    Wow!!! Fuming! Nurse from drs has just given me a lecture on why I'm postponing my lo last jabs until the weather cools!! Erm.... Because its 30 degrees and why would I put him through feeling off or potentially a fever or being ill in this weather!! Am I crazy?

    Has it anything to do with her anyway? I'm not bothered about her opinion, I am his mother, me and oh have spoken about this and are happy with the decision!

    I feel like putting in a complaint, but I have a feeling that it was the drs wife who rang me and is also the practice manager therefore I would be complaining to her about her! Lol

    It's entirely up to you and a week won't make any difference. And it's in the health profession's interest to be understanding and supportive of parental decisions, not give you a lecture. It's not that you're choosing not to immunise your child, you're simply postponing it until a time that you think makes more sense. Nowt wrong with that. Silly cow (her not you, obv).

    Oh wow!!! A is 12 weeks today, and during afternoon playtime, I popped her on her tummy and she rolled over! :j I put her back on her tummy and she did it again whilst I filmed it to show OH later. I'm such a mean mommy - I just put her back on her tummy and she did it a third time! Guess I won't be able to enforce tummy time anymore :o

    I would've reminded her that they are in fact optional, and it's at your convenience or not at all. I've had similar from mine on several occasions. Once I said he was ill and they started interrogating me as to how ill. No, if I say not today, that's the end of it.

    Yeah we have a fan, our house has no shade round the back and that's where the sun comes so its horrendous! Far too hot. His rash seems better now thank you for asking!

    How are you and lo? X

    Morning ladies

    Hope we all slept well? Another hot night here, mrsh2b Aidens room is the same it was 29 last night, we have a fan but doesnt cool it really.

    What do you all have planned today? Not sure what we are doing yet, OH has gone to work for a couple of hours so will see how hot it is when he gets back.

    Morning all, I've been a bit awol, been so busy since getting back our holibags. We move in less than 6 weeks so I've started to try and pack some stuff up :eek: but don't seem to be getting anywhere fast, but I'm at that stage where I feel it's too early to pack some stuff but then if I don't start I'm gonna be left with it all at the end. Nightmare!

    Not as warm here, but then anyone who's lived in Ireland will get that ;) haha. Still nice and toasty but everyone has been sleeping ok, and it seems to have cooled down over night here slightly I'd say.

    My SIL wants A today so she is having him over night :eek: She asked though and it'l give us time to sort the stuff out in his room that needs packed and isn't used anymore. Thinking I may take him for a hair cut this morning, the back is nice and curly but the front is growing into his eyes :o
