I'm the Easter Bunny
My nose is cold and runny
Don't think it's funny cos it'snot.

Hi all. Had a FANTASTIC day out with dsis, her dd and our mother at a family park. ds1 now in bed, should be asleep, but all I can hear through the monitor is "tractor, cows....sheep Baaa....tractor, green tractor, red tractor, good fun!"

Seem to have missed lots of personals, sorry.
Thanks for the advice on car seat, have gone for one heavily reduced on britax, should fit ds1 for another year before he grows out of it!

The wedding sounds fab, you'll have to be like UD and post on your wedding day to let us know how it goes

Flakey skin - I got flare up of eczema on my hands when pg, a bit better since ds2 born but still there. I use steroids when I have to ("vetsovate"...so guess where I got that from?!), emulsifying ointment when I need a real goo-fix, E45 other times.

Arghhh, Jacob still being really difficult with feeding. He is only taking on average between 4-5oz 6 times in 24 hrs - is this enough????

He cries at every bottle and struggles whilst you are feeding him. He takes 3oz no problems and then starts fussing, if I then try to wind him he gets in a right paddy and won't take any more of the bottle.

I just don't know why he has started doing this?? There is no explanation. Feel really frustrated

Lizz, I have really dry hands from all the nappy changes etc, don't, but don't have any tips other than putting E45 on LO helps both of our dry skin

UD - I had no idea that babies could get teeth so early. Good luck with the BF and teething. Ouch!
Wilkie - didnt eat worms, made flapjack instead & am doing ironing now.....interesting life I lead!
I'm ironing up a load of 3-6 months clothes, they look huge, but the 0-3 ones are getting a bit tight now.
Also - unrelated completely, but has anyone else found they have a 'scabby' hand/s since having their babies. I seem to have developed a nasty skin complaint all over my right hand and partly on my left. Its gross, and its getting worse. Not quite ezema yet, but very like it. Any ideas?

Shimmer - very worried about DP pooing on his clothes (isn't he toilet trained yet???? ). We rae going to CP with my parent and have a 3 bed cabin so J can have his own room. We used a discount code PSB7 when we booked which gave us 25% off - might have run out now but this is the site to use to find other promo codes.

UD - OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! A tooth - how fab

Hattie - added you to my MSN - we may as well give up on the thread and just MSN

LTH - I am intrigued as to your RL name now???? Mavis? Betty? Iris???

Lizz - hope you didn't end up eating worms

Well, we have found a FAB black Astra 53 plate with tinted windows (me is blingin') that I think we are going to purchase Very very excited Wilkie here!!!!!!!

Yes, if not they can look a bit tatty. I wondered when their season was, must get on to a florist soon.

A mate of mine is getting married on the 21st April and she is having anenomes. You have to be careful of whether they are in season or not apparently.

Lovely pctures, Laughalot, you look so happy. What were the flowers, are they roses? I can't decide whether to have a coloured or white bouquet. I love anenomes but not sure they'd make a good bouquet.

Dragonhart - just looking through the old posts and saw one from you about feeding bras. I sent the answer to Shimmer as I am a div and got the wrong person. (sorry if I've confused you shimmer!)
So, feeding bras. Well, they are never going to give you as much uplift and support as a normal underwired bra, which is why you need a decently fitted one. Dont guesswork it, as too small in the cup and you can get mastitus and too big in the back and you'll end up with saggy tits. When you are feeding you'll never get a bra which keeps your boob up and perky. Thats what your hand is for. Do you remember that Channel 5 programme featuring a woman following the baby routine we cant mention? Well, I am sure she either had teeny tiny boobs or a very light baby, as there is no way I can feed my little chubber like she did hers! Good luck!
