Lizz- Have you checked you are getting all the benefits you are entitled to? Might be worth looking into how much help you would get with childcare through tax credits to see if it was worth looking at jobs in the week? Or do you think that Lemon drizzle cakes would post? You could make a fortune just from the Jan thread!
Urban- Much, much sypathy with the MS . Can you keep anything down? I know they told me that the only thing that would help was anti sickness drugs but think they only give them to people with that hyper thingy morning sickness where they have to admit you into hospital. I found smoothees and soups helped as you can get quite a lot of nutrients into them but they are easy on the stomach. And not so horrible on the way back up! I mostly wanted to eat salty things.
Are you taking folic acid still? If you are, I took it just before I went to bed and that helped ALOT. Seemed to make the ms so much worse in the day.
I was so miserable this time with it all but when it did go, it was such a relief. I know it is no consolation and it drove me mad when everyone was saying it to me, but it really wont last.
Milk; What temp do you give Z the cow milk? Ruth wont drink cold milk out of the fridge but if I put it in the microwave so it is lukewarm, she glugs it. Might be worth tring to get it to body temp to see if that helps? My friend started giving her lo a biscuit with her milk to start with as it sort of sweetens the milk if they are eating them together.
EAH- Thanks. I wish you could come too!!! Mum is going to help me nex few days so I can just tell her what to do. Mums are the best!
