    Why why why are pram chassis (what is the plural??) so big??

    Can't help other than to say that I looked up the plural of chassis the other day, as my brother had asked the very same question on his FB status! It seems the plural is also "chassis". :D

    Just saw the placenta teddy - guess it's just me who thinks it's a cool idea then! Wish I'd known about it before...

    Nah I'd not change the locks, I probably instigated the whole thing, but yeah he shouldn't of hit me, and his punch is pathetic anyways, I kneed him in the goolies and he vomited so he got the worse end of it.
    thats really not the way to look at it though :undecided

    OK, I have a little problem. DSD has just phoned to invite DH and I out for a meal with her, her boyfriend and his mum (and possibly his brother). She said 'I'm asking you now so that you've got time to get a babysitter'. I hope this doesn't sound awful but I don't want to get a babysitter. I haven't left her with anyone yet (only with DH for about 20mins!). There's no-one I'd be happy to leave her with. Would it be unreasonable of me to say I'm taking her with me?

    Lilia is just a little younger than yours and I wouldn;t leave her either - I haven;t even left her with OH. I'd just say she goes with you or you don;t go. I think that's reasonable at 3 months.

    MFD :grouphug: Will MIL take Benjamin for the odd day to let you get your tender sorted?

    I'm feeling similar about the house stuff getting on top of me and I'm, right now, trying to work out a day (amongst appointments) for my Mum to have Rhys for the day for me :o (ETA: And, yes, I hate the idea of "palming him off" on someone else for the day but for the sake of my sanity, I think I need to... and so you do *hugs*)

    *nasty pokes* to DH :p
