I know!

cazboldy · 19/06/2008 20:14

no NL course you haven't upset me! just wasn't sure what you meant! Maybe I am just dense............

Dooby yes come to Suffolk and then we can see you too!

Oooggs - Very disappointing!

cazboldy · 19/06/2008 20:16

Dippy can i borrow your hubby while he is in the mood?

( for grass cutting obviously )

I have a garden like a small field that needs doing

I have my smear tomorrow oh joy of joys!

Bet you all really wanted to know that!

geordieminx · 19/06/2008 20:16

CAZ - Meant to type tendancies or something similar but I couldnt spell it properly. I'm sure your Shetty is lovely, I just meant that some of them cn be bad tempered...

cazboldy · 19/06/2008 20:17

oh and I fibbed to you all earlier Molly is actually 23 lbs and 2 oz....

cazboldy · 19/06/2008 20:18

That's alright i won't take it personally!

How are you and C?

StealthPolarBear · 19/06/2008 20:18

T has hopefully reached the lardy heights of 19lb

geordieminx · 19/06/2008 20:20

C is 25lb - the bloater!!

StealthPolarBear · 19/06/2008 20:21

T has stopped eating - again!

NorthernLurker · 19/06/2008 20:23

phew!

No what I meant was that it is very annoying when people who don't understand animal husbandry fail to acknoweldge their lack of knowledge and apply their 'standards' to what are normal farming practices. Wasn't there a thread a while back where somebody went on and on about the 'cruelty' involved in dairy farming - I think you posted very eloquently on the subject? That was the sort of thing I meant to reference really.

Dippy - well done dh My dh NEVER mows the lawn - he thinks I do it better

Oooggs - you can ask me for name advice - just tell me the names of your dcs first Still so embarrassed about that!

SOL - hope your girls are both better soon - and you! Whilst we sharing tmi - I've been having a 'period' type thing for about 6 weeks now on and off - mostly off thankfully but I do keep getting an unpleasant shock, laying in supplies then not nneding them for a few days, then back to the shock. It's a good job I am not ttc - I wouldn't know where to start Now that's what you call TMI!!!!

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 20:26

NL - he is very cheeky imho

NorthernLurker · 19/06/2008 20:27

I've told him he will have to learn!

geordieminx · 19/06/2008 20:34

C is the same SPB today:

5oz milk 6am
Breakfast - nothing
8oz milk 9am
Lunch -1/2 jar {{{whispers}}} baby food
1/2 satsuma 2 rice cakes
3oz milk afternoon
Dinner - a couple of spoon fulls of mash potato, a couple of spoons of spaghetti (tinned } and a 1/4 of a fish finger
9oz before bed.

He just doesnt seem interested - its really frustrating as every meal time is a battle of me trying to distract him with toys while I attempt to shovel food in - he's wise to it now though and just scoops it out of his mouth and throws it on the floor.

NorthernLurker · 19/06/2008 20:38

GM - sounds like he's having a good amount of milk and that will keep him going. B has no milk other than two bfeeds a day - she just never took to drinking it. This week she's eaten well but last week she made a huge fuss if you went near her with food - for me and nursery.

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 20:38

Ignore. Ignore. Ignore. They'll get it eventually. xx

PillockOfTheCommunity · 19/06/2008 20:39

buggeration
my mobile has been on the way out for a while but tonight it just switched off completely. GRRRRRRRRR
I have 2 spare phones. One doesn't take o2 sim cards, only Tesco. The other I can't find the charger for. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 20:39

My girls never had milk after about 7m.

cazboldy · 19/06/2008 20:42

Oh yes NL I remember that - it really annoyed me!

Molly has had

a bottle
a banana
a toasted teacake
a jam sandwich
a packet of skips
a packet of chocolate buttons
a yoghurt
another bottle
tomato and cheese pasta bake
angel delight
about 4 cups of juice

and she will have another bottle in about 10 minutes when she goes to bed

NorthernLurker · 19/06/2008 20:46

Caz - glad you remember it- was worrying I'd made it up!

B has had:

b/feed
porridge with pureed fruit (Hipp not homemade!)
whatever she had for lunch at nursery - I'm a bad mother and can't remember
packet of pom bear crisp things with the big girls after school
scrambled egg and a few beans
slice of toast
jar of baby food pudding - yum
b/feed

Dippy - I remember your girls were non milk lovers as well -it comforts me

StealthPolarBear · 19/06/2008 20:47

Well then it's a boy thing
I do think with T it is all related to milk - he doesn't want toast, bread or potato, he wants milk!! Which isn't helpful when he's at nursery. The mursery manager spoke to me today and said they are getting v worried - apparently she's never seen a baby eat so badly!!

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 20:47

Phoebe had three bowls of hoops for breakfast, a cheese sandwich, a bananananananananana and 2 yogurts of lunch and spag bol followed by Angel Delight for tea; and numerous cups of juice.

Just thought I would join in

My older 2 girlies on the other hand have eaten 1 bowl of cornflakes, half a cheese sandwich and some toast Refuse all cooked meals

NorthernLurker · 19/06/2008 20:47

Oh and POTC - you know where that charger is don't you? With the passport.....
