    HJ - I guess because I am breastfeeding that I know that if I offer him short feeds on a hot day, that is the watery foremilk and better for him than water and will quench his thirst as well. At 6 mths when he starts solids I will introduce a sippy cup with his lunch etc. I'm not sure with FF'ing whether to offer more water but I would have thought an extra bottle would do the trick. I would be scared they would fill up too much on water rather than milk seeing as their tummy is so small.
    DH used to have a business but it was a bit different - he is a chippy and had a fencing business. This is a bit different selling novelty chocolates!!! It's fun though and fingers crossed we can build it up and make some good money on the side. The good thing is that we can claim holidays etc because we are stocked at many touristy places!

    at the guitar!!!!

    I've been using Huggies too but bought a pack of Sorbies the other day for both and they seem to be ok. Izzy is a HEAVY wetter overnight and she didn't leak so that's good. James isn't too heavy overnight or during the day and they are holding up really well.

    HJ - I know what you mean about the chocolate! Problem is, I've cut right back on chocolate because it gives James tummy trouble! Arrrggghhh the joys! Im glad he sleeps well overnight so I can have a few glasses of wine on Christmas night and NYE!!! We are having a P party and I'm going as Pebbles!! So excited!

    Tan - u so have to post Pics of u all dressed up as Pebbles! hahaha
    ive also been wondering about the sorbies!

    Hollye - yeah we are using Huggies too - we have just changed B over to the Infant ones cause we ran out of new born - they are a little big and we have had a few wet accidents but wont be long and they will fit her!

    What is everyone else doing for new years? No doubt Kev and I will be in bed asleep! we are such party poopers these days!
