Hope DD gets some relief soon faffin

aethal you were on a mission!

oi got everything crossed for you for a huge BFP soon.

chip good luck with the bed transition.

The weather is taking its toll here! I'm on coffee number five, and about as many episodes of shouting/temper losing with DS. He needs to go outside. We've got a christening to go to in an hour. Full Catholic one. Wish me luck!

Have fun hop, take some tech on silent to get you through...?

That's good news on the potty training aethel, seems to have been relatively painless, and good luck chip! We've got parents' eve next month, so will take a view with nursery if DS is ready yet.

Hope you got a good night's rest faffin, and hope it's made things seem a little brighter. Sounds like you're managing DD's issue extremely well, and it's a credit to you she's only had this one flare up. So glad to hear that she's got some pain relief stuff too.

Off into the garden now, some bits and bobs to plant out, seedlings to pot on, tying up to do. Oh, and Words to be had with DP about doing more around the house....

Two nights in and DS is sleeping well without the side on his cot...long may it continue!

DS has also done his first wee on the potty :) he had a wet nappy when he woke up and I put his pant on and a nappy on top as nursery suggested and I kept asking him if he needed a wee. I bribed him with a sticker to actually sit on the potty then put some cartoons on TV and read him a very noisy Fireman Sam book and heard a wee after a minute :) lots of praise and a sticker for doing a wee :) again fingers crossed!

Four days away from home as of tomorrow for work. Also just about to face mahooosssive pile of essays and exams to mark. Tiring enough normally but with first trimester tiredness I am properly dreading it

Mopsy I'm off 6.30 tomorrow until late Wednesday night to Birmingham am on a course which needs evening home work done so no point coming home. Almost cried putting DS to bed won't see him up again until Thursday never been away from him that long.

In other news we drive to Reddich today to rehome a 1yr old albino skunk said we wouldn't have another but miss our little girl. He's been kept outside so not litter trained so some work to be done but we had to rescue him he was owned by an animal encounter person who kept him near other animals which terrified him doesn't look his eye sight v good either (not a surprise as albino). We're such suckers

Oh wow figster that's awesome about the skunk! It's like my ILs, every time their dog dies (they get rescue ones that are often ill/elderly, it's not like they're bumping them off every 6 weeks) they swear they won't get another, and then.... Will you add a pic to your profile so we can see him?

Sorry to hear you and mopsy will be missing your DCs, hope the time flies for you.

Oooh, please put up pictures on FB figgy!

Oooh new skunk! Exciting!

I have been away once for six days (conference abroad) and it was hard. Four days is going to suck. Is too long. Minimopsy will miss me too and Mr. Mopsy will have to do all the work so will be crap for him.

In more positive news, house is on market and we had first viewing today...

Thanks everyone. It's amazing what a decent amount of sleep can do. Still a long way to go, but feeling much brighter now. She still needs to get the big lumps out, and still spent all day with stuff dripping out of her, but her skin is much better for having her bum out in the air for a couple of days and from using the spray. Bless her, she spent most of the day sat on the potty watching films or doing sticker books etc. but stayed in high spirits. We popped a nappy on her for a bit this afternoon so that she could have a run around in the garden with DS.

I hope the week flies by for you noth mopsy and figgy
