Lots of great tips, thank you! Pillowcases for Moses baskets, having two pages open at once... Wish I knew how to do that!
I use single sheets for junior beds - gives a nice little ridge all the way around so they do not fall out! (tight arse)
Growth spurt major from 20 to 22 weeks. I am 24 weeks now, and am feeling better.
2 year olds are soooo tiring! Lots of ability, speed, and no sense whatsoever! I am however finding the 6yo more challenging - like having a stroppy teenager already. I thought my tiredness was my age, so I am quite encouraged you young things are feeling it too.
I looked out the boy clothes yesterday - DD2 had to try them all on, then wondered why she could not breathe. I have six big pampers boxes worth, all like new, so well chuffed. Up to 6yo! I even have early baby stuff, so will put that on baby doll to get the girls used to the idea. Baby likely to be a big one, so unlikely to be used by him. Not many sleep suits, so will ask folk to get them if they are looking for ideas.
Is there a subtle or acceptable way to ask for specifics? With the girls we had so many tiny posh outfits that never got worn and we needed things like socks, bibs, nappies. With my parents they asked, my inlaws asked and completely disregarded what I said, so I did not dare mention it to anyone else. Obviously what we really need with this one is wine, pâté and soft cheeses. If you drink wine after last bf of night, then it is fine in moderation. Trouble is, when they are new, there is no such thing as a last feed.
