Feb '06 You know you've a 2 year old in the house when...

[EachPeachPearMum]

the TV remote is in the freezer, your car keys are down the loo, and there are little smears of food at knee height down each corridor!

Mine are all wired.
The only time the twisting thing is awkward is when its a strapless bra- the silicone grippy bits grip to you too much!

What age should they count at then?

csws- I have only ever seen underwired maternity/nursing bras in vertbaudet tbh- and they're french, so sizes usually small. I thought you weren't supposed to have wired ones for maternity/bfing, due to constriction of breasts?

Lalalala

No idea EPPM....but I am very impressed with anything ds says that I can understand tbh.

That's a widely believe myth EPPM (sucker ), but there's no problem with underwires as long as they are well fitting and not tight. Figleaves have some fairly big underwired nursing bras, but not quite substantial enough for me sadly.

that is really crap to find out now! After 3 years in fecking non-wired!

I just switched back to wired, and I feel like a different, unfrumpy woman! Someone (a man) winked at me today in a meeting!

Well, I can top that! I've worn tidy clothes 2 days in a row, and I'm going out with a man on Monday night

but is he DH?

Er, no. He's someone else's though

oooh- where are you going to?
(or is it a parents evening?)

Cheeky! We're off to get well and truely pissed. Or to the beach if the weather is clement.

the beaCH? aT NIGHT? weird!

One of my favourite things ever

IN APRIL???????

Why so negative?! Cant you picture the darkness, the sound of the waves, the wind, being wrapped up in warm scarf etc, with a thermos of tea and something alcoholic? Talking for hours, about completely non child-related subjects? Being a real person for a while?

All I can think of is the cold and the rain sorry

in my favour- it is absolutely bucketing down here, and the wind is howling down my chimney!

Sounds geat mrm, but aren't you quite a way from the beach?

Two more questions after relaying our bra convo to dh...

1. Do you do it up round your waist, or at actual bra height?
2. Do you take it off from the back or the front?

Only 45 mins to an hour away.

Er, bra does up around bottom of ribsish.
I think i take it off from the back, but now I actually have to picture it, I'm doubting myself Will try and remember to note what I do later!

Being a real person for a while sounds lovely but I'd rather be inside.

Bra does up round waist (I put one on this morning specially to check)
Taking off either undo back and take off through tshirt (preferred method here), or if actually undressing I turn it round and undo at the front I think.

We're going out on another galsses hunt this morning. Wish me luck....

Bra height, and back.

I'm assuming everyone here can get it off under top n out sleeve method?

MY child is clearly the most genius - none of this counting crap for him, no, he can spot the tiniest bit of "cockit" (chocolate) at 50 paces and have it in his mouth in a split second

Why didn't we go and drink on the beach???

Ah, ds2 has 'bobolot'.

Er, dunno Flame, why didnt you take me to the beach??!!

Am child free for 3 hours to go bedsheet shopping and get my threading done

Threading?

as in eyebrows??? which reminds me mine could do with doing

girls, do you think red hair will match yellow clothes/go ok?? debating going Red RED (2nd childhood)

I do mine up at the back here can't undo it one handed thou at EPPM.

I thought nursing bras were supposed to not be wired as well, damn myths eh. Can I ask what silly sizes peoples boobs went upto? as mine hit a whopping 42DD last time..... thankfully back at a 34DD now. Has everyone who BF had their boobs increase in size? I used to be a 34B prior to all this boob business.

DD2 did me a rousing rendition of Baba Black Sheep this am, she's getting the hang of incy wincy as well, not surprising though as both dd1 and I can be a bit chattery

I fancy the beach with some booze in fact I'd rather fancy anywhere with some booze and no kids for a night

I heard it rained a lot last night, dh rang to say he was soaked, the tent got soaked being put up and he was soaked. He rang again from Tesco carpark this am to say he was having breakfast in LRP kit and getting funny looks, but all his clothes were soaked and he was going to put up the tent properly this am, so lord knows how he put it up last night??? its only a small one 2 poles makes a dome thing??? poor ss who knows what fashion of rigging they slept in last night....character building I guess

I didn't get on here last night, as I tried my hand at paiting its not a masterpiece by any stretch, but was nice to have a play with some colours, I'm going to fidde with it a bit more tonight, and present it to a mate for her birthday, with some other stuff

Red hair and yellow clothes you say?

Yeah

Trouble is I've brought two lovely yellow T-shirts for this summer, plus a hoodie type jacket with out the hood, which is yellow and grey, so I was debating blonde or Red......(dh would love Red)
