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

The cm has turned out to be a fucking cuntknobbing arsebadger beaver squidgeling passive agressive twat. She would get on likea house on fire with someone pr knows.

I am incandescent with rage

Sorry fruit - didn't refresh the page due to the blinding rage. That's awful news

Afternoon all :) thanks for the food info :) I try to make sure e has what we're having but I like pouches as backup especially when I'm pushed for time. The 130g ek pouches are not enough now, he polishes off two sometimes and pudding. I wouldn't want to jinx it so I won't tell you he's doing well with solids and I also won't tell you the routine is working today so far because then it might go wrong besides the real test is tonight I guess!

bplp hope the cheeky cow gives you the rest of what she owes you! Also glad the settling in session went well :)

izzy that's crappy :( lovely of your sis to take him though so you can have a break :) hope you have fun Friday too :)

fruit that's awful :( I'm so sorry :(

bp what happens if she keeps ignoring you? Who can you go to to get the money back?

Complaint is done, peeps, with the rage speeding it on its way through cyberspace.

So sorry Fruit I am guessing there is nothing they can do to treat it? Life can be so unfair.

Well, I was in bed from 9.30 to 11.30 last night. That was all. J just will not lay down unless he is drunk on milk. And then he is woken by wind, even after being winded and held upright for 30 mins. The only place I can settle him for naps etc is in the pushchair or bouncer.

He is doing a wee bit better with solids but I will be eating all the purée myself. He will only accept chunks, so today has had toast and kiwi for breakfast, and Soreen for lunch.

We have both finished the antibiotics and our chests are better now. I am going to try taking the antidepressants at night as I am just beyond groggy. Still not heard back from my boss. Makes me really angry.

Well done BP. I hope you did not mince your words!

She has charged me for the full week, saying that she didn't look after her on Weds/Thurs because F was unwell. WTF?! I think I'll be the judge of how unwell my child is, plus, iirc, you said she wasn't unwell, it was just the screaming that was making her nose run!

Anyway. Have send the complaint, sent a final email to the passive agressive witch, and will have to write off the remaining £, and do some extra shifts at work.

Haven't stopped shaking with anger yet.

No I did not. The " key on my laptop must be nigh on worn out, as there were lots of she said "blah blah" and her mother said "blah-dee blah"s.

VQ if you would like me to write a ragey email to your boss, just give me the nod

Had the bear weighed today he's 16lb 4. So just edging above the 9th centile which is fab as he's always been between 2-9th. For his prematurity he's 95th centile so clearly solids are agreeing with him. Mindst since we got home all he's done is poo! So he might be down to 15lb now.

BP what a witch!!!! I hope you put the agreement in writing? If so I'd text her that she's leaving you no choice but to get the police involved if she won't answer your calls - it's not really any different to taking £120 out of your purse.

So I've cut all my hair off. What can I say - having a quiet day and too much time on my hands... DH will have a surprise when he gets home from work.

He can have chemo and radiotherapy I think?? The 3 years is with full treatment, I personally think he will refuse treatment though, in which case I think he has 12-18 months. I could be wrong though I wasn't really listening to the details when dp told me.

VQ, Fruit cross post - wah oh it's just not fair.

Bloody hell the nerve of her pig

fruit that is horrible news. to you and DP.

vq it's about bloody time you and J had a break from all this shittyness!

No words fruit just hugs.

VQ I feel like a cheat now M is sleeping through. Is there anyone who can have him for a night? Can you book yourself into a hotel for a weekend and get your DH to sit up and take notice? When DP took over every other night here it completely changed our world.

Still no scan for DP before August but doc is leaning towards Meniers disease. Bollocks, there goes his career....

YW can we have a pic????

And bplp I am raging on your behalf, Shall we compare angry letters? I still haven't got the balls to send SIL hers....

vq glad the chests are better. He could be feeling destabilised by all the illness? Plus we're entering the 9 month growth spurt, confusing independence and attachment problem stage.

I'm soory you're having trouble with your boss. That sucks. Bloody rude not to have been back in touch. Could he or she have holidays as a passable excuse?

MM burn the letter and let the ashes go to the wind and feel your anger dissipating with them as they go. #frickinghippy

Will put pics on FB once I wash the greasy mess. I'm currently pinned by a snoozing bear. Haven't had this pleasure in ages - its lush. He just woke for a sec, looked at me, smiled and nodded off again.

Ahhh crap PR we're nearly 9 months. Something to look forward to. I know he's very securely attached at the moment as we're pretty inseparable thanks to BF but I guess its not the time to plan a night out. Bugger. It's so sad that most employers maternity packages mean women having to return to work during the peak of separation anxiety.

Fruit I am so sorry

VQ am crossing everything for a break for you

Am currently in the mood to post L on eBay

Defining Mummy moment 1001, on spotting mystery brown stain on my trousers (poo or pureed prune!?) I sniffed it to check. Prune yey!

I've also managed to dye my hair avec enfant without too much twittering / running from shower to check on him

so I think I've missed two threads!

hope quiche are ok, big hugs to many after skimming fb. you're all amazing

I'm riding the waves of a wobbling thyroid and trying to work out if have pnd but actually starting to think dh does (if that's possible??!) and he's putting his anxieties onto me. (lo v under weight at birth, not now but not a fatty, lies between 9th and 25th dh lo obsessed with his feeding and 'nutrition'. lo determined little monkey and insists on blw) got back in touch with perinatal mh team but not sure I need more than a bit of hand holding

lo is great, goes down in own room and actually starting ti manage sleeps of 2-3 hours in length there but then I have him in with me after about the 2nd/ 3rd wake up - which is going really well actually, doesn't pester for feeds all night nor lies awake, just cosies in till morning. unless there's ishoos and we muddle through on pillows, being rolled over etc. burps and wind still seem to plague him so I'm accepting it - we all.need sleep!!! he still can't roll so I don't think he'll sleep well till he does!

kit day, met my new children - covering 2 classes, one class of 6 with severe asd.(gonna do hannen and pecs pidj) swimming x2 a week and trampolining but actually means less planning and no need for me to ever go to the gym!

only puzzle is will I need to pump? determined to keep bf though it seems noone ever has while at work?! think will have to be at 3:15 when kids go!

am I weird??

hugs to all

hugs fruit, I'm so sorry

oh pidj is dp back at work? that's great!

oh and any advice? lo will only eat hard stuff he can crunch. so nairns oat cakes and biscotti and cucumber.

what else can I try?!?!

Running behind due to crappy signal in the wilds of Scotland, just wanted to shout out to Clarella when I went back to work when DS2 was six months I didn't pump, just fed him before and after nursery. Your supply can keep going on two feeds a day so long as you don't mind them having formula while you're at work. To my mind much easier than having to find time and facilities to express at work.
