oh blimey, dd3(9months old) has just drunk a bit of coke.....

[misdee]

this is a slippery slope now. she cried wheni took the cup away. one of the other 2dd's left their cup on the floor and she got it.

coke in the other dd's cup??!!!! you bad bad mummy!!!

i know. awful arent i.

She's obviously been influenced by the chocolate she had when she was about 3 months old.

Terrible.

Nah I'm worse (but it doesnt count cos Im a dad and dont know any better)
on our trip to France this year on the plane i let DD drink diet coke from the bottle!! my excuse was anything to keep her quiet for the next 40 mins.
should have seen the looks from other mums on the plane

blimey

DD3 is 9 months old

pmsl, ah 3rd child u do relax more dont you?

the thing is it wasnt even a lidded cup, it was an open beaker. and she didnt spill it.

my thoughts exactly twiglett

You have a child genius then misdee - drinking at 9mo from a proper cup. Go back and congratulate her

Coke!!!!! Lightweight. The sluglet was swilling coffee grounds at that age.

OMG! Call Social Services!

Well as long as there was no vodka in it...

giving kids coke at 6pm

you must be a glutton for punishment misdee

Twiglett, same as mine. Oh, the time just rushes by

cheeky mite, bet she would have spilled some if it was boring old milk but her focus was highly trained when naughtily sipping coke!

I ocasionally allow dd nearing 8months to taste the tingle of sparkly water on her lips, her face is a picture. Is that bad?

Carlk - how did coke keep your DD quiet??? Mine would have stopped the whinging for coke, but then gone hyper and bounced all over the plane

We have "mummy coke" and "daddy coke" in this house... something that DD has decided by herself - mummy coke is actual coke... daddy coke is beer - I think I've been diddled

We have 'Mummy and Daddy water' and 'bubby water' in our house. Ours is gin

Erm, can someone enlighten me in my ignorance please? Presumably coke is bad because it has lots of sugar in it, same with squash, right? So what's wrong with diet coke?

Diet coke has all the artificial sugars, which some argue are worse than the normal kind... for me though, any coke has caffeine in it, which sends DD nuts - she's the same with tea

the kisd went to sleep fine. i allow a small cup of coke when we have takeawat pizza, call me a bad mum if you wish, but its not like i'm shoving it in their bottles lol.

I wish I could do that Misdee - I always feel so mean when I say no... the slightest thing sends DD off the walls though.

I know I'd be attacked by the viewing junk food as treats brigade , but it is sweet, and is seen as a treat to her.

Not that any of that was relevant... I'm just jealous

mine react to cheap orange juice tho.

thankyou!!!!! DD has been nuts all week, and I couldn't work out why - I bought different squash!! I love you soooo much you wouldn't believe it!
