MSE Pregnancy Club 22

delain

DD1 has just been doing the sex ed thing at school (she was only 8:eek:) they showed her a birth video, it was really basic info and she seems to think the baby comes out of your legs, maybe the lady giving birth was a bit thunder thighed like me so cellulite was all you could see lol.

No worries PP, that's a shame the OT are so useless. I would say you could come and use my shower but thats a very long way to come :rotfl: you'd probably be better off trying a gym near home!

lol, sex ed in our school consisted of giving us a banana and a condom, showing us how to roll it on, and a stern instruction not to do this for a few years yet! We were none the wiser at all!

Afternoon all

Just in case people are interested, Boots will be having a 3 for 2 Baby event, starting next Wednesday, 24th August... Everything will be in it apart from Mini Mode clothes

Will this include maternity pads/breast pads and things like that? I was thinking about buying a few bits and pieces soon.

I do need to buy some bottles and nappies too

the chickenpox ting is only an issue if you are not immune.. but i realise you wont have been asked.. it has aso only been the last few years they decided it was a problem so she might not know maany people dont.

Just say you are contactin higher up and/or union about it and you are not prepared to work against the RA.. they cant sack you for it!!

I would need a couple of steps up to the bath to be able to sit on it.. thank you though... I do appreciate your help.. I looked into loads of tuff like thiswhen having pest and found nothing that would fit on the darn bath.. I need some steps for the girls too which OT were supposed to be providing but we havent managed an appointment despite a 2 year wait.. grrr..... I am unable to bath or shower them at the moment either as they need help getting in and out of the bath and OH simply wont help.. they arent his girls and he feels it is in appropriate to be seeing them naked.. you know what KHs are like he would probably be reporting us to SS if he helped.. it is so terrible things as simple as OH being needed to help would set KH off in such a manner but I am not risking it.

Hi Can i just ask what KH stands for please. I presume its for ex husband

Yep, as far as I can tell it's on absolutely everything, except mini mode. I'm off work tomorrow but will double check on Thursday. Bottles and nappies are definitely in it.
