stunt I was just thinking this morning about packing up the jumperoo as E hasn't been in it for a while. Then I realised I actually have to put her in it, she's not going to climb in herself! She sits under it a lot. Perhaps she's trying to give me a hint. I will try her later with it and decide what to do.

And re the gift for DH, I once sent DH a bear dressed as a nurse to his work as he had been feeling really poorly and struggling with work (he's never ill). It happened to be around the time that he was ordering me birthday presents online so when he opened it he thought it was something wrongly delivered for me. She shouted very loadly in the office (thus drawing a lot of attention to himself) "what the fuck is this stupid bear, I didn't order this" before he read the card attached and saw it was from me. Did mmake me chuckle but I think he got the piss ripped out of him at work.

I have my fingers crossed for you gt

Nice one on the lunch mm

We give vitamin D drops until 2yo when I remember

I will be trying to get both mine over to cows milk in the next few weeks and will be adding to formula. It's a different taste and texture, as well as content, so takes some getting used to and I was advised to do it gradually so as not to scare them off it if they don't like it right away.

They had custard for lunch here. Yum. N I have Jaffa cakes. So mixed the two together. Not a bad combination at all!

GT you are ace! And I love how he's still FH!

Just had garage around to asses car park damage, broadband up, wedding finally getting booked and off swimming with my gorgeous boy. Good day.

Mw did a monitor thing. Apparently I'm having a few niggles niggles. Fucking niggles. I do t want niggles. I want contractions. Real life contractions.

FH is finally hear. Better late then never?

Off to have a bath to help my niggles move in the right direction.

GT good luck! so exciting and loving the live birth thread. Don't worry niggles will soon be contractions and then it will all be a blur and you'll be off in your own little world and when you finally come out of it your baby will be here! (and we all want to see pics!) sending good birth vibes your way!

Sending contraction vibes GT!

I think YW said this not long ago, but crawling is fun! Oscar loves to chase me and be chased

chasing yeh until they crawl over to the wires and pull them out the wall. Time and time and time again

F is walking! He can do 5 or 6 steps to head for something he wants, but only when he wants to and definitely not for a camera - haha.
How long does it take from this stage to walking confidently?

Bath didn't work. Calmed niggels down actually. But starting to feel them again now.

Dinner is lamb hot pot n strawberry yoghurt. Not as exciting as my lunch time improvised dessert

Mum n sis are bringing lo too see me in a bit. And bringing me some eggy bread

Hmm blood tests came back a d my bile acid level has gone down?!
A bit confusing as I didn't know it could go down. N making me thing the high level was an error?

But induction started now so can't stop.

Are you in a different hospital than before gt?

I made some corn bread to go with the Thai sweetcorn soup I made. Is yummy. But have just eaten loads and feel massive and leaden. So my Zumba session will come in handy. (As long as DH gets in on time)

Crawling has now become an absolute nightmare in the Fairy house. The sooner he can walk the better I feel.

Different hospital to last time. Didn't like postnatal care there n the lack of bF support. This hospital is pro bf baby friendly. So hopefully can bf the bump when he eventually arrives.

Fx gt

R likes to cruise round the outside of his. Dj booth i bought him the bruin musical activity table from toys r us and will sell the dj thing on soon.

A quiet boast if i may? Dp cooked his celebration dinner tonight - last day at Cunt Central - and i noticed a receipt from Morrisons. 6 months ago he had to abandon the trolley and come home from there because he was overwhelmed by everything. So I'm very very proud tonight. And i just heard the cork pop on the Muum we've been saving

I hate the putting everything in mouth stage.

Arrived at nursery to find LO laughing. Yay!

That's great pidj what progress. Enjoy your champers.

Formula is fine for vitamins Pennie as long as they're getting around a pint a day. Any less and vitamins are recommended by the NHS.

Pikz I love the way he is still FH too
I reckon he will always be FH
you are funny GT

gt my friend gave birth today. Now I can concentrate on sending vibes to you.

O is still very poorly. I hate fucking ear infections. Need to read back, I have no time nowadays.

Champers is lush, hopefully i can raise a glass to GT and MiniGTII soon

Enjoy your evening pp you both deserve it.

Off to wiggle!

Brilliant pp here's to you and vvvdp

My GP suggested I join the local zumba class sophia

I dare not.
