Have to go down to in-laws and sort out car seat etc BIL not very good with those things!

Alice - it may just need oil, my previous car used to make a creaky noise and it just needed a little lubrication!

MM - Get the Dr to patch you up, hope you feel better soon.

JKS well done on Wii Fit goal!

Hi all, feeling lots better today. No migrane. Back to busy day at work. Another long day. Will be in double shock after DC2 as will not know what to do with myself at home in October when on Maternity leave! Will be able to Mumsnet during the day though .

Text my Dad with days DH is away to see if he might come visit (to help out with DS) - should explain that I have only seen my Dad once this year as he is in new relationship with a lady friend who is keeping him on a tight leash, shame for DS and DH who are missing out on their relationship. DS has two other granddads though who he loves and sees lots.

JKS - congratulations!!

I think this is my last post before holiday. We are taking a laptop so that we can upload photos etc, but I have agreed not to Mumsnet if DH stays away from car websites

Alice did you mention before you drive an Audi, if so and the creaking is at front, sorry but it needs more than oil, but I drove mine for ages creaking until we had dd1 and dh had to drive it over all the bumps in the hospital loads to visit me and then he finally fixed it.
Can't remember what the part was strutts or something but it was renound in the older ones! I can ask dh for you later if you later and if you don't drive an Audi, it just needs some oil
