Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Sorry lelani- i just look at things from a mans perspective in a womans body LOL my body gets tired but my desires don't ever wain LOL

Leigh- did your friend and his girl split just because he couldn't get a blessing from the CofE? Excuse me if i stand on anyones religious toes but i won't give up my one true love because my religion tells me it's not right!!!!!! That's actually not the point nor the true meaning of having a faith in the first place.

The Jamie Bulger case was one very very good reason for people to seriously consider who they leave their kids with. That was horrific and i also heard the one '10 year old' has been caught with Child pornography and will be given ANOTHER new identity ..........TERRIBLE

I won't use a child minding service, no matter how well recommended, registered or perfect they seem for looking after my child whilst i go out at night, I think Daycare centers are slightly different because they aren't a one on one situation but alone in my house..... no thank you, then i will stay at home and politely decline the invite. I know how it feels not to have family to babysit all the time (remember mine are in the UK and my mum is 2.5hrs away) but i do have some very good friends i would trust wholly with my whole life and we have once had them look after C. My SIL has also looked after C for the odd morning here and there but also someone i know i can trust.

I think parents need alone time but not if the only option is to leave my child with a stranger.

Lelani- great news about the school interview! i hope it goes really really well!

Lisha , wha is this Floradix magnesium for

Lelani he is actualy very lucky for twice a week, we went on holiday & came back he did not get any I was dead tired for the whole 3 days. Twice a week he'll seriously think it Xsmas.

Hi Julz, my skype is on Smit Family - if you do a search. Hope things get better with Dylan, I'm sure they will - well they can't get worse surely.

Nelria - there is a big difference between 2 and 3 kids. I'm lucky as I've had mine fairly close together - my brother on the other hand has 3 kids all 5 years apart. I don't know which one is better - I just know I'm EXHAUSTED at the end of the day and I sleep VERY well. When I look at my 3 I feel only love and I will never regret having a 3rd but its hard work. To go through all the stages again. Plus when I put Erin into parttime daycare next year I will have been at home 6 years. Which is a long time. But everyones circumstances are different.

My mother and I had this conversation about being comfortable with your kids and other adults and kids. There are some sick sick people out there. The first that comes to mind is the BULGAR story from the UK - two 10 year old boys who killed a 2 year old (I think I have the ages right). I also said to mum that peoples feelings can get very hurt when you are protective over your kids - even having someone else take the girls to the bathroom - I'm VERY protective and I'm afraid it will always be like that. I went through some stuff when I was a kid and sometimes I wonder where my parents were when it was happening (not abuse but just other stuff). The girls had CHILDLINE at their school yesterday and they taught them some good stuff. By how C and R explain - they did a good job explaining that only mummy and daddy may see them naked. And no touching on the pvt parts.

WRT the feeding issue, I think Erin sounds to be on track. I have to laugh though, I had to hold her night bottle up till 18 months - she never drank it herself - lazy little monkey!!!

Enigma, I hope you don't mind me asking - if your husband is not muslim - is he religious? Did you get married in a muslim ceremony? My best friend has just split from his fiance as he was christian and she was muslim and he couldn't get a blessing from the Church of England.

Lelani sorry to hear Chanel is not able to get into your school of choice. I've just had a call from our school and they say Renee may be too young for Grade R next year - I'm hoping they will take her as I'm really keen to get them out of the playschool they're in at the moment. And I've just been emailed to say that Renee is too young. Blast it. Looks like she's going to have to stay a year behind. Which is not such a bad thing I guess. It is though when I don't like the playschool she's in. Oh well.

Right, time me be best off, catch up again later.

Vix my friend swears by Floradix magnesium for the kids ... she get's it from Dischem ... going to look for it for Shrey when i get a chance.
