Breastfeeding Advice Please!
kristymac1 replied to buttercupSE11's topic in The Family Room Discussion
I'd say take the formula (you can get ready mixed aptamil newborn which is sterile so you only need take a couple of sterile bottles and not worry about faffing with cooled boiled water etc). As an aside, I exclusively breastfed my daughter but for various reasons my son is bottle fed - there are pros and cons to both and whilst initially a bit sad about not breastfeeding my son, I certainly don't lose sleep over it and he is thriving! Anything.g which reduced any anxiety preparing for labour is a good thing, althowould say the best plan is not to be too fixed to your plan, once those contractions start you're in the hands of your baby;-) Lots of luck and all the very best for the next few Weeks x -
I'm with eden (formally accor) and those vouchers (online anyway) dont expire. I think its really unfair for those that do - do you lose the money you have salary sacrificed or do they repay you minus the tax?

The 2012 Olympic Barry Barry Road Race
kristymac1 replied to surfbobby's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Well done all, couldn't participate this year as had impending arrival of new baby 2 days after. I love the request from MS Society for 'photographs of training' - definitely one for their next campaign! x -
Need to get photo printed fast!
kristymac1 replied to DVnewbie's topic in The Family Room Discussion
The one on Lordship lane is has closed down due to rent increase - save you the trip down there. Try to locate the nearest Boots? the bigger stores have on the spot photo processing. -
I think there's a family planning clinic in camberwell - just down from Kings. From memory it's a stay and wait place and the waits are pretty long (I never waited it out!)
-
I also heard that an ice-cream shop was moving onto the Lane, my info was a bit more vague in terms of location though.....
-
there is likely to be a 'spring babies 2013' thread started here on the forum - if it hasn't been set up yet, the family room administrator will undoubtedly be on to it soon!

A copy of the letter is available on the website.

We have never received any formal uniform list from the school and our daughter has just gone into yr 1. I have no problem with a strict uniform but it seems totally unreasonable to only communicate this after she has been at the school a year already and never has an issue been raised about her wearing a plain polo short and navy cardigan. As far as packed lunches are concerned, I wonder of along with no 'rubbish' in packed lunches (which I agree with btw), they'll remove cake/custard from the school dinners menu every day?
-
The only info I got from my daughter (albeit yr 1 so 'info' used in the loosest sense) is that there's no jewelry and no trainers. December would seem a strange/unfair time to change the uniform in a major way, surely if major changes are afoot, they'll wait till the start of the new academic year - or risk certain,justifiable uproar from the parents on the grounds of cost surely??

Well now that my eldest is firmly back in the throws of education, and I am no-longer at the mercy of summer holiday 'entertainment', it would be really good to meet for a coffee and/or (power - ha!) walk in the park with our newbies - does anyone fancy making a date for next week? Hope everyone is doing really well and getting bundles more sleep than we are ;-) Kristy xx

Key camp/euro camp holidays vs package hol
kristymac1 replied to wonderwoman's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Hi, we did la bien assise last June with a 4 yr old and a 14 yr old. very easy to get to, 20 min drive from eurotunnel. The site is small but pretty, facilities nice and clean and some pretty villages snot too far if you do want to venture out. We only went for long weekend and stayed in a rent, if we went back I'd opt for caravan (tent was a bit tenko like). The pools are nice, small but nice. We booked with Eurocamp and had no , the staff we're always on hand and very friendly -
We stayed here last year http://www.babyfriendlyboltholes.co.uk/hotel_migjorn__deluxe_suite-child-friendly-accommodation-22859.htm you do need a car to get out and about and to the beach but its set in beautiful countryside, the owners are lovely, some very pretty towns/villages nearby, lovely beaches too.

Congratulations Rachael (sydneyswan), first girl in the group! Hope everything is going well. I'm booked for induction on 27th July (38+2), its unlikely I'll make anymore of the saturday meet-ups (I only made one so far!) due to house renovations, moving back in and the very full social life of my 5 yr old daughter (alas not mine!). But look forward to meeting some of you over the summer maybe, for (sunny?) walks through the park and coffee. Goood luck to all xx
