Good luck everyone!

Dont forget to pick up the baby box set at swrt.com



This innovative boxed-set provides everything for kitting out our youngest fans. The mini drivers' suit has all the team and sponsor logos printed on it. The suit is complimented by a hat and bib, again displaying the SWRT logo. All are made from soft 100% cotton interlock. Finally, for all those potential World Champions out there, a steering wheel rattle completes the set.

The cranial osteopath worked miracles on my son and it changed his behaviour massively. If the 3 bones that form the skull have been squashed together, overlap, pressured in any way the cranial osteopath will sort this and you will notice an immediate change in your baby.

As soon as my son had his first session he went through sleeping all night immediately, screaming sessions reduced massively and he was generally a far happier baby than before the treatment.

Its a must!!!

I'll second all of the above - works a treat.

I'd best get ordering too! Already got the baby thats due in early October a baby racing suit from the Bahrain Grand Prix and a T-shirt from Le Mans. It had better be a boy!

Wife is a mid-wife and its her first, and she keeps saying its all different to how she thought it would be!

The bump is nicknamed Dumbo as it looks as if it could be a large baby!

By the way ordered the pram last week, long delivery period apparently although won't be collecting it until the baby is born.

By the way don;t forget with new-born babies they should be kept flat as long as they want to be to ensure their back is strong, and shouldn't spend all their time in a car seat.

/me wipes his brow.
Gladly it was a false alarm (10 week early pregnancy), bloody worrying but releiving at the same time. Hopefully she will go full term now, or at least another five weeks I hope
Good Luck to everyone having Babies, people forget about us dads

Our lass woke me at 3.30 one morning saying she hadn't felt him move for a good while, he was already almost at the limit of being overdue. Went to the hospital for 4.00 a.m. Put the heartbeat monitor on, I was there until 6.00. They kept Catrina in, as she was due to be induced at 6 that night.

I went to work, went back to the hospital after work, still no sign of him arriving. Went home for some tea about half 5. Got back at half 6, where she hadn't needed induced, started labour just after I'd left. Baby was born at just after 1 in the morning. They chucked me out of the maternity bit about 3.00 (very nice of them I thought), went straight to my parents house to tell them, finally got to sleep about 5.00 a.m, then one of the lads from work phoned me at 7.00 cos I'd texted loads of people when I got to my parents house, to say congratulations.

Couldn't get back to sleep after that, too much adrenaline I guess. Had no more sleep until 12.00 that night after I'd been on a bender to wet little Nathan's head

I'm just about catching up on my lack of sleep now, and that was April 2002!!!!!! Lol.

An amazing experience, enjoy it, I know I did.

Andy.

Enjoy the concept of the 'lie in' as much as you can. Be prepared to kiss it goodbye.

Speaking from experience, ellie is 11months and currently teething (again)

<sigh>
