Thats because they still have mens minds so dont crave crisps, chocoalte, cakes and wine Grin I usually buy asda's own but it is pink, then I licked some off of my finger and realised it tasted awful so I bought him the real stuff!

Urgh, got some d+v bug overnight. Got up to throw up at 2, 4 and 6. Dh has had to go to work for the morning, hopefully back at lunchtime. Feel grotty and it was meant to be my one regular night out tonight too.

Get take away! Im having sausage, aunt bessys roasters and parsnips and gravey, how bad is that!!.......the baby wants it!! hahaha!
Finally caught up but have to say i did spead read and I NEED TO KNOW MEMPHIS what did ur dp do??? Im sorry if u dont want to go over it all again but, what did he do, i cant find where you have said it?
DH I like when my DH is off but i also like when im on my own and all goes like clock work, like today has!
mylife i too feel lathargic and have a sore throat and a thick head.....nothing new there then! I think u should listen to ur body, its good to have a nothing much day.
Re Calpol, i buy boots own brand, I think calpol tastes rancid.
D has a new tooth and looks like two more are on the way but not playing him up too badly, atm.
We had a lovely weekend in brum, D spent the day with his Nanny on saturday which was lovely for her, and him, and we had some lovely time together for a while and then i went round birmingham center on my own, which was really nice, just to have a bit of time alone.
Just watching BBC 3 about single moms, oh dear, its made me blart my face off!!

memphis83 · 30/08/2011 20:49

viksam next time your planning a visit to brum and a shopping spree alone let me know I will drive to meet you! Right then my dh got pissed pissed on Lyndons toys in his room, so all over carpet and rug too and then to my delight found he had curled a shit into my bra in the bath! His sister has text him today to say if he is too stupid to realise he has a lot of crawling to do and he is hanging by a thread! He has also just told me now he has washed my bra its ok for me to wear

viksam · 30/08/2011 21:03

WHAT!!! I mean i knew it was going to be bad but...............MAN, thats bad!!
was ur bra already in the bath?? thats just f***g horrid though on L's toys and stuff, man, how pissed was he?? I swear id seriously batter my DH.

memphis83 · 30/08/2011 21:13

Well everyone says he didnt seem that drunk which he didnt, if he drinks pints he cant handle it, hes never pissed since we've been together although I have stopped him a few times, the shit is a new thing the bra was in the bath its just unlucky it landed in a cup of the bra. luckily I took my playsuit from the bath thinking I better hang it up! he wandered around the house for ages, the dirty shit was with it enough to wipe and FLUSH the paper! I had a lucky escape he once pissed on an ex in a tent...and she stayed with him! I would kick his ass out there and then.

viksam · 30/08/2011 21:27

I did wonder about the wipeing but had to stop my brain before it went too far!
Oh dear me a shit in the bath is just too much, but then to prove he knew where the loo was is unreal. How far away are u from brum then memphis
cake what did u eat in the end?

viksam · 30/08/2011 21:34

just watching 'the transporter' class film if u like mindless shite and Jason Statham with his shirt off...............which i have been waiting for from the beginning, i have issues!! memp have u tried ambersol on L's teeth?

CakeandRoses · 30/08/2011 21:38

cake I have just read both articles and whilst suprised by the fact that there is so much shite in the medicins i have to say i wonder about the ecologist article. It seemed a bit scaremongering to me, i see the next article down is regarding formula v breast, its too late for me to read that now but no doubt i'll read it in the morning and beat myself up for being such a bad mother. Im all for informed choices, i just wish in these articles that they would make sensible suggestions for alternatives, rather that watch and wait, i defy any parent to 'watch and wait' for long. Thanks for posting them though, what do u give ur children?
Off to bed, night night all xx

CakeandRoses · 30/08/2011 23:45

i only read it the other day and haven't needed to give them anything since altho we normally might have given them some for teething. usually give them medinol.

i'm going to ask a pharmacist what's in the generic paracetamol/ibruprofen suspensions like mlic uses.

i agree tho, some better option would be helpful. i just despair at the fact putting shit in things designed for children is even legal Sad

tsc you ok?

i don;t blame you for not reading them mlic, kind of wish i hadn't either!

CakeandRoses · 30/08/2011 23:46

btw: i actually meant - i think the stuff you get might well be ok mlic - just making sure you didn't think i was casting aspersions on your parenting specifically Grin

vik I like the Transporter films, mostly for topless shots of Jason Statham!

memphis feel a little sick at your DHs pooing antics, Id be so angry at DH is he did that.

I dont know what Im having done to my hair today, Im trying to grow it so nothing too drastic, Im getting a £30/40 haircut for £25 though so not too bad.

memphis83 · 31/08/2011 08:49

viksam where he went in the bath is about a foot from the toilet and the bath is lined up with the toilet too, thats his logic of why he did it, he argued for the first hour that it was the dog even though he cant get upstairs and that was because it cant be him he never shits in the night Hmm he really is horrified and he has gone away til friday worried about coming home to an empty house and he has left his bank card as its payday to go and buy whatever I want!
tsc thats great about Frankie being chest clear at last!

L has only just woken up but its no surprise as he hasw woken up loads in the night.
