    mel - my LO gets bad nappy rash when new teeth are on their way. It's a sure sign in our house! I have found metanium (try boots or morisons) to be brilliant - it cleared up bleeding sores to brand new bottom-ness in less than 24hrs. And it's not too pricey either. Sudocream and bepathen are rubbish when she's really bad. However, cream can be difficult when out and about changing wriggly babies so I have some bepathen wipes in my bag which are pricey, but a good travel option.

    we are back from our party - it was such great fun and santa came along with presents too :D We now have a gorgeous pull along wooden doggy which LO has fallen in love with! It's a very late tea for LO tonight - it's cooling right now. She's usually out of the bath and in her pj's by now! Hopefully a later bedtime will help her stay asleep all night tonight.....here's hoping.....

    OH has taken Rhys to his parents' house for the evening. I'm home along, awaiting a Tesco delivery between 8-10pm, fab homemade (by my Dad, not me!) 16 veg stew and dumplings waiting for me in the fridge :D

    Hi guys, hope everyone is ok.
    I'm ok, Ryry has been a nightmare, I've hardly had any sleep for days cos he's had earache, another tooth come through and god knows what else.
    He screamed for 3 hours the other night :(

    I'm sorry I know I dont come on here much and every time I do I'm moaning but I just need to get this off my chest.

    Basically because of everything that has gone on recently plus the numerous police referals, social services are now involved.
    They are basically saying that I need to get out of this situation now or they are going to hold a child protection conference and look to put the boys on the at risk register :(
    So I have to take the flat, I've basically got next to nothing choice.
    In a way it may be a good thing but I'm scared, they even said they will pay for the move and pay to furnish the flat because they think me and my boys are in too much danger to come back for our stuff.

    I just want to scream and cry and shout and smash things up, I am just in complete and utter turmoil, I never thought I'd ever be in a situation like this, I'm so angry at myself *cries*
