Ok. Ds has less than One Week to get into his school trousers - HELP!!

[Flightattendant4]

it seems that the girth of my firstborn has somewhat expanded. He has always been quite a chunky boy but slimmed down nicely about a year ago...however he has suddenly got quite chubby round the middle again of late and he now can't get into his school kecks.

He's been HE'd for a term so we just got them out as he started school last week and is going back full time after half term.

How can I get him into them before next Monday? Short of making him jog 20 times round the garden every morning...

I have cut down biscuits/cake since last week and am trying to get him to eat more fruit, which he is doing. Will also try and ensure lots of running about every day.

I suppose it's obvious what we need to do, but if he can't wear them for a few weeks, does anyone knopw where you can get slightly larger waisted ones? He isn't tall so getting an age 8 for example would just require massive shortening!!

Thanks

Oh bless!!

I think you need to measure round the tummy flight, not under it!

i might if I feel brave and can find tape. I have been using a ruler.

But the 22 ones do fit. He seemed to be happy in them.

right flighty, i have here on my lap 4 pairs of trews i hope will help you out. they cost me close to nothing and i dont want a cheque for a couple a quid postage, so do not worry about cost... cat me your addy and ill send them on to you

Lagore - you are a wonder

Thanks so much!!!

Unfortunately I do not have CAT as I flounced. They are making a fortune out of me I tell you. That was the second sub in a year.
