I had been feeding the baby the two-day old bottle. DH opened it and sniffed it and almost puked. He grabbed the baby, brought her to the sink and stuck his finger down her throat.

What kind of mother am I?!?!?!?!
A normal one! I gave my LO a bottle made up of sour milk - hadn't bothered to check it was fresh (she was on cow's milk by then) and when I warmed it up it all separated and looked well manky, but I still didn't really notice.... She cried when she tasted it and refused it, so I reckon either yours wasn't too massively sour, or by that time it had turned into a camembert or something and she probably enjoyed it

I've given my little man almost half a packet of biscuits to keep him quiet in his highchair so I can read and giggle at this entire thread.

Surely that puts me under the 'bad mummy' category already haha.

No doubt will be adding more as they come to me but I've done the head in the wall one a few times. But I refuse to be blamed because he tries to look down the stairs as we're going up knowing theres a big wall there, so silly baby

LOL! Some of the stories are scary but funny.. I have to admit I taught my son, at 2yrs old, the f**K word. It came out of my mouth in shock at something my husband said. Since then it's been f**k f**k f**k... he knows its a bad word and we can't make him forget it, so we pretend it's nothing so he stops saying to get a reaction out of us. Still not working...

Also I nearly trampled over him with his own pram, as he slided through to the floor because I forgot to strap him in... I think I got mumnesia or maybe just a bad mother. lol

When Oscar had just started crawling he managed to get himself stuck under the couch, with the throw over his head so he looked like a little commando with chubby legs sticking out.
First thing I did was get the camera, and THEN rescue him.

Billie is almost crawling and is quite quick getting around on her tummy. I was reading B n B threads and looked over to see her across the room sucking on one of the cat's toys

I let Ellis have some no nappy time a few weeks ago, figured he'd be ok as the nappy I removed was soiled and he wee'd as I took if off. I put him on the floor still on the changing mat in the living room and went into the bedroom to make the bed. I could still see him, albeit his head and legs kicking about and come back after only 2 or 3 minutes to find him lying in his own wee and poo!!! Poor thing was saturated as it had all gone under him and in his hair!! He was totally unfazed bless!!!!!
