    Sorry to jump in with a question, I'll go and read back shortly. How do I find a childminder? I'm sure I recall some links.

    These were two of the links Feely - I think also individual local councils usually do their own on their websites

    It wouldn't be a problem if I wasn't bleeding 24/7, though a mooncup does seem ideal, only thing is I have quite strong pelvic floors, so when I pee, the muscles push the tampon out (it doesnt fall out!!) every time, so basically every time i go to the loo I have to put a new one in. Would the mooncup fall out too? Don't fancy fishing it out of the bog, esp if it was a public loo, EWWWW.

    I think I've posted before about never going for a smear, well I have my app to get this implant out on Wed, so I'm going to make an app whilst there for a smear, I'm worried about all this bleeding, maybe there is a problem and it's just coincided with getting the implant? I never used to bleed THIS heavy, although it was everyday. My mum also had pre cancerous cells in her womb after she had me, at about the same age, so really, I'm a prat for putting it off for so long. Slap me now.
  • morning everyone :)

    well I had expected to have an afternoon off from Jasmine today as she was supposed to be at her Grannys, but she is still in jury service so cant take her !! I know it sounds awful, but it is stre cupboard clear out today to menu plan and write the shopping list and I hate doing it when she is running round my feet !! She complains about the food we have and says she doesnt like anything we suggest, but once its made and set in front of her she will eat it !!
    Oh well, try and get most of it done before she gets hom
    Just need to get the lazy bug*er out of bed :)

    Is Jasmine not at school MM, or have schools in NI not gone back yet?

    Oh and I sympathise about not being able to get things done, why is it when you WANT/HAVE to do something, they constantly interrupt you with "Can I have" "I want" "What you doing" "Come play with me" "MOAN MOAN WHINGE"

    You'd be able to do what they want quicker if they let you get on with it :)
  • She went back on 28th August, but never normally start anything till after lunch and she will be home for 2pm, so means I will have to start earlier !!

    ETA - the lazy bug*er would be my darling husband BTW, not Jasmine :)

    Oh lol, I thought you meant she was still snoozing in bed!

    Just make him keep Jasmine occupied. Is she sleeping at nights better? I'm having issues with Keira not sleeping in her own bed right now! Mind you, it's nicer to sleep next to her than OH, at least she takes up less room, farts less, and doesn't snore!

    Lol they won't have another app for that time at this short of notice, mornings are always heaving, I'd of preferred an afternoon one anyways, but they had to jiggle people around to fit me in so really unlikely I'd get another.

    I am BURSTING for the toilet, I am too embarrassed to use it whilst people are in the house. I have serious problems!

    Tine, I know not many on the pg thread were that into the idea, but I thought perineum massage might help with the current 'lack of room' situation down below?

    I found it very effective. I know your DH is big, but my baby's head was 35cm circumference! So there's hope :)
