    DS2 was squishable.. but DS3 if you moved him he was sick lol.... he just wasn't healthy! lol Do you see why I have 8 now? lol I had really reall ybad PND with DS3 and don't actually remember much about him being tiny.. which I am a bit sad about.

    I had a blubber last night because we can't have any more.. I know that is really selfish and silly.. but most days I can handle it.. apart from DS2's birthday and DD4's birthday.. weird I know

    anyway.. off to my nail appointment.. see you all later!

    xx

    I blub at times too. even though mostly I wouldn't want more. But when you are told 'no', it gets to you. hate that the choice has been taken away.

    I was told I had PND with DS2 by hubbies family. Turned out I had PTS. But we can't change what happened can we so there is no point feeling bad about it.

    Oh and I have a huge rant about DLA people coming on! OT was out with a form from them asking about learning difficulties, DS2 doesn't have any and there was no mention of it on the form so why ask? Good news however, is that the OT is referring us for a new banister on the stairs for DS2. Who knows how long that will take though.

    I will have to sort out the clothes in my room, I have been saying it for over a week now and I have ran out of pants!:eek:

    I had that after 3 of mine too.. I wrote my birth story after DD5 at 4am after weeks of no sleep and I still can't bear to even think about it 3 years later.. isn't life grand!! And still we'd have more!

    I've got most of the ebay stuff pic'd (49 items!!! inc the shoes!).. just one more bag to do.. but I have to go collect the children.. todays exercise was the 15 times I've ran up and down stairs this afternoon.. every time I picked something up the doorbell rang.. I was up and down like a brides nightie!! I don't think I am fitter.. just knackered!!

    Best go wake Tiddles so we can go collecting!

    Feel better today thanks Tracy - thats what happened to us - thought I was taking LO for his MMR and it turned out to be the one as you said so now he hasn't yet had MMR due to keep being poorly! DDs didn't have half as many jabs as he has had!

    Did get my brew, cake and neighbours so now I had better wake him up for a snack before we collect DD's from school and return their library books

    Ok - meeting with boss happened over the phone as his boss couldn't get back from his previous meeting in time. DrDragon was hauled over the coals for the fact that the IT system was down all yesterday and will be down all today. DrDragon finally got a word in edgeways and said he had discovered why the system was down. It appears that a manager had brought his laptop in to download "prawn" (shall we say!) and this had introduced a Trojan that knocked the whole thing out!

    His boss went very quiet then as the manager has broken most of the IT rules in one fell swoop (which could be classed as gross misconduct and instant dismissal!). DrDragon is waiting to hear what will happen to both himself and the manager now.
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D
