Hi NL. I survived thank you, but am worried about K's cough. How are you?
The day was mad. Left home at 8.30, dropped off B, dropped off K, went to work, left work, picked up B, picked up K and went to pool for B's swimming lesson. Back home at 5.30 to sort out tea for them both. Then bath and bed time palava! They were both in bed by 7.20!

Tcmummy, meant to say - what a mad weekend!!! Hope you can have a break now and get someone else to cook for you!!

DippyChristmas · 04/12/2007 20:01

Glad work was ok, SOL .... poor K - I think you've done everything you can - I can pray for her if you like .....

Right, DH has just announced curry is ready, so I'm off .....

NorthernLurkerwithastarontop · 04/12/2007 20:02

Hi SOL - I'm fine but exhausted reading about your day!

NorthernLurkerwithastarontop · 04/12/2007 20:03

Hi Dippy too of course

Sexmasonlegs · 04/12/2007 20:07

Hi Dippy, how are you? I would love it if you could pray for K thank you. x

elkiedee · 04/12/2007 20:32

Sorry to hear K's sick, SOL.

NL, I think the problem is that only a few women actually get on to the NCT antenatal classes and the hospital classes are a matter of luck as well. At least those of us finding our way to MN have somewhere to ask.

leakythesnowman · 04/12/2007 20:33

Evening

Off to bathe then bed, still feel rotten with this stinky cold. Hoping that G cooperates and sleeps better tonight.

SOL - sounds like you've covered everything with K. Poor little thing hope she feels better soon.

Norma - would love a coffee - next week is a bit up in the air (possible friends visiting/possible need to go up to Newcastle to see gran). Will email you when I know more.

GMM - at garage, at helpful men. Hope you're ok now. Love your Christmas name.

Eddas - hope you can sort something out for new car. Awful stressful time.

Sorry if I've missed anyone. Off to clear my passages. Goodnight.

normabutty · 04/12/2007 20:34

No problems Leaky

cazboldy · 04/12/2007 20:34

hey sol, I have the same buggy as you!

jingleoooggs · 04/12/2007 20:36

isn't this our own delightful weeonion who needs some help

NorthernLurkerwithastarontop · 04/12/2007 20:37

That's a good point Elkie - better to ask here than not at all - I have to admit - it did make me smile rather.

mammyjounderthemistletoe · 04/12/2007 20:43

Evening all. SOL, hope K settles and manages to sleep with her cough. Dont think there is anything else you could do. I have heard that vaporub on feet is good too! Never tried it though. Glad she was ok at nursery today. It is so much harder with 2 dc's isnt it - having to flit around from one place to another picking them up. Sometimes I feel like I spend half my day on the road.
Have got some great suggestions for a place to eat out in covent garden too so thanks for the nudge!

Nutty, glad the hangover has subsided I still wonder about the hat incident

Eddas, hope you sort out something with the car. Its awful that someone else bumps you, but you end up with the financial headache over what to do about it. > that you get a new car soon xx

normabutty · 04/12/2007 20:49

Right there's a couple of pics from the Xmas meet-up on my profile!!!!!

Sexmasonlegs · 04/12/2007 20:58

Dippy, your prayers seem to have worked, as K hasn't coughed in a while. Thank you. xx

GMM, meant to say how cross I was reading your post. Thank God for those helpful men. Hope you get the tyre sorted.

Leaky, hope you are feeling better soon you poor love. xx

MJ, glad you have got some ideas for your London trip.

It is so hard with 2 dc's isn't it - the whole logistics thing.

I know I have only been back 2 days, but I am wondering how everything is going to pan out. Dh works like a dog as well, so don't see him being able to do the housework!!

Elkie, hope D is ok btw. What a huge sleep!!

Sexmasonlegs · 04/12/2007 20:59

And Nutty, your pics are fabulous!!

mammyjounderthemistletoe · 04/12/2007 21:01

Poor tech looks a bit bemused by the pair of you!!

mammyjounderthemistletoe · 04/12/2007 21:04

Off now to watch the delectable Gordon Ramsay who is in Wales tonight on Channel 4!! I think the featured couple say the words "fuck off" more than he does!! I do love Gordon
Night all xxx

Bramshott · 04/12/2007 21:15

NB - love the photos - had to laugh, as I have bought the same bunny that E has, for O for Christmas.

SOL - sounds like you are doing amazingly! To work all day, and then get to swimming too, and them both in bed by 7.20! It will get easier as your systems get more embedded - when O first went to the childminder, packing her bag each night felt like a chore, but now it's part of my evening routine and I barely notice it. It's such a worry when they're ill and you can't be there isn't it?

Mammyjo - sounds like you have got some good ideas from your other thread. Hope you find a good meal, and have a great evening tomorrow.

Eddas - pants about the car. Hope you can make a plan and get it sorted.

NL - I can see what you mean about the hot water bottle query! Mind you, I remember when N was small, asking the HV if it was okay for her to be in the bathroom while I was having a shower?!

DippyChristmas · 04/12/2007 21:20

LOL MJ

Glad K seems to have stopped coughing, SOL - have been praying

Ploughing through Christmas newsletter ......

PillockOfTheCommunity · 04/12/2007 21:27

Joe is ill, very ill
he is now losing weight instead of just not gaining
he seems vacant and 'away with the fairies' when he is awake, and spends most of his time asleep

the HV has asked me to take him back to the doc and get a referal to a paediatrician immediately.

I don't usually worry but I am now, my baby doesn't look like my baby, I feel like he might break every time I pick him up

And just in case Justin's family are reading this (as I suspect they are) could you please inform him as he is ignoring my text.

geordiemacminxpie · 04/12/2007 21:29

Ellie - dont know what to say - hope Joe is ok. Are you going to the docs tomorrow?[[[[[HUGS}}}}}

DippyChristmas · 04/12/2007 21:32

Praying, E - don't know what else to do /say - Have you though about getting him referred through A&E. Here for you. xxxx
