YW I also remember detective whining ad infinitum about night feeds

[StuntNun]

It was a local boutique thankfully not expensive lingerie shop Pikz, there aren't any Bravissimo branches in NI. She didn't really have a big range so I bought the two that fitted the best.

Don't forget the new thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/postnatal_clubs/1693077-November-2012-They-WERE-sleeping-what-happened

[TheDetective]

I typed a reply, pulled my shit together, and deleted it.

I think we all moan about the night feeds VQ I don't think I'm alone in that one!

Those who were looking for buggy bags can say although bright red the kiddicare ones are uber cheap and brilliant.

[Elizadoesdolittle]

Yay for new bras stunt I really must get myself a couple of new nursing bras. Hadn't really planned on ebf for the foreseeable future but since it appears I will be I want to get some pretty bras! Think I was a 32h when last measured gulps I hate my boobs though. I find it makes bf in public more tricky than those with small boobs. I used to have small boobs, always wanted bigger ones. They I discovered beer in my early 20's and they grew and grew! Bloody things.

[TheDetective]

That's the one I am going to orderpikz!

Is it sturdy?

[Pikz]

Det yes and I've actually ordered another to put buggy in as used first one to pack in Moses basket and stand and carry cot for travel system. Far cheaper than go quality storage bags!!

[TheDetective]

Fab! Pay day wednesday, will get mine ordered! I'm getting the double buggy bag, have checked out the folded dimensions of my pushchair and it fits! Excellent!

I might also get another one too then if they are good, as I'll need to take a few bigger baby bits possibly! Might take his bouncer and playmat, plus steriliser then!

[Pikz]

You could fit a couple of bodies in the Double one Detective it's huge! I am so impressed for the price.

[ValiumQueen]

Humble apologies if I have upset you detective

[TheDetective]

Sorry, just having an oversensitive day I think.

[TheDetective]

The nap didn't happen. He keeps waking himself up. He has been asleep since 2.15, but every couple of minutes cries out waking himself up. He is clearly annoyed at being awake, and still tired.

I've had him on me, in the swing, back on me, and now in the car seat.

He read my post this morning clearly .

DS1's latest money-making scheme is a lemonade stand in the front garden. I gave him the start-up seed money to buy four lemons. He made four quid and is off to the shop to buy more lemons. He didn't like it when I asked him if he had any grapes though.

So who's finishing this thread then? Or are we having a free-for-all?

[TheDetective]

Waddle waddle waddle.

DS1 found the duck song of his own accord the other day. I stopped mid step when I heard it blasting out the laptop!

[TheDetective]

pikz I have a couple of bodies in mind for them.

[glendathefedupwitch]

stunt he'll be the next Alan Sugar!!! We have the duck song at every opportunity - it makes Dottie giggle!!

Spent my day packaging and posting bits on eBay which wasn't worth the time or effort I don't know of its better to sell stuff separately for a pittance or in age appropriate bundles???

Headache still not shifted - so hope it's gone tomorrow - being on a hot ward is no fun with a stuffy head!!!

[PetiteRaleuse]

DD1 is going through a another Duck Song phase. At bed time.

Right, less than six hours my time til sweary Wednesday and oh just sod it. Fucking cunting flu buggering up my back and neck. Wankering winter and its twatty illnesses.

Oh, and why do toddlers have to touch everything they see. She knows I'm not on top form and is abusing her power. I am surrounded by dvds and bits of lego. Burglars couldn't make a bigger mess. So I tell her no, and she turns round, wiggles a forefinger and me and goes 'non!' And laughs and does whatever the fuck she wants anyway.

[ChunkyChicken]

PR my toddler says "Alright!!" in a really exasperated tone when I've told her off. AIBU to admit I want to smoosh her face (not in a good way) when she says this??!!

[horseylady]

I feel the same way about the wonder weeks.

I was chatting to a lady at a baby group in a pub about weaning. Her ds older than e by a couple of months. She started at 5.5months. Her baby was a month early and she expected to be told to wait till at least 6/7 months. Interestingly she was told not to delay weaning as while physically he may be smaller, socially he will develop at a similar rate to a baby born full term. Regardless of being born a month early or not.

This paragraph may not make sense. E very upset and full on screaming half way through!!

[ShellyBobbs]

Sorted out a shit load of Tommy's old stuff today. Am going to stick it on my local facebook sale and swap rather than shitty ebay. I feel like I'm a bad mum for not playing / holding / feeding him constantly today like normal, I don't think I'll ever get rid of mum guilt!

[ShellyBobbs]

I wasn't whinging then, I just read that back and sound like a whinge arse. anyway, bathtime in the Bobbs household.

[applepieinthesky]

Yay we have milk I found some at a larger Tesco in the next town so bought two. What a relief.

shelly I have also been sorting out clothes. We were going to save them for our next baby but they're taking over the house already so I've been going through them and taking photos today.

[PetiteRaleuse]

DH late back from work and am out of paracetamol suppositories so just gave LO a dose of nurofen poor baby she's so whimpery and sorry for herself like her mummy yesterday

DH has bought more of the usual stuff today but have no idea when he'll be back. He's due to pick up supermarket shop on the way home he'd better hurty I want my cookies and my pringles.

[ValiumQueen]

I have been trying to find local selling groups on eBay and joined one, which turned out to be Stirling in fucking Australia! Not so local then. I am searching under names, is there another way?

[PetiteRaleuse]

After selling a bloody expensive coat on ebay for a euro am just going to freecycle all my baby clothes. With the petrol to go to the post office I work at a loss. People want something for nothing, fine. Not going to bloody iron it all though.

Am in a really bad mood this evening.
