Its about quarter inch long and looks likes that plastic thread you get in jewellry making kits. Whats going on??? Is it a stitch thats working its way out?
x x x x
Thats a stitch. Are they dissolvable ones? If yes you can trim the bit thats sticking out. Or go to the Docs if you prefer.
I had a laparoscopy one year on the 22nd Dec and they stitched me so tight I couldn't stand up straight. I ended up cutting them out with a pair of nail scissors on xmas morning. Prob not recommended x0 -

Morning

How is everyone today?
Last night i changed Lily's nappy. About 5 mins later she does a massive exploding poop. So i changed her nappy again and she pee'd when the nappy was off and got her vest, so we changed her vest. Cue her screaming as she hates being undressed.
Then pooped again on the new nappy.
So on our 3rd nappy change she pee's again, but this time it gets on her sleeping bag. So we had to get the spare one and she screamed again as she hates being put in the sleeping bag.
But then she drank the rest of her bottle and went to sleep :j
SS - Oh no! What a stressful holiday! I would of wanted to stab the person on the plane in the back of the head to
I missed OBEM last night, i was going to watch it now but Lily has woken up. Its because i put her on the sofa to sleep as i got arm cramp. And she only likes sleeping in my arms during the day.
But she's just laying there looking around
And now she's screaming.. eep!0 -

I keep forgetting to say when you talk about Lily only sleeping on you. K was like that til he was about 3 mths then I realised it was the soft material of my housecoat he liked to snuggle into and not me after all
Hes got 2 blankets the same material that go everywhere with him now ( I just tell myself the blanket reminds him of cuddling mummy when he was small :A)0 -

Caz: sorry to hear, its always sad. (hugs)
on a totally unrelated note (and sorry, i know we were alkin about this the other day...) but I was feeding christopher some Readybrek today: how much do you give 7/8 months on average? I know they are all different, but christopher just sems to keep going and i dont want to overfeed him. lol. Katie always let me know when she had had enough, but Christopher has just ate 3 heaped tbsp of Ready brek with approx 100ml of his formula. it just seems an awful lot!??
I agree, elle. It's not worth having a b!tchy physio who discourages you when you and Rhys are doing so well.
Carla, Molly gets through about twice that sort of volume at breakfast, although I'm making baby cereal so it has fewer lumps in it (I may have overpurchase it while in the UK)

Ah, the multi-change. Babies are lovely, aren't they? :rotfl:
I'm feeling much better about being home, which in a roundabout way is worth the holiday. And it wasn't all bad, we went to Loro Parque and saw all sorts of awesome animals, and walked on a beach and went halfway up a volcano, and took Molly swimming, and walked and went on a little mechanical train thing and the last three days was pretty fun. The first two and the travel days were dreadful though - but we did have some fun and we have learned for future holidays. And I may have come to some enlightenment about my future work plans, although I am keeping this under wraps for the moment...Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76

Im not to sure, she seems to prefer my chest whatever im wearing. But she does like my dressing gown as she has a blanket with the same material and colour
Grr, OH forgot to put the rubbish out today. He forgot last week to! Will have to ask FIL to drive us to the tip to get rid of it.0 -
Why do I bother, just rang OH about problems with venue, listed what we could have and he hadn't listened and said 'oh well we could have blah then'. A 5 minute conversation to myself then!!!Too many children, too little time!!!

That's what "volunteering" to go to the hospital is about
(they seem to think I actually like home visits, but the hospital is ten minutes from our living room to their waiting room so I'm not all that fussed! He performs the same either way). There's another one based there who doesn't do home visits. Only met her once but she was nice enough.
They have real staffing trouble with the physio dept - there were three when Rhys was in hospital, slowly dwindled to zero by Christmas then they got two new ones - and there's a recruitment freeze on so no hope of getting more. All 2500 staff at our hospital got letters last month asking them to consider putting themselves forward for (early) retirement or less hours
