I see you have made quote of the week Katy !

I keep saying I think D is 2 going on 13! We're just getting round to C's birthday celebration this Sunday.

Why the disguise SPB? Have I missed something?

Elkie also glad to hear that the news is good so far.Thinking of you.
M has been poorly for about a week.DH took him to docs yesterday eve his temp was 40.6!!
He has fluid leaking out of his right ear and dreadful red throat.It was along night last night.He seems better today,just have to keep him cool and give medicines.Feel dreadful,we should have taken him sooner but didn't

Oooggs hope he dosen't have to go too.
Re tantrums...they are such fun aren't they.I am going to have some too

We had 2 long nights.But he is perking up now...pale though but starting to eat.
We are spring cleaning!

oh good, hope you get some sleep tonight
reminds me...you know t used to get loads of ear infections? well he hasn't had ome since just after a was born, which is a whole (v cold) winter - hopefully that means he's grown out of them
have jinxed myself now

That is great spb..AM SURE YOU HAVEN'T

Good stuff SBP and Dooby

I am sure you guys all did this yonks ago, but my little baby P is sleeping in her Big Girl Bed for the very first time tonight!!!!! She's gone down, no probs, so let's hop she stays there, doesn't fall out and doesn't get up in the middle of the night Eeeeek!!!!!

Excellent CD - fingers crossed. O is still in her cot - must do something about getting a bed soon !

Fab DippyM still in cot,double bed in his room which we sometimes end up in though!
Hope you have a good night.

So far, so good Went to bed like a dream and is snoring away, has hardly moved

hope P slept in this morning dippy

bloody rain

birthdays are nearly upon us!!!!

dts have settling in session at new pre school tomorrow pm!!!

I am hoping to keep Luke in a cot for ages

Slept all night Woke briefly at 6am; but settled quickly and had to be woken up at 7:30!!!! Let's hope we have a repeat performance tonight!!

That was a good night CD!

It is F's birthday this coming Sunday so I think we will head out for the day, not sure where yet though, weather dependent I guess. I am getting her the Peppa Pig kitchen as she is quite into play cooking and is especially fond of Peppa. I have also seen a fab ice cream play set in ELC so might get that too.

SOL, F is going into school half days for the summer term, then full time in September. She will do 9 - 11.30am every morning after Easter. Same school as E for now, but in September he will go up to the juniors which is a totally separate place from the infants unfortunately. Bit of a nightmare to get them both to school on time I think, but will worry about that in September!!

I am going again now. I am whacked. Worked a night shift last night, have had 1.5 hours sleep this morning while F was in playgroup and really want to go back to bed! Looking forward to dh coming home around five as I will be heading up the stairs then I think!

You are a Super Hero SB - Do you ever wear your underpants on the outside of your trousers??

Bramshott, AngeG, SexonLegs - Anyone up for a "SE-ish Meet Up" over the Easter hols?? Maybe find a soft play place??

Evening all

Sorry I've neglected you all Could do with a bit of support this week. W has to have his front tooth taken out
Don't know if any of you remember, but about a year he faceplanted the drive, and knocked his front tooth. It's gradually been getting darker and darker, and last week the dentist confirmed he's got an infection in his gum, which means the tooth has to come out.

Thought I was ok ish about it, until today I started having a panic in work about it. Was quite sensible and rang the dentist, asking for a complete step by step guide on what will happen, and do feel a bit calmer.

I know the tooth is hurting him, because he won't bite on it. And that removing the tooth means there's a good chance his adult tooth will be unaffected. But I still feel crap.

he's having a local anaesthetic (really didn't want him to have GA) which means our regular dentist will do it. And W knows that the dentist is going to sort his naughty tooth out.

This parenting lark sucks Anyone know how I hand my notice in

Wow CD
Yes, I do remember that runny, sorry to hear it does have to come out after all
When is it happening?
Would it help to think of it as like a vaccination - some discomfort to save a load of possible pain and hassle later on? I know it's more significant than a vaccination but hopefully ykwim? Or else please just ignore me

Hi SPB

My mind knows that it is the best for W in the long term. Just my heart feels a bit heavy. (doesn't hep that I've got pmt atm

He's having it out on Thursday evening (late appt so no-one else will hear the crying)

Yours I bet

Just think of all the guilt-free spoiling you'll be able to do of him on Friday

Have got a few treats lined up for him (he's really into Mickey Mouse atm so a trip to the Disney shop could be on the cards)

Have told dh to make sure there is a bottle of wine ready in the fridge for me Thursday night.

Runny, I can totally understand how you feel because of F being in the same sort of position. I was gutted when she banged her tooth and it is definitely more prominent than it used to be. I have a bad feeling about the fact that hers may have to come out eventually and it scares the pants off me.
Just think, an infection which got out of control in his gum would be far worse, so it is better to be proactive and get rid of the problem before it escalates.
It won't be pleasant at the time, but kids have a tendency to be incredibly good at coping with all sorts of things so I am sure W will bounce back very quickly.
I am at the end of the phone if you need to chat any time, will be thinking of you on Thursday xxxx

CD, not a look I have ever tried tbh!!
