Other than that I've been plodding along, working and spending time in the sun
How are you and C?
ETA: Hi 3 - see above.
Hope your head clears before your appointment
How horrible for all this to have happened to you, and in a short space of time too!
Did the burglars take much, was it while you were home?Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,

Thanks for all the wishes. It's just a run of bad luck that will pass.
Mel - the burglary was back in April. We were in bed at the time. Mainly electrical items taken, things that can mostly be replaced and luckily are sorted now.
Oh, and congratulations to you and your family. Tea is gorgeous

They do warn you about it but like you say your completely out of it by that point. Get it checked out though to be safe :-)
That makes me feel a lot better.
M/w called me back and said pretty much the same thing but if im really struggling with the pain to call dr's and get some stronger painkillers.... and she did tell me to just lay around for the day as well :rotfl:Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
Ah I see, still, a horrible time for you all. Fingers crossed things are on the up for you now:)
Thank you, I think she is gorgeous too;)
I have informed tax credits, she is booked in to be registered on Monday, before ds1's sports day starts and I need to phone the church back at 1.30 to book naming ceremony...have I forgotten anything? Do Tax credits still inform child benefit....i'm sure they did when I had K last year!!!Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,

Hello NMS, Dora, Scruffy and everyone else! Nice to hear from those MIA.
Redstar – I think there is a chart on the first page of the Parent Thread with some of the babies weights. Not sure if anyone can view it or if you need to be part of it? Anyway, Holly was 11lb 14oz at 10 weeks, and she was 8lb 7oz when born so Freddy has definitely caught up. I don’t think you have anything to worry about.
And I have worked out that you posted about Amelie and called her “A” and that’s why I thought it was you who had an Anya!! Amelie is a lovely name (and film) too! X
My baby can crawl! She has been mobile for a while, but mostly shuffling about in a strange way, and crawling backwards. As of last night, she is crawling properly.
I am going out soon to buy some Huggies. Another 2 leaky nappies yesterday and 1 today. I had to strip her cot and dry out the mattress yesterday for the second one. I have no reason to think she is a "heavy wetter" as she has been fine up until recently, and it’s not just night time nappies – yesterday it was during her nap so nappy was only on for about 2 hours. I think her shape must just have changed and Pampers are no good anymore. One of the leaks was a Baby Dry nappy so it’s not just the Active Fit!
Where is Aless this morning? Not like her not to be on first thing.0 -
Yep for sure!redmel1621 wrote: »Yep Liverpool supporter all the way:D
I'm sure they could fill a few hours on just those two boring subjects alone;)
I applied for CB before I got round to Tax Credits so not sure

Mel, you have to send Tea's birth certificate off for Child Benefit. Did your MW leave you with a Bounty bag as the form should be in there (well it was way back in 2008! lol).
xx0 -
Ah they had run out of bounty packs...apparantly I will get one next week, on discharge. I don't remember sending anything off for K??
Oh yeah, doctors and dentist!!Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
