Maggie ,,I always said my life would begin when my children grew up so I was a stay at home mum ,,,had the odd night out with OH , always said he could drink enough for the both off us anyway,,,,now my youngest is 15 and 2 years ago my elder four said Mum you have to get A life now - - -come out with us - - so one night I did , but I never drank alcohol in my life as I did'nt think I would like it,,, I am very fussy about food and drink,,,well my lot introduced me to everything ,,and now I get more invites than anyone - - only because im nuts ,mind you.but I love sambuca , long vodkas,midori malibu,,I could go on but dont want to bore you ,,,and Im to tired to be thirsty,,,well maybe just a little one ,,, to help me sleep , lol Sally , gone for a swally , (swallow) .x

OH Ladies ,,you got to love them ,,,no matter the age ha ha Sally x

That sounds horrendous. I'm sooo grateful my daughter could and did breast feed - no nights out for her - just like her mum lol maggie

OH Sally, that was funny , but yes i do remember what it was like thankfully my g/children are now 10 and 12 so no more bottles but when i [baby sit] its nan can i stay up until 10 o clock or 11 oclock mum wont mind lol hazelx

Dont you just love em. Colic isnt nice Tiddler had it screamed and I mean screamed from 9pm til 2 am. Bet when you saw him this morning though and that cute little face you just loved him to bits lol

Oh Sally I had to laugh at that one.....I always ask DiL for times for meals, instructions on sleep times etc....they change all the time when they are small, don't they....

Yes I threw in the towel , overpowerd , put to shame , shown no mercy , all this from , a 2 month old ,,,,,, fed him at 8.55 pm ,winded him , played with him , changed him ,,,next feed due at 12.55 , his 4 year old sister was blissfully in dream land , by midnight I was ready to do the same , no sleep the night before - no reason just could'nt get to sleep. so I waited and waited and waited for him to wake for his feed ,did;nt want to fall asleep in case he woke up and I was'nt ready for him ,so what did he do to me ? HE did'nt wake up till 4.15 am .thats what !! then he ate his feed ,I winded him , changed him,and by 5.am he was fast asleep again . you see for the first 6 weeks he suffered bad colic , and brought through his first tooth , his mum thought about changing his feed , but her health visiter told her not too , so she asked my advice , so I told her to go with her instinks as she was his mother , so she changed his feed 2 weeks ago ---- and what a diffrence in him, but what she forgot to do was tell me that he misses out his late night feed .So In reallity I was defeated by a 24 year old - - - which does'nt really make me any happier, - - - cause Im still nackerd , and the moral off the story is this , to all you new mothers out there , please dont forget to pass vital information on to us not so new grans !!!!!! now when I go shopping tomorrow I can leave the bag at home , cause I can carry it home in the bags under my eyes lol Sally , not so Sunshine (tonight) x
