July 2010: Our babies are growing, they're grabbing their toys and soon they'll be throwing!

new thread ladies xx

Two freaking cups fgs?!! That SURELY can't be right for tea as its about half the caffeine of coffee if not less.

Jeez... (I drink gallons)

And I was feeling all proud of myself as I've lost weight! Unclear how much as I have very attractive and yet pretty much unusable scales - I have to round up (or down!) To the nearest 1/4 stone so I may have lost 1/4 of a stone or just under 1/2 a stone....

//panicky googling of bf and tea//

Have a great night out kk! Sounds like a lovely plan.

Disclaimer: That made it sound like there was a correlation between my weightloss and tea drinking. There isn't (alledgedly)

According to the bf bible kellymom, I am drinking, ahem, just slightly over the upper limit of tea. www.kellymom.com/health/lifestyle/caffeine.html Sorry can't do proper link as no square brackets on blackberry.

Think I'd better get out the tasteless decaff bags I lived on whilst pg.

//throttles tsc//

i smoke a couple when drinking but would never go back to smoking full time.

mlic i just wondered if she's maybe just hungrier than before? Christmas lights switch on sounds good. Glad W is better

kk your night sounds lovely, ds is going to stay with his friend so just us tonight very exciting night of xfactor and i'm celebrity lol

tsc its progress luv at least he tried it. Not be long till your off out.

cakes well done on weight loss, i do 3 zumba classes and i'm just starting to loose a bit (bout 3lbs)

I am doing nowt today, dp is taking R to his mums so I can have a couple of hours peace, yay x

aw how sweet of E, hope ds2 is ok. Maybe he's just overtired because of yesterday, let us know how he is

cakes and stac well done on weightloss, ive only lost a few pound sinces the first few weeks after having L
mlic thats so cute E said that!!
took L swiming this morning, i watched rather than went in! went into town after to get a black jacket for tonight as its bloody freezing but didnt have any in my size so looks like im going to freeze my sorry ass to death! my jackets dont fit its like my back is fat!!

Oh memphis you'll freeze!! i've bern looking for a winter coat and cant find anything i like!
Cakes and stac well done on the weightloss! its a lovely feeling to get on the scales and see the numbers going down!
Mlic did william wake yet? bets are on its just tiredness. Hard not to worry sometimes though!

Whos baby is in their own room? We're going to try Dylan in his tonight cos I think we disrupt him alot. It does mean getting out of bed if he wakes though but if he wakes less it'll be worth it.

Sam's been in his own room for 4 weeks now, I'm used to getting up for him although last night I was that tired that I walked into the mirror by the door that was reflecting the light from the hallway

Oh haha chulita Im sorry that really made me laugh.

Im in 2 minds about his own room, a part of me thinks it'll help him sleep but then I think he might not and Ill be up 4 or 5 times.
Also he's used to co-sleeping so god knows how long it'll take to get him back to sleep.

Taking a break from xfactor whilst wagner is on (watching it on delay)

dh we'll keep A in with us til about 6 months. We all sleep like logs so don't disturb each other and I love this stage of them being so tiny that you can have them right next to you. We didn't move F out til 7 months and I was so upset when we did put him in his own room but then within a night realised how lovely it was to have our room to ourselves again!

I've never smoked so don't understand how hard it is to give up - but well done!

mlic I've got connection probs with my mac today (think you jinxed me with your computer probs!) But when I get back online I'll load a pic of the picture

Such a shame about your anniversary - how many years is it?

My friend's baby has had all sorts of issues with milk since he was born (he's now 5.5 months), been on bm, formula, soya formula, neocate and now goat's milk formula which he's doing really well on at last. I know you don't know whether w is allergic to dairy or not but thought I'd mention it in case you want to speak to your doc about it.

Sorry, that sounded smug mcsmuggins. What I meant was dh, dd and I are all heavy sleepers, ds however is most definitely not, so we would sleep like logs if ds gave us a chance.

He's been co-sleeping (aka kicking me in the face, taking my pillow, pinching my nose, singing nursery rhymes) for the past couple of weeks as dh promised to get him back into his own bed (only takes 1-2 nights usually) but keeps wussing out. Promises tonight is the night... (Secretly will miss the cuddles but it's only til the next batch of teething/illness of course and then he'll be straight back in our bed again)

It's ridiculous how bad a sleeper F still is. We've lost far more sleep because of him than we have because of A over the past 4 months!

A has never slept in our bed which is just as well as there's no bloody room!

I scared myself by reading a thread about a baby that stopped breathing so Dylan is staying in with me!
Hes happy enough in my bed so thats where he'll stay til at least 6 months.

Oh chulita, cake and anyone else interested in nursing bras, mine came yesterday from figleaves and they are loooovely! Perfect fit and good quality so wont lose their shape in the wash like the M&S ones.
