Re: Alleyn's or JAPPS for Reception

I would have to say that both schools are outstanding and offer brilliant opportunities for the children, so you really can't go far wrong. It is very difficult to anticipate what sort of secondary school will suit your child best at this age. Personally, I find that meeting the child's needs NOW is...

Re: Where to get measured for nursing bras?

I went to Amelie's Follies in Webb's Road and they were able to measure me properly (unlike the big maternity chain store...) and I've had some really comfortable bras from them. On a couple of occasions I have treated myself to Rigby and Peller but they're not exactly local.

Re: How do I help my husband?

That sounds like a good suggestion posted above. Something less specific that can be useful as you are thinking of another baby is "BabiesKnow", a course for parents that looks at all sorts of things that affect babies, including looking hard at how you were parented yourself. Not for the ...
