I have recently bought a canon 1100d, after much research. I spoke to a friend who had also recently taken up photography and he really rated it. I am still only just beginning to use it but hope to find more time in the near future to get to grasps with it & use it more. There are currently lots of package offers on for this and other cameras, so keep a look out!

I'd like to join this 'club', my little monster ( I mean angel really) has started teething and just refuses to nap unless I rock her to sleep for ages then continue to hold her. As soon as I try and put her down she screams like she is being tortured!! She is now also waking up at night o be held back to sleep..... I'm to soft to try the 'cry out' method so will be interested to know how other mums manage and if there is a sleep coach available!!

Thanks for the replies ladies! I am using teething gel but prior to teething she was the same but now has become more fussy and fights me (if that makes sense)... Also, we've ruled out the teat as an issue! And she refuses to take any water :-( I have seen a paediatrician since I'm going regularly to get her weighed but he doesn't seem concerned since her weight gain is ok!

It's on 533. If you haven't got this channel and you have already subscribed to the aljazeera sports package - call du and ask them to enable. We also had some issues.

I'm having the same problem, also short so I have to hold one side up once I get the car seat unattached then run around the other side! Other then the above I actually really like the Quincy buzz - mind you the shopping basket seems to be total pants!

I need to buy a new Maxi cosi (pebble) car seat for my new born baby, however it seems stock is low in the UAE. Do any of you ladies happen to know if there are any retailers that have sufficient stock supplies without having to wait weeks/ months? TIA P.s I know mothercare don't have any in stock....

Thanks ladies! Monkey Face - please can you let me know the address of main branch? I went to the acually business centre office in Jebel Ali, as I've been advised previously this is the nearest office to me and its the place we needed to go. Since the counters in the malls etc can't help give you back money, they are there just to take it. :-/

I have one on my wrist, it's not painful so after consulting with my doc in the UK I decided to leave it and not have it operated on. It tends to grow and shrink, and currently it seems to have disappeared. I think the main risk with getting it operated on is that it is not necessarily a permanent solution- so the question is if it's worth going through it all with a high risk of it reappearing.
