Frus did you go on ingender? I went there to get them to guess the gender of kitten, I love it, I still like going on now guilty pleasure I want another baby

Wow I had the most amazing dream. I dreamt that we hired a nanny for 2 days of the week to look after bpear and clean. She worked 7-7. My family were really supportive about it and everyone said I deserved a break. Nice dream Grin

Anyway, in the real world bpear managed to not throw up Calpol in the night so we had a better teething night.

Bring ~ FX prune juice works. I really need to buy some too. I think now that bpear is eating again we're heading in your direction Hmm I feel sorry for them when they plop out reindeer droppings!

What is this gene site you speak of? Sounds intriguing!

OMG. Just tried clothes shopping with bpear and DH. Needed a new top for 1st girls night out top that fits now odd body shape and I've returned with a jumper and a headache. I'm a mummy, I can't shop under pressure Hmm

Pear, you can never find anything when you need to only when you can't afford it!
Ha ha you should here what some of them do to sway, it'd blow your mind! We always dtd every other day which would be what you'd do for a boy but clearly that's not the case Grin
It's just called ingender pear, type it in google, it has a gender dissapointment but but the bit I use is gender prediction where they look at 12wk scans and predict using a nub theory, it's actually very acurate though x

The juice worked! She only drank a few sips of it but there definitely was not a little olive for a poo this morning. She seemed much happier as well. Although she woke up 3x last night So tired.

Glad baby pear kept the meds down and was a happy camper. And wow, you should totally make that dream a reality! Maybe an Au Pair from Finland or something like that for the summer?

Haha. I like the ice cubes in the pants.

Shopping with kidlets is a nightmare. Hate it.

Are you diluting the prune juice with water or giving it neat?

bringonthetrumpets · 28/02/2014 22:53

Diluted it about 50/50.

Bpear is not a happy bunny Hmm his top tooth has popped through and it's causing all sorts of niggles. He either has a cold or he's bunged up because of the tooth. Oh and he was up all night constipated. Joy Confused

Gave him Lactolose with apple purée and we had our first normal looking nappy this morning so one problem down...

Isn't it lovely when you cook a batch that they enjoy?! I cooked carrot and lentil soup this morning and bpear wanted seconds. Made me feel happy Smile

Urgh! Am at DNiece's first birthday party. It's like MN bingo! Cards addressed to 'Princess DNiece', fruit shoots... It's like living in RL Nethuns! Can't wait to escape! There must be 30 people, mostly children, in a tiny house! Anyone want to come break me out?!

bringonthetrumpets · 01/03/2014 13:48

Hahah Agnu. I just got a mental image of you sneakily mn'ing in the bathroom and sending out a beacon like an SOS call. I hike up my judgy-pants pretty high at events like that too Wink

Yay for happy baby with food, Pear!

I gave M a little taste of kefir. LOL, the look she gave me was priceless

I could not be further away from wanting to go out tonight if you tried. I'm cold and moany and I just want to stay in with a glass of red and my DH. I feel totally rubbish that none of my clothes fit me. I don't even know my own body anymore. I don't want to rush around like a loon to get ready. Is it normal to feel like this? It's just a meal with some mums.

peardrop2 · 01/03/2014 17:15

It does worry me that I have so little energy and I only have 1 Blush
