  1. if you send your child to a private pre school will the government still pay for the 15 hrs p/w?
  2. i think generally the church is well maintained, i wonder if mr smythe did contact the council about it
  3. looked today the tyres are still there?
  4. how hardcore is the power pramming out of interest? My fitness would be described as utterly terrible!
  5. babies are all different just like people, why do they stick them all in the same box ? eg too light too heavy
  6. there is a to let sign outside the house today?
  7. In all fairness the first health visitor I had (from the gardens ) was lovely and did ask how I was feeling after the birth etc whilst at home. I also had a lovely GP for 6 week check up who did a PND assessement. As GWOD said the other HV I felt represented the NHS rather that suiting the needs of the mother/child. That clinic at townley road was very dissapointing it felt like it was a "job lot". I breast fed my daughter after a weigh in then one of them asked me "would you prefere to use the side room!". got more useful tips talking to the other mums in the waiting room
  8. I remember it was snowing when my baby was new born and had just dozed off with her sleeping on my chest. DING DONG ...oh its the the health visitor, no call to say she was coming? turned up because of the snow and she had so many people on her books she was going around now to see everyone now. explained i had been seen someone else the previous week and she couldnt wait to get back out the door after that. I also told another health visitor my main concern was my babys ears ( husband partially deaf) and we had not had a hearing test in hospital. was given the wrong number for newborn hearing checks. rung the midwives at kings who were brilliant and got a test sorted for me. Went to the weighing in clinic waited an hour and a half the first time round. if i had private questions for the health visitor i wouldnt have felt comfortable asking them in a room full of other people? havent bothered going back whats I can weigh the baby at home. I personally think the idea of a private health visitor in the area might be a good idea due to the poor experience many people have had around east dulwich. would you do home visits?
  9. I was shocked by the lack of support from the health visitors in this area.
  10. im thinking about joining weight watchers bit nervous though as i have never been before. they dont weight you infront of everyone do they!?? how much do sessions witha personal trainer cost out of interest?
  11. did use a muslin got a proper parasole now have to keep adjusting it but it was agood buy
  12. who has dumped it there? upland road looks so lovely these days until you reach that last house!
  13. reminds me of our little one very cute x
  14. my little one is 6 months she is in a grow bag which is great. however swaddling has been used for hundreds of years in newborns???
  15. i would just move them dont park your car there but obviously someone else will come along and park there
  16. we have always found seldoc very good rung them about my little girl twice. they were very reassuring
  17. If your car is taxed and insured you have every right to park there. could you move the cones at night?
  18. there are police cars outside the house next to the new buildsthis morning? someone set fire to the pile of stuff that was dumped outside the house
  19. i left a pink bucket in my front garden and it got pinched!!
  20. perhaps if you contact your GP they may be able to give you a counselling referal before going down the medication route? it sounds like you could really do with a break, could you book a getaway with hubby or as a family? who goes to tend toyour little one at night? my roles are reversed to yours and i always tended to baby at night as hubby had work the next day and he needed his sleep.
  21. hi thinking of coming along what do you guys get up to at the meets?
  22. Hi I have been in the same boat so you are not alone. just stopped Breast feeding baby is 6.5 months now. Ive been to see a hairdresser recently had quite alot cut off. she recommended taking a hair and nail vitamin which i never thought of? ive also noticed my hair has been so greasy so i try not to wash it everyday now....
  23. just thought bananas for the morning might be another idea?
  24. I was boarderline gestational diabetes. went for the fasting blood glucose test and luckily got the all clear. i spoke to a midwife about my diet and she said try and quit the quick fixes (eg chocolate biccies) and go for the slow release carbs. basically i had been eating rubbish during the first part of the pregnancy. i used to get the Low GI bread from the bakery and have a piece of that for morning. sorry if this dosent help and they have already told you this??
  25. 5 years old is far too young...end of
