Unfortunately good nannies are few and far between here and it's no longer the parents who choose the nanny but the nanny who chooses the family- we had to fight off 13 other families for her!!! Up to now she's been very accommodating, I think she sees it as I'm a new mum and maybe I'm not aware the babies need to go through the purée stage - let's hope Gill will change her to my way of thinking. As for the doctor I think I'll give her the report and if she says it's no good I'll agree with her to keep her off my back then do it my way. Will test the waters with the mother-in-law as she's staying with us all next weekend. What do you think re the weight gain? I actually had a good look at her tonight and she's pretty chubby, with some good old thigh folds so I think the issue is not weight but length - if she put on more weight without getting longer she'd be too fat. Must check weight to length ratios...
