    Time to wean??

    Could well be a growth spurt like Jade suggested. Other signs that a baby is ready to wean are able to sit up unaided, good head and neck control and movements, becoming bored of breastfeeding/bottle feeding. I would try and hold out for a bit longer just in case it is the 4 month growth...

    KFC, Mc Donalds or...?

    I dont eat Mcdonalds, KFC, or any of the other chain fast food restaurant types such as Frankie & Benny's to be honest I think their food is awful. Its not fresh for a start, tastes bloody awful and always overpriced. I live in a huge Asian community so we have lots of Indian restaurants and...

    names with short cute versions

    Oooh Im a Charlotte & I hate being called Lottie, but that's probably because I've had a mixture of Charlie/Charlotte from being a baby and you don't get may Charlie's my age but it does seem to be very popular now for both boys and girls.

    Barcelona

    Right back to reply like I promised :D So Barcelona is such an amazing city, it has everything architecture, art, shopping, beach, drinking, fab restaurants, nightlife and a fantastic tourist bus. Basically most of the sights are reached by 2 tourist bus routes. One red, one blue. Both do...

    V Festival

    Great to go if its your first festival and they always have amazing headlines but I have witnessed a lot of hostility, trouble makers and fighting, also a lot of tents get raided and belongings pinched even down to the camping chairs. Another gripe of mine is you cant have camp fires so how on...

    Confussed

    Sorry hun I cant say how much your baby should be having as I haven't bottle fed but just for information at birth a baby's stomach is the size of a marble, at 3 days old it its the size of a shooter marble (the bigger marbles) and at 10 days old it is the size of a ping pong ball. So whilst...
