Red - I always found that Benjamin was fine on the day of his jabs, and perhaps for a couple of days later but then he was crabby and that his crabbiness could last up to 10 days


Right - can someone tell me I am mad - I am considering inviting MIL to come away with us because she has been a bit down lately but I know I will want to get away from her if she does come...I need a slap!!

Now you mention it, Amelie always used to be like that so hopefully Freddie won't take after her too much!

Rather than invite MIL to go away with you, could you suggest dinner? Then it's not too long a time to spend together...

You could always take my MIL away

TBH, we spent 1 night in London with our In Laws and that was more than enough for both of us... I physically shudder when they mention us all going to Butlins together... But then I imagine your MIL would be a bit more considerate of Benjamin than my In Laws are for my children...

Sparkle... Dry SHampoo? What's wrong with scraping back into a ponytail?

I have a friend who only washes her fringe in situations like that Sparkle :T I HAVE to wash my hair every morning or it gets incredibly greasy. I can't remember the last time I didn't wash it. I even did it as soon as I could walk after having Benjamin!!


Will have to ponder the MIL thing. She is just really down atm and it makes me really sad

What can I say?? Im vain!! Although I cant be that vain cos I cant be a$$ed going and washing my hair (I will need to shower when I get home as Im off out tonight I think....just incase you all though I was being smelly!)

I got sent for a shower about an hour after Caitlyn was born so I washed my hair while I was in there... The midwives were really surprised?!

Hi, we're back - thanks MDW, MOTM, MFD for your wishes. F really screamed this time, but he seems ok now (calpol in arm's reach, just in case ). Well, at least that's over for another month...

I'm glad he's doing ok and hope he isn't too crabby for you

I would invite her, and if she says yes I would make sure and book a series of spa treatments for yourself at sensible times so just as she's getting annoying you can take yourself off and come back refreshed.

We once went away with my in-laws when A was just a bit less than a year - it wasn't pretty. They spent most of the time in the pub, and the nights were seriously stressful. Everytime A cried, everyone came out of their rooms, turned lights on, slammed doors, went to the loo and flushed the toilet, so any chance of settling her back to sleep went completely out of the window....
I wouldn't completely rule out going away with them again - but it would have to be completely seperate accommodation.
