    MFD, Body Shop hemp hand cream! Smells a bit funky but is the best I've used by far!

    Reminds me. We had our Body Shop delivery and Lucky Lucy enjoyed her surprise.

    Thanks for the heads up a week or two ago :beer:

    As I say, I can't speak for other dads. My brother is hopeless at things that men and women are supposed to be able to deal with and should never have had kids.

    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...

    MOTM, from my experience, a man will deal with things if he has too, usually when mum is about, he doesn't have too. I've sheltered my DH in a way, he hasn't had to deal with it because he took it hard when Chris was initially diagnosed and I could be strong for myself, but not both of us. Don't get me wrong, he is great and will fight like a wolf to get what shortie needs, but I'm the one who has taken him to reviews and appointments and sat with him in hospitals and censored all the scary stuff when they tell you worst case scenario. I'm also the one who has spoken to other parents with children like Chris so have always had a cleared view of the future we can expect. But then, I have created a monster cos now 4 years worth of it is hitting him.

    Anyway, this is wayyyy too deep, so I will say that I am off to bed to have some kinky dreams about... hmm... who am I into right now... mleh, Daniel Craig will do for tonight I suppose, seeing as how husband is snoring on the couch, again.
