ITV's This Morning programme have invited me and Justine on to talk about the Toddlers book and want to also invite a couple of Mumsnetters to talk about how they got into Mumsnet and what Mumsnet means to them etc.

The date will probably be 4th or 5th Feb, they will need us between 9.30 and 12 and are prepared to pay travel expenses.

Anyone out there interested in snuggling up on the sofa? If you are, please put a bit of blurb about yourself here - how many children you have/how old, how you got into Mumsnet and what it means to you etc - so This Morning can decide who they might fancy inviting. If you do volunteer we may have to pass your email details on to This Morning, in case they want to chat to you, so shout now if you'd rather we didn't do that.

Thanks,

MNHQ

well, I will have you know......

I have been in hospital LOTS with DD1, DD3 and DS2 having the croup, and yes, if epiglotis develops it is bad, but that is not really croup, it is a complication of croup that is still rare.

so there!!!

VampiresWalkin · 29/01/2009 22:37

altho we have been effected with croup causing death........MILs uncle died when he was an infant from croup complications, but this was back in the 1910's, so not recent.

DH also was a croup sufferer..............seems to run deep in our family. tis VERY scary when they go blue from it I must admit........and the sirens on the ambulance are not good for my blood pressure.

DS2 has croup as we speak in fact.........three days now, might need to get the prednisalone(sp?) out for him if there is no relief tomorrow!

VampiresWalkin hope you feel better soon
