Hey Betty are you in littlehampton? My ex boyfriend of 9 years was from there so we used to visit all the time to see his family. He went to the high school there but he's 37 now so a bit older than you x

 

[betty14]

Yes I am! That's mad eh, small world! There is only 1 highschool so I prob went to the same one!!

congrats to torz. hope we do get another BFP soon

amelia spotted us and came to say hi which was nice

the baby show was great but i felt a bit dissapointed as i think it was much better for the pregnant ladies, more talks and freebies and things to buy!

we didnt come home empty handed-we have a new dummy clip and ordered this nice print with his name on and dob, weight etc all framed up. also got the coolest thing, its not really ay good for most of you as you BF but its a teat you can steralise and reuse and it screws into the pre mixed cartons of milk. that will be really handy if you run out as all the supermarkets sell the cartons and you wouldnt even need to have a bottle just the teat in your bag not tried it yet though so may be rubbish but you could get 3 for £10 so not a bad price anyway.

hope everyone is well xxx

Hey ladies, the tears have stopped. AF was due on Monday but arrived last night, woke up in agony. Short cycle 25 days this month. Need to concentrate on this month. Next week DH is turning 30

 

[AmeliaLily]

It was lovely to meet you Anna, as soon as I saw the tall man with the red pushchair I knew it would be you!! And then I peeked at Marcus and recognised him straight away, bless he is cute x

I bought some stuff at the baby show, a few outfits from mothercare as it was 10% off, some of that massage gel (£30 for two tubes omg!!) and a burp cloth thing you can put your hand in. My friend got a baby monitor and mendela breast pump reduced so she was happy. It was weird to see so many babies, some were so tiny it makes me feel weird to think i'll have one of them in a few weeks eeeeek!!!

Sorry to hear you have been upset sara, I know it's horrible when AF turns up and you don't want it x x hugs xxxx

 

[betty14]

Aww glad you both had a good time Anna and Amelia!!

Anna that teat sounds good, you can buy cow and gate ones that fit on their bottles but don't think they are reusable so yours sounds good!! M

Amelia that burp cloth will come in handy.... You are team yellow right??

X x x

 

[Samie18]

How fab you bumped into each other!

I'm soooooooo pissed off at the min!!!! We arranged our Wedding date all around School hols to suit Chris' Brother n sis in law n Nephew as she works in a school and obviously for the nephew not to miss school......well they have been super quiet for ages so i text to see if they were still coming to be told they are not because they cant afford it now the reason i'm fuming is because thats the most stupid excuse ever because they won a substantial amount on the lottery so can more than afford it!!!!!!!!! I was gonna ask her to be my Bridesmaid along with his Sister who has just announced she's preggers (which i'm happy about) so they won't be coming either.
So now i have no friends coming as they can't afford it so no Bridesmaids but the little lady and chris' 2 nieces and i'm just a bit fed up coz had they said before we booked they weren't coming we could have booked differen't weeks for cheaper.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr people piss me offffffff

 

[Samie18]

Ok now shes changed her mind and it's not the money its that she won't take him out of school for one day.....one frickin day!!! Even though she said she would before we arranged it.... i wish she would just say she didn't want to come i HATE liars

 

[AmeliaLily]

Yes Betty I'm team yellow so I got a cream burp cloth, tho I would have loved to have got a pink or blue one!!

That's rubbish about your wedding Samie, can't believe they would let you book at an expensive time for them and then them not go, not surprised you are peed off with them. X x x

 

[hay246]

That's so annoying Samie!

Congrats to torz and another allIster without the l ha

[betty14]

Aww Samie that's awful, what is it with ppl.... Just selfish considering it wad planned around her!!!

Amelia super exciting! So you have any inklings??

X x x

 

[AmeliaLily]

The first 3 months I thought it was a girl and the second 3 months I thought it was a boy and now I'm undecided!! All m cravings indicate girl but I had no morning sickness which indicates boy! I'm so confused I just wanna know now!! Lol

[annanouska]

i think its terrible samie-your much kinder than me id probably have had a right ol' paddy!

I have a feeling its a girl amelia but you never know with these things! my friend had her little boy 14 yrs ago and it was an emergancy c section. they took her to see the baby after (she was GA) and she said it wasnt hers as she was 100% having a girl and this is a boy! apparently she wouldnt believe it for ages that she had a boy!

just wandered if anyone can give some advice on weaning? obviously im thinking way ahead but Barbie said must not wean until 6 month plus as it can cause IBS and lack of calcium etc. Yet i got given some samples yesterday of baby food (hipp organic and plum) and one is 4 m and the other 5 m? also i got a magazine on practical parenting or something at the show and in there it said let baby decide and if they are ready at 4 m then they are ready.again barbie said babies will watch you drive or clean the house etc but doesnt mean they are ready to do it so you cant go off what they do??!!

confused.com!

hope everyone is ok-ohhhh btw-how cool is milton steralising solution? never used it or needed it but the weird teats for cartons had to be steralised in solution. you can leave it in the pot you mixed it in and use for 24 hrs, so i did the teats and have put a cloth in it and keep on donning hte marigolds and wiping things down LOL the bathroom, kitchen, mocrowave....ive become really obsessed with not wasting things so i love it I feel im recycling some how

 

[hay246]

Haha Anna

Amelia it is great having a surprise I loved it

Regarding the weaning.. You have just got to do why you think is best for baby. You are his mother and you know best. I slowly started about 18 weeks. As long as u don't start anything before 17 they say. And I just started him on the fruit pouches.

Xx

 

[Samie18]

Do as you please with weaning. All health professionals will state 6 months because they have to promote exclusively breast feeding for 6 months but most babies are ready earlier.
I started at around 20 weeks with just aptimil porridge for brekkie then gradually moved up. She had tasters for weeks so lots of stuff got wasted but now she is an absolute pro and will eat ANYTHING and i mean anything hehe.
There is reasearch that says the longer you take to wean them the harder it is to get them to eat so there are benefits to both ways i guess but Marcus will lead you.

We have always used a cold water milton steriliser so they only need changing every 24 hrs, it's so much easier!

I'm guessing boy Amelia, i still think your fab for keeping team yellow the suspense would have killed me by now lol

I'm just too nice Beth i just laid on the guilt trip saying it's fine i understand you don't wanna come i'm just dissapointed because i wanted you to be bridesmaid but i'll just have to make do with the kiddies haha it didn't make a difference though.

[betty14]

anna i agree with the others, i think Marcus will lead you, anything after 4 mths is fine...

samie dunno what truth there is to this but i read that there is evidence that if babies are exclusively milk fed untill 6 mths they are starting to lack nutrients because the milk just isnt enough on its own

either way i think babies tell you when they are ready in their own way!

i am getting the annabel karmel books soon to start swatting for when the time comes
