    Kitten, so sorry for your losses. You are being very kind about the spelling mistake. Hope it gets sorted soon.

    Nice bunting, tink!

    Ugh, ironing. Distinctly OH's territory. Especially as the only working iron is broken (which makes more sense if you can see it! It is literally coming apart)

    I feel like carp tonight :( IBS seems to be protesting, loudly - both to me having AF and to me having painkillers e4616c584ada1bd002c06b9bbffd022004b87ed2.jpg

    I really feel for you BZ. Ohh while I remember the tablets are Co-Dydramol, think these are prescription but there is a similar one with a slightly lower dosage which is over the counter and I was told that these are safe during pregnancy (and I was taking alot of them)

    Thanks :o (I could say the same in return though ;))

    Wasn't cocodamol was it?
    They are safe, in terms of being a measured risk, but it depends on the doc as to whether they just say nothing but paracetamol is SAFE, iykwim. My doc seems to be a nothing but paracetamol kind of guy... though he did agree with me that if it was too much for me then codeine was better than anti-inflammatories for a bub ;)

    no anti-inflammatories, it wasn't cocodamol sounded similar to co-drydramol, if I find the packet I will let you know the other one. I was prescribed it by the maternity unit for my back and was assured that there was absolutely no risk.
