i've found some fab bodysuits SOKL, wrap ones so they fold over instead of going over the head, have one from Boots, one from Gap and a couple from H&M

Evening Ladies. Hope everyone's weekend was good.

Just got back from family wedding in Bristol...crazy weekend, great to catch up with the family though. Kids were brilliantly behaved I'm so proud of them both[soppy mummy emotion]

So agree with you SOKL with the bodysuits if I get poo on it I take it down rather than up over her head.

Hope you've sorted the mice out Ellie. Agree with others we're always here for each other. I'm so glad I found this

Sorry can't remember anything else. I'm very tired, didn't go to bed til midnight, then Izzy woke up and fed she didn't settle til 1am, then I tried to sleep but DH was snoring and of course being at a B & B I couldn't escape to spare room then Izzy awake again at 6am and had to be out of the room by 10am, early night for me tonight I think.

Love to you all xxx

I'm a big fan of nightie's (I think they're called baby bundlers). No poppers for night time changes

AngeG · 03/06/2007 19:46

Danny was given yet more clothes today, from the newsagents where we get the weekend newspapers (it's easier to get others near work). I was glad that they gave us 3-6 months, from John Lewis as well (good quality, I would guess not the cheapest though I've not eyed up their baby clothes).

I can understand what you say about your twins, Oooogs, I've no intention of dressing Danny in much other than babygros for a while yet. To be honest, most of my favourite baby clothes are the designs for vests and babygros/sleepsuits. My mum didn't bother with anything else until any of us were toddlers anyway, and I'm a lot older than my brother and sister (my parents divorced after I was born and all my siblings are from their second marriages - a brother and a sister on each side) so I remember how they were dressed.

Ange, lol at "if I poo"!! Ange, I have also been pulling the bodysuits down, but sometimes they are a little bit too tight for that.

Ellie, thanks for the tip re bodysuits. I think I am going to investigate.

Quick question (anyone would think I had never had a baby before!!)
If your lo poos mid-feed, do you change them straight away or wait until the end?

Sorry, another poo question!!

EllieK · 03/06/2007 21:11

wait til the end

OP posts:
EllieK · 03/06/2007 21:11

CaptainDippySuperBoobs · 03/06/2007 21:12

Ooooh, can I be controversal and add something to the mix ..... I don't actually own any babygros ..... imagine that!

LOL, ellie - Have you considered hiring a hitman!!?

EllieK · 03/06/2007 21:13

for the mice or matthew's dad?
wouldn't need one for him, i can just show her the texts and watch him self destruct .......

OP posts:
AngeG · 03/06/2007 21:14

No babygros

Generally wait til the end...unless it's an explosion...also depends whether she will fall asleep at the end and whether I want her to, although Izzy generally won't poo and feed at the same time
