Leanne - Oh no how scary. Glad he is safe and sound and coming back tonight. Is this the Las Vegas trip?
Arte - Aww Will loves the dog water doesnt he!
MD - Oh that choking incident is scary! They better do something about it now. Re finger food, I break bananas in half so she can hold one end and munch the other. Toast/sandwiches I cut into triangles and let her eat away, always keeping a close eye of course, but I'm certainly not as paranoid about it as I once was hehe. M doesnt tend to cram though so I can understand your worry about that.
Need some advice girls, the rash on M has gone red again and she feels so bumpy. Apart from that she is fine and happy. I rang the doc but they cant get me in at all today unless there is a cancellation but I'm not holding my breath on that one. What else can I do? If it was something seriously nasty it would have developed further than what its at by now right? She has had it since Mon morning. Should I be a paranoid mummy & go into town to the hospital or just wait it out? My gut feeling is that its nothing serious, but on the other hand I'm not a doctor and I'd hate to sit back & not do anything if it needs attending to kwim?
MM - I'd ring the dr's surgery and keep asking if there's a cancellation, stress that it's for a baby and there's a rash and you are worried, they should do something to fit you in. IF they say there hasn't been a cancellation, ask to speak to the dr yourself (on the ph). Drs usually can squeeze another slot in if there's any concern there.
ETA - it doesn't sound so serious but you are worried and shouldn't have to spend another 24 hrs worrying, kwim?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Pregpan!!!!! I hope you are having a great day with your boys
H, that sounds like a reaction to something for it to come up, settle and then come up again. How many times has she been swimming? Do you thnk it could be the pool chlorine?
Marydean, with Bananas, I break a piece off, then split it into three, following the way it's meant to naturally split kwim? I don't cut it because it makes it too slippery for him to pick up and it tends to stick to the bowl. Apple I will cut in fingers, sandwiches I cut into soliders.
Clare, lets hope that by tomorrow they will be all the way through for her.
Alister is being sooo clingy today. I feel like I still have the unbilical cord attached LOL. he is a little bit off his food too, so not sure if it's teeth, he's getting sick or if he is just having a crap day. He is having a sleep now though so hopefully he will be in a better mood when he wakes up.
Happy Birthday Pregpan!!!!!!!! I hope N sleeps well for you tonight.
sherie - i hope A isn't coming down with something. It makes it hard to get things done when they're clingy :
off to give the girls bed time snuggles - bbl.
mm - have you done the glass test on M's rash? ie put a glass on the rash, if it disappears it is generally viral.
another question - has she worn any new clothes recently?

Pregpan wishing you a very happy birthday. I hope you got spoilt with lots of hugs and kisses.
Sorry for the selfish post I dont have a lot of time to write at the moment but just wanted to say I am very excited because I just got my smart trike and have put it together. Logan loves it. I have a friend who's son works at target so he got it early and got a staff discount. I am praying it doesnt rain tomorrow so we can go for a walk. I will upload a pic to my gallery.
Katie - Love the pic of Logan on his smart trike! How cool. Are they like the ones that you can push around?
Jazmum - Ohhhh OMG Jazmum I think you have solved the mystery rash for me!? I had her in a dress she has never worn before on Sunday, and it hadnt been washed, it was brand new & I remember taking the price tag off it. Oh god I feel so bad now. 99% of the time I was new clothes before she wears them but I didnt with this one. Must be that because we noticed the rash on Mon morning! Although I have put her in brand new unwashed clothes once or twice before and no reaction? Anyway I didnt take her to the doc, she had a big sleep & when she woke it was alot better, so its improving. Wow how does the glass test work?
Trillian - Oh no hope Alister is doing ok & isnt getting sick. Maybe he just wants extra mummy cuddles hehe. No this was her first time in chlorine today.
MD - Thanks for your advice. I decided to wait until she woke up from her nap & decide what to do then. Luckily it had gone down heaps, so I'm just keeping an eye on her. Besides I think Jazmum has solved the mystery!
