a fab big brother Sorry about the illness - hope it leaves very soon. And are you a crazy woman thinking about the next one?!?
What a horrid group of women! 
I agree with Trouble that you should try again with another group even though I would rather eat my own foot than brave that But we all love you anyway, it's just a shame we're all mostly so far away. Glad Grumpy has been diagnosed and that things have improved for you - have you got him on a strict diet now then? I hope he gets a good result when he has his scan
Speaking of which, we never did pin down a date for a meet up did we? Did we mention November, or did I dream that? Anyone got any preferred dates, or ones to avoid? I'll be back at work by then so will probably need to be a weekend, but they're all free at the moment.
Hi Bun Sorry to here about your school friend 
I have a lot of biker friends, and it's so sad to hear about all the accidents that happen when the weather improves. And most of them caused by idiot car drivers although there are a lot of nutty bikers around as well
Glad to hear the trope family are doing well. Next time you see them, say hello from us and tell her off for having too good a social life and not posting 
If for no other reason than I need a "War and Peace" post buddy
So my exciting visitors yesterday were my pregnancy buddy and her mum, who called up to pick up my tens machine as she was in early labour She had a DD at 8.15 last night! So we both now each have a DS (4weeks & 1 day apart) and a DD (2 months apart exactly)
We're not planning anymore babies either - We always wanted 2 and as we've one of each as well there doesn't seem to be a good reason to have another (from the outside-of course it's never that simple!). But DH is talking about and looking into having a vasectomy and for some reason I don't want him to have one, even though we don't want any more children yet Also, I'm 33 so I've not got many more fertile years in me Completely illogical I know, but there you have it!
The jabs were just horrific (wussy mum here!). So I chickened out on the cot, but we've had lots of lovely snuggles . The check up went very well, I think, although I'm a bit confused about her weight. She was 4.15kg when she was born (approx 93rd centile). She lost weight after she was born but at the next weigh in was over her birth weight (for some reason these weren't marked in her red book 
). But at weigh in yesterday, she's only 4.66kg which the chart shows about 30th centile, although they've noted it as 50th on the 6-8week review page I wasn't asked anything other than how I was feeding, was she feeding/sleeping well etc, and her weight wasn't even mentioned at the time. I'm not concerned about her development, as she's very alert, feeds well, sleeps well if only at night and has plenty if wet & dirty nappies. BUT I thought that if a babies weight dropped so far down the centile range, that this was a concern? Is that only in the early days? She is a skinny thing but she is quite long, with a large head circumference (both 75th centile) - not sure if that makes any difference? Should I expect an impromptu health visitor call do you think? Being a mum is so complicated sometimes! Ok, enough waffle from me
