I'm a non medically trained self appointed internet nurse. I have a very old useless degree in humanities from a poly therefore am completely unfettered by knowledge or training. Bring me your problems and I'll solve them.

Excellent. Can you tell me how to change DS's nappy without him making a break for freedom half way through? His brother was never this much of a Houdini.

I'm thinking duck tape might be the answer...

I have lots of abdominal pain, should I see a doctor or is too late?

BeeFarseer · 14/02/2019 10:23

I have a piece of a beef Hula Hoop stuck in my teeth. I can't decide whether to let it dissolve and enjoy the prolonged beefy flavour, or stick a finger in there to try and wriggle it free, which risks damaging my manicure .

Flavia yes, hold him down with your feet as you do it, it worked for Helen Keller.

I have a cold. I feel gross. Please cure me.

pineapplebryanbrown · 14/02/2019 10:24

faster you're clearly in labour, unless you're a man in which case you need a big shit.

Interesting solution, can't be any worse than the current one Grin

pineapplebryanbrown · 14/02/2019 10:26

Bee don't let it dissolve, it will make you want more and more and more crisps. This is Thursday not Saturday for the love of God - use dental floss.

Interesting!!! Shall I call a midwife or my DM?

How to stop Brexit? please and thank you Flowers

Toasty lie on the sofa and rewatch all 5 series of Breaking Bad under a mound of blankets. If any work needs done or children need fed just tell them you can't be arsed.

Awesome!
Please tell me how to get pregnant and have a baby without it dying, despite taking ALL the supplements, not drinking alcohol or caffeine, and cutting out dairy, gluten and sugar and basically all the fun and money, while everyone else around me gets pregnant just by looking at their partners and they get to keep their babies too.
I'm all ears! Grin

Should we move abroad or not?

pineapplebryanbrown · 14/02/2019 10:29

Faster ask your DM to immediately train as a midwife then both problems solved.

Apple yes, but only for 1 year, rent out your house and try it out then you can come back if you don't like it.

BeeFarseer · 14/02/2019 10:32

You're right, I want more crisps.

I have fished it out with a floss harp.

Thank you for your life-changing advice - my manicure is still good. I have attached a blurry photo as proof.

My ddog’s a bit pesky. Any views on what could be wrong?

pineapplebryanbrown · 14/02/2019 10:33

Frazzle I'm sorry for your problems but I can only offer rubbish solutions. In the interim eat chocolate.

Bowchicawowow · 14/02/2019 10:33

Peaky not pesky!

pineapplebryanbrown · 14/02/2019 10:34

I order clothes online after seeing them on 6-foot size 8 models, and then find they inexplicably look different on me. How do I resolve this issue?
