I'm such a bad mummy today - got fluffy mail (nappies for those not in the know) and they chucked in a small packet (22g) of natural confectionary company lollies. Since i'm on a diet - I let Aricyn eat them all.. pmsl... he LOVES them - its the only lollies he eats (and the only time he gets lollies - when I get them free from fluffy mail.. lol)

But at least those lollies are natural!! My 2.5yo will sit and eat a whole packet of them (or chockie bikkies if daddy is home! ) rather than dinner!

Well.. its day 3 of diet... so far so good...

Yay for your diet going well!

he has poor circulation and we need to be so much on the ball he doesn't get over weight as it makes it worse for him.

You know what, I take flaxseed oil capsules cause the tips of my fingers were splitting heaps (at any one time, I would have about 7 or 8 of them - thumbs included - plastered with bandaids cause they would split and bleed so much!) and I read that flaxseed oil may help that condition. It is a vegetable source of omegas 3, 6 and 9 and the bottle says it may help with blood circulation. The capsules are quite big (if you have ever taken blackmores pregnancy vitamins, they are the same size) BUT you can buy it from health food shops in a cold pressed liquid form. If he eats porridge, you can mix it in and you can't taste it (I tried it with weet bix but you can still taste it). Because it's natural, I can't see the harm in giving it to little kids ... PM me if you want more info!

thats quite interesting i might look into it, as long as he isn't to chubby we are good. When he was a baby, i would get strangers coming up to me saying i was neglecting my son and should rush him to hospital instead of shopping because i couldn't hold him without his legs going purple and splotchy. I would have to explain to every one he was fine but was scary when it first happened. I would have to be carefull the hair folicals wouldn't get infected to bad too or else the looks Ind stares comments behind my back were real bad.

leash honey - tell Shel to get her finger out of her goddamn ar$e and bloody help you around the house.

FFS - you can't be expected to do EVERYTHING.

Tell her to be nice and helpful or else I'll drive 20 minutes to your house and give her a mellie b!tch slappin and tell her to pull her socks up!!!!

*cough cough*

welllll.. I have been in a few fights in my time...

I can't stand it when people show disrespect. It absolutely gets my goat (see.. showing my age here too... )

If people's partners would just be nice, and HELPFUL.. then I bet there would be a lot less PND going on... JMO of course...

Oh - and I haven't had my 6 week check up yet - couldn't get in till October - but HEY.. I don't mind waiting for my pap smear.. LOL

ooh and i got a nice little surprise from the tax office today - DH said I should spend like $300 on something just for me - can't think of anything I want - more nappies!?! LOL

Sings "i'm a nappy addict.. short and stout... "

Geez.. think I've been a mother too long - starting to sing nursery rhymes with different wording.. thats just.... sad....

OMG!!! That is hilarious!! I'm glad I'm not the only one!! I often sing to Veygas (and to the others when they were babies) to the tunes of "This old man" and "Frere Jacques"!! The other night, I was singing to Veygas "You think mummy's crazy, you think mummy's crazy, yes you do, I do too!!" and he had the biggest smile on his face!

But then again, I change the words to lots of songs - "Hey there Georgie girl" becomes "Hey there, Veygy boy" (and was "Hey there Khaemy boy" to DS2!!) and Crowded House's "Better be home soon" Becomes "Daddy's gonna be home soon" (cause he gets home around 7.30am!)

Ok, so I'm officially crazy!!!!

Hi there Mummies!

I've been having computer issues and DF last night had to wipe the whole thing and start again! ARGH @ technology!
So, I have NO chance in you know where of catching up, so I am going to start from now!

Seven has given us a rough start the past 5 nights. I really need to try and keep her awake more during the day, but how do you keep a 5 week old baby awake when they don't want to be!!!!

We also have her on Infant's Friend and Brauers Stomach Calm, as her stomach works overtime 24/7. She is constantly pushing, grunting and groaning, and it can't be comfortable for her, but, she rarely cries or screams, only when she is so tired she loses the plot, and even then it doesn't last long.
She just has a habit of being awake from about 11-2!!! ARGH!!!

Anyhoo, enough about me. I hope you are all well, and getting plenty of rest. HA who am I kidding?!?!?!?!

Hope you are all having a good day, hopefully I can come back later and TRY to catch up!

Love & Hugs
