Jazmum - You sound like a great, fun loving mummy to me. Like MD said, I think all the good times out weigh the bad mood mummy days. I can remember my mum having more than a few bad mood days, but the fun times we had together are the memories that stick on my mind. I so know what you mean though, & i'm sure its a common worry for all mummies. Just keep doing what you are doing, we all have our share of grumpy mum bad days.

MD - Hope you are rugged up tonight! We havent tried Maddie in the trolley seat yet. Do you have a trolley mate?

Cally - Ok I guess you are right, if she is unhappy on her tum she will let me know. LMAO at the poo in the bjorn!!

Sherie - I am wary about using too much panadol as well. Have you tried the natural teething remedies? We havent used it enough to determine whether it actually does anything for the pain. Anyway looks like we are in the same boat as you with the teeth. Maddie has a terrible looking rash all around her mouth, a bit of a botty rash and a runny nose and she had a screaming fit before and it gave us the chance to see into her mouth, where there is a definate little cut on her bottom gum right at the front. So looks as if I have jinxed myself and the sleepless nights are on the way lol. Explains the shocking rash though...its so bad poor thing lol. How many teeth is Alister up to now?

Aww Maddie and & daddy are having a convo in the kitchen they are both babbling dad dad dad to each other, I could cry its so cute!!!

Quick q regarding cows milk, if you use it in purees/cooking is that setting them up for lactose intolerance?
