Hi Laura, I certainly don't think it looks bad! And yes, that is what I meant, but as I said it is only a suggestion. Let me know if you do decide to use it in the future, and you need a hand setting it up, or any other aspect of it for that matter :D Thanks, Paul

Hey, Tell me to stop interfereing, but I run 3 or 4 different phpbb forums being a complete geek. Have you thought about using groups to manage your moderators. Would make the index look much neater, especially as you are adding to your moderator count. Just an idea, tell me to shut up...

Sorry, I'm not an experienced, but Dad! :) I think at that age its very misleading. Our LO was in the 98th %ile for both height and weight and is a big boy, but 75 %ile is very healthy. Look at it like this...Theres only 25 % of children of that age that are heavier, so its by no means a sign...

Hi, I haven't read all the replies so sorry if I repeat, but I thought you might like a male perspective on this...Just my 2 cents... I suppose I'm about to make some generalisations, but I think they're justified from personal experience. First of all, my wife and I fight (verbally)...

My wife is due on the 27th October.

First off, congratulations! From what I can understand (and I'm not a doctor), the pain during early pregnancy is normally on the side where you ovulated from... Apparently this side then acts as some kind of hormonal release which helps to keep the pregnancy healthy.. Someone please...

Closing the door wouldn' really work as he is able to open it (hes very tall!)..My wife has suggested putting a stair gate in his doorway so he can see out but not get out, and hpefully eventually give up and then wander back to bed... Unfortunately he also has a tendancy to end up sleeping on...

Hi All, I am having to work away a little at the moment, which is normally fine. However, just after Christmas we moved our 2 yr old son into a toddler bed from a cot, and have been trying to get him to settle down without causing mayhem every night. Unfortunately, although we try and be a...

Hi All, I haven't posted here now for probably 10 months...My wife and I had a bit of a traumatic time last year. Now I feel its time to share our experience, maybe to others if in the same situation: Last year, around this time, my wife became pregnant with our second child. We were...

Probably sounds pretty odd, but my wife sat and ate glasses full of ice cubes all through her first pregnancy. All I heard when I sat down in the evening was 'crunch-crunch-crunch' :)

Hey skatty, Where would you get a belly belt from? My wife would definately be interested in this.

No, I don't think so. Some peoples bodies just adapt to change alot easier than others. You will still have more than enough hormones to look after you and the baby, I suppose it just hits some people harder than others. Certainly no doctor would suggest that a level of sickness portrays...

My wife first started showing at between 12 and 14 weeks (being a sad male, I dedided to keep a photo diary of the 'bump'). There was a slight difference at 12 weeks (could've been a big sunday dinner) and a norticable difference at 14 weeks.

I think the 'more sickness the healthier the baby' saying comes from the fact that the sickness is normally caused by the increased amount of hormones in your system. To that end, I would assume that sickness is normally worse in your first pregnancy as it is the first time your body will...

Hey Rachael, I think your post would make a great sticky :)
