Hmmm - I don't know them, but they look alright!
OH is a big paranoid security freak and doesn't trust anyone! But the smell of the window sealant is starting to annoy me now, and I need to go to the post office.

I'm assuming you have some kind of contract/contact details for them and you didn't just drag them in this morning as they were passing??? I'm sure it'll be fine for 10 min!

Grr, stupid postman just knocked the door and I'm feeding Isla so jumped up, put my boob away and ran out to see a parcel being shoved through the letterbox. I opened the door and he thrust a bigger parcel at me then walked off but as I'm bent down picking the first one up he shoves a big letter through too! (I'm only peeved because it hit me )

Sami - the leggings I bought off ebay have just come, their really cute I got size 80 and it'll be a while before they fit Isla I think. For anyone else who has a cloth bottomed little one I think they'll be really good as their very stretchy.

And Isla's jeggings are here too! So sweet but no way I was paying £22 in topshop for a pair, these were in a bundle off ebay with a lovely next dress and two other item's. And last night I won 20 items of next and m&s in 6-9 months for £1.47 :money:

so HE thinks it could be glucose intolerance (is that like diabetes?!!)

It's like pre-diabetes. You still have to have a low sugar diet but it's not as strict as diabetes so you can still have small amounts of sweets/cake/biscuits etc. You'll have to have a glucose tolerance test to check that. You have to fast over night, then have bloods taken in the morning. They give you a minging gloopy syrup drink, then you have more bloods taken a couple of hours later.

Back from the shops and skint now. Boys enjoyed it and they got some nice stuff. Bought some new towels for the bathroom, some shocking pink underpants for Craig and a really cute pink and grey t-shirt for Charlotte with "I love football" written on it

Yes, they were just passing this morning with a van load of windows going spare, so I dragged them in! :rotfl:

I'll go, as soon as she wakes up. I'm sure it'll be fine. I'll make them a brew before I leave.

maz, why don't u try putting her to bed much earlier? She's so hard to put down because she's overtired, so moving up the bedtime will help. It sounds like since she's not getting enough naps she's just gotten so tired cumulatively over the past weeks she doesn't know what to do with herself. I'll warn, it takes a few days for it to work as their bodies have to readjust. We're a bit radical here chez Aless...Finn was going down at half 7 but then started waking up loads, so i figured that was too late for his natural cycle, so the past 3 nights, i've put him down at 6! Last night was the best in weeks, so it seems to be working. Since u had been doing half 8, u might try 7 or even earlier! I was surprised he went down so easily at the new bedtime, which showed me that he actually was tired at that time and i hadn't realised.

Sorry for the novel. (p.s. We also swaddle - soon stopping - and use a white noise machine.)

K is in bed and asleep for 6.45pm/7pm every night. theres no way I could keep him up later even if I wanted too! He gets very grumpy and overtired. He gets bathed in the mornings cos hes too tired at night.

Aless we still occasionally resort to swaddling now and Isla's nearly 21 weeks. I've read that 'they' don't recommend it but 'they' aren't here trying to calm a fractious (sp) overtired girly

Yeah Beccles they did say I have to not munch for 12hours. Didn't mention going back again? Tsk.

Boogey if you don't mind Id like to see those sites? Could you PM me please

Thing is, no-one in my family and even my dads side has hair loss, so I don't think its an hereidatary thing (in my case) but my diet is terrible, I did those xenical pills and didn't take a multi vitamin with it, I make myself sick, my nails are all white marked, Im just generally not a healthy person so If the tests come back clear then I know what I have to do

Eat better
Take some vitamins
Drink water and ditch the diet coke
Stop binge eating.

There, I got a plan already! I have my hair in bunchies today and the woman in the shop asked for ID and I was like "Im 22 and you served me about 4 days ago?" she said "OH didn't recognise you, thought you were about 15" DURRRRRRRRRR

Oh poor charlie El is the same she is still in the same nappy pants from last nite as they are not wet. I'm not too concerned yet, she is sleeping at the mo so I suppose that is doing her good. She has nothing left to be sick on and is just retching.

I blame Time Twisters to:eek:

BM thats a shame bout your hair. hope the docs can figure out whats causing it.

NewM I'd try what sami suggested and try feeding lying down if you haven't already

3, I go out when workmen are in the house. If I know who they are like. Just say you will only be 5mins

Caz, call the GP back, say he hasn't peed and is really lethargic. If they don't listen, call NHS 24.

you're all bad, I have money in paypal... burning...
