This thread's topic is what size of nappies are your babies in? And how are the cloth bum babies doing?

Bry I hope you're spot on with the good news day. Was it maybe dairy traces in a stock cube?

Chasing good for you for giving your ex a hard time.

PR I hate that sort of dream - I think they're linked with stress.

Well I was half right about the second wake up - sure enough he wailed for a feed at 5am, I dashed in bleary eyed, wrapping myself in my dressing gown - a walk of 10 seconds - tops. And he'd gone back to sleep. Little bugger!

Stunt what a twat! Hope you survive the day

R slept 8-2-4-6 but dp got to him at 6so i slept till 8 :o

M did 8:30-2:30-7:45!! Woohoo!

Re. Next sale, it is definitely next weekend. I'm hoping I get another VIP invite so I can shop on Wednesday evening. Fingers crossed as M has a lack of babygrows in the next size up. Although the summer stuff in Next has been a bit lacking, too girly and frilly and pretty for me. I likes bright and funky

Can I take nurofen and paracetamol together? Got a migraine and need to attack it.

Yup chasing :)

Hallo. Morning lads and lasses.

Sun is shining.

P was pretty unsettled last night - don't know why. No biggy really. She was crying out in her sleep at 5am so I brought her in with us. Big mistake! "OMG! It's mum and dad! Hahaha! Dad has fur on his chest - he makes a fun noise when I jank it!" Etc

Anyway, she was back in bed by the back of 7 for an hour and a half so all better now.

We have a play date with the childminder this afternoon. Apart from that no plans.

Any teeth yet YW? Nothing here yet but lots of drool and finger munching.

Dream sounds awful PR. I sometimes have dreams which leave my stomach turning for days. I have to keep reminding myself it was a dream. Did you get to the market?

I found the Murray chat interesting. We had the match on last night when having our tea. DH mused at one point "tell you what. If he doesn't win Wimbledon this year I am going to shit on his golden post box"

Firm but fair I though.

Oh! And that is very cool PR. DH has actually seen Jarvis Cocker's cock. And Kate Adie's tits.

No I didn't get to the market. Sent dh with DD1 so I could clean and do laundry. Not quite done yet but I am putting my feet up while the floor dries.

Well you have to, don't you? Otherwise you would get foot prints on the floor.

I forgot to mention - I bought wine the other day and I got ID'd!!

Made my day.

Odd night, F woke and clearly knew I was in her room so shouted and shrieked for about an hour til I relented and let her sleep in my bed. Up at 5.20 but luckily dh had heard, as was awake having had nightmares (something in the water!?) and got up with both girls.

PR I am apparently entitled to 12 weeks a year parental leave - suspect they let me have this one as my replacement is there until August...hope you can channel the rage

Late to the party, but hi-5's chasing - hope you gave him what for.

Wimbledon...usually I love it but really haven't got into it this year, too much else going on.

Off to the library in the sunshine, and tonight my ILs are having a BBQ for their pearl anniversary.

Oh. Aaaaaand.

P is trying to pull herself up in everything. Including the cat.

Pass I have been ID'd fairly recently for buying paracetamol. I have wrinkles ffs. What 15 yr old has wrinkles?!

Bizarre isn't it BP?

This woman took. Good long look into my face before asking for ID. I have copious grey hairs, wrinkles and was buying various groceries along with my Pinot Noir. I can't imagine how many 17 year olds would have a similar shop.

O was up by 3 for a feed again last night, then up at 6. DP got up with him as him waking at 3 and 6 mean I get very little sleep.

Shame he was shouting at 7.50 'WHY WON'T YOU GO TO SLEEP'. O had screamed and whinged all morning since getting up. He was going to sleep, but then hysterical screaming as soon as put down. Told DP to give him to me, and I lay with him in the crook of my arm. He slept til DS1 woke him thundering about at 9.20. So now his naps are right up the fucker!

He should be sleeping through his first nap now, instead, he is crawling around my feet. DP is going to take him to the park. I want to go to the park. DP is moaning because he wants to go on his own. So I shall sit in the house. On my own. On a lovely day.

DP said I should go out on my own if I want to. Um, where? I'd be lonely and bored. Bloody men.

I thought I might hoover up and do some cooking, but you know what. FUCK IT! I think I might find a book to read or something.

Hope everyone else gets to enjoy the sun!

The house is like a sauna, but if I go outside for too long my hay fever flares up. DD1 enjoying it though. Currently nomming her first ever ice lolly.

Hate summer.

Plus it makes the floor dry too fast so my feet up moment was short lived.

I'm not in a good mood today.

All quiet here. all the boys in bed. Mummy in the garden. Feels a bit weird. Not doing anything.

I decided to try potty training DS1 again. We are having. Better time with it this time so I am going to stick at it.

O's pox seem to be moving along. He is still v spotty and getting a bit grumpy with it. We have had the air con on at night though And he is sleeping ok.

I think you need a good nights sleep pr the bad dream seems to have setup off on the wrong foot for the day.

Air con?

The DH earned another D by purchasing it the summer that I was pregnant with DS1.

Oscar with his dad, I've been to the hairdressers and now I have no idea what to do with myself.

Chasing my mum, dh and dsd have gone into town. F is asleep. Ditto.

I intend to go and lie in the sun and bask in the temporary silence and eat gingerbread men

I am sitting in the sun reading a magazine Migraine has been successfully attacked, thanks det

chasing Wimbledon final. Cheer on the French player.

We had a lovely day - bbq picnic in the Forest for my friend's dd's 2nd birthday. Proper idyllic with the big cousins swinging from a rope swing and the little cousins paddling in the stream :o R has just gone down in his cot for a nap and, as i did the housework before we went out, I'm feet up with the tennis. Might get to do some crochet too if mn doesn't suck me in

Sorry PR I'm rooting for Lisicki.

Sounds idyllic Pidj, I love the new forest

Piglet has partially lost her voice - a combination of a virus and all that screaming means she sounds like she has a 20 a day habit.

No thermometers in this house, but I know that it is bloomin' hot. Nonetheless, F, aka coldest baby in the world, still sleeps in babygro and 2.5 tog bag at night, and with vest & fleece blanket in the day takes after her mum then

Trying to do my hair for tonight and realising I am a rubbish female....
