    Krystal where did you get the pwetty bag from? I'm jealous, i don't even know what kind of bag it is but I love bright colours :D

    The fluoride thing - My dentist is good at fixing your teeth but he is pants, I swear since I started brushing my teeth the way he said, I have receded a gum! Anyhoo i asked him about fluoride in toothpaste and he said to keep using kids stuff at 500pp (or whatever it is!) and I told him that most kids toothpastes have more than that, and I told him the stuff he was selling was 1000! Keira keeps getting free toothbrushes and tubes of paste from nursery - it's 1000pp, so we just use that. Wish they would add it to our water though!!
    I won it in a competition!! :D It's from this company...

    (Som, it arrived this morning... It's already clipped to my buggy lol)

    And how comes Kiera gets free toothpaste? Skanky area? My Step sister is getting free driving lessons off her sure start... I mentioned it to the parent thingy at our surestart on Monday... She said "You got free baby gates, what more do you want?" Well driving lessons obviously... ;)

    Good luck for your nephew tomorrow :( I hope they get good results today. Chemo can work wonders ;)



    D had infected eczema but it a lot better now so hopefully E will be feeling much better soon . I love his funny ways :D



    I would love the disposable bibs if they are still available :A

    Glad to hear Fergie has some new medication! Nice to see you posting again Weezl!
    The bibs are yours, PM me your address and then wait a week till D gets paid and I'll post em out lol...

    My Aunt went through Chemo last year, I gratefull she's in remission from her cancer, it's just the thought of C having it as rough as she did :( But it's still better than the alternative ay...

    And thank you all for your good wishes and vibes, means a lot!!! :)

    Tia, you needs class... I don't... I'm a dead classy bird innit ;)

    MM, I'll need one for at least another 12months... And then there's No3 to consider...

    Wonder if I'll get a fiver for my samsonite bag... Cost D £50 when C was born...

    Krystal.. children are so much more resilient than adults when it comes to such harsh treatments.. he will be fine you'll see! 1 of DD1's friends is on her 3rd lot of chemo and is so full of life (though lacking energy!) and so happy.. she makes you feel bad for feeling bad for her!

    Fairies.. The sling has arrived.. thank you..

    £10 off £50 plus free del on Tesco clothing here >M73KH8AEU<

    Horrible tummy cramps and I'm so bloated I almost had a heart attack when I saw myself in the mirror :(

    Just gave myself a second heart attack thinking it's been fifteen minutes since I put lunch in the oven and wondering if the kitchen was on fire. But since I forgot to do more than turn the oven on it's all fine except I'm starving and have to wait a bit longer.

    ITV lunch news at some point in a bit will have an "expert" on to tell us that letting babies cry is bad for their health.

    SS - will writing a complaint make you feel any better/take your mind off delayed lunch? Watch this "expert" telling irish mothers that you shouldn't let a baby feed on demand and should get them in a routine from birth! :eek: http://www.tv3.ie/videos.php?video=21559&locID=1.65.74

    Sami.. I love thoe 'experts.. I do wonder what they would have done with DD1 though who screamed 24/7 for months and months on end.. NOTHING shut that child up.. she screamed consantly..she was 6 months old before her dad held her because she hated him.. she only wanted me, and carried on screaming when I held her/fed her/changed her.. if she had been first we wouldn't have got a number 2!!

    Caitlyn was like that for her first 2 months Pigpen... We didn't call her miserable baby for nothing ;)

    Hammy, you might be OK... I've squashed them into an envelope small enough to pass for a first class stamp (of which I have 1 in my purse) just depends if it will squeeze through the little board in the post office lol... I shall pop in on my way to the school...

    And nice try... But no cigar... (or bag ;))
