    I think this is me not quite understanding the question properly, but I never thought I'd:

    • experience this much love
    • be able to be concerned about the welfare of another human so intricately
    • enjoy practical tasks done over and over each day because it's for him
    • never thought I'd have a fergus
    • never thought I'd respect DH as a parent so much
    • never thought I'd have the capacity for 2 so soon, or even at all!
    • never thought I'd inhabit a house full of brightly coloured plastic !!!! and not mind
    • lose my memory but not be frightened
    • have an intricate design of red crayon looking lines on my belly and not mind
    • Feel close somehow to women from all walks of life, all jobs and all cultures and want to be a friend to them, just because they've done this too.

    Dh says it's my own fault I have a sore throat; I don't swallow... cheeky sod.

    And he is in a mood because dinner is tattie soup.

    Will he be jealous of us Tia?

    We're going out for steak nomnomnom :D

    I didn't really think of things I'd never do as a parent because I tend to overthink things and wonder what would happen if I'd backed myself into an I'll-never.... corner and not feel able to change my mind if I needed. But I never thought I'd have a c-section and kept saying so, I don't know if that counts?

    I like Weezl's list :)

    Jenny - if the maclaren has D rings (most prams do) then you can get the boots own harness and reins (or any other harness) and attach it :D

    Hi everyone! can't catch up because sis is obsessed with saving electricity and switched the wireless off at night when I planned to read while feeding Ed :p

    Weezl - my fairies have a large parcel to bring to you, it its too big for RM so when I send it it willshould arrive 2days later, are there any days that chez Weezl isn't available to receive deliveries?
