    Caz, how old is Charlie again? And does he have Autism (forgive me if I'm wrong)?
    Charlie just turned 2 in jan, we dont have a diagnosis as the phycologist told us we were bad parents? i think the nursery were talkin ADHD? TBH i dont know and am keeping an open mind until they all decide!
    What's for you won't go past you
  • Aw hugs Dora - I hope you begin to feel better soon. I had a mega chest infection whilst pregnant and was put back on preventative and relieving inhalers when Liam was 6 weeks old. I felt awful after not needing one for over 6 years, but I'm really bad I haven't kept up using them.

    I have the same worries about Liam being too much for my Mum & Dad. Will you get any extra help from tax credits if your child costs increase?

    Fab modelling there Tia :)

    That's shocking - clearly you aren't because your other four children aren't like that but imagine if they say that sort of thing to people who don't have other children who prove that it's not just them? Have you considered making a complaint about it?

    That was quick PP i posted yesterday late afternoon! didnt expect it to be there so fast! I hope it fits :D

    We had the HV here at the time and i asked the phycologist to leave, we were all to have copies of her reports but they never appeared so the nursery are chasing this up for us. The HV/doc/nursery all agree that there is something but to what degreee etc they cannot give us an opinion until the assessment is complete. They also do not like to 'label' at such a young age?

    Aw hugs Dora - I hope you begin to feel better soon. I had a mega chest infection whilst pregnant and was put back on preventative and relieving inhalers when Liam was 6 weeks old. I felt awful after not needing one for over 6 years, but I'm really bad I haven't kept up using them. It felt really weird using it? Not sure why though as DH is asthmatic and uses both preventative/relieving ones daily.

    I have the same worries about Liam being too much for my Mum & Dad. Will you get any extra help from tax credits if your child costs increase?
    Chance would be a fine thing. We earn too much, I said to DH that he would have to start doing childcare vouchers aswell through his work. Apparently his dad told him that if this were to happen he would give us the extra money (i'm not supposed to know this but as me and DH don't have secrets he told me) but I would feel mega guilty taking £100 off them every month as MIL doesn't work and FIL is close to retirement but they don't have a dot of money put away and they are going to have to sell up as they won't be able to afford the mortgage on the state pension. Neither of them have works pensions due to the nature of business they are in/were in, but thats a whole other story.
