KitKat - what type of steriliser do you need? I have a TT CTN microwave one here not being used, if it's any use to you?

Gisi I really like the top, very cute. So far I've got Isla an ELC cash register, some books and an elmo (she's elmo obsessed atm!) There's a few bit's I've marked in the ikea catalogue too so hoping to get there next week for those. I've made her a completely OTT pretty girly dress too, it look's more like a bridesmaid dress ha ha, I just hope she grow's into it by her birthday.

Aless - lot's of good luck vibes.

Wee James may be coming home in the next couple of weeks Once his oxygen levels are acceptable and he's keeping his bottles down he's allowed home :j

definitely get smears. the HPV that causes cervical cancer can be in yor body without you ever knowing. infact most people are infected and dont realise. some strains are strongr thanothers and all can go on to cause cancer.

I won't because a) that would imply that either I or OH has had more than one sexual partner and b) I know we haven't and therefore there's nowhere I could have got the HPV which can cause cervical cancer from which makes it a needless test. Obviously the assumption behing the universal screening is that everyone does have multiple sexual partners but there seems to be no acknowledgement of the fact that the risk is extremely low if you don't.

kitkat - to tide you over why not cold water steralise? its relatively quick - 20-30 mins max i think and you can buy a lot of tablets (60 plus) for under £1 in boots! All you then need is some cold water and an ice-cream or tupperware style box ( a lid is useful).

HTH and your new one comes sooner rather than later.

Wooo I hope Wee James makes it home soon!:T

Thanks for the meetball advice (lol) WE'll have some 2mo, I need to now make some pastry and get my beef and ale pie in'th oven - eep I've only made a pastry top myself once before and it wasn't very good wonder if I can put it in the oven with the cheesecake...

Kitkat do you have a big tupperware box or food/freezer bag? I'd go for cold water sterilisation until you're sorted

ETA - I was sent an app for a smear at 18, cancelled it and refused another then a few months later the age was changed to 25, I had my first at the same time I had my IUS put in this year, it feels just as it is, a little plastic brush being rubbed on your cervix, worst bit is the speculum - those things are grim!

yes the risk is low but i still think that the test is one worth having. There have been cases of women who have never had sex or like you, just 1 partner who have still developed cervical cancer.

but each to their own and i know you are anti-tests that you dont need to have

I am very sorry RMAC but i cannot come on friday

Charlie has just been back to the doctors and it isnt just a virus, he has hand foot and mouth! as it is very contageous i would rather be careful and stay at home rather than A come down with it. im so disappointed as i have a list of what to get and even had decided what to wear lol!
Will definatly make a date soon though

r.mac_2

oh caz - thats so funny 9strange not haha!) as thats what I thought it sounded like! Poor Charlie. I totally understand about Friday It si sooooo contagious I agree with your decision Don't worry though. My sister had it as a child and has no lasting problems

Glad you got a diagnosis - and we can do Ikea when you are all better in teh caz household..

big, non-contagious hugs to Charlie.

cazscoob

thank you i have cancelled his bus tomorrow and need to phone the CM as i dont think it will be fair to send erin just incase its passed on. so much for my child free thursday lol!
