CAFC, the Germans routinely put boys in tights. Lidl had boys' design tights last week, would you like me to see if they have any left? And how tall is L? They're done here by height, so 62/68, 68/74 etc.

My midwife just completely ignored my request for emotional help, literally she didn't answer my email. Any HV would be better than that, and even if you don't take it any further surely it would be good to have on record that you weren't feeling so great. But it does sound like you've been under a lot of stress. :grouphug:

So despite my early start, and the dog phishing up the sofa, i've got a nice cup of coffee in my xmas mug (Im not ashamed to admit it!) and im feeling ok....

but if i were to seriously think about it with a level head, i know im not depressed.... just phished off and upset..... but given my personality, i end up blowing it out of proportion...

phew giant post, all woe is me, i do apologise to all....

Glad to hear you're feeling okay today and no need to apologise - we all have good days and bad days and sometimes it helps to talk (or write) about it.

CAFC, tights sound sensible, they'll keep his tummy and back warm and he won't be able to pull his socks off either.

I know what you mean about not talking to people, and HVs do seem rather carp. It's not good to spend too much time in your own head - take that from someone bigger and uglier than you, who's spent waaay too much time with herself- but it is hard living away from your family and friends.

I shan't suggest getting out there and 'meeting people', cos I want to punch people when they suggest that, as it's not that easy is it? Do you have anything that is just 'you' that you could maybe do when Landen snoozes?

My baby has never been able to pull his socks off *shrug* he still can't!!

He can take his own shirt off though

You can usually get dungaree sets at the supermarkets (it is where I do all my baby shopping )

I never put socks on Alice until she was seventeen months.

Morning all!

Just wanted to say thank you Gill for the fairy post!

Also, I just made my very first ever batch of jam (blackberry & apple). Looks delicious, hope it tastes so!

Finn is getting very frustrated with himself trying so hard to crawl! Poor thing, I'm sure he'll get it soon!

SugarSpun

Caz, if you're about, when did your fairies fly? They've not made it here yet

Aless, it would be inappropriate not to test your jam

CAFC, I doubt L will mind girly tights, the blue ones were striped with a dog on the butt though :rotfl:

I've just finished the draft of my last-but-one work project. I'm going to hold onto it till the end of the day and then email it over though so it looks like I'm busy all day, and if I can do the last little chunk of book-work by Friday I'm all set for a very relaxed last month

DH suggests that to me all the time. I tried baby group and i hated it so now we dont go.
I keep being ignored as they have there own 'circle'.

Meh, i dont like people anyway

Going to ILs today, MIL had an op last Thursday, something to do with her womb. They have invited us for dinner so we are going to raid Lilys money box and buy her some flowers from Lily

Edit: I forgot to add, CAFC & Kindof, my little brother used to wear dark blue tights all the time. No one knew any different as they were underneath jogging bottoms
