Please give your baby's favourite foods so we can get some ideas from each other.

No thoughts on car sophia but I had a hire car the other day and twas a VW touran and was very nice indeed.

Pidj Sad but at least he has shown he can do a longer stretch.

PR brrr...was cold last night here but not that cold. I think it got down to about 5. Lovely day now though emerging.

Bry that's so funny, I love when they mishear lyrics. Dh has never grown out of that trait.

Good luck to those with imminent arrivals of ILs.

Better night last night. Feeds at 11.30 and 3, and settled easily in her cot between times. She had a lot less wind too, I think blueberries cause her wind...according to my spreadsheet anyway

BigPigLittlePig · 25/05/2013 08:39

sophia I like to think everyones snoozing in bed fat chance

GTbaby · 25/05/2013 08:59

Does a lil jig for YW Shock
And a bum shake for the slightly better nights.

Rant BiscuitBiscuitBiscuitBiscuitBiscuityesterday me n H kept snapping at each other. HE was in a bad mood. so I told him to go out to pub once LO was in his crib , as he is usually ok once down. Asked him to be sensible n not be late. (We have had quite a few issues with his drinking recently). He txts at 12 n tells me to go to bed as its going to be a late one. I called him n ranted about how he was being U. Well he got home at 1. Not too drunk. But I asked him to sleep on sofa as I didn't want a shit stinking loud snoring tossing n turning night. And he's still down stairs. So that's ok to. What's really upset me is I found a lighter nxt to his jeans just now. For someone who stopped smoking when I got pregnant, n last known cig was Xmas I'm upset he smoked last night. AIBU?

I fed at 4:30, dp got up with him at 5:30 so actually i was, bp Blush

I have a hot knife stabbing the back of my throat every time i swallow and the fluey aches. Will get checked out on these if no better as it feels like tonsillitis Sad

PurplePidjin · 25/05/2013 09:07

On these? On Tuesday ffs!!

ChasingDaisy · 25/05/2013 09:24

Not a bad night here, 8-2-5-7. Can feel a lump under his gum so am hoping that a tooth is finally imminent.

Donnadoon · 25/05/2013 09:30

GT YANBU.....But...you sent him to the pub....and maybe it goes with the territory. Pick your battles chick and try not to stress too much for both your babbas. Still Envy your preggo. Smile

ValiumQueen · 25/05/2013 10:17

Sophia the Touran is lovely but I do not think it works as a 7 seater as there is no space when the seats are all up. But I guess that goes for most unless you go for a mini bus. We have never used ours as a 7 seater.

PetiteRaleuse · 25/05/2013 10:20

I've not been snoozing in bed. I have sent DH and DD1 out shopping (it's mother's day here tomorrow) and have been cleaning.

Is FB safer to talk about work stuff? Can anyone outside us see what I write on there? Can anyone outside the group see I am in the group?

Izzybuzzybuzzybees · 25/05/2013 10:43

Bath was lovelypr super hot and I even shaved my legs! Figured I better for swimming tomorrow and also therapist might not wanna do a massage on my stubbly legs! Dinner was lovely. Film alright. Now expressing milk before going to bed for a good ten hours! Woofuckinghoo!

Sophiathesnowfairy · 25/05/2013 10:49

My 7 seater use will be occasional, I will prefer one with roof bars already on though then we can get a roof box if need be.

pidg hot water is bizarrely always nice on a sore throat such as yours. A friends mum to,d me once, it does work. Hope you feel better.

I don't think anyone else can see our group on fb as we are a closed group. Xx

Sophiathesnowfairy · 25/05/2013 10:49

I think.

Izzybuzzybuzzybees · 25/05/2013 10:55

Oops managed to post last night's post again!

I had a fab sleep. Am just expressing milk before I pack. Quick question. How often should I express when I'm away from J? Would every 4 hrs be ok?

Mum txt. J took bottle and went to bed at 9.30pm. Slept till 1am but refused bottle. Woke at 3am and took 3oz then slept till 8am where he took 6oz then mum took him into bed with her and he slept till 10am!WTAF?! Best night in like forever! Will see how he it s for DH tonight and consider moving to bottles at night. Although it's so much easier BF especially at night.

pr no one on fb can see the group or that your even in it so would be safe and a good idea to post for advice I'd think

ValiumQueen · 25/05/2013 11:05

Izzy if there are bottles at night it needs to be from someone other than you. And use this to your advantage. It will not take long for him to realise that if he wakes he does not get what he wants. Which is clearly you Smile and it will not hurt him.

Is everyone one enjoying the sun.
I'm waiting for FH to get up so I can have a shower Angry
I wana go out! Confused It's a nice day. He has 5more mins till I wake him.

ChasingDaisy · 25/05/2013 13:23

I am buying a jumperoo today. Is the Fisher Price rainforest one quiche approved?

Was having a lovely day out in town and only went and bumped into the fucking in-laws Angry. Resulted in argument with P. Am on the verge of telling him I can't do this anymore.

Dixiebell · 25/05/2013 13:56

Do it, Chasing.

DH is upstairs moving the cot into his Teddy's bedroom. A bit Sad. And also slightly concerned that it will make sod all difference to his sleep, but make me have to traipse across the hall and sit and feed him in a cold chair instead if warm bed three times a night. Hmm.

Chasing I wouldn't say anything till you have what you need to in place to leave if you need to. Your and o's safety is paramount and in this instance I don't think talking will help.

PurplePidjin · 25/05/2013 14:14

5 minutes, gt? He'd have been kicked hours ago in this house!

jumpjumpjumpjumpjumpjumpjumpjump

Little dude napped for 1 1/2 hours and I'm still not at the bottom of my hot lemon and honey Hmm boys off for a walk now so I'm going to snooze on the sofa with the cat!

BigPigLittlePig · 25/05/2013 14:15

Big fat hugs chasing - the offer still stands xx

PR fb should be secure, I know when I was waiting for acceptance to the group, I was dismayed that I couldn't see anything, not a sausage stalker alert

GT hope FH sorts himself out, not very fair on you. I would be inclined to let the cigarette go. DH stopped smoking after 10 years when I was pg, was fucking hard work for all involved, and gradually has started again since Christmas. It is his way of de-stressing though and does avoid arguments, which there would be plenty of given the level of sleep deprivation.

Dixie that's what worries me about moving rooms too!

Lovely sunny day here, but F is feeding to sleep now so am pressing F5 lots browsing t'internet. We went to the park this morning, she was a bit "meh" about the swing, preferring to lick it rather than actually swing Hmm

ValiumQueen · 25/05/2013 14:30

I agree with Bry Chasing. The first he should know about you leaving is the empty house. I think we all know what would happen of you did say you were going to leave.

J is a lot brighter, but still not eating much, and vomiting. Skin already much improved thank fuck.

House ready for inlaws. Almost. DHs priorities were making bread and brownies. Mine, after caring for the kids obviously, was scrubbing toilets and making umpteen fucking beds. Just what I need.

Sunshine and BBQ on Costa del Fife Grin Grin Grin Grin Wine Wine Wine Wine

Evilwater · 25/05/2013 15:23

A bit blowy on the coast, but a nice sunny day. N is asleep at the mo and I'm just chilling.

I'm hoping to take n swimming in the local pool, I'm trying to figure out what to take!

chasing big hugs.
big hope you got some sleep.
