What I must do before I go to bed: finish making a huge vat of red pepper, sweet potato and lentil soup; pack weekend bags for myself and the babe; fret some more about the stupid "8 month Developmental Check" tomorrow morning.
What I would also be doing if there were more hours in the day: finish writing obscenely late thank-you cards (leftover from Monkey's Thanksgiving in December *blush*); have a bath (if only); knit with the Noro yarn (have cast on stitches but yet to commence knitting proper).
What I have already done today: had a lovely lunch with Sue; fallen off the diet wagon into a cake; shopped in Sainsburys; dealt with two hideously poo-ey nappies, both of which the Monkey decided to put her paws into and rub all over her tummy (sorry TMI); booked flights to Toulouse for a week in May to stay with a babywearing friend and her husband.

Please don't worry about the check. She's fine and healthy and lovely so just ignore everything they say (i do)!!
Hugs xxx
Thanks Daisie. I've decided, instead of fretting, to channel my energies positively and I'm searching on Kellymom for lots of information to counter any of the "advice" I'm likely to get tomorrow (you mustn't breastfeed at night once she gets teeth, you mustn't fill her up with breastmilk because she won't take her solids etc). xx
I'm glad you've fallen off the diet! It's a good thing! Get yourself some good chocolatey cake and don't worry about developmental nonsense - you know your baby best so smile sweetly and ignore what you don't think is suitable for littley! xxx
And hey if it comes to it, try and get a stray hair off the HV/Midwife/GP that's doing the check and if he/she is horrible I'll hex em to kingdom come ;)
LOL just kidding..... well, unless you want me to..... seriously, kidding.....really I am... possibly.
