    And if they don't walk in on you, they start crying/throw up/have a bad dream half way through. You know you are a parent when you can stop, deal with child and pick back up where you left off :rotfl:

    I got the platinum rabbit, but it's a bit thick, so was looking at the slim line one before Christmas... Still, rabbits are ace! OH and I highly reccomend the rabbit attatchment for your OH.... think it's how we got into this state! :rolleyes:

    You can get attachments for them??? Crikey - I might need to expand my collection to include a rabbit again! (I uhmmmm.... kinda... uhmm.... broke mine... some years ago :o )

    DFW no more! Officially debt free 2017 - now joining the MFW's! :)

    My DFW Diary - blah- mildly funny stuff about my journey
  • Just a quick update - She has managed to spend 10 mins with the little one so far before they whisked her back down to the ward. They are just waiting on the results of some tests and then hopefully baby (George Raymond (Raymond was our Grandad who has sadly passed away)) can join mummy on the ward later this evening. I am hopefully going to visit tomorrow afternoon all being well. Her OH sent me a picture and he looks very bruised and battered and his head is all coney as they had to use suction in the end to get him out.

    He wasn't prem he was 8 days overdue but the birth was traumatic and long and he was stuck int he birth canal for a while. Plus the midwife that popped her waters have poked a hole in his head! So not only is he bruised but he has a great bit sore on the back of his head. Grrr. So hopefully all is well. Fingers still tightly crossed there is no lasting damage. It must have been so so terrifying.

    Oh and SEX AGAIN. NOOOOOOO. Sami - the 3 weeks and counting thing is because we are classed as 'high risk' (miscarriage) we have to avoid intercourse until after we have our 20 week scan and have seen consultant. We probably will be too scared till 28ish when bubs is a bit more sturdy. It's driving me mental. Although OH is still poorly with sickness and diarrhoea so not quite as attractive as he usually is......
