Brooke is now 10 months and not sleeping through. She used to sleep through until she was 7 months but it all went downhill from there. I think it started when she got a sickness bug, cut her first teeth and moved to her own room. She went from stirring for her dummy to full blown wide awake for...

Hi doll, I've been back at work for about 6 weeks and I love it BUT I'm very lucky in that I don't miss a second of B in the day cause I'm working in the evenings. It does mean I see Al a bit less but, when I do have the night off we really make the most of it and make the effort (previously we...

Hi gang, I LOVE this! Not on any contraception either - the pill messed with my head so we're using condoms too. Got my AC and my OV tests but I got a bit scared about using them this month as thought I would get too obsessed so might start next cycle! Sunny - I had about 4 28-day cycles, it...

Yay Pos! We'll all be preggers near each other again hopefully! We were thinking of trying sooner but we've decided to have the next year to get straight with money, get the house 100% sorted as there will deffo be no extra money when we have another baby! So excited to try though! xx

Hey you! Well we won't be trying just yet - this year is about getting straight financially BUT, with me seemingly only OV-ing 6 times a year instead of 12, I want to get my body sorted as far as possible to maximise chances when we do try, in about 12 months time :-) How are you doing? And...

Body-wise that is! My periods were up to 60-days apart before I fell pregnant with my daughter and they are slowly slipping back into this pattern. My last period was 50 days ago and no sign yet of the next one! I have just ordered a big pack of OV tests and i'm going to get some Agnus Castus...

We do a mix of both and tbh, I think all the Mums I know do this. Main meals are spoon-fed with "finger-food" snacks in between like toast, fruit or a sugar-free biscuit, rice cake etc From experience, before 8 months they don't really "eat" the foods they feed themselves. They will take it...

Oh wow this is amazing news! I remember reading your pregnancy journal and your birth story with Ella, can't believe you're having another! Makes me brooooody! x

She's so so beautiful, can't believe she is 6 months old! x

Brooke is really hit & miss. First she dropped her milk, down to 10oz a day some days but ate breakfast, lunch and dinner. Then she started teething/cut her tooth and dropped her food and has now gone back to loads of milk - 22-24oz a day, PLUS she's gone back to waking in the night for a...

Haha! No I meant, I wouldn't mind having another girl - not desperate for a boy if that makes sense, would love either/or. Yes Jayne, lurk! The way I feel at the mo I don't know if we would be able to stick it out until she is 2! I am sooooooooooo broody! x

Which feels very soon considering my little girl has only turned 8 months today...! But we're going to wait until she turns 2 next August, then crack on and hope for the best! Would love either another girl or a boy, just hope we're lucky enough to be blessed with another. So excited! x :dance:

I had it and it broke, had to send it back and now have a gorgeous buggy from Kiddicare. It's OK, quite bulky and feels a bit flimsy too. From experience I'd say get another x

Thank you ladies. I appreciate the responses. It's just a tough week and I'm struggling a bit. Even hubby agreed it's the worst she's been since she was born. Hopefully if it is teething, the tooth will cut soon and if she is just feeling under the weather then in another day or so she will be...

We just did it until she wriggled free. We would swaddle her in the blanket, then tuck another light blanket over it and tucked it under the body if that makes sense? When she started to wriggle out of the swaddle, we switched to sleeping bags. xx
