    Beenie, is there anywas you could get someone independent to witness the noise? Like the HV for instance or could you invite the housing officer round at a time its likely to be bad? Or do you have PCSO's who patrol who would witness it?

    As for your PND score and seeing the GP, does it matter whether its PND or depression related to your 'overall circs' as long as you get some help with it?

    Must admit when Millie has kids for tea I generally cook junk cos I cannot be fussed with making other peoples kids eat veg, I've enough on with my own! Although hidden veg spag bol works usually too.

    ETA: just got an e-mail, but HiPP Organic are running a comp for tickets to the Baby Show in B'ham. :)
    Ta, I've entered about 43 competitions for the baby show... I better win some bloody tickets! :cool:
    The tops of my feet are really itchy. They get so about this time every day. Nothing is touching them. I know itchy feet-tops is bad in pregnancy - is it okay in normal everyday life?
    Hope so, happens to me all the time... Although from further posts... It's probably because I sit around a lot...

    Hello everyone, I have read up and I celebrated and comiserated where appropriate... Nobody go getting the hump for not replying individually ;)

    Had a long day here... Caitlyn woke at 4:30 so I pulled her in bed with me for a feed... 5am hubby's alarm went off... 5:10 hubby's second alarm went off... 5:15 hubby's faffing around and turning lights on... 5:30 Hubby comes thundering up the stairs, whispers that he needs my help and where do you turn the water off for the dishwasher... I went down and water is shooting out of the back of the dishwasher (which is in the middle of the floor) he's pulled it out to far and overstretched the pipe.... I turned the water off and threw all the old towels down to soak up the swimming pool, tried to go back to bed but the cat started yowling as soon as Hubby left for work so I just gave it up as a bad job...

    Still, I was up early enough to have a shower, put on makeup, feed and dress the girls, make aimee's lunch bag up, peg out and be ready for my friend coming round to give me a lift to a coffee morning!

    Beenie, my neighbours are complete shitheads too but at least I don't have to put up with noise from them... I'm right here wishing the fleas of a thousand camels infest their bedding!

    Mfd, I'm already getting real tear wails from Caitlyn when I take something from her she shouldn't have... Coupled with Aimee's random wails for whatever's upset her today it makes it really fun in this house!

    We're supposed to be going to a carvery for tea tonight seeing as Hubby ruined my kitchen he was going to pay... But Aimee had 3 seperate tantrums on the way home from school and another when we got in and I told her we weren't going out to dinner... I feel I'm being more punished than her though... Not only do I not get to go out to dinner, I had to cook for the children too...

    I'm having a chinese once she's in bed... Which will be earlier than normal tonight!!!

    3, well done on V's walking! Caitlyn keeps toddling and falling... Her little knees are all bruised up now, can't wait until she gets better at it!
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    pool-wise, the eco one from pool in a box was very fab, due to padded bottom, space for OH, easy to purchase liners, and great if you get a thermometer too. Oval shape is good too cos you can stretch out longways but there's still room for the MWs table (IYSWIM?)
    I must measure the kichen to see how much space we have. (And get OH to pu the other blind up in there!)

    I have just looked up milliard on wikipedia and now my brain has overheated and is no more :o:D
    1 milliard = 1 American billion
    1 billion = 1 American trillion

    I only know about it because it was the answer we couldn't get in a crossword a few years ago.

    Ooooooooooooh, FOUR BABIES in ONE PICTURE!!!

    It's like Christmas, so it is :D
    Alice liked it too. She said, "Look at all the babies. Can I watch them on the television? All the babies are sitting on their Mummy's knees because they don't want to sit in the baby chairs."

    She did a PND check on me too (is this standard for a weaning chat?? lol!) and said i scored 20/30 so need to see GP asap for some pills... She's gonna ring the housing woman too. Not sure what she's going to say but she thoroughly dissaproved of the restraining order comment. Thanks for all your replies, not sure i feel strong enough to go into battle with her via complaints though. Even the HV said this woman has an abrupt manner but this will work in my favour if we can get her on board.
    I do love how she just said get some pills, no offer of counselling etc the nhs sucks :(
    hope the others here can help you with the housing thing:)
    Ambertronic would be needing this one then :p
    hmm can I get away with that for Ed? :think:

    Suasn there is a handy 'equipment list' for homebirth on here http://www.homebirth.org.uk/marycronk/ I wouldn't be surprised if you already know of Mary, she is fab!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
