Well done LK,
KTE sorry to hear you're now feeling a bit under the weather too :(
Florabean - poor little Harry :( I hated Jacob's MMR too, he didn't cry at the time but he had a reaction to it and it really knocked him for six for a couple of weeks afterwards. Sounds like Harry will be fine though.

I haven't had Jacob weighed since a couple of weeks before Christmas when he was 26lb 5 must pop him on the scales soon to see what he is now.
I do wish he would start attempting to walk as he is soo heavy and my back is actually killing me carrying him around :( It worries me a lot, as he doesn't even try to pull himself up, so he doesn't cruise and he wont stand if I hold his hands. He walks on his knees but that's it. When I spoke to the HV she wasn't worried and told me they don't worry until 18 months but it's hard when I go to Mums and tots and Jacob's the only baby of his age now that isn't walking. :( Also people can be so insensitive with their comments and are always asking is he not on his feet yet and when I say no they look utterly shocked and make me feel like crap as if it's my fault. I always try to make a joke out of it but it does really upset me :(

I was at the Docs about me this morning as I've just been really run down and my periods are so heavy it's scary, so she's referred me to get the merina coil fitted and took bloods to test for anaemia also. I just hope it does sort things out for me as I seem to be so lethargic these days and no matter how many hours sleep I get I still feel completely drained.

Anyway sorry for the moan, hope everyone else is well!
 
Thanks guys.

Craftymum - Don't let them get to you. He will do it in his own time.

Well my guess of 22lbs was almost spot on....22lbs 1oz hehe. Its so weird not being able to just call my mum and tell her things. Can't wait til they get back from Oz in 4 weeks.
 
Thanks LK - I do try but it's hard, nothing more competitive than a room full of Mums lol

That was scarily close with James' weight!!
 
Lol yeh. I'm always a bit competitive with my little sis cos there is only 6 months between James and her little boy. I'm so unmotivated today! James is sleeping and I should be doing housework but I just can't bring myself to do it.
 
Fraggles: Aww very cute little grows, he's going to look so adorable in them :cloud9: Hope you manage to catch some :sleep: We took Chloe on a test run in her new wheels, be fun to see what it's like on a normal work run, she looked rather confused she wasn't in the pink thing :haha: :thumbup:

Flora: Hope Harry isn't too badly affected by the jabs :hugs:

CraftyMum: Hope it will sort you out so you do feel better :flower: Sorry to hear people are being a bit odd about Jacob not walking, I can imagine its a bit worrying and frustrating but so long as the HV is happy :flower:

Chaos: Hope your good :hugs: :flower:


Best go, its taken me forever to write this, even with Nij here Chloe just wants me. :wacko:

Take care all :hugs:
 
LK im depraming (is that even a word) :haha: I just got a new double so the singles are being culled.
 
I have a Mothercare My3 and a Quinny Zapp (had 2 but sold 1). Wasn't allowed any more but I have my eye on the iCandy and Bugaboo lol.
 
A Luna :D :winkwink: I never ever imagined I would go through so many prams! The Silvercross 3D, Chicco Lite (old school Chicco pram, now more like the Gracco Mirage), a Hauck (awful) and the 70's floral Pink mobile which is an O Baby :wacko: :haha:


Wow Chaos, must have been great to see your Sis, and now your Nan. Hope your all having a fab time :flower:
 
Argh major jealous moment here.

I'm so fed up. Work are stressing me out so much right now that my mouth is full of ulcers. Have one right where my front teeth meet together so keep biting it which is so painful.
 
Ive had to sell my soul to get it, must admit I couldn't manage 2 babies without a double. I tried but was crazy going out with a pram and a pushchair.

:hugs: sounds like you need a break from work LK
 
I really do but can't. We already have several people on long term sick meaning I'm having to pick up extra shifts.
 
fraggles- how the heck did you go out with both a pushchair and a pram?? (trying to mentally picture that one :haha:).

Our garage has turned into a stroller parking lot- no room for the car anymore :blush: In my defense, the quad stroller does take up a huge amount of space and the double is also my bike trailer. We left our "good" stroller at the caravan for using in the summer and just have a cheapie in the trunk of the car. I nearly bought another "good" single for at home last week but came to my senses :wacko:

LK- definitely sounds like you need a break from work hun! Take care of yourself :hugs:
 
Kaites while im still healing from my section I go out with family/friends so I delegate the pushing of prams to 2 others :haha: Soon as im healed i'll use a carrier for small trips but im hoping the double will come into its own on shopping days and day trips to places like the beach/zoo.

Must admit the car looked funny when we went for the new pram as we had 4 adults, 2 children, 2 car seats and a pram and a pushchair in the car and then the new pram and a load of shopping in there. I think we pushed the capacity of the car to the max :rofl:
