Em, I know it won't help for tomorrow, but could you persuade your nan to sign up for one of the chemist delivery things? We get Rhys' meds delivered to the house because some have to be ordered in, so it saves me picking up the prescription, dropping it off at the chemist, then having to go back after a few days to pick it all up

I hadnt heard of that? She gets it taken straight to the chemist so its ready to pick up rather than getting it from the surgery and taking it to the chemist though. Not that it really makes any difference as the surgery is outside the shopping centre that the chemist is in :rotfl:
I am wondering if it would be safer in the car than to try and risk the icy slope I got stuck on before...

Aless, Rhys gets up between 10.30am and 11am if left to his own devices. Admittedly, he only goes down in his crib at 1am but that's what suits us (I know a lot of people don't agree... MFD is probably having a fit by now! )

I sometimes think I am actually quite a mean mummy altogether actually, when I see the things some of you do with your babies, like Weezl singing our posts to Fergie and now MFD's bedtime routine. I play with Seth with his toys but he doesnt like cuddles, he doesnt seem entertained enough by just me unless I tickle him and if I sing to him he looks at me like I am deranged! He may have a point, actually...
He would rather have the cats to play with than me

We have a Lloyds Pharmacy and a local independent pharmacy who'll pick up prescriptions from the surgery and deliver to the house here Just need to phone the surgery receptionists and they should be able to tell you which pharmacies they're linked up with Just had a look on Lloyds website - can't find mention of it on there, but there are posters and leaflets about it when you go in

I think El is finally settled after counting to about 200 in blocks of ten. It's so sweet listening to her counting. It's all mixed up!

I'll have a look in our local one then, they pick up the prescriptions so so hopefully they should do the delivery thing too! Will be one less thing to think about. Although the chances of her needing them precisely in the middle of snow/ice days again are very slim! It isnt like her to run so close, she normally makes sure she has a "float" of at least a week or two. She had a fall in the garden on the same ice day I got stuck in, so she hasnt been out of the house much, but I could have requested the prescription for her

I'm such a cr*p mummy - our bedtime routine consists of change, bottle (by Marley whilst I pump) and up to bed. No singing (that's a daytime thing); no reading (yet). And he's left to squawk This all generally happens around 6-7pm.

Before DS went back to school and when he was going to bed at about 11pm or even midnight (lol) i would feed Amber at 7am, then go back to sleep til 10:30am when DS woke up.

Bedtime routine for us is change nappy and into sleepsuit at 7pm, lie quietly with me or Chris with Jasmine reading a story to him till 7.30 then one of us puts him in his sleeping bag while the other makes up his bottle and gives him his meds, then bottle and bed with his light show music thing playing which lasts for 2 mins.
He usually talks to himself for a couple of mins and goes to sleep fairly easily and thats him till about 8am
