Hi all,

Jules, glad things are good up your way

MadB, I used to eat paper and wiping Millie's nose today she stuck her tongue out and swiped a bit of the tissue. Tried to fish it out but she swallowed it. She's eating so little at the moment (bottle and solids) that I figure it can't hurt

EJ I'm hoping for some answers for you SOON. Glad Charlie has not had any more breathing issues.

Cathie, Crumpet and Charlotte, I haven't used eukybear rub. Must try it out. I have been using vicks baby balsam on Millie.

Kaz, hoping Will's cough goes away without issue

Georgi, good to know the necklace can still be effective without it being on overnight!

As for us, the paed was very lovely and so reassuring. She confirmed bronchiolitis but is not concerned about Millie taking so little at her feeds as she does still have wet and yucky nappies, and from her examination she thinks she is past the worst. God, I hope so. last night was awful, she went from playing happily to coughing and crying hysterically in 2 seconds flat. It was almost physically painful to see her so distressed. Managed to calm her down and get some ventolin into her - thankfully all the tricks Mum used with me work with her too. I slept in her room last night which was good, I was reassured to hear her breathing and was quick to calm her when she started coughing so it didn't escalate. She's a lot better this evening so

Had a message from a friend today. She's pregnant I'm the only person she's telling other than family til 12 weeks so I can't even tell DH... just had to share though. So glad you guys are good secret keepers LOL.

I am trying to write an expression of interest for the relieving HT job (part time) that was sort of created for me (politics - it's a paid position so has to go to EOI). So disinterested but I said a couple of months ago that I'd be interested so I am trying to cobble together an EOI. Blah. At this point am hoping someone else is a better candidate.

Hope you and yours are doing well.
