SparklingCFTO · 23/03/2007 10:33

Ruby The ironing board is behind the living room door atm as I hoovered in there yesterday and the door is doing that to me, too!

tort Any suggestions? I didn't want to just have "Sparkling" as there is a "Sparkler", isn't there?

tortoise · 23/03/2007 10:52

Can't think of any suggestions I'm afraid. But looked better full length!

Little more done. Am feeling a bit wobbly at the moment. So will have a 5 min break!

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 23/03/2007 10:56

Help is it possible for a now 10 month old baby to have chicken poxs? Whilst washing & dressing Ellie this morning I found 4 smallish red blistery type spots on her body. A massive one on her head, and a nother smalish one on her head. Phoned dr's have to be there for 12.

9nut Ellie has only just started sleeping, she was the worst sleeper. Its all thanks to the baby Whisperer, or probably because she has chickenpox

Everybody else thanks for the comments re: ellie, pedicure cancelled as she can't go into the creche.

I'll keep you all updated.EHM

staceym11 · 23/03/2007 10:59

hi everyone, bad day again today! think we'r having a bad week! i really need to phone the docs and get myself sorted!

staceym11 · 23/03/2007 11:03

EHM hope ellie is ok!

tortoise · 23/03/2007 11:06

Oh dear EHM. It probably is pox. They can get it at any age. Best to get it iver and done with while they are young!
All 4 of mine have had it now!

Hope she is ok.

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 23/03/2007 11:06

Thanks stacey you too hope you get things sorted with the dr{{{hugs}}} She is such a good mood today, I more upset than she is, panicking inwardly

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 23/03/2007 11:08

Thanks tort thats what my mum has said too. But as I've said to stacey she is in such a great mood this morning we having great fun. I just called Tesco to advise them I have to leave shortly as my order should be delivered between 10-12, cancelled creche & pedicure. So I'll get some food & milk ready for ellie to take with us & set of.

shouldbe · 23/03/2007 11:29

How about Sparklingsink
EHM Hope Ellie is OK - ds had chicken pox when he was anout 18mths - it can be quite nasty (esp in the nappy area I found )but it is quite a relief to get it over with! Mine liked lots of nice soothing baths to ease the itching. Hope she's OK xx
stacey {{hugs}}

Better get on - ds is trying to play on the Cbeebies website!

tortoise · 23/03/2007 11:34

hi all, stacey my 2 have both had chicken pox dd was 11 months and apart from looking horrendous she was fine .. the main problem is keeping them away from everyone else !!,couple of teaspoons of bicarb of soda in the bath really helps with the itching as well

tort take it easy !

Well my day just can't really get worse mil went out this morning to the undertakers and managed to get herself involved in a 3 car shunt, shes fine (she says [hmmm]) but the cars a write off and shes stuck waiting for a garage to pick up the car, and is now panicking she won't be back in time for the vicar who's due at 3.30pm

i just want this week to be OVER

yaddayah · 23/03/2007 13:17

Oh, dear, I thought I'd done more than that.

shiningFTO if you leave your name like that no-one outside this thread will know what the fto means....I quite like shining sink, if you don't mind being outed as a FLYer wherever you go

tort I hope you manage to eat later. Starving isn't really a long term solution! Are you seeing the dr on Monday?
