vic - my sister didn't have her first hair cut til she was 4 years old, we are very slow at growing hair! I think it will be quite a while before Archie needs to go to the hairdresser! Does Mel like getting her hair cut? Sorry to hear that Adam is keeping you both up at night, that is so frustrating and everything always seems worse at night too.

sheree - oh no! you just reminded me that the bath is full of pooey water and toys....bugger! im so sorry your cold is still awful, sounds like we have identical colds, but having it whilst g must be awful you can't even take cold and flu tablets, they are all that is keping me sane, is there anything that you are taking/doing to help ease the symptoms?? I really do hope it gets beeter quickly. I remember the sore glands during early pg, i put it down to growing boobs, gosh i hope mine don't grow again next pg! Love the new pic of Lachlan, very cute. DH nearly slept in the lounge last night too cause of my fever and snoring with my blocked up head! being sick sucks

christine - thanks for your sympathy, DH is pretty good at looking after me, not as good as a woman would but pretty good for a man he he. I can't believe your daughter is so big already! Its great that she has a goal to work towards for the next couple of years.

leanne - i can't believe the run of sickness' you have had lately you poor things!! Archie was waking up 6 times a night for a while there, so i bought a polar fleece sleeping bag suit and put a little column heater in his room and he has prety much slept through ever since, hope Katy's wakefullness is as easily cured! Sorry i don't have any suggestions for the psoarisis but i do know how embarrassing it can be to have snowy shoulders sometimes.

kim - you poor thing, i wish i could give you a magic recipe for sleep! i agree with Leanne i have heard that Phenergan is great just to help break the cycle of sleeplessness, its very personal as to whether or not to use drugs to gain some sleep, i personally will do ANYTHING to get sleep and would definately try a night on Phenergan (i realise it depends on the illness though...) anyway goodluck i hope something works soon. sorry for the rambleing

sara - oh you must be soooo close now! Thank god for inductions is all i can say, I was going completely made when i watched my due date come and go with no sign of labour at all. i didn't end up needing the induction, i went into labour only minutes before they inserted the gels! there is hope for you yet!

shazz - goodluck at the dentist

i didn't know a cold could cause so much pain and discomfort! I have been a person who rarely gets sick so this cold is really knocking me around, you would think that after going through pg, labour, birth and bfing a cold would be a walk i the park, but oh no, not for this sooky la la. DH bought me some cold and flu tablets last night and he had to produce photo I.D. and answer a set of questions on why he wanted the tablets! WTF!!! What is our world coming to???
