    No DD3 decided I had not had enough of hospitals and thought it would be a good idea to badly break her arm in the middle of her GCSEs. :(

    Was stuck in hospital with her 2 days, 2 hour operation to put it right now she will have trouble getting through airport security with 2 plates and screws in her arm. At least 8 weeks in a cast which will be put on next week once they are sure the wounds are healing ok.

    She did come out late last night but it was the first chance I got to lay down since thursday night. I could not sleep in those hospital chairs. :eek:

    Goodness! Glad she's home now though. I can offer all sorts of advice as to how to cope with a one handed life :o I remember how difficult it was when I was younger and in plaster up past my elbow :eek:

    Hey all,

    Been a gorgeous day here :D Productive morning tackling a few more of the 'to do list' jobs then had a fab afternoon at my besties for a BBQ :beer: Boys both suitably worn out from playing in the garden so hassle free bedtime and I've had an evening catching up with my feet up :)

    Loved the cake fernie, well done :T

    QoC, I went to a baby shower a couple of weeks ago for a close friend. The way I saw it was that the baby shower was for Mum, so I made a hamper which I called a 'mum to be/new mum survival kit'. I included pampering things to enjoy before baby arrived whilst she still has the time for a long bath (Sanctuary stuff from Boots sale and Bodyshop candle ;)) Then there were essentials for after the birth such as paracetamol, ibuprofen and maternity pads plus lavender oil (for in the bath for stitches), tissues (for the baby blues :eek:), eye cream (to help disguise the bags from lack of sleep), BS hand cream (as frequent hand washing had mine cracked within a fortnight) flapjacks (to help boost milk production), biscuits (for during night feeds) and chocolate (just because :D) I wrote instructions in her card and it went down really well. I meant to add a mini bottle of wine too but forgot :o
    In total I spent less than £15 including basket and cello/ribbon and so I can get the baby a little gift when she is born.

    Oh my goodness!! I hope she's ok. How on earth did she manage to do that?

    Trampolining!!! Overturned a back landing somersault and ended putting her arms out, right arm took full force of the rebound on the trampoline. Bone went through arm. :(

    Luckily it has not affected use of any of her fingers and they say operation was a success. Hope no problems later on. She is very lucky she didn't break both of them.

    I better add for anyone else reading this was not on a normal garden trampoline, a proper national competition type one.
