Chocolate mouse. Twat. I'd kill him. 
So glad DP is doing this with me. I'd never ever manage otherwise.
I've just had grilled mushrooms and cherry tomatoes with fresh basil on top. Fucking lovely! I know it's late. But it was that or more jaffa cakes. Fecking starving!

Evening all, I've been at work and having read the thread have promptly forgotten everything 
Chasing you know what you need to do, and we're here for when you do it My children's centre are fab for stuff like this, really nice ladies with access to all kinds of resources. Could you go to a group and just have a little chat with someone after? They could help you plan, and to P you'd just be doing baby stuff...
R and dp went to talk to the antenatal group this evening, charmed and terrified the lot of them by all accounts

I think size 14 would easily fit a size 20 in. Easily!
O is also sporting 2 wet patches on the swaddle VQ I couldn't face taking it off. It's only small. The swaddle is 0.2 tog. It will dry . If it isn't bothering them, leave them be I guess.
I'm covered in baby sick, and I'm not complaining, am I?!
He also woke with wind earlier. He's never done that before. I now know how frustrated you feel VQ. Another fucking reason added to 'why I wake up'. The list is growing!

I put off giving O the pepti jr because I didn't want it to be CMPI.
I am not looking forward to the nightmare future eating. I suspect his is fairly mild, so obviously hoping he grows out of it.
But in the meanwhile, just :(
I am very grateful that DP's mum will be having him when we are back at work. I'd worry so much if he was at a childminder or nursery, that he would be accidently given food that made him ill/upset, or that he would get another babies food he's ace at that already and nom it before anyone could stop him!
MIL is having her other grandson, who is a definite lactose intolerance. So I suppose it will be easy for them both to be together! The only thing is, I know they keep trying him with unsuitable foods. So I think I might have to give her a list of what's okay and what isn't (in terms of processed or packaged foods). I don't think she would be offended. She seems very proud of how I mother O, so I think she would respect my wishes.
If it does become a bigger issue in future, I suppose if I was really worried I could send him to mums school again. There is no way anyone would get it wrong there . But fuck, that school run again? For another 7 years. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Detective that dress is only available up to size 14. Fuckers! I can only begin to imagine what could fall out of it.
MM only saying it as it is 
Pass you are funny
Lily your little one will be having the appropriate help from the earliest possible opportunity. That has got to be a good thing x
Fucking nightmare of an evening here. DD2 still unwell and not settling. Sodding cough. J also decided not to settle so they have only just given in. I am pooped. He puked whilst being winded and remained asleep. I have mopped it up and the sleeping bag is not wet through, just on the outside. I did not have the heart or the energy to wake him to change him. I do not hold out much hope for sleep tonight.
Welcome back Izzy!
What sport are we partaking of tomorrow?

Sorry Stunt I meant that the GP would think it had only presented now if you go now iyswim and would think it odd to see at 6 months.
Good luck with the gaviscon - if it is CMPI he'll be a different baby on meds, and trying gaviscon will be the first step to getting the right mix for J. I know it's not nice having to give your baby drugs every day as it makes the diagnosis real and made me 
but (fingers crossed) happy baby = sleep for Mummy! He will grow out of it but there's some great meds for making them comfy in the meantime.
I've been avoiding upping J's meds as I just want him off omeperazole sooner rather than later and being 'normal' but he was getting more and more uncomfortable and I've realised I was doing that for me not him - so I upped his dose in line with his weight gain and he's much happier. Bad mummy 
MM you are young and gorgeous but as Pass says you only realise how great your figure was, what a tosser you wasted your youth on and how bad some fashions were until c 10 years later!

My mouth is still agog. I don't think I have ever been agog before.
