Just needed to be heard for a little while

Oh dear! I've just watched the John Lewis ad, and tears are rolling down my face in floods.



Tea lover, I think they may be rolling down yours ,too. ((((((((Tea lover)))))))

Also, don't be afraid of posting! The thread etiquette was devised way back, and is re posted as a reminder every 10 or so pages. It is never aimed at anyone! It was first posted in amended form on p154. If you scroll back before then and read the posts, you will understand what led us to think there was a need for it.

One more thing.......much as you love your house, do you love it enough to spend another 10years feeling like this? I think a talk with your dad and a letter to OH are super ideas. Also, is there any reason why OH doesn't like being at your parents' house?

I think I'll watch that when I'm not at work.

My entire office watched it this morning

It, um, got very dusty all of a sudden, so many eyes were being wiped...

Thanks! Just got a bit worried that I'd massively put my foot in it .

I don't think he actively dislikes it so much as he's bored and doesn't hide it particularly well. To be fair to him he's not keen on Christmas at all, think he'd rather go to work!

I am so scared. I just got a call from the doctor's asking for us to go in on Monday about Littlewing.

Why am I scared? It is probably just iron levels.

I think it's natural to be scared, but I'm sure it was serious they'd get you in straight away. x

I agree if it was serious they would have had you in sooner- but if you are worried no harm in seeing if you can get an earlier appointment- perhaps explain it will make you understandably anxious over the weekend.

I am anxious as little miss who turned 2 a few weeks ago- still wont really speak -the odd word and that is it- its not that she cant she can say lots of words just doesnt... health visitor has been out once and thinks she is advanced in some areas and is not worried by speech... this was a couple months ago she is doing a follow up Tuesday- and I am anxious. Little miss is incredibly sociable, loves playing with other little ones as well as adults and great at getting her point and feelings across and great at problem solving just not interested in speech.. keep feeling its my fault somehow.

They couldn't get me in sooner.

I think I logically know that it isn't serious . I think it's because DD is so young.

She isn't even 'ill' - she's darting around merrily.

It didn't help that I checked Dr Google before the blood tests.

She did come home from school with 2 birthday party invitations today. As I am in a sentimental mood, I felt a little sad for childhood WaS because of these kind of things that she missed out on. (Not that we went to parties in local play centres anyway - the few we went to were pass the parcel+jelly and ice cream at people's houses).
