I know what you mean, I am virtually bald :brat:

Vince the Tank at his christening :D

Gave up with the icing in the end, looked too likely to cause problems :blush: But I did use a ribbon, thank you for the excellent idea :love:

I had smoked salmon on a couple of oatcakes and a giant mug of coffee with a bran and choc biscuit. Sounds boring but I love it!

Some pictures from Vincent's christening: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150953228589389.417006.606129388&type=3&l=ba674457c2 Everything went very well, except the constant torrential rain and Vince screaming his head off during the service, LOL!

Baby rice, he screamed like a banshee, hated it! Next day I tried him with Ella's kitchen strawberry and apple, loved it!

I suggest caution with OHs getting in, as there is a high risk of poopies occurring int he area!

I used cocoa butter and didn't get any, but I've heard of lots of ladies who've used cocoa butter, bio oil, you name it, and still got them. It's probably got more to do with the type of skin than the products you use.

I find the breast pads are the annoying bit which takes longer to get out of the way!

Oh dear :( When I put the bumpers in I was thinking more of the possibility of him breaking an arm, I didn't realise they could bump their heads so badly! Mind you, I did find Vince wedged with his head against the rails and pushing with his feet on the other side. So the bumpers were a godsend...

I heard about the risk of suffocation with these, but am wondering if it's not for younger babies with less mobility? I can't imagine a 6 month old not being able to move away if they can't breathe...? Or am I completely mistaken? :S

ASDA only had 2.5 tog, but found one in TK Maxx :D Thank you, ladies!!!!!!

Vince didn't even look at his, am at wits' end!!!

... where I can buy a 1 tog sleeping bag? Every shop seems to have sleeping bags, but all 2.5 - and I need to buy one today! It was too warm last night and, without a sleeping bag, Vince will roll over and wake himself up every hour. I'm zombified :wall2:

GG, still crap!! I don't even try the cot any more, I just walk him about in the baby carrier and that's how he naps - or in the pushchair, but only outdoors, it won't work otherwise.
