Just a quickie.. Ollie is constantly trying to stand up when i sit him on my knee (i probably havent helped matters by lifting him up in the air..he loves it!) A friend said to me that bouncing them even gently at that age can damage their legs as their ligaments arent formed. I keep telling...

Me again! I have a wedding next week and my OH's sister in law was going to look after ollie overnight. Well.. it looks like they are gettin a puppy this friday (a staff). They already have a staff but hes old and im not too worried about him. Do you think i should just take ollie to the...

Hi All, Is it just me or does anyone else out there get really embarrassed when their baby screams?? I go to a postnatel group every wednesday afternoon and Ollie is a nightmare! All the other babies are quietly sleeping and Ollie is screaming blue murder. It got so bad today the HV offered to...

Hi All, I'm always a bit clueless with dressing Ollie based on the weather. I always feel like i should have a hat on him but its getting quite mild now.. Should he still wear one? Also.. should babies still wear vests in the summer? Told you i was clueless! :oops: Claire x

HI All, Ollie looks like he's been in a fight at the moment as he keeps scratching himself. He literally claws at his face when hes asleep. I dont want to put scratch mits on him as i want him to find his thumb so we can ditch the dummy (which is driving me insane). Im always filing them but im...

Hi All, When i go out at the moment i take a bottle of boiled water with the powder in a container and mix when Ollie requires a feed. Now if im only out for an hour can i make up the feed before i go and then just give it to him or is this dangerous. I always get myself in a right pickle as...

Hi all, Im dreading these as ollie had a really poorly tummy for a week or so after the first lot. is it likely this will happen again? are the 2nd lot the same?

Hi all, as the title reads really.. when did you introduce one and did you put formula in it (probably a silly question) Claire x

Hi All, I have the silvercross 3d and im using it as the pram. How long until i can change it to the pushchair? I would like Ollie to actually see things rather than looking at the sky. Claire x

is so much better!! Everyone always said that at around 12 weeks things will improve but i didnt really beleive them when poor Ollie was screaming every night. The change now is amazing.. i just raise him up and he burps and i no longer have him screaming every evening. Dont get me worng he...

Has anyone got one or had one? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, Claire x

Hello ladies, I have my lovely sling from Maria which is gorgeous. I'm putting Ollie in it now and then but i find it a little fiddly as he is at that inbetween size. I know when they are newborn they need to be in the frog position but Ollie is now getting stronger and he keeps pushing down...

HI All, I think ollie has a bit of a sticky eye (not bad atall but is a little runny like he has been crying from one eye) Im using cooled bottle water on it but i've forgotten if i should wipe it inside out or outside in?? Claire

Hi All, Since having Ollie i always worry about whether im doing things right (im sure you have all got that impression from my posts) People say that "you will always know what to do as its your mothering instincts" but if im honest i've had times that i've not had a bloody clue why he's...

Hello ladies, me again! :roll: As you may know ive been having a bit of a crap week. Well its not getting any better. Since Ollies first set of jabs hes had a dodgy tummy (sickness and diorreah) hes been clingy (wont let me put him down for naps) Hes been crying more in the evenings and hes...

Having a bad week.. Ollie has been a bit poorly this week and has cried a fair bit. I know its not his fault but when you havent slept the crying seems so much worse (im sat here crying) I felt things were gradually improving but now we seem to be back at square one again. I'm hoping its just a...

Hi All, I'm currently looking for a childminder for 1 or 2 days a week. Now i cant decide what to do. I live about 15 miles away from where i work. Should i get a childminder near my house, near my work or half way between the two? What would you do? Claire x

Well yesterday he projectile vomited twice and was crying and clingy all day. He was also straining for a poo for ages and then when he went there was loads. He was also off his food. :( I had an appointment at the docs to check out a lump on my thigh so changed it for him. The doc checked...

.. Hi All, My OH is trying to help out this morning and has made up a bottle too early (he's not due a feed until 11!) Hes made up the bottle using cooled boiled water and then added an extra oz of boiled water then formula. Will this be ok for an hour at room temp? Claire x
