Galen started nursery this morning. I'm happy he is there but also sad as its too quiet around the house and I miss his smiley little face and laugh. So I am :cheer: for him (and me) but also :( I don't know what to do with myself. I've done the shopping, washed up, put laundry on, made bed...

Its like nails down a blackboard to me :shock: LO has four teeth through. Two top, two bottom. And since the top ones came through all he does when not yabbering, chewing, drooling, laughing, crying, eating, drinking or yelling is GRIND THEM TOGETHER It makes me cringe every time. As its...

So, LO has HAIR. Which OH and I love. It is mad HAIR. Not just short lil locks but full on curls and squiffs out to the side. I trimmed the back a while ago as where it had thinned out with his sleeping on it he had a semi mullet going on :shock: This is about 8 weeks ago, maybe more now...

:D:D:D:D My agonising over nursery place, well, I've come round. They called earlier and he can start next week. Monday afternoon and Friday morning. So OH, Galen and I are going to visit Monday for half an hour - an hour so OH can see it and Galen can spend time there. Then he'll go Friday...

This was mentioned in a TV show we just watched and so I Googled up on them. Memory quilts, made from your LO clothes once outgrown. I've only found US based places and sites so far but am looking for a UK one. I can't sew and asking me to use a sewing machine is like asking me to pilot the...

Thought I'd post this here as more people are likely to see it. I've just applied, no idea if I qualify but I thought there was no harm in asking :) Anyone else applied for this and been succesful? Or turned down? Or still waiting to hear back? Maybe its a total crock but it only took me 2...

Not by my choice, but his :( BLW is going great. He eats 2 good meals a day, breakfast and tea and often has a third, lunch, but this is not always given. I don't really give snacks in between as he does not look for them and if he is hungry or thirsty I prefer to offer him the boob for now...

BBC reports (if this has been posted elsewhere feel free to delete) Church gives birth to a baby boy TV presenter and singer Charlotte Church has given birth to a boy. The baby arrived just after midnight and weighed 7lb 5oz. Both mother, 22, and son are said to be "doing just fine"...

I am a SAHM now. I plan to go self employed probably and do some website stuff and remain at home caring for Galen and if second baby comes along then :) However, Galen is, to say the very least, an alert, inquisitive, bright very active child. Has been since very young. The past few weeks all...

They have up tp 60% off on their winter range atm :D I just ordered a heap of stuff for next winter. Some great sweaters and tops for less than half price. I always stock up for the following year and find their sale prices better than Next and others similar in price and quality. Loads left...

I'm hoping someone out there can shed some light (Squiglet if you are around as I am sure you've talked about this somewhere before). I want to cut back my calorie intake now LO is coming up 8 months and has dropped one or two boob feeds now he is weaning. We've evened out on breast feeds now I...

:? :? :? :? :? I've had a stinker of a cold and have been pretty run down with it the past 3 or 4 days. But yesterday and today the drop in my boob supply has been noticeable. Galen hasn't really dropped a regular boob feed since we began weaning and I've not had any problems in the past...

After six weeks in temporary housing we can move back into our house this weekend :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: Just in time for our first Christmas with Galen :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: I've not been able to do much Christmas shopping, nor sent cards to people, let alone done a food shop as the...

Talk about pissed off :twisted: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: I love the show and watch it every week with OH. Semi final should have had four couples in it, therefore making it a bit fairer at least. As it is, no matter how much...

I'm only asking as we are thinking about this :lol: I saw my MW the other day and she was really chuffed I am still BF'ing and doing BLW alongside this now. Being the progressive forward type of MW she asked about us trying for a second baby in the near future. She said that I could breastfeed...

Go figure. OK so Galen is teething atm and stirs a bit because of this but I've noticed this past 2 weeks that if OH makes a noise at night it disturbs Galen. Same with me the past few nights because of my bad back. I could not help but wince or scream (quietly) when I moved wrong in bed and it...

Had the op on my back Friday last week. Now have a mass of stiches down my lower back and top of bum :shock: Am recovering well from it but lo yesterday while trying to get down to the floor and not stretch my stiches I put my back out.. badly :wall: OH had to do more or less everything last...

OH got it as an early Christmas present and due to having had my op today and now required to rest for 48 hours at least I've been busy reading it. And what a great book :) Informative, well written and I'm pleased that it takes the time to explain all the reasons why weaning before 6ish months...

I am writing this from hubbys precious MBP and temporary accomodation (a lovely harbourside 3 storey cottage) where we have been since yesterday afternoon. Why? Because of this..... We were just putting Galen to bed on Saturday evening when I noticed the water rushing along out back of...

I've posted in the BLW blog about what Galen is eating now. He's had carrot sticks, broccoli florets, roasted butternut squash, parsnip and sweet potato. He's also had pear sticks, banana, kiwi and stewed apple. He's also has some plain natural yogurt which he loves. Sometimes I mix banana or...
