Hi Calli, How spooky is life? I also have a brother who was called Clinton John. He passed away just a few months before his 21st birthday. I thought I'd always use his name but the tradition in my...

Hi Belinda, I love my children's names Camryn Nicole and Gabrielle Katriona. We had Patrick Martin chosen for a boy but got the two girls so we never got to use it, and don't plan to either. The on...

Hi Bec, I find that my daughter bites when she eats a food she's intolerant to & before she could communicate effectively (she had hearing problems that required grommets) she would often latch on ...

Hi All, I'm glad things have picked up with you all for the simple task of removing dairy from the kids' diets. We had dairy removed from Camryn's diet for months but there was no change to her con...

Hi Janeen, The last of the builder's blokes walked out of here at 8pm on Dec. 18th. I was much relieved to see the back end of them. I can't believe though that for all the hard work it's still not...

Hi Everyone, I just had to add more information to this fun site. I'm a twin & my parents only found our 2wks before we were born that were getting two for the price of one! Mum can't remember what...

Hi Everyone, I hope that your little cuties are doing well. I’m an absolutely terrible person as I’m so impressed with Camryn’s progress on the diet that I recommend it to anyone with recurrent tod...

Hi Ashley, Thanks for your reply. I really feel for you. We went back to the ENT for the 5mth check on Thurs (08/04) & got a gold star. Camryn had wax built up around her left grommit that was of s...

Hi Everyone, I know that I'm late in joining this post but it's a fun one. My Hubby & I chose 1 boy's name & 1 girl's name before we got married so that when we fell pregnant there would be no deba...

Cheers JZ, Be strong with your decision. Remember that you know what's best for your son & your circumstances. I know too many people who've had trouble & have had to get it done much later. At lea...

HI Cassie, So far we've only tracked down wheat as being a no-no for our daughter. We have a long way to go to sort out the rest of her intolerances. I found the "Friendly Food" cook book from the ...

Hi Mary, I've been to a day stay & it was wonderful. As with any form of information, you take what works for you & discard the rest. The Day Stay confirmed that it wasn't my technique that was the...

Hi Again Everyone, It's been absolutely magnificant the support we've been giving each other through this site. Gab is now 10mths & we've been back to the paed. We went for the barium meal as she o...

Hi Celle, I can match your problem & raise you one!!!! We too have poo issues in our household with our 2.5yr old. Oddly enough I also have a second daughter who's 9mths old. Our 2.5yr old is toile...

Hi Girls, I'm happy to say that since the grommets (Nov 03) we've only had two tiny little runny noses. We went for our post-op check-up & passed with flying colours. I thought we'd run into troubl...

Hi Synni, We've been through grommets with our 2yr old & she was bright as a button within 2hrs of the op. We are now biding our time to have her adnoids & tonsils removed as the Dr said the longer...

Thanks for your reply, We still need to sleep Gaby (9mths) in an upright position & thankfully she doesn't scream any more but the reflux is still a great bother to her. We head off to the paed. ag...

Hi Darlene, Janeen & Kylie, Wow things haven't improved much on our extension front as we're now on wk 17 or our "little 10wk job" & I'm just desperate to put up our Xmas tree for Gab's first Xmas ...

Hi Janette, I nearly died when I read that you'd been the see Michele at the Hills Parenting Centre. I went there with Gaby when she was 8wks old & it was Michele who actually recommended we go on ...

Hi There, Try elevating one end or the cot to see if it reduces his ability to travel up. My 2yr old moved into a bed at 18mths & before that we regularly found her sleeping with her legs dangling ...
