Oh deary, just had a right situation - it required a bath (for Rhys, not me!), put it that way.. Lordy, where was he storing all that?! _pale_ Anyways..

MM, just don't blame me when your head's swimming with all the figures!

Thankyou Bruno, Krystal and everyone else.. Am sure I'll snap out of it soon - have thrown open the patio doors to let the fresh air and sunlight in It's so sunny here I almost blinded myself hanging out the bright white muslins on the line! :eek:

£210 to last 15 days? We have less than that to get us through the month!

I've put baby einstein on the tv... Caitlyn loves it!

I dunno where it all goes! I'd bad for nipping by the shops and coming out with stuff I don't need.

My skin is so awful today, It's all red and inflamed all around my mouth/cheeks, the acne scars look angry and pitted (ugly!) my own fault because, spots I don't mind, but you know those little white bumps under the skin? It's like congestion? Well it's really bad around my mouth/cheeks, so I've been squeezing all the gunk out.....:o I look like I've been sniffing glue. Oh the shame.

I really hate those white bumps though, even when you wear foundation etc (not that I do very often) you can still see that your skin isn't "smooth"

Hopefully should clear up now the implant is out, the doctor also gave me dianette, better work! Oh yes and my periods stopped 2hours after the implant came out yesterday. It feels weird not having a tampon in!

Right... New plan... Take the parcel to the post office that I meant to post last week and completely forgot about because it became mixed in with all the under the stairs crap (just found it during the present hiding expedition) Fetch Aimee from school... Rush down to the Drs and hope we'll get there in time for clinic (there's a 10min window between school ending and clinic ending... Fingers crossed Aimee gets out on time!) And then let Aimee play at the park that's behind the Drs for half an hour... Hoping Caitlyn might be sleepy or at least settled enough to lie there so I can read my book for 10mins in the nice sunshine...

Dianette worked for me, BM. They don't let you stay on it for too long though - think I was on it six months to help my skin clear up then the GP wouldn't prescribe it anymore so I changed to another Pill. Spots came back but nowhere near as badly as before..

Uh oh, I think there's another situation to deal with.. I love my child, I love my child, honestly I do! :whistle:

My little man was due a feed about an hour ago, and is still sound asleep in his pram after we walked to the shop !! Oh well, it gives us a better bed time tonight, he went up too early last night and then got up at 6.15 this morning !!

Tax credits - you do get extra depending on the number of children you had. I was shocked at the increase you get when you have a third child, compared to my claim for two children considering our income has remained roughly the same.

Don't suppose they're taking into account that you might need a bigger car.. You could need a bigger car on safety grounds to fit in all the car seats they legal say you have to have, I guess. Whereas they wouldn't fund a bigger house cos they say children can share rooms up to X age, iyswim.
