  1. You might be able to get a few ideas on Rightmove http://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/detailMatching.html?prop=35432672&sale=47341865&country=england http://www.langfordrussell.co.uk/property-for-sale/2-bedroom-house-in-dunstans-road-east-dulwich-se22-P196144/floorplans/#tabs http://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/detailMatching.html?prop=33943467&sale=54510305&country=england http://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/detailMatching.html?prop=33975450&sale=2442472&country=england
  2. Dietitians tend to work for the NHS, he may be better off looking for a nutritional therapist or naturopath?
  3. We moved to Harpenden and never looked back! Fantastic place to bring up a family. There are at least another three families that I know of who moved from ED/Camberwell. I don't actually keep an eye on the EDF anymore but for some reason decided to log on today! PM me with any questions.
  4. Babydan and lindam both sell y-shaped attachments for their pressure fit gates so you can have flat wall on one side and spindles on the other. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0017PM6OU?pc_redir=1395981182&robot_redir=1
  5. Another recommendation for Kate Fisher. She offers two follow-up appointments within the fee quoted and unlimited phone support if you need it, when I looked up Ann Dobson I seem to remember she didn't offer this. The tt is likely to grow back so it is important to have follow-ups. Katie a very good lactation consultant, and so supportive, without her I wouldn't have been able to carry on breast feeding my son. Going privately means the issue is sorted quickly and you don't really have time to waste when it comes to establishing breast feeding. I don't know anything about her website but I thought her fees were on the lower side compared to others and she even came to my house on public transport for follo-ups as we struggled to get to hers in croydon.
  6. Hazel's kitchen That Little Place Bar & Larder
  7. Ps re morning rewards could it simply be letting him choose a favourite cereal or letting him have some juice or anything that would feel more 'special' if he's been good all night?
  8. What do you do when he wakes in the night? Is he getting something out of it (attention) or do you just march him Back silently to bed with minimal fuss? I totally sympathise as had to go back to work with second baby waking constantly every 1 or 2 hours and getting progressively worse. I called Nic from childsleepsolutions and it was sorted in two nights. Best ?75 ever spent!! What also helps is going to bed super early yourself, ie 8.30pm to get a good chunk of sleep in before they start to wake. And earplugs. Re big boys bed I'd wait personally if you think he'd find it too much of a change but if you think he'd get all excited about choosing new bed, sheets etc perhaps he'd be more likely to stay in it? And you can always threaten with the old bed back if he doesn't stay in it!
  9. We flew with a 6 wk old - so easy. Do consider the time it takes to register birth, organise photos and applying for passport though. And the baby will be due the first lot of jabs at 4 weeks so you might want to think about scheduling of those.
  10. Hi there, my daughter was also in SCBU for a week at birth (for something else) tube fed, and then back in again age two weeks for another stint and put on formula. Both times I just kept pumping and it was as easy as just popping her back on the boob when she was allowed back on bm. I don't think nipple confusion is as common as they make out. Hopefully you will find you're ok too. My main problem was not knowing when to stop pumping so ended up getting painfully engorged and mastitis.

  12. We had that, suddenly the bath terrified her, it'll pass. Try giving bath time s miss for a few days then coax him in with some toys he usually doesn't have in the bath, bucket & spade or something from the kitchen perhaps. Or get in with him yourself but don't force him if he doesn't want to.
  13. No bag with bugaboo bee and fine. We've travelled with Ryanair, Easyjet, SAS, BA and bit had any problems.
  14. I grew up trilingual, in Sweden with Finnish mum and Italian dad. We spoke Swedish at home and my mum sometimes spoke Finnish to me, we mainly spoke the other languages on holiday in that country. It did help that my mum was a teacher so we had very long holidays! Apparently by the age if 4 I was fluent in all three languages and would translate between my grandparents whenever they all came to stay at the same time etc. I think the most important thing was having family and friends my age, speaking the other language was the one thing that motivated me to actually speak that language too. I notice my daughter understands every Swedish word I say but she prefers to answer in English at the moment, though she speaks Swedish with my parents as she knows they don't understand English. It's not confusing for children to have lots of different languages at home. If anything it'll be very easy for them to learn other languages at school. German came very easily to me for example as the grammas is similar to Italian but totally different to Swedish.
  15. Yes we've done it lots of times. Not all airlines/airports let you take the buggy to the plane though so check this before you travel. Also being able to take the buggy to the gate doesn't always mean you then also get it straight back as you disembark, you may have to collect it with the luggage. Had a great flight from gatwick where they let us go though the 'assisted' security check as we had the buggy which meant no queuing and lots of people to help. Don't make my mistake and take baby forks or knives through security as they will be confiscated - que toddler meltdown...
