    Hello :) One of my friends might be coming alone with me to the meet, I hope that's ok? She's got a little boy but don't think she uses the internet that much so isn't on here.

    We've had an expensive morning-Elliot has had a growth spurt and has gone up a whole shoe size (he's gradually been going up half sizes before). So new shoes were needed, along with bigger socks and wellies for splashing in muddy puddles! :)

    He's had a busy weekend, so is now in bed having a long nap! He had a major strop/tantrum over lunch as he was so tired.

    Aw no :( I honestly don;t know how you do it on so little sleep all the time. I'd have Tia crossing the street to avoid me, she'd think I was a zombie!

    As you will discover in Birmingham - I do look like a zombie :D

    I think it was slow but not so slow as to lose your interest. As I said I was reading whilst being induced so I am perhaps not the best judge. It is ultimately a stunning book though and well worth a bit of ploughing at the beginning imho. I could send you my copy if you like? But I would need it back because I will read it again one day.

    I might make brum but not 100% sure yet...

    Thank you for the kind offer but it takes me ages to read a book these days - D always tries to grab books off me and eat them :eek:

    I hope you can come to Brum :T


    hammy and krystal can you put what train station your leaving from going to try and match everyone best i can ....

    loving this whole organising stuff even looking in to this properly ... anyhooooo better get back to work :o x

    I will be leaving from Hereford although I could leave from Gloucester or Ledbury..... I haven't booked the ticket yet but will do it later.
    The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents ;):o:D

    on immunisations, D will get his but I do understand those who don't go for them. I did have a bit of a "what's the point?" moment when I thought about it as I needed a rubella booster once I gave birth after finding out I have no immunity to it at my booking appointment when I was pregnant. I've had all my jabs and boosters, as well as rubella itself, and I'm still not immune - not holding out much hope for the most recent jab having any effect!

    Same here! I was meant to have it again at my 6wk check up but they didn't offer so i didn't mention it.

    I managed not to contract Rubella throughout my pregnancy with Lily so im sure i will manage to avoid with the next pregnancy.

    Plus it will only wear off like my last few have, so im also in the "whats the point" camp :D

    Luckily for me, i never needed the BCG at school as im naturally immune to TB, hopefully Lily is to :D
