    hello all

    am absolutely shattered! on here for a rest! Think I need to start taking those iron tablets again!

    We went swimming yesterday Steve! took me 45 minutes :eek: to get him in the water! 15 minutes of crying in the changing room, while I tried to force his clothes off, he kept holding onto them and pulling them back on. Then we were told there was a school in the baby pool :mad: until 4pm! I had a ms job that had to be done before 4.30pm, so went to the big pool and was trying to convince DS to just put a foot in the pool, or sit on the edge. The lifeguard came over and asked what he was wearing. I said a swimming nappy, he had had it since he was a baby, and only worn it once, 2 years ago! She said she had never seen one before, so was just checking. Then I explained he was frightened of the water and I was trying to convince him to just sit at the edge. She said oh but the baby pool is open - I said no, there is a school in there. Oh no the school finish in 5 minutes!

    She came back to tell me they had gone, so went round, and sat with my feet in the pool, DS wouldn't even touch the water overlapping the pool! so told him to cuddle me, and I just spoke to him and showed him the baby in the pool and the little girl, both with their daddies and how much fun they were having.

    DS kept saying we have to go home now. Eventually, coaxed one foot in the pool, then the other, then convinced him to stand on the edge of the pool. Then eventually got him in the pool! held onto him, took him the length of the pool both ways, he kept trying to climb out when we got to each end! after 15 minutes, he started shivering, so we got out, but he said to me, I love swimming, we can come again.

    Expensive 15 mins for me!

    He was free but I had to pay £3.85 for the privilege.

    Today went to buy swimming nappies, the disposable ones, and he said, we are not going swimming :mad:

    went wacky warehouse, he kept crying.. his blood sugars were low, and then my friend came with her son. He has turned into a bit of a bully. He kicked DS, was hitting another child, kept trying to push people down the slide, jumped on DS in the ball pit and made him cry again.

    Left, DS was crying at town, hid behind me when we were talking to the Firemen at the Fire house. cried because I refused to pay another £1 for a 2 minute bus toy ride! refused to get on the escalator, so had to pick him up, stood crying in boots for 10 mins while I ignored him. Eventually realised he wasn't getting his own way and stopped.

    Then cried in sainsburys as he burst his balloon.... cried at the zebra crossing as he wanted to press the button and someone else already had....

    am exhausted!
