Thought this was appropriate given latest discussion and thought I would start a new thread before this expires!!!!

Hello everyone!
Dal-sorry Dylan is poorly, sounds a bit like Shannon has been, and i took her for her MMR today she was so upset and slept for ages after it, she has only just had her lunch-rice pudding, banana and some grapes, the nurse said don't worry if she gets swellings, a rash or a fever in 2/3 weeks as it'll be down to the MMr, if she is actually poorly then it'll be something else yeah right, we'll see.
Oh and i went to pick a parcel up from the post office today, it was from a mumsnetter with loads of clothes in and a set of candles for me!! I nearly cried, it must be the secret santa thing, will need to try and find the thread to say thank you, also, i feel awful as Shannon has loads of clothes already, maybe i should send some of them on to someone else. Right i'm off to see if i can find the thread for the secret santa. love to all xx

Dal, I am looking for £30 for it plus delivery of course lol

Sized to fit a standard size crib mattress with support or plywood (not included) (grant made a base for it as they don't include it!!.

AndADalrympsInAPearTree · 11/12/2008 18:46

TLES - Thats a very good price... I'm not saying I'll buy it yet cause I haven't even discussed it with dh yet but just so I can give him all the details, do you know how much delivery would be to Berwick upon Tweed?

Hi All
Tried to post yesterday but the computer ate it!and I want in the mood to start again.
Sympathy to those with los who are unwell and those who are unwell themselves...may I join the ranks? I definately have 'flu and feel dreadful and Alex is pretty much the same with a streaming nose, an intermittent temperature and no appetite. Yesterday I struggled to get half a wheatabix down him for breakfast, a one egg spanish omlette (with potato,pepper,ham, asparagus,onion and cheese in it)for lunch (he ate about 2 thirds) he only managed 1 teaspoon of fromage frais in the afternoon and barely touched his honey roast chicken with sweetpotato, potato, carrot, broccoli, fine beans and asparagus for tea for tea despite the fact that we took him away for a bit and tried him again 3 times ...looks like today will be more of the same as we have just had a battle to get any wheatabix/toast/clementine down him...he just wants bf
Muppet I think you are right about better sleep following better eating, Alex definately wakes hungry in the night, moreso now that he is ill and not eating enough..Wow at Bens appetite though! No wonder he sleeps well!!! I totally understand how you are feeling about the scan...it happened to me too with my 5th but the statistics are in your favour and after next Thurs you will be able to relax and enjoy this pg and hopefully your migraines will disappear at the same time.

WWAJC I didnt respond to your suggestion that we go to the pottery place together...really dont know why I forgot to say a big YES I would love to...... is this still baby brain or was I always this dense?...give me a bell or drop me a line when you fancy going again.

Alice how is the house selling going? Is the new job still looking good?

bother...I was going to add a lot more but someone is trying to bash the laptop and is going to wipe this if I dont get it posted and pay him some attention..I'll be back later if I can get him to have a nap....

Just adding to the 'ill' ranks. I have been putting Jane's symptoms down to teething, as with everyone on here she is off food, temperature, diahhorea, grizzly etc then this morning she was covered head to toe in a rash, the doctor thinks its viral and to give her calpol every 4 hours and plently fluid. Other than the rash she has actaully been better this morning, happy playing and after the doctors eat most of her lunch. Fingers crossed its coming to the end. I dont know if you are all doing it anyway but he said when his kids get anything and seem unwell he always gives them calpol 4 hourly for a couple of days to keep them comfortable. Sorry to post and run, DH is off Jane is sleeping so going to get xmas decorations up
