Ooh a ff question Grin I'm using Hipp organic which seems great and comes ready made in 200ml cartons.

Hi minipie, I am a baby bore for sure right now. I think when dd1 goes back to nursery and I get the chance to go out and about a bit I may have more to talk about. On the subject has anyone seen this -

Great to have you back mini I was worried when you dropped off the thread so suddenly. Wonderful news that your DD is doing well.

T has decided co sleeping with mummy isn't good enough, he's taken to sleeping on my chest now instead. I think the more upright position is good for the sick avoidance though.

Thank for the formula responses, I am off to the shops tomo to investigate. I love that motherhood ad, DH was less impressed but think it sums up our current lifestyle quite nicely!

Pidj, I pm'ed her, will she give me an address to post it too?

Fish fingers and chips for dinner here, and no DC's to blame. DH isn't good at meal planning...

mini I've not had many baby conversations... but I've not talked to anyone since T arrived really! I hope not to turn into a baby bore, so am mostly keeping stuff off of Facebook, and only replying to direct enquiries about T from friends and family.

Strawb that advert is excellent :)

Pidg things will get better, just remember - "this too shall pass". Is your DH improving each day, or is it a slower process at this stage? Hope you get some rest soon.

Eggs all the biscuits in this house were hidden by DH while I was pg. Theyvw not reappeared yet...

congratulations minipie and welcome back!
vvery sad pidj :(

well we all seem to be in windy hell at the mo don't we. oh when does it pass?!

George has had a grumpy day after a relatively good night - and practically fed every hour on the hour, my nipples are killing!

stacks I know I over did it with all the desperate expressing and feeding in hospital and then trying to make too many gatherings etc in xmas run up - 28 days post cs tomorrow and I'm still getting bad pain days Hmm although it does come and go. I think when my uterus is going through a shrinking day it flares up again.

first day completely on my own tomorrow, no hv visits, visitors etc - I'm looking forward to it actually.

Yes, although it's probably best to pm her for that nearer the time - you'll have at least 3-4 weeks till the deadline Thanks

Thanks, Stacks, I'm just a bit lonely this evening. He's improving rapidly but has been very very tired this afternoon. So am i but it's cluster o'clock so i can't put R down and have a break, nor do i want to disturb his much-needed rest by going up iyswim...

I'm a baby bore Blush I wish there was an easy way for all of us to share photos!

We had gammon with red cabbage, carrots, roast potatoes and yorkshires Grin

Just had bath time with no crying even when I got him out! Have had more luck with the dummy today. Outgrown all up to one month grows Sad

Right got to get all the stuff ready for dd's first proper day at nursery tomorrow I hope no one is mean to her!

Make sure you look after yourself pidj you must be exhausted Thanks

The October group have started their own private Facebook group to share photos etc with just each other. (No-one else can see or join). Of anyone fancies that i can set one up if you like?

I'd love to join a fb group with everyone here, I am also stopping myself from posting too much baby stuff!!

Report
HoneyMumandSon · 06/01/2013 19:55

PM me your names for FB if you want to join and I'll add you to the group. Ive looked at it and can either make the group closed - where people can see the group exists bit not join it without permission or secret where only members will see it exists. I was thinking secret but let me know what you think.

Clarella · 06/01/2013 20:03

yes that would be a nice idea! I'm not posting any more pics on my own fb for a while as got a bit Angry when an old colleague shared my pic and she's public - can't work out how u stop that - but bit sad feeling cross as I love her to bits (surrogate granny) and she went a bit ott knitting lovelyooutfits for him.aibu? Im not too keen on my son being accessed by everyone.

I'm thinking maximum security honey but that's just me being edgy with all the ceops stuff from school

fb privacy massively confuses me these days I must be old and still don't get twitter

Pm'd you Honey.

Having trouble with ds tonight I've been feeding him for almost an hour but for the past forty minutes he's just been pulling away and pulling off, shaking his head but rooting and crying if I take him off. I've winded him and got burps and switched sides but no luck Sad

Spotty, I've had that for the last 20 minutes, turned out he'd done a poo Blush in my defence, he'd had one 20 minutes before that and only usually goes every day or two! at least he'll be easily potty trained Hmm
