Tanya - I second what Georgi said, definitely worth looking at a day stay . Most people I know who have been seemed to find it useful, and hey, if you were just gonna be at home.... even if you learn one thing hopefully that's useful.

PP - :fingerscrossed: hope it's not chicken pox.

We've got hives this morning. But it's just on one leg so I'm a bit puzzled - but quite red & angry on much of the leg with little white areas in the centre of the hives iykwim. He was a bit fretful but has gone off ok so I figure they're not bothering him too much. The dog was in, and she may have managed to lick that leg (she's told not to lick but mebbe she snuck one in)... but he's been around the dog heaps before and not reacted. Anyone know anything useful re hives?

belfie- i get really bad hives, been gettin them almost everyday and annoyin the *****s outta me. theres red patches everywhere & it might even seem a bit diseased to ppl iykwim. if u say theres a white area lookup ringworm...my drs cant really find the cause of my hives cept allergy/hayfever so im plannin on gettin an allergy test done next time i visit. so long as he doesnt scratch them which will irritate them, it'll b ok. they usu disappear after a period of ignorance. if ur fussed then wipe him down with cold towel to cool him off. sorry i cant b much help, im a lil scattered brain atm

tanya- never hurt to try. as others hv said, u'll at least get something out of it.

pp- :hugs: hope ash gets better

theres something in the air...DS was real grizzly this morning. woke up 6am crying his heart out, didnt want a feed/change, took half hr to settle. same thing at 8am...he's usu a real easy baby, dunno wht happened...

belfie - i am sure i have mentioned the colossal allergies in our families - well, Riley is allergic to dog saliva - he will break out into hives/welts where the saliva has irritated the skin - he can pat them ok - just can't be licked. We had 2 dogs when he was born and then when he started running around we had to rehome them cos it was a nightmare - they were all just playing and it was unavoidable

anyway just some insight for you!

no time, gotta run - so sad ppl are leaving all over the place - Tanstar too

So glad our little thread is full of lovely ppl who do not judge, and are openly and genuinely caring

OMG hadn't realised Tan was leaving! That's what happens when you have a stooopid PC that crashes all the time - I miss reading stuff!

And bummer on the dogs, hope that doesn't happen to us!!!!

Georgi - Thanks again for the routine. Been trying some of it today. And I think I might look into a day program. As a few people have said if I was just going to be home anyway it can't hurt. And maybe I'll get something out of it?!

Sami - People are leaving? Tanstar is leaving? I had no idea?! How do you know people are going? I guess I feel like I never have time to read many other threads.

Wow.. I'm so glad this is such a supportive group. And that I can say anything without judgement.

ETA - Just found Tan's goodbye message. Sounds like she's leaving because of lack of time.

my fave pic of Jack at the moment....he looks soo grown up in his collared shirt

the heat is really knocking him around...but he just won't drink 'plain' water....
he is teething poor little mite...sore gums, and buckets of drool.....
