Hello and welcome to our Friday roundup of the best of the UK parent blogging scene. Regular as prunes but much more tasty.

So last week's whiney nag little pep talk seemed to do the trick and the mummy and daddy bloggers were out in force this week, posting like there's no tomorrow and commenting like they just don't care.

Dad's Nursery was feeling a bit out of practice, but has jumped right back in the game – by breaking stuff.

And this week Crummy Mummy (who drinks) aimed for the gold medal in pockling. What's pockling? I'll give you a clue – most of us do it, would rather we didn't, but will probably still be doing it till the day we die

Yummy Mummy No 1 welcomed a guest interviewee to her blog – one tough cookie who knows how to answer a tough question with unflinching and hilarious honesty.

Home Office Mum has reached the tipping point of parenthood – when your social life becomes their social life, and mum and dad's taxi service is always on call. Multiply this by the next 15 years of your life and that's the future mapped out right there.

Meanwhile, over here on ParentDish, commenters shared their stories of giving birth – both with midwives and without. That's only the start of the adventure.

And finally, a round of applause for Beetroot and Gherkins for raising an exceptionally creative child. Everyone's got their own special talent, and B&G's offspring has discovered his – he can poo in the shape of animals. How marvellous. You must be very proud.
