new thread ladies xx

Hope you enjoy your night cakes! i luuurve chinese! Had a look at your new pics on facebook. Your kids are beautiful! aurelia is just a stunning baby
must post a few more up. Im getting so bad for taking pictures! Really have to start capturing a few moments!
Oh god ellie gave me such a fright today. She was tired and taking her bottle and then started screaming and crying then coughing and choking and was going tomato red and she just wouldnt stop screaming. Tgen she started just puking everywhere and crying at tge same time and its just kept on coming anf she was still screaming. Took ages to calm her down and tgen she just went asleep and woke up fine. Dont know what was wrong with her but never want to experience it again and i just feel useless cos i didnt know what to do and all i could do was cry

mlic I hope I dont sound stupid and forgive me if Im thinking it all wrong but if I BLW wont he be able to have whatever Im having straight away? I know there are some foods he cant have straight away but a piece of bread, a carrot etc?

My lovely jeans came from Asos today and they are WAY too small :( really annoyed as they are so nice. I literally couldnt get them up my thighs :(

Thank you kk , that's so lovely of you to say.

Ellie's coughing spell sounds really scary. could some milk have just gone 'down the wrong hole' do you think?

make sure you do take pics! i take loads (pretty much every day) and i often look back on the ones i took of ds as a baby.

dh gawd, i feel for you. sooo depressing. tis still early days tho.

I'm planning to have another go at trying on some more of my old jeans this evening . My plan, when i do finally fit in them all again, is to treat myself to a really nice pair as a well done to myself (if i can't blackmail dh to get them)

dh yy re blw, you can just give them what you're eating. i don't think mlic was saying you couldn't. but bear in mind you're not always going to be eating something they can eat, esp to begin with - e.g. if you're having lasagne for lunch then you'll need to get some cucumber, bread or whatever for D.

Hello! I'm at the parents' at the mo looking around houses again so can't post very often.
cake my nickname means 'pretty girl' in Mexico [vain emoticon] I lived there for a year in a backwater village where I was the only 'white' girl and that's what I was called cos for some reason they think the whiter the better
dh I'm looking for some skinny jeans but every pair I try on don't go over my huge arse really need to start running again!
tsc to answer your question, I post on forces sweethearts and pregnancy threads most, I read but don't tend to post on AIBU cos usually at least one person's said what I was thinking anyway and I post on chat sometimes too.

We looked at 3 houses today and one of them I saw online and it looked ok but I said to DH that it looked like MOD housing...ha, we turn up and it is - ex-MOD housing. The moment we saw it we were like, no fricking way are we paying money for an ex-army house right next to an old base that they thought about turning into a prison nice investment
5 more houses plus a visit to my sister (and her new (4th) baby) tomorrow so dc's going to be a wreck - lucky me!

cakes mlic I see what you mean now! Im still looking forward to it

chulita these jeans are exceptionally skinny, im sending them back to get a bigger size. They do it by waist and leg length rather than size 8, size 10 etc so it was a bit of a guess what my waist size is!
Good luck with the house search :)

Me me...im fat.....!!!!! And my diet has completely gone out the window. Sick of feeling fat but no energy to do anything about it these days....ugh

Hey ladies long time no post, i know i'm crap. I do try and catch up but the mountain of washing, hoovering, bottles and general baby madness sometimes distracts me!

tsc i am fat! i was a size 14 when i got pregnant and am just fitting in size 18 jeans now although i walk for miles most days Good luck with the routine btw

I am full of cold and feel like shite!!! Dreya had the cold last week and also had her first tooth come through! I was quite shocked as i thought they didint really start getting teeth til 6 monthsish. Thankfully she's still sleeping through (sorry guys) most nights anyway but the odd 5.30 singing session. She also thinks it most amusing to blow raspberries all over herself til she's covered in slobber.

MingAh crap poor frankie. Just a very hungry little boy who loves boob. Tough on you though i really feel for you
yay for dreya's tooth! when your going it alone you deserve a sleeper!
Well we're just home from doc on call. She just got very listless after that spell today and was just laying there in a daze and then the odd fit of screaming. Went on like that for ages so i was getting really worried, doc said to bring her in, and the poor little thing has an ear infection! just thankful its nothing more serious. So she's on her first antibiotic and brufen. She seems to be coming round since taking the brufen so the poor little mite must have been in awful pain. Its times like this i wish she was old enough to talk!

Just ate mountains of chinese, came home, fed A and now drinking my camomile and chortling at everyone volunteering 'me, me! i'm fat, i'm fat!!". men would so never do that.

I'm not fat but i'm sooo spotty right now. every morning i'm finding a new one. Currently have: two on my arm, one on my leg, one on my bum and today i found one on my face (and i never get spots on my face). i hate hormones.

anyway ...

Hey nixster! congrats on our first tooth of the thread!! how old is dreya now?

tsc Aw! Little frankles has had it good til now tho. Still in that bed?

chulita cool! that explanation surpassed my expectations. i knew there was a story in it! where in mexico was it?

your house-hunting sounds hell. hope something comes up soon!

dh is now snoring peacefully next to me whilst the cat is kind of surfing on him.

Night all....

hugs for ellie. hope she feels better soon

oh dear poor ellie, glad meds are helping already!
nixster good to hear from you, well done dreya on the tooth!!
I am soo bloody ill i thought i would be feeling a lot better today but no... had to put an SOS out to sil who has taken L til lunch so i can die in bed alone!! i really need to get to the bank today but dont know how, struggled to change a nappy let alone go out in car!!

Thanks ladies!
Aw memphis poor you! good on sil for taking lyndon. You feeling any better this eve?
Well ellie in better form today. Still not herself but alot better. She keeps holding her ear!

Ive got to stop spending money now, I was bored earlier so went shopping. Spent about £50- oops!

Some of it was Dylan's xmas presents though, just small things.

Ooh I met that girl from DP's work today, she said shes heard so much about me, so I just said 'thats good'. Nothing amazing to comment on, just thought Id let you know, it hasnt made me feel any more reassured or anything, I still hate them going places together. They had lunch together today- cosy.

kk feel a bit better but not sure if its the cold capsules in dosed up on! poor ellie holding her ear!!
dh just remember your the one with a gorgeous ring on your finger!! i hope you waggled it in her face!!
mum bought me a hand blender its fab, ive done a whole bag of carrots, a cauli, a brocoli, a bag of sweet potatos and a huge bag of pears and apples so L is set for a while!! i had no fruit this morning and as i felt rubbish i gave him a organix pot, he wasnt impressed its like he knew it wasnt real fruit even though it said 100% fruit!

never thought i'd see tsc and gina ford in the same post

sorry, i'm a novice to ff and gf.

probably no help but i give A afternoon feeds at 4pm (ish), 5.30 then 6.45pm (bedtime feed), then df at 11.00/11.30pm. all just one side
