That?s great Shata, thanks for taking the time to share your experience. It?s a hard decision to make so great to hear some views.

Ok thanks. Have you sold through them yourself? They don?t seem to have many properties on their books, wondered why if they?re so great.

We bought through Wooster and Stock years ago - I?m still scarred by it! I don?t know if the person we dealt with is still there or not, which would affect things. They lied, as in made up huge fabricated lies, and tried to play us and the buyer off each other which nearly made the whole thing fall through. All got found out when we went for a viewing mid purchase to measure up and the vendor was there. They hadn?t told him and were really shocked and flustered. They had told us he was an elderly widow moving to the coast to be near his children - he turned out to be a man in his 30s who was selling to buy with his girlfriend!! I will never trust an agent again because of how appalling they were.

We are thinking of selling our flat and I?m nervous about who to appoint as in general we haven?t had great experiences in the past. I?ve seen No Flies mentioned quite a few times with glowing reviews but all the reviews seem to be quite old. Are they still as good? Or has anyone had any other good estate agent recommendations recently? Thanks

Can anyone recommend a local estate agent, or tell me who to avoid! We have been out of the game a long time and are no longer familiar with who is good/bad. Not sure yet if it will be for selling or for letting. How is the market at the moment? On rightmove lots of things seem to have been on for a very long time and I?m not sure if it?s because they?re overpriced or brexit related.

Thanks guys. Can anyone recommend anyone else?

We have our flat rented out locally but we are really unhappy with our current agent and would appreciate any recommendations. It would be for managing it as well as just finding tenants. Also happy to know if there are any we should avoid! Thanks.

The books by Alan and Janet Ahlberg are great, real classics that appeal to all ages. I got them for my daughters first birthday and she still picks them out regularly and she is now 2. Also if you look up 'push along toys' on amazon these are great. They're around ?6 and are lovely wooden little animals like ponys,mouse etc that they push along on a little wooden stick. Great for that age when they're starting to walk and like to hold something. They also look alot more expensive than they are!

I was going to say possibly teething too. I think my daughter is doing the same. I also wondered if my daughter was just getting really bored of having the same meals all the time! I usually batch cook for her and freeze it in portions,but I haven't really changed my repertoire since she started eating food! Two things she will always have which your daughter might go for as the cow and gate apple and pear pur?e but in the pouch rather than the pot. Tesco do their own brand kids yogurt in the same thing. It's not like the frubes it is a proper pouch with resealable lid so you can put it back in the fridge if they don't finish it. She can suck it out rather than having to squeeze it. She also seems to like things she can dip like fruit into yogurt or grilled chicken strips into mango chutney etc. Like you I'm trying to just be relaxed, offer her more variety and trust her appetite. I am trying not to do too many snacks though in between meals as I do think that affects how much she will eat at mealtime although I appreciate it's better to get snacks into her than nothing at all.

Just resurrecting this thread as I am considering getting these and wondered if anyone had used them? I am specifically interested in how well they fit under a standard fitted sheet or do I need to buy the extra deep sheets? Thanks.

Thanks Lucy, that's great. I keep unconsciously crossing my legs and then realising it is probably not helping. I have definitely found sitting in a lotus style comfy but again was worried it could be doing more damage. I have my physio appointment tonight so hopefully I will get lots of tips.

Hi Hollie, I know it's not quite what you are looking for but we are off to the Algarve on Saturday (woohoo) and staying in a place about 20mins from Faro airport. I'll let you know what it's like when we get back, but it's called Fonte Verde if you want a look. I searched for ages and the sites I found most useful (other than forum suggestions of course) were baby friendly bolt holes, the family friendly sections of Alastair Sawdays and Mr & Mrs Smith, and also the holiday review section on mumsnet which has tons of suggestions listed by country and hotel vs self catering. Hope you guys are well x

Thanks Rachel but not based in London anymore. (EDF is a hard habit to drop!) I spoke to the pelvic partnership today and they seemed to think it doesn't matter so much if it is physio, chirp or osteo as long as they specialise in women's health/pregnancy issues. So I found a local physio today that only treats women and specialises in PGP so fingers crossed it will work. Thanks again.

Hi all, That's great. My appt is with the GP rather than the midwife as the receptionist didn't think the mw could make referrals. But it might be worth seeing the mw again anyway. I'll see what they say about waiting times for the Nhs physio and if it is long I'll try private. I have emailed the pelvic partnership to ask if they can recommend anyone near me (based in Cheshire now. It would be great if it just takes 1 or 2 sessions to sort out. Thanks for the tips.
