Sunday Times columnist India Knight will be joining us here on Monday 2nd July from 9-10pm for a live chat. India has just published her first children's book 'The Baby' which is about a big brother's relationship with his new baby sister - an absolute must for second-time parents. If you can't make the chat you can post your questions in advance here.
Hope to see you here on Monday.

Ah we've emailed before India re Gina Ford , but just to say one of your News Review pieces is in DS1's birth box. 2 days after he was born, I was in hospital post section and you wrote a very funny column about giving birth, pain relief vs candles etc. It was apt.

Ooh good question about Gordon vs David for children with SN (have one myself- severely autistic). So will borrow and ask that as well.

Piffle · 02/07/2007 21:18

Hi India -

Just wanted to say it was refreshing to read your SN blog
I have a daughter with Noonan Syndrome and feel like an alien amongst parents most days with my little obsessions about her health and progress (thankfully great and good)
Dipping into your blog was a treat and I loved your blog stars
That's it no great questions...

Unless you have any fab tips on regaining a long lost and heartily mourned libido after 3 kids...

Mog: okay. A friend of mine once worked the words 'moist gusset' into a feature for the mail on sunday. Brilliantly, he invented a Swiss playboy called Moi St Gusset.

Carmenere · 02/07/2007 21:18
