Hi everyone
Jac hope little Jaqson is feeling better. It really does make you worry when they are ill like that. I still have nights when I go in to check on Josh and I am down the side of the cot listening for his breathing.
The update on my little man is that having conquered walking he is now definitely progressing on talking front. It is amazing how you begin to recognise words and dh keeps saying to me "what's he saying" - half the time you are going how I am supposed to know. Well we can say the usual mumma, dada, nana, but have now progressed to juice (would know that wouldn't he), bye bye, hi ya and thirteen (it's the high pitch on the last one that he likes) to name but a few (oh and he says night night =, so cute). We can now reach to open door handles and the window sills so all ornaments are now definitely going out of the way. My neice wrapped him up yesterday in a blanket and had him flapping his wings like a bird and he just laughed and giggled away - bliss.
As he is now 15 months will be looking to his 18 month assesment - anyone know what they check here. Am I right that they also get the start of the MMR at about 18 months (think we have decided as this can help prevent meningitis - the strain from measles - that we will be going for it).
Well girls must go - take care everyone - hope all the wee ones that are ill are feeling better soon.
Oh and by the way it is Pxxxing down here - some roads starting to flood but thankfully not as bad as yet as some places where you are (mind you the north got a bad flood yesterday afternoon)!!

Well done Jaqson! What a clever boy!!!
I take it he's feeling a bit better.
I was reading all the posts about checking on bubbs to see if they're are breathing (cos i do it all the time! It was murder driving down to Cornwall cos she was in the back and i couldn't see her) and so i had to go into her room and have a peep. Usually i just stand in the doorway and watch but today I got the shock of my life. SHE WASN'T THERE!!! I dashed up to the cot and the little monkey had wriggled up to the top end and was lying across the cot, hidden behind the cot tidy. My heart didn't half skip a beat! i couldn't stop laughing then!
Gonna keep this short and sweet cos i've vowed to tidy my house today!

this is just a quicky because, like Gill, I have set myself a few tasks while Ben has his nap!
Vicki - HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
Hope you have a lovely day.
big hugs to Jaqson and Anthony. Lisa I remember you panicking at one of our meetups in Edinburgh because you had come into contact with a girl with chicken pox while you were pregnant. That seems like a very long time ago now!!!!!
Ben - HAPPY OUT-AS-LONG-AS-YOU-WERE-IN BIRTHDAY with love from me and my Ben.
Congratulations on the crawling! Go Ben, Go!
We spent a few days with Deborah and Max at the beginning of last week and Max must have taught Ben how to crawl while I wasn't looking. We have some lovely pics of him trying hard on Saturday, but collapsing in a heap - then we have a movie of him taken on Sunday when he finally crawls across the kitchen (to chew my mobile phone). RESULT
Incedentally re-8/9 month checks, I wouldn't hold your breath girls. I was in and out in 15 minutes, my HV ticked boxes willy-nilly without actually observing Ben doing anything other than just about choke on the very small, dirty cube she put in front of him to see if he could 'rake' it. Ben being Ben had it in his mouth in under a second and had me convinced that he was going to swallow it! Then she had the nerve to tick the "discussed safety issues" box!!!!!!!
Not impressed!
Barbara - Hi there! What a chatterbox Josh is becoming! Lovely the description of him being a bird - awwwwwwww. Tell me your house is all finished?

Not started the housework yet, Jac! Just had a play with Becca, given her her brekkie, watched Storymakers and The Shiny Show with her, put her in her cot then come back on here!
Glad Jaqson's a bit better, but off his food!?! That is a shock!
Good luck with the fanzine. Rebecca's birth was supposed to be announced in the Wigan Athletic programme but they ballsed it up.
Flo - hope you're getting on with things better than i am!

evening all,
vicki - happy anniversary, i can remember last year, and you went away to that hotel.
jac - hope jaqson is eating well soon
well every week the girls grom our antenatal group get together at someones house, today was my turn, and one of the girls came, she had her son 1st 20th jan and he started crawling last week, i can't believe it, madison is doing what i call her snail impression in her cot as she sleeps on her tummy and curls her legs up under her, then she stretches out and manages to get from the top to the bottom of the cot in no time at all, scary!!!
Can i ask, have any of you been to tumble tots or jo jingles i have put madison's name down as they can start at 6mths, but wasn't sure if she was a bit young.
Hope all of you are well.
take care
love shelleyxxx

Hi everyone
Just a quickie as gotta have an early night, driving up to Preston tommorrow for a weekend with the folks, love them to bits but just know that my Dad will do everything he can to knock my routine out and be Amy's face all day every day! Never mind, was gonna come home on Tues but may make it Mon. Dad's already started about her slepping arrangements, he wants her in their room but if she waked he'll have all lights on and when I get back she'll still think it's playtime in the middle of the night, so said she was in with me and he started - think this weekend is time to lay a few ground rules - we're off on hols with them next month so would rather get the way I do things clear now than spoil our hols battling with him.
Last time I was there I could read your posts but couldn't reply, so hope evryoen has a fab weekend - praying for some nice weather.
Love sarah x x x
PS - went to see a 2 week old today - how gorgeous x x

Hi girls
Cant believe i posted a long post last night asking for advice on weaning , only to find it has not come up!!!!!! I was expecting loads of replies today!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have read the feeding link on here and lots of other books etc but am still unsure as to how much to feed Joseph at 1 sitting ( he is currently having 3/4 teaspoons). Also when do you move on to 2 meals a day, how much milk should he be having, how do you fit it all in with just 4 feeds etc
?!!!!
Please help as none of this is helping my stress levels!!!! Fortunately he seems to love baby rice and has taken to it straight away!
For all those i spoke to in quiz, i have made an app to go and see the docs.Thnks for listening to my moan.
Sarah - if you log on again and would like to meet up when you come to Preston, i am around and very close so let me know.
Not up to writing much more.
Night all

Flo - Hello. Lovely to hear from you 
Congratulations to Ben crawling too Clever boy It's so cute though isn't it. I've decided that when we go on hols now I'm going to get one of those sun tents for Ben to spend some time in and put a beach mat out in front of that. Hopefully the confines of that will stop him crawling off onto the sand too much. Was really, really hoping he wouldn't be quite so mobile until we got back, but there we go I suppose velcroing him to the towel is still an option 
Jac - Glad to hear Jaqson's on the mend.
Love

Hi all
FC - My thoughts are with you today, wishing you the strength to get through it.
Woppa - Thinking of you also.
Sara M - Lovely to see you posting again! Missed you!
Jac - Have a safe journey to London.
Jayne - Love the velcro idea! It wouldn't be hard to stitch a strip to the seat of their pants, would it!
Sarahc - Have a good weekend here "oop north!" Hope grandad doesn't spoil Amy's routine too much.
QueenVic - I started Rebecca on solids a bit early too. The dribbling can be a sign that they're ready for weaning. Becca prefers sweet things too, she clamps her gums together if she's given savoury.
Well, i've nothing exciting planned today, just baby clinic, shopping in town and asda. Pixi photos are in Boots so i'm getting Rebecca photographed in her christening dress.
Take care everyone
