Just want to say thank you to everyone.

Hi everyone. Ste and I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone for all the kind words and support given to us both in my earlier thread. We think we've discovered why K has been so bad as it appears she's got a canine coming through and she's been in a lot of pain today. Ste says he's finally beginning to see the light and want to thank all of you for helping us both out with all the support and advice. It's been a tough day for both of us not just with K and we've done a lot of talking and hopefully things will be easier for us now we both know where we stand. Obviously we've got to take one day at a time with regards to the PND and k's teething. On top of the teething it also looks like she's getting some ecsema which can't be very comfortable for her either.

Money wise I'm going to relook at the budget tomorrow if I get the chance and K's ok as I need to start realising that our wellbeing comes before being debt free and I think selfishly that I was masking the PND by just submerging myself in a little cycle of money-debt-money-debt all the time.

Tomorrow's a new day and hopefully it'll be a better one all round. To say thanks I thought I'd leave you all with a picture of K enjoying her new bumbo.

    One quick tip about her excema- are you using bio washing powder? ( lots of value ones are bio) dump it and buy a non bio instead. I have dry excema myself and it became much more irritable when I bought value powder, and we dont buyt it now :)

    Health and well being first :D

    Pleased to see your chin is back up hun xx

    Try teething powders from boots they are fantastic, if you run out, put a little calpol on your finger and onto the sore part of the gum. If you put a little calpol on your tongue you will see what i mean hth xx

    Sorry I didn't post any adivce on your other post. Glad to hear that you seem to have sorted things a little. Lidl do brilliant non-bio tablets for about £2.76 and you only use one a time - so they last for ages. Not sure if there's a lidl near you. Is Daz non-bio?
