Kathryn - I was lucky getting it because she was 18mths in December, but because the surgery was closed over the holidays, I couldn't get in till January anyway. She didn't have a reaction, unlike the other kids who did. When Lindsay had his done I was 32wks with Erin and was a bit worried, but the Doc said that they aren't contagious spots, so when it happened with Erin and I was again heavily pg with Paige, I didn't worry. I'd also had them as a kid really badly so I was really keen to get the kids done to try to protect them from having to go through that.

I wish I only had the one child today. We had a BBQ yesterday and the kids are all still tired and cranky - so sleeps for all this afternoon.

DD - Touch wood I've never had a biter, but friends have and they just didn't do much about it apart from the token - 'Dont do that'. As for tanti throwing, Paige is the champ! She gets the funniest looks on her face and will give you a really pouty look from under her brow - it's so funny to watch her.
