    Foreign (non-EU?) licences are only usable for a year then you need to take a UK test - something like that. It's v annoying, OH doesn't want to be tested here so can't drive now.

    Hello ladies,

    Just a flying visit from me :) Wee James has had an operation today but is now back in nicu and responding well, yesterday his body had all swollen up and they couldn't get a line into him anywhere and couldn't administer any pain relief to him so he was a very sad poorly boy :( Hopefully thing's will look up for him from now on.

    I've been at the dentist this morning and had a filling redone so have been walking around with a numb face all day and barely able to eat, I had a banging headache at about 2pm then realised I hadn't eaten all day :o I've also pulled my finger out and listed some England tutu set's on ebay, Isla found it most amusing that I was encouraging her to have a dummy for the photo as she doesn't have a clue how to suck one so kept pulling it out of her mouth making 'pop' noises :rotfl:

    SJ/Sami/3/Mel - and anyone else who's going to sling meet on the 23rd :) The lure of SJ's cupcakes and someone's special day ;) have convinced me to make it that day! Hopefully the weather will be nice as it's an outdoor one.

    I'm off to Leeds tomorrow, my brother and his OH are coming now too so I don't have to get the coach. Much easier but not very mse as I'd already bought my ticket.

    Hugs and necessary vibes where needed, I haven't had chance to read back sorry and will probably be running off again now :o

    i dont know sj .. its become a comfort thing :rotfl: ...

    random question .. anyone fed up on sag or deflated boobs x

    Mine are fine..
    SM my boobs have always been saggy, especially for my age! I'm dreading what they'll be like when I finish BF. They're ok when A is overdue a feed but I fear spaniel's ears when I'm done BF :(

    They take about 2-3 years to find their new shape so don't be too unhappy about them.. mine were 2 cup sizes bigger after 12 years of breastfeeding and are still in the right place!
    :rotfl: dog ears ... philips telling me off saying to expect it but between 2 kids and over 6 stone of loss all together (maybe more i dont know) .. at 25 everything already heading south for the winter .. summer ... spring .. just forever x

    That is excellent weight loss :T:T.. but that will have had a greater effect on your body than the breastfeeding

    Can I just add.. it is a total myth that it is breastfeeding that upsets the boobies.. it is the pregnancy and the hormonal changes then that do it!!

    Saggy boobs are in fact hereditary.. so if your mum has droopies you should wear a supportive well fitting bra to minimise the effect on yourself!

    I have spent 1/3rd of my life breastfeeding and mine are fine.. I NEVER have gone braless.. I'd probably kill someone and before this pregnancy my boobs were at the biggest they had ever been.. and I certainly would be unable to tuck them in my knickers!

    My friend was once told if you can hold a pencil under your boob yours have 'dropped'... she said (in her best commoner voice) 'F**king H**L... I can hold a full can of lager under mine'... and promptly demonstrated!!

    That is correct.. my sisters OH is Slovakian and has used his year.. but it is too expensive to redo the test here on the crappy wages they pay migrant workers.

    The only things I've got close to hand are the monitor handset and half a packet of malted milks :D At least if I put the monitor there it might muffle the sound of grumpy pants!

    Happy Birthday Glam! :j I knew I'd meant to pop on earlier to say something, I hope you've had a lovely day and Jack and your OH have spoilt you rotten.

    I've got 3 watcher's on my tutu's already :j They've only been listed for about an hour. As soon as my niece has received her's I'll add a piccie to my fb, I don't want them to see it beforehand though. And I'm a cheapskate, I'd never pay the amount I'm asking for one but OH was adamant I put them at that price :rotfl:
