a multipack christmas card from DS for his first christmas?

It could have least been a mummy card!

And it was 3 days late.

Do you think i am being ungrateful or not?

I just wanted one i could keep to remember DS' first christmas with.

Have been drinking so am embarassed to call 999 but getting really really short of breathe?!?!

TWINSETofbigfatcocks · 29/12/2008 02:33

please call them, if you have been drinking you dont want to pass out.

NCBirdy · 29/12/2008 02:33

If you can't breath call them, tell them you have been drinking as it could be a reaction but do not put it off out of shame - they will have spent the last two weeks with people who have been drinking!

SheSellsSeashellsByTheSeashore · 29/12/2008 02:40

Makingafamily I am asthmatic too. keep taking your inhalers and call an ambulance. In the meantime get a dining room chair and sit on it with your legs open pull your tummy in when you breathe out and out when you breath in with our back straight

benandalex · 29/12/2008 02:41

benandalex · 29/12/2008 02:44

your preventer wont help the subutomal would have worked by now this happnened to me 2 weeks ago and the ambuance nebulised me at home then was given a steriod injection that helped as nebuliseres didnt the only reason i had to go into hospital was because they thought i had a chest infection

makingafamily · 29/12/2008 02:44

I've called for nebule?

benandalex · 29/12/2008 02:45

are they sending someone out asap? try and stay as calm as u can as panicking makes it worse open a window and get some fresh air and sit straight
