She just finished her snotty nose and barking cough though Krystal, so maybe it's because of that? I did the NHS website thing and it just told me calpol!

Does Aimee get a lot of urine infections? Luckily Keira doesn't wipe back to front though sometimes you have to march her back into the bog and actually wipe and why she has the need to fling the toilet roll after she has wiped herself, not look, not flush, wash her hands though, then I go in the bathroom and stand on her scrunched up wee tissue. EWWWW

There isn't a lot you can do with fever other than calpol anyway, antibiotics are only effective on a bacterial infection... Most fevers are viral (cough cold types)

Aimee went through a real bad phase of infections every other week (one sample even grew E-coli :eek:) and we had referals to the paedatrician and kidney scans etc to check there was nothing underlying... It turns out it was exactly what I said it was (with my medical degree lol) she holds herself too long... and when she was younger she would hold herself until she could hold no more... Pee in her pants a bit and then hold for a bit longer... Thankfully she's a lot better but I do still have to remind her to go when she's jiggling around...

Actually no Susan, I just have to be below 27 for them to even accept my application, I fit all the criteria (if I shift those pesky 3lbs) plus Im hoping my revolting leaking infectious belly button, adds some err weight to my overall issue.

Oh that's good as 27 is much closer. Do they round it down if it's 27.4? I only qualified for extra growth scans when pregnant because they rounded it down - I was actually 0.3 above the qualifying BMI.

That happened to me when pregnant - I was utterly embarrassed

Thanks Hammy but at your flat tummy. I have a little pouch of loose skin but most of the fat is gone.

Molly keeps complaining about her sore mouth and I'm mortified now that it might have been someone else who reported us and who thinks we'd actually hurt her.

Well Susan I'm hoping they round down or PREFERABLY the surgeon doesn't weigh me next week. I'll just say I'm retaining water + Constipated + a big lunch = Really am slimmer - honest!

That sounds painful Krystal! I'm not sure I've had urine infections, I used to get this horrible feeling after having a pee, and then it felt like I had to pee again and it was just an awful sensation.

My mum get's cystitus a lot and I told her it's because she keeps wiping poo up her foof and not peein enough and she didn't talk to me because I said she had a poo'y muff! She still isn't talking to me, she goes to Doncaster tomorrow. SM meet her at the station and give her a slap from me

SS- What is WRONG with your neighbour? Does he not realise babies cry and sometimes scream in pain because y'know they get colic, and sore heads, ears and mouth like the rest of us?

I was thinking about baby signing - does anyone have any experience with this?

I took Charlotte to a group which was mainly baby massage which I wanted to learn, but they did a bit of baby signing at the end. It was ok, but I found it was easier just to teach her to gesture then speak as I did with the boys.

I don't think I've ever spent that much on clothes in a year. Surely it's not that extreme is it?

I'm like that! In 2009, I can only recall buying some new strappy tops and linen trousers for our holidays, but they were all from cheap places like Primark, Peacocks etc. Probably replaced other bits and bobs as they wore out too but I can't think of anything specific. I hate clothes shopping though and normally get bored after one shop and want to go home

My little angel slept from 9 til 9 :T He woke twice for feeding but went straight back to sleep . He has his 2nd lot of jabs today - a week late - do you give calpol before the jabs?

Anyone heard from Boogelly lately?

Probably too late now but it was in the news recently that you shouldn't give calpol before the jabs as it decreases the effectiveness of the vaccines. Only give pain relief if they seem unwell afterwards (wont change effectiveness then).

Sounds like a urine infection - they can resolve themselves without antibiotics especially if you drink plenty.

Had a lovely day today with SM and NMS Caitlyn eventually slept going down the M1, after crying solidly and whole-heartedly for the first 15 minutes!

So far it is taking DH 1 hr 20 mins to come down 1 junction of the motorway *rolleyes*. Have phoned him 4 times and texted him to tell him his tea is out (that was about half an hour ago). So now it's stone cold and bloody serves him right :mad:
