Have you ever wondered.....

Why babies bounce? And other inane questions.
Dd (6 months)and I are at home today, she was sick but now she bouncing madly on my knee and squealing loudly. Does she fancy herself as a jockey?

Anyone else

no idea but dd does it on her legs herself, when she is holding onto the furniture she bounces up and down (mini squats)...why???

why is there so much fluff in the tumble drier and where on earth does it all come from?

Chuffed · 01/11/2004 15:28

or when there is none - where does it all go?

dogwalker · 01/11/2004 16:06

and why do teenagers grunt?

Stripymouse · 01/11/2004 16:07

and why is it that my 3 year old says "yeahbut" all the time when no-one in the family do this (and she hasn?t watched Little Britain)..

Why do men always leave the toilet seat up? Even when you ask them to put it down? It's not hard

why are hairdressers deaf?

I really feel so strongly about a repetitive thread/poster on here.

Why does it bother me so much.

Why am I desparate to post on said thread with a big "ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ heard it all before"

Gonna have to log off before I staat an argument I think.

JoolsToo · 01/11/2004 22:44

oh no! now you've got us all guessing - give us a clue then or can I 'smell' something in the air?

emmatmg · 01/11/2004 22:45

Emma - because the subject is actually pretty serious but we all keep going around in circles with it and apparently getting nowhere. It's VERY frustrating. I have avoided it tonight. (Assuming we're talking about the same thing!)

emmatmg · 01/11/2004 22:47

God no MrsD.

There's only one person on here that makes me feel like this.

moomina · 01/11/2004 22:47

You are fragrant MrsD

JoolsToo · 01/11/2004 22:47

Mrs Doolittle are you floral??

emmatmg · 01/11/2004 22:49

if I could be bothered to do the link I'd find tne old threads for her, with all the advise she needs.

onlyjoking9329 · 01/11/2004 22:49

I wrote that before you posted JoolsToo, it just take me ages to do stuff

moomina · 01/11/2004 22:51

Part of me feels really sad and worried about it - part of me thinks 'Oh, FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!!'

Sorry MrsD - hijack alert!

emmatmg · 01/11/2004 22:53

Gosh Ladies, It has dawned on me [lightbulb emoticon]
Reminds of the first thread I ever read on Mumsnet, 7 months ago. I had just started mat. leave and was anxious with braxton hicks contractions

OP posts:
JoolsToo · 01/11/2004 22:55

tbh - I haven't seen any previous threads - but would tend to steer clear of ones like that anyway - I have no experience and couldn't offer any constructive advice anyway.

Ditto JT.

I did add my teeny bit yonks ago but when I see the same thing asked over and over that was the first and only time.

I hate doing this, feels really bitchy. I just want the help and advise to be listened too and not ignored this time.

Back to the original question.

Why does my DH nag like a woman....like my mum infact?
