    Eveing :)
    Took Lily to the docs earlier about her eczema type rash thing. He said it looks like eczema and has given us a cream, he said he's going to hold off the steriod cream as if it gets worse the steriod creams wont work so well if we're already using it.

    Am about to list some of my wedding stuff on ebay, either that or DH throws it away :(

    He said he is being really ruthless with my "junk" and we're not taking it to the new house. So im going to try and sell it :D

    BM - :j that is fab news! I had to have pictures of my boobies taken before I had my op so I know how scary that can be! I so did not feel like a Page 3 model with my boobs out in a photo studio - I wish I had though! :p

    Weezl - could you ask OH when you should be concerned if baby teeth haven't come through? I'm not worried now but wonder if and when I should be worried! Ta very muchly :D

    SM - you so don't even need a tummy tuck so :p

    SJ - could it just be teeth? runny nappy and nappy rash? (not that I would know of course ;))

    Susan - you always have fab words of wisdom! I'm sure I had something I wanted to say to you cos I keep thinking 'Oh, I must remember to mention that to Susan' but I cannot for the life of me remember what it is! :o

    Beenie - You sent that text yet? :question:

    Em - I went into Smyth's Toy Store the other day and they had one for about £25 which was an umbrella fold but no idea how good it is. I have the Chicco one from the ASDA baby event for £50 and it's pretty good. :)

    A very smily post from me today :D

    he says he'd have expected them to start coming by 1 year.

    A possibility at that stage would be that they might x ray to check where they all are in the gum or they might wait til 2. Although it's hard to get a 1 year old to stay still enough for one!

    He says it wouldn't really mean anything unless you or OH had about 3 teeth between you ever, and that that might be inherited.

    I said from searchies pics on FB that you have very pretty teeth, so no worries there :)

    Thanks everyone! I've been smiling ear to ear today, just wish I had managed to get my weight lower for today, then I'd of only had to wait 18weeks max! Doh! Means I should get it around Xmas time though!

    Every area has different criteria for it, I asked the surgeon today and he said in Aberdeen, once you've met the criteria, you will get it as they get funding, but you do have to meet all 3 things that they ask. My stomach is an utter mess though, I was very glad I'd had a shave down below before I went and got the pictures taken (I made him assure me they would NOT end up on google!) had to stand their with my knickers down. By that point I knew I was going to get it, so I didn't really care about the pictures, because I feel like that's not going to be me this time next year. Let medical students gawp at my overhand all they like :D Goes in my file too, I will just die if I ever see those though :rotfl:

    He reckons it will take about 4/5 kilos off me when they do it, cut from side to side, up to the belly button removed and then that skin leftover there pulled down taut to my pubic bone. Sounds lovely doesnt it? Gets rid of some stretchmarks in the process though :p

    Beccles - From my mooching around websites about this sort of thing, Durham PCT are actually quite good about funding for this sort of thing. If you show it has a detrimental effect on your mental well being, and it's not just about asthetics (but to be fair, its about that to some degree, no-one wants to stuff their belly in their pants!)

    First step is getting your GP to agree etc. First GP I saw was a t1t, so I found a nice one!

    thanks weezl - I'm hoping he has a mixture of both our teeth cos I had a gap & a brace & OH has too many so a bit cramped.

    I can see the teeth under his gums so they are definitely there just not appearing yet *sighs*

    oh dear did searchie get one of me with my mouth open? :o
