It'll be ok. Go and have a chat with the GP. I really do hope you get some sleep.

thumbwitch · 08/07/2008 01:14

bless you, hope you get some sleep and that he is in a better state tomorrow

night cvq I too hope you get some sleep.

(book offer is always there-or could try local library)

Hope you feel better

take him to the doctors.

Do you have a thermometer in your bedroom? Could he be getting too hot? I have a Growbag Egg, changes colour when the room's too hot/cold and looks funky too. Hope you and ds are feeling better today.

sounds like teething...take him to docs to double check

cv, where abouts in the country are you honey?

littlewoman · 10/07/2008 10:55

Does anybody else in the world use calpol and phernergan? My sister used it on all her children. I've never tried, but she swears by it. Okay, bad parenting advice there, but sometimes a body is desperate.

gagarin · 10/07/2008 11:08

i used phenergan but my dd reacted badly to it and was hyperstimulated (running round wild eyed and hysterical at 2am!) so never did THAT again

littlewoman · 10/07/2008 11:13

Oh. Well, that's not supposed to happen. That wasn't my plan, CVQ, honestly
