amy - I also have a UTI. I've been feeling terrible over the last couple of days and finally saw a doctor today. Hopefully it'll clear up soon. So I can imagine how poor Bethany must be feeling. What did the paeds come up with for Bethany? I hope things improve soon!

fluff - That's great on the "dada" Maya did it over and over again for days and now has stopped.

Well I had an annoying day yesterday. Most of you know this already, but just want to vent once more. Went to an ABA meeting for the first time. I was having a cup of tea and another woman (who has a toddler) insisted on holding Maya. She knelt down on the floor and was cuddling Maya. Then had Maya on her knee and wasn't supporting her well, but I stupidly didn't say anything cos I assumed she was ready to catch her. Then she saw that Maya can stand (with support!!!!) and so she let Maya stand and then let go! So Maya fell forwards and planted her face into the floor! OMG I was so upset and so ****ed off. The woman just said "oh I thought she could stand" and "I forgot that you have to support them". The woman is heavily pregnant, but I don't think there's any excuse for it at all! It makes me feel like I don't want to let anyone hold Maya (other than people I know and trust of course). Then I was worried that Maya was injured and wasn't sure if I should be taking her to see someone. But she calmed as soon as I held her so I thought surely if she was badly injured she would keep crying. Anyway, not a nice experience for me or Maya!
