    Slumdog Millionaire!

    Amazing film! Absolutely loved it and reminded me of my travels in India during my youth. How cute were little Jamal and Salim? Brilliant!

    Cheese Allergy?

    Not sure, cheese is quite rich. Was it a mild one? If he's ok with other dairy I'd be inclined to leave it a while before trying him on it again. I should think if he's ok with milk, eggs and butter it would be pretty unlikely to be an allergy. :D

    Nursing Bras, Tops, and sleeping bras - do I need all 3?

    You will definitely need some sort of bra to sleep in as you'll need to wear breast pads - even if you don't choose to breastfeed you'll still leak for a while. I had the Mothercare sleep bras which I found really comfy, the straps are softer than the normal feeding bra's. If breastfeeding...

    help advise needed

    We went through exactly this with our LO and found that if he had his tea any later than 5pm he was sick during his bedtime milk at 7pm. It really was a case of just making sure he had his tea by 5pm and then he was fine!

    Health checks

    You can get a private medical from private health companies like Bupa, but they cost about £350 - £400 and if they find anything wrong you just get referred back to your GP. If you've got specific concerns your best bet is to book an appointment with your GP and discuss everything in one go. I...

    Babies... in London... *decided*

    Why don't you just delay your trip out for a couple of weeks until your OH can be around to collect Ryan from nursery etc? If it were me I'd be tempted to put LO in nursery and have a lovely day out with my mum, knowing that if there is any drama then my OH could see to it. Am sure your mum...

    Dinner ideas

    Meatballs are good. Chop an onion, add to raw beef mince, a few herbs of your choice, a handful of breadcrumbs. Mix together (or whiz down if you want a smoother consistency) then roll into little balls about the size of a malteser, and coat in some plain flour. Brown them off in a frying pan...

    Morning feed, bringing it later? Help pls?

    If you want to start the day earlier, then why not put her in her cot after the morning feed rather than both of you napping in your bed? You can then get up and have some much needed time to yourself! :D

    Morning feed, bringing it later? Help pls?

    Mmnn not sure you will be able to get her to sleep later tbh. Waking at 7am is a normal and natural waking time for a baby, and she's hungry so will wake for milk. What would happen if you didn't put her back to bed after the first feed? Could you just get her up and start the day without the...

    help please - sleep/eating issues

    Hi, sorry to hear you're having a bad time. Sleep deprivation is awful and having to cope with this on you're own must be extra hard. :hug: :hug: Just my thoughts but I think perhaps he's got his balance of milk and solids a bit off balance. I would be inclined to give him milk when he...

    Kitchen Refurb - Lots of questions & pics wanted!!

    I too can definitely recommend Ikea kitchens. I have used them a couple of times and have not been disappointed. The planning tool is great, but if you want you can just go into the store with your measurements and they will help you design it. The staff are really helpul. I think we spent...

    Has anyone been to baby Sensory Classes

    Yes we are in our third term of Baby Sensory! Ours sound like the same format as BeatlesFan, with the 20 minute 'exploratory play' session in the middle of the class. My LO loves it - its something different each week and the lady puts alot of effort into every class. Would definitely...
