I thought this shit died with the Celtic Tiger. Up to last year we had parties in the house and this year (tomorrow in fact) my eldest will be going to the cinema with 7 pals and then for some food afterwards.

"Hired a circus" hardly means he has a 2 ring big top with strong man, elephants and a high wire!  A circus school which sends over a couple of clowns who do magic, juggling and a few kids games can be hired for £100.

Well our youngest cub who is 2.5 yrs old has decided to start and put the contents of his nappie onto his bedroom walls quilt, teddies etc. Its not easy stuff to shift off the walls let me tell u. The room will need painted after this. Anyone else gone through this.

Next time he does it rub his face against the part of the wall he has wiped the nappie on.
He won't be long stopping then.

You think he's ready to be potty trained? Give him the old big boy routine and plenty of praise (treats) when he does it

Did you mean this for the 'Pet Problems' thread?

Have a 4 week old who can't seem to keep it in the nappy this past few days either. Up the back, down the legs, vests and baby grows destroyed, bedclothes wrecked. Me and his Ma are almost cheering every time it happens though - completely besotted with the wee man. Amazing how something so small changes your life completely. Have enjoyed reading through this thread in the odd 5mins I get spare these days!

I have added to the brood with a second girl. Five weeks old now. Completely different than first experience. Was a planned section this time. Although we were told to be in for 7am we weren't taken until 3pm.
The second LO has a silent reflux so in first three and a half weeks she was hard to settle. Easier now as she is getting a dissolved tablet (can't for the life of me spell when it is) in the mornings, plus we have learnt a bit of how to handle her to help settle.
The oldest (2 and a half) has taken to the LO well. I thought she might be a bit jealous. She can be a bit rough though. She came out in a dose of chicken pox the other day so that has to be managed too. Its a busy household. Visitors are a scourge. I turn 30 in February. I'm a very old 29.

Having one is like owning a dog. Having two is like running a Zoo.
Enjoy.!

Whenever I turn 30 I will start reading Stephen King. Have been holding off until then. What is life without whimsy.

Two is much tougher. Still trying to get out the door to training two evenings a week and a match on Sunday. Tough going. Lucky I'm from Tyrone so matches are few and far between.

No. Tesco Value nappy bags work just fine.
