I have a very lush Carpenter in my house today, could really do with a 'diet coke break'!

Can you take a pic and post him on here? It's nice to share

Finally got my steriod nasal spray so hopefully the snot will ease. I ran out and forgot to collect the prescription on Monday and Tuesday, went on Wed afternoon but forgot the surgery closes for half day and was late getting back from work yesterday, so they had closed for lunch

Has anyone been to a parent and baby screening at the cinema? You can get free tickets with bepanthen

I'm just wondering if it's worth me buying a pack to get the free tickets.

lower leg-ness
i'm not sure if I've told you lot but basically Edgar doesn't walk 'right' he scrunches his toes up (chiropody) turns his foot inwards at the ankle (podiatry) flings his leg out and has a clicky hip (osteopathy and probably physio) so we're gonna have fun with appointments soon! :rotfl: you can see it on the video of him pushing his walker on FB if you want a snoop

Mine are great.. I have 4 with issues with legs etc.

1 congenital hip dysplasia.. diagnosed when she was 2.5 because I was a neurotic mother with extreme PND and took her to docs every 2 weeks with clicky hip, not moving her leg at all.. you know when you lay them on the floor and they kick? She only ever moved one leg and would cry if you moved the other.

The other 3 have hypermobility. 1 has dyspraxia which kind of counters the hypermobility so he isn't too bad, he is under OT, physio, endocrinologist (growth hormone deficiency) He also has learning difficulties just to add o the mix! 1 has cerebral palsy affecting the leftside of her body she also has a leg length discrepancy of 5/8th inch and her foot is a shoe size and a half smaller. Huge amount when you are 7 and tiny, she has growth hormone deficiency as well. She had talipes in both feet when she was born too.. she sees podiatry, physio, orthopaedics and endocrinologist. The youngest has severe hypermobility, tibial and femural torsion (twisted leg bones) severe curly toes which they want to operate on and I said no because it will need doing again if they do it now. She in toes something horrendous and over-flexes the joints to keep herself upright. She is under Physio, podiatry and orthopaedics.

I have now got them to give us double appointments rather than seeing them alternately.. we had them once 1 week apart.. weekly clinics.. and they got huffy when I rang and asked for them to be together on one of the weeks! I take 2 to most appointments now

As well as these I have one with continence problems, 1 with aspergers and an extra tear duct (sounds gross but is quite fascinating really) and another 2 that are fine!!

bodes well for the baby doesn't it?!

keeping in mind that I live in expensive London, it cost me £10 the one time I've been. Is a good way to see a film when you normally wouldn't get the chance. OR can be a good socialising thing if you meet another mum there or something.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Someone on EA's FB has put something about her daughter biting her toe :eek::eek:

It made me snort with laughter!!!

pfft, no such things in our town. But as aless says is a good way to meet other mummies and get to see a film, so yes i'd go for it.

Off soon for Contact Lense consultation, so no point in coming back to work is there

I had to let my battery run down then when I charged it it came back to life:D do you know if you press the 2 buttons together it saves a screen grab so you can plug it in and view the pic to see mfd's txt I had to do that when Glam txt me n it was black screened

Tara et al - you can't remove the battery of am iphone

Thanks everyone!

I went out for a walk to Asda. I've never walked to our Asda before , it's only 2 miles (each way) but i'm absolutely destroyed now!

I'm amazed at how much the Stokke shopping bag can carry too!

My phone battery is dead - I did the two button thing Sami, and have got a pic of a black battery with a red end. It's plugged into the laptop but doesn't seem to be doing anything!

lol pigpen, not much going on there then
Is this baby the first with your new partner?

The reason I'm so careful is OH's family all have hypermobility, my sister was born with hip dysplasia and I used to crawl flicking my leg out due to hyper mobility of that joint so I was expecting something to be not right with any sprogs we produce

LOL MFD, Ed bit my toe too!! he is very nippy like a puppy. I know I shouldn't but I do find it funny when he pins Chris down to try n bite him :o
