Jess, nulax is fine to use during breastfeeding. It's a fruit based laxative. I had haemorrhoids. I bought some proctocedal over the counter at the chemist to help with that. it's just ointment you apply to the 'area' hehehe. It really works. I had them before I was pregnant but they got worse when I was pregnant and after I gave birth. They're much better now though but god they are uncomfortable when they're bad.
weather is terrible here at the moment. It's sooooo windy. It's sunny one minute and then rainy the next. Can't do much cos you don't know what the weather is going to do!
Hmmmmm, pressies for parents can be difficult. What about a nice dinner somewhere really upper class for her and her partner??? I'm hopeless when it comes to presents. Does she like music? Maybe you could get her tickets to a show or something......
