Popcorn Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 hmmm...I'm with Rosie on that one Clare! I'd cock-a-defun too! Maybe 'babe' would be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyren Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Rosie really hates being called Piglet When she was born, she was a big, chubby baby who made guzzling, oinky noises when she fed - the name stuck, but she still answers to it. My son got the nickname "Froggy" when he was still a bump, because he kicked and hiccuped so much, it was like having a frog in there! Well done, you mums, on having a good go at the breast-feeding - I had to feed the Frog on formula whilst in hospital as the stress of the emergency Caesarian seemed to delay the milk coming I also had mastitis, which meant more formula until the antibiotics were finished. The important thing is not to feel guilty if you have to resort to alternatives - stress will just make it worse. Make the most of the next few months, now you have the hang of things - it gets harder again, once they become mobile Best of luck with your beautiful boys!

Mrs Frugal Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 We called Ollie "Spud" as a baby because that's just what he looked like. This gradually morphed into "Squid" and it's stuck. He quite happily answers to "Squid" now - in fact, I think he rather likes it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana1 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I've put a recent photo of Archie in the gallery under elgu owners. Perhaps Kate can move it here (consider it done, Diana - Kate ). (I'm waiting for photobucket to remind me of my password otherwise I would have posted it here myself.) I'm still not sure what time of day or night it is let alone what all my passwords are. Archie is adorable but then I am his mum. He is smiling and 'talking' in a sort of gurgle language that our girls are beginning to delight in. He is growing very fast and was 13lb 2oz at the last weigh in. Quite pleased with my new bra size but not so pleased with my wasteline.
