    esio - what an utter screwup, poor you, hope you get some kind of cancellation slot or something soon.

    talking of screwups had an admin afternoon and amongst other carp including spending an hour opening this weeks forwarded post from Dad's business, called up halifax about our annual mortgage statement and seems they've been crediting all our payments onto the lower interest rate of the two loans we've got running in paralell, despite payment letters showing total payments by loan. :mad:

    Buggy help needed! Went to mothercare this morning - tried a phil & ted's out and while it's fab in theory, didn't really like it at all, it's so much wider than my maclaren, I mean, I know it's going to be bigger but it seems enormous! I am not sold on the idea of a side by side either as little man will be 18 months-ish when #2 arrives so will need a single again at some point. What have other mum's of two littlies done / recommend buggy wise????

  • no, Tia, Edinburgh for us. Hadn't considered getting the GP involved actually - may make an appointment next week if I don't get anywhere on Monday (not that I'm 100% sure where to phone other than the complaints line but I'll figure that one out I'm sure)

    Buggys - I don't have 2, but I've read about clips that you can put two singles together with - might be an option for you as you could then unclip them when you only need a single. Something along the lines of this maybe?

    Well hospital just called.

    Coagulation results are good. Liver enzymes.... lab lost the results. But it should be okay since the coag would be same or worse if enzymes were up. Stay on Vit K till Tuesday, back up at 1.30pm on Tuesday. Stay on ranitadine till Jan appointment. Deffinately had a virus that caused the liver to go funky. Paracetamol dose I was giving her is a safe dosage (although it is too much for her bodyweight) and it has just been very bad luck. So I feel a bit better.

    And my tesco clothing order arrived (alllll freeeeeeee), I got the boys a shirt each, a fluffy bath robe each, an extra shirt for DS2, a pretty party dress and shrug for Miss Amber http://www.clothingattesco.com/girls/f+f-party-dress/invt/kc022121/&bklist=icat,4,shop,catggirls,girls-party-ages-1-7 (course now its cheaper....) and 3 tops for me. All free! Woohoo!

    You can also speak to your GP about it Tara, ask for a referal. I saw a child psycologist when I was younger about my dreams, which is how I learned lucid dreaming (becoming aware that you are asleep and dreaming while dreaming).

    Got more chance sprouting a willie!!! :(

    Did you not read my post about our doctors yesterday.:mad:

    Edit, just seen your good news, XXXXXXX.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    the P&T is a great buggy and i loved mine but i found the Jane Powertwin to be amazing!! there are so many so its a little bit of trial and error but i would advise buying 2nd hand as they are only used a short while asnd if you dont like it you havent lost out on a lot of money!
    What's for you won't go past you
