    *whimpers with relief*

    Poor Molly's been asleep on me for two hours, I finally managed to get her into the bed before my bladder burst inside me. She's making little ouchie sounds in her sleep, it's heartwrenching.

    With my newly reinstated two hands, I am going to write tomorrow's to do list and then go to bed. She'll probably wake in the next hour but I shall snuggle in in readiness. I'm not bothering to change her clothes (soft shirt and trousers, no buttons) but I'll need to give her a fresh bottom after the night feed - bad planning on my part.

    I'll be between Liverpool and Manchester from the 21st (late) to the 3rd (early) and 15 minutes from Ikea if anyone's interested in a Christmas meeting.

    Think it's the wrong Ikea for me - I'm closer to the Manchester/Ashton one!
