Hi everyone, Happy Mothers Day! Fairly boring here, M has a cold so we haven't exactly been celebrating, I have to whinge a bit, why is it that he can't possibly look after himself when he has a cold, but when I am sick I still have to do everything?!! Oh well, that's life I guess.

Anyway I didn't really want to do much for Mother's day, so I went out and bought cake and we'll have a nice afternoon tea at home later on. We had a lovely time on Friday night, and S was an angel for our friends who babysat. I even had some wine (i'd expressed milk so figure it was OK) and we had a great dinner. Might have to exploit that avenue again, I think!

Meanwhile S has had some incredible nappies, poo explosions LOL. This morning he did a massive one which leaked through his (disposable) nappy, clothes and muslin wrap, so I put him on the change mat, and then just took off everything and put it in a pile, dressed him in a cloth nappy and put all the dirty stuff together in the washing machine... I go to get the washing out later and realise I'd forgotten to take out the disposable nappy, yes, I WASHED IT So I've binned the disposable and rinsed the clothes once in the sink and then twice more through the washing machine, ugh, what a nightmare! They seem to be OK now, hope it hasn't done the washing machine any harm.

We've been out to the shops a couple of times this week to get clothes for M's Sydney trip and for work as he's moving from warehouse to office, and S has been in the HAB both times - it's great. He's either fallen asleep or just sat there looking around. So many people stare though, not in a bad way, just they think it's weird I think. But he seems to love it and it's comfy for me too, although I must admit he gets a bit heavy after a while.

Cass hope you're feeling better and Izzy is getting over her cold. I know the feeling when S is like that, it's exhausting not even being able to have a shower by yourself! It's also rough when you're on your own, you have my full admiration (I'm sure that doesn't make it any easier though) Re the bleeding maybe get a second opinion as our CHN said if it goes on for longer than 6 weeks you should get it checked out.

Jo glad the losec is working.

Sarah, bummer about going to your appt on the wrong day! I'll have to check out your photos soon, good thing you got to see your aunty and uncle.

Well, lunchtime here, think I might have scrambled eggs! Hope you all had a good day
