    Sami, we have to keep a diary for a year. But he's been doing it since he was 2, this i the longest it has went on for though, usually it's 4 days max. He's been saying his knees are hurting just before bed too, don't know if maybe he is having a growth spurt or his muscles are getting very stiff, but then why would that cause him to be sick?
    Aww bless him, I hope the knees thng is just growing pains and I won't hold my breath for a solution for the sickness :(

    right must get a wriggle on, I have fairies to send on their way before meeting ladies with babies.
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Poor Charlie. Let us know what the doctor says Caz?

    My [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] research assistant got a shock today. My boss had managed to double-book himself so each of us was due an hour-long meeting with him, and [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] was certain that because he was bringing Important Scientific Data he'd win. But I'm the senior on the project so I got the meeting slot and [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] is thoroughly peeved because he genuinely thinks he's more important even in a country where the hierarchy is all important.

    But most of my stuff for today is done and so I am sneaking off for a leisurely lunch out with my lovely Molly and some other less important people. Oh and I've just seen the FB picture of Tara's DD and DD cuddling and am all misty eyed.

    gadz, rivers of snot.... Green is usually a sinus infection of some sort. He'll no doubt be fine now.


    Well, princess poop is awake and wanting lunch, so best go and get the boys fed too. She's really started to grab at things now, lunging at them :D And her favourite toy at the moment... an empty pack of wipes :D She will sit for ages crinkling it up.

    back from DR
    she was running late which was just as well as just as i was putting his coat on, he brought up more milk and bit of phlegm.
    so shechecked his chest, says its sounded fine, so relieved bout that.
    looked at his ears, said they are ful of wax .... (how the hell am i meant to clear them out??) didnt give me any advice on how to clear the wax out. i use a cotton bud when i can get to the wax (looks like its oozing out by then sorry tmi)

    and said has a slight ear infection so put him on anti-biotics.


    then went to chemist, gave me a syringe to use for the meds, got home and he's to have 2.5ml 3timesa day. so they gave me a syringe for 5ml!!!!
    luckily i kept the ones from when he was having trapped wind.

    Awww poor baby. Least he has magic medicine to make him better now. Leave his ears, not much you can do and they will clear when the infection is done with.

    I've been saving envelopes with windows because Molly's fascinated by the crinkly versus noncrinkly bit.

    Right, must dress the monster and take her out.

    Morning all..

    Rhys seems fine in himself but has a very snotty nose and has refused breakfast. Thought it might be because I'd mixed something new with his weetabix but he still didn't want it when I made him new plain weetabix :( Will try again in a bit. For now, he's munching on his own hands and shrieking! :cool:

    Hope all the poorly babbas and bigger ones are feeling brighter soon :)

    Beccles - You are so close to finishing! At least your mum is very supportive. Why isn't Craig? Have you asked him? I remember you have said before he works full time etc, but so do you! You are doing uni, a job, the kids and the 2 dogs. You deserve an award lady!!

    Jillie - Not sure how you are supposed to clean the wax! I remember when Keira was a baby, it did used to just come out in lumps that you could pick out. I haven't cleaned her ears in forever because I'm too scared I'll poke the bud down too far!

    Keira has never had antibiotics. If I had ran to the doctors every time my mum told me though she probably would of had some. "omg a cough, go to the doctors!!" "She sneezed twice, DOCTORS SHE NEEDS MEDICINE" Yeah she needs a tissue.

    Hopefully she doesn't ever take after me, I always feel like crud!

    My diet is terrible right now and still not managed to loose any weight, time is running out. Just been stressed out with the cat, the broken ps3, the broken ds, OH leaving doors open in the morning when Ive told him so many times TO CLOSE THE EFFING KITCHEN AND CUPBOARD DOORS.

    WHY CANT HE JUST DO IT?! It takes a second to close a door after you.

    It sounds petty, but it's not just that, it's everything, and he just doesn't absorb the info. I need the doors closed because I don't want the cats in the cupboards/kitchen, raking and leaving hairs everywhere, and maybe eating crap they shouldn't. Archie only managed to eat that dress because he had left the cupboard open again.

    If it's not that, then it's leaving his mucky clothes on the floor, not putting plates away. Last night he made dinner but didn't clean up after making a mess, my white cooker is covered in chilli powder stains, because it's not enough to pour half a tub of chilli powder INTO the chilli, but he has to cover the cooker too.

    He really frustrates me because he is a child, with the not listening. He just doesn't understand consequences or maybe he just doesnt care because he would gladly live in a pig sty like his mothers house.
