Cupcake, love the furniture.

Cheryl, sorry Leo's having a tough time of it.

Bailey, we have a mirror that lets you see the baby from the rear view mirror, I take it they don't sell them there? It's useful to glance at her and I don't find it overly distracting.

MrsD, hope you got some relaxing in along with all the chores.

Morning ladies,

Cupcake that furniture looks lovely! I'm not very good with anything white, it would be scratched and scuffed with me in no time!

Amy I was looking for a mirror but theres nowhere in my car to attach it coz they normally are attached to the back seat head rest, and my cars so small it doesn't have head rests in the back lol!

Cheryl aw poor Leo how's things going with him? Is it the colic that's causing problems?

How's everyone else today?

 

[AmyB1978]

Bailey, I believe there are some smaller ones that attach to the window, I just don't know how safe they'd be if, God forbid, you were in a crash. I'd worry about it falling on baby. The one I have, because it does attach to the headrests, actually buckles around it so I know it's not going anywhere.

 

[AmyB1978]

Cath, I see your stalking! I miss you! Are you still doing the little gemz at all? How's not smoking going? How did the trial go, I think it's been long enough you'd be done now?

 

[baileybubs]

^^^^ yeah I agree with Amy's questions and sentiment Cath, we miss you!!

Yeah I'd be worried about it falling on her or something. But I have seen these cardboard type mirrors but they aren't good quality mirror so I don't know if its worth it. I don't ever really travel very far anyway with her on my own, the furthest I go is to my parents which is about a 45 min drive so I should be ok without one, just need to get used to it.

Ooooh I'm so excited, I've applied to volunteer for Age UK and to become a dementia champion for Alzheimer's society and I'm really looking forward to it! I'm hoping that it will all look good on my cv and give me an advantage in getting a job working in a similar role in supporting older adults!

 

[AmyB1978]

Bailey, that's cool, something you will enjoy and the fact that it might help you get a job is a nice bonus! As for the mirror. I am sure you will get used to it. I got ours when she was just home from the hospital and still prone to brief apnea episodes. I was taking her to a checkup, and it was only 20 minutes away, but I freaked the entire time and decided I needed to see her face. If we hadn't started out with it I don't know that I'd miss it now... If that makes sense.

 

[baileybubs]

Yeah that makes sense. I think it's just coz she sleeps in the car so the fact that I can't hear a sound from her worries me a little! She's just such a quiet baby!

 

[AmyB1978]

Makes total sense that it would worry you but I am sure you will get used to it.

Morning ladies

Poor Leo I hope something works soon to make him feel better x

 

[MrsDuck]

Bailey that's fantastic, when do you find out if you've been accepted? xx

 

[baileybubs]

I'm waiting for an email from age uk to meet and chat to the volunteer coordinator, and for Alzheimer's society I am going on a training course at end of June to become a dementia champion and then I organise my own sessions where I can inform people about dementia and how they can help.

 

[CherylC3]

Hey well he's been good today it's the colic but I think the dent inbox mite be working he got weighed he's 11lbs 10 already.. Thts great bailey such a nice thing to do...x

Well we hav booked a holiday for next year for me Leo hubby and my parents I can't wait 2 wks in Portugal...x

 

[MrsDuck]

Bailey that sounds great x

Oooh nice, I love booking holidays, when are you going? x

 

[CherylC3]

Aw this time next year I can't wait.xx

 

[cupcake1981]

Mrs d have you thought anymore about the amazing holiday you and hubby are gonna take? Best get one in now before you get preggers!

Cheryl yey for holiday, I'm jealous! Can't see us having one for a few years now!

Bailey great news on the volunteering! What kinda night did Millie have? Sorry if you said.

Amy how are you today? Again sorry if you said but my brain is scrambled egg these days!

Sorry I've been quiet today was in meetings most of it and then got home and had loads to do! Including writing out my mat leave letter! Yippee! Have put that my last working day will be 16th August and then 2 weeks leave b4 mat leave! Countdown!

 

[baileybubs]

Cheryl - yay on booking a holiday!! We can't afford one for a few years (well we could but we want a house and to get married so we have decided not to). I love Portugal, been there twice, it's always nice there!

Mrs d - yeah I agree with cupcake get a holiday in now coz you will be preggers soon lol!!

Cupcake - yay for booking mat leave!! How exciting, I bet you can't wait!
Millie had another good night, I am so lucky! She's probably gonna get her own back when she's a toddler and she'll be terrible lol, but for now she seems to be ok sleeping from about 10pm til 7am, sometimes if she goes to sleep earlier she'll wake at about 2am for a feed but goes straight back to sleep usually (I've jinxed it now lol!!).

I've had this sudden burst of energy and zest today! I think maybe I'm finally recovered from labour and the c section and my body's now saying "right lets get back to business" lol! I've got a meeting on 2nd June about volunteering, I've been out with Emilia to my workplace to visit my colleagues, and I'm starting making plans for most days now as I don't feel like I need to relax and take it easy as much.

Oh and my sofas are coming Thursday yay!!!! All we need to do now is sort something out for our old sofas as they are un-sellable coz they are so dire so we need someone to help us get them to the tip (which no doubt I will have to organise coz df never organises anything!).

 

[cupcake1981]

Bailey I can't believe how well she sleeps. Can she go that long without a feed? Are you gonna go to some baby groups and meet some other mummy's?

 

[MrsDuck]

Cupcake I don't know about amazing holiday, I'd settle for any holiday haha
Yay for sorting your ml, let the countdown begin

Millie you good girl

Amy how are you doing today and have you found out what Emily is allergic to yet? x
