    MFD, are you sitting a lot in an office chair? Could it be blood pooling down there, not enough to swell your ankles, but enough to get sensation in your feet? Maybe some sort of excersise for your feetsies would help? Or some food doctor spray (just cos its lush).

    Dinner is on, house is once again reasonably tidy (for now). Remind me that DS1 has anchor boys tonight, I always forget because it's right when Amber gets ready for bed.

    HO just rang, she said she went next door.

    The girl next door had said she is "sleep deprived" (OH!!!! You mean like i f*cking was when i had a newborn and had no one to share the night feeds with??) and so tries to grab sleep during the day and therefore doesn't make noise.

    I said "well that's a lie"
    She said "well i can't call her a liar"
    I said "well i can!! Unless she sleeps through Rihanna playing full blast??"

    She said there's a TV nearish to the adjoining wall and regarding my theory that the thunder noise was a war type game, she said there was a console but unplugged and girl said they were repairing it for her dad and not using it.

    LIES!!!!!!!!

    Anyway, we'll see how it goes. :mad:

    Anyway, they've driven me to drink. :rotfl:

    Nah i'm having a bottle of pear cider, it's nice! Shame there's not enough of it to get me drunk :rotfl:.
    Am having a chow mein tonight courtesy of Asda chillers. With prawn toast and satays.
    That's because DS mate is here for tea and he ONLY eats chicken nuggets & chips and i cba eating that. (As if you'd let your kid dictate he eats junk every day?) And he eats NO veg, seriously. Not one!! I can't get over that. He'd be getting starved if he were mine.

    Beenie, have EH not recorded it?

    My cheese sauce looks a bit like latex paint (you know, the kink stuff), so dinner may be interesting. The tesco cheese so doesn't work....

    Are your feet getting hot? Are you wearing uncomfortable tights? Are you used to being barefoot or in slippers at home? Or are you getting literal itchy feet to go home to your boy (see above ;))?

    No tights, my feet are hot but nothing covering the itchy bit. I am wearing shoes but they are nowhere near the itchy bit.

    I am sat in an office chair and it could be pooling I guess, seeing as it is happening in the afternoon each day.

    I am definitely itching to be home with my boy! And on that note I think I might p1ss off early, tomorrow is Thursday after all (and I will be working at home this evening :( )

    Was busy doing the usual million and one jobs to get the boys out to school this morning and I noticed Charlotte had vanished. Went into the hall and she was up on the landing. I asked what she was doing and she said proudly "I've just been for a wee all my myself" and then added "and I washed my hands as well" :rotfl:It's the first time she's gone up by herself and managed with her clothes.

    Can you send Charlotte here to help train Henry :rotfl:...

    back from clinic and William is now 17lbs 6ozs and 19 weeks which is about 7 ozs lighter than Henry was at the same time..... then we went to the park and OH met us to bring us home, washing in from the line and need to sort LO's bag for tomorrow at nursery... Ooo 4hrs to myself what shall I do :think: oh yeah got to go for smear!!(sorry TMI) what an exciting life!!!

    It's red with white polka dots, so no ditsy flowers in sight! One review on the Kiddicare website said she was using it for her son and it looks unisex enough once he was in it! They are dear though and don't seem to have made it to the second hand market yet!

    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.
