Hi, apologies if you already know this [look away if your eating] Kiddies can get nasty nappies when they are bunged up as they are not properly able to get rid of mucus like we are [through our noses or coughing it up] so it travels down through the system, into their tummy and out the other end. If he doesn't have any other symptons it good be this or I could be talking nonsense and he might have a tummy bug but I do hope not.
HTH Helen x

Well I didn't know that - learn something every day don't you! Many thanks. He's been eating fine; I gave him Calpol before bed as he was a bit warm and also gave some Ventolin. I think he's asleep now as very quiet upstairs (phew!)

Ishtar, sending positive thoughts for your Mum and ((hugs)) for you to help you look after her whilst she's understandably anxious.

Dusty - Where do you take your ski lessons, is it on an artificial slope?

I go to Hemel snow Dome - real snow (well I guess it is artificial) not that horrible carpet brush stuff which they have at the slope in our town.

Ishtar positive thoughts for you and your Mum

I've had enough of packing for today, about half way there. Going to do some ironing so that I can come home to an empty basket.

Congrats Grateful

flipping heck Triker - KH has has THREE relationships in about that time - hardly gives the kids chance to get their heads around it, does it? Does it make a difference if they are resident with the parent at all?

KH is having the kids (DD at least) tomorrow night so I can go out and stay over at my colleagues in Sheff !
