Can you put it in forward facing instead so his legs can dangle? If yes then as long as he's within the weight limit then should be ok, as you say having the head below the top is most important.

We have one of each and they each have pros and cons. The push fit one on our kitchen is great because it pushes closed, so I can slam it shut with my foot whilst walking out the kitchen with a tray of food. On the down side it's painful to walk into the side of it with your hip or stubb your toe on the bottom bar. The screw in one on the bathroom is good as it doesn't have those sticky outy bits and can be lifted off when you don't need it. On the down side it must be lifted to be shut (although I can just about do that with one foot if pushed) and when it's open the open end really sticks out scarily at toddler eye level!

You either will or you won't. So 50%, get it?

The pharmacy near the co-op on forest hill Rd may have them, I used to get mine there a few years ago.

Last year for our Southwark online app we didn't have to attach anything. Once a place was offered the school asked for proof of address.

You could spend some time getting as ready as possible to be able to still do things with your older one when your new child is getting mobile and curious. I am playing catch up (ages 4 and 2) and wish I had a high up cupboard for older child's craft stuff which mustn't be wripped to pieces and am trying, with very limited time and brain resources, to think of how I could create a space for her to use them in without interference (small flat).

In a very soggy playground by one o clock club/cafe.

They had some nice ones 2 nights ago. They were in the first aisle.

Your little boy sounds like he is doing fantastically, congratulations. Please don't believe or perpetuate the myth, however, that being later to meet milestones or gain skills has anything to do with laziness.

Great, thanks for all the ideas folks. Last year she went to a school nursery where leggings were allowed (much more sensible!) I think I'll try m and s plus something to hold them up.

Does such a thing exist? My 4 yr old's Tesco ones are dreadful. I'm researching m and s ones but the reviews are totally mixed.

I found that on the 63 at rush hour people were determined to look down into their laps, so didn't see either my bump or badge. It was the winter so I was also wearing big coats which didn't help with showing off bump in an obvious way. In the end I decided to take a deep breath and get ready to ask loudly for a seat each time I got on the bus.

The 2 catholic schools, Cabrini and St Anthony's, take (as I understand it) Catholics until they are all accounted for then give distance places if there are any left. I think Cabrini has had some available in the last couple of years.

I've just seen the first episode so far but we thought the same. Quite down to earth and realistic nanny ideas and parents One thing we have actually tried, not because of a problem but because we just thought what a good idea, is to let the children put their own food o their plates, so they choose their own portion size. Interestingly daughter took much more than we usually give her and ate it all! (The future of our food bills is not looking good, especially with a sub 2 yr old son who can get through 3 weetabix for breakfast!!).

I don't know if they have spaces, but I would definitely recommend Goodrich School Nursery. Our daughter was there last year and it was lovely. They do the currently recommended "free play" thing really well, each day setting up the play areas differently to fire the children's imaginations. It was also clear that the teachers talk to the children, get to know them and encourage them as individuals.

Quite a long thread so I don't know if anyone has already mentioned www.Eric.org.UK Its the national childhood continence charity and has lots of useful info including bedwetting pages. Something it is at pains to emphasise throughout its info about night time wetting is that Children cannot help weeing in their sleep. You cannot train a child to be dry at night, it is reliant on various natural developments which happen when they happen. Still being wet at night up to ages of 6 or 7 can be completely normal and healthy.

There are some available on Amazon.

Oh dear. Does anyone know how strict primary schools are about coat colour. Ours says a 'dark plain colour' but I know my daughter would prefer something a bit more interesting.

Where do people park now the pub carpark is blocked off please?

Thanks.

Which park is close by?

Lovely, thanks everyone.

Ah good, thank you. That's what I was hoping.
