are you a 'picky' mum.......flame and psycho need to know...............

[psychomum5]

.........flameboy is sat on flame lap, and she is completely subconcsiously (or least, she was until she realised what she was doing) going thru flameboys hair and picking at him. (he is nit-free BTW, I think it stems from habit now)

I do the same whenever mine come sit on me (and radiate towards teenage spots too)

like the 'gorilla mums' you see on the animal documentary;s...((hasten to add that I am not suggesting we are gorillas BTW)).

I tend to nuzzle ds's head when he is on my lap. He smells really good.

No I'm not picky but I get irritated by the fact that your names are always in your thread titles.

Boring.

my mum comes in and starts going through my hair she doesnt realise shes doing it untill you mention it to her, she sits and goes through dd's hair too

boring schmoring

tis the attention thing

I get a lot of satisfaction from blowing my children's noses . DD1 is going to stop coming to sit next to me as she has a cold ATM, and I'm reaching for the tissue before she's even got her bum on the seat.

DH is a 'picky' dad - DDs 2 and 3 have cradle cap, and he will pull the flaky bits out while they're sitting on his knee. Mind you, he will also pull the bobbly bits off their jumpers

and actually.......we don;t always.

just occasionally

hmm, more of a stroker than a picker. I do the nuzzling thing too though.

Nope! Because we still have nit nurses here in Spain!

And yes I do -or rather did. DS & DD are 21 & 19 now & DD is showing a worrying tendency to pick at me...

It's when you start doing it to dh you have to worry.

Psycho and flame are just attention seeking hussies. True. Nothing else in their lives at all.

dd has a glaring whitehead i've been consciosly avoiding for a week now for fear of marking her baby skin. nuzzling's all good tho

flame is shouting at me to point out that she didn;t start either of the threads.

and I only did one of them.....

nuzzling I do. stems from the nuzzling of their newborn heads, and that newborn smell, that never lasts long enough.

I'm a rifler - I can't have DD nearby without having to rifle through her hair looking for creepy crawlies. Even caught myself at school gates doing it

DS won't let me touch him now!

altho the thought if us being hussies, while sat surrounded by our many children, is quite funny

pmsl at you lot

Where is flame shouting from? Is she in a box? Are you keeping her prisoner? Do we need to come and bust her out? This names in titles thing is starting to make sense. You're issuing joint statements. She's been kidnapped. Let her out right now. I want to talk angels and hunters with her.

She's got me in some knocked up lady's devil's trap I have managed to drag in the laptop via the mouse, but she'll be back any minute...

i used to when nits wee a problem. but we haven't had them for years and i haven't done it.

i do like squeezing blackheads - ut no-one will let me.

I snared my DH by picking bobbles off his jumper - rock and roll!

He still likes nothing more than having me rifle through his hair looking for bits to pick!

I can't resist picking at DD2's cradle cap.

I don't eat it though, so i'm not weird .

I'm a nuzzler too and I do love to pick a bit of cradle cap

I am.

Flame, I'll be right there.I always suspected something wasn't right with Psycho.

Salt, check.

Impala, check.

Classic rock soundtrack, check.

I'll bring pie.

I pick through hair, if you check regularly you can get the nits whilst they're still on one head

oops posted too soon, DD is always getting glue in her hair so if i'm not bug hunting, i'm getting the glue out.

Anyone know a quick way of getting copious amounts of PVA glue out of hair? It's at the scalp rather than the ends this time

there are children demons that will need ganking too please
