Fuzzy - I knw how that is, but I have a cold lately, so have more time ( couped up at home) so have been on here a bit more.

Belfie - hugs for DH he's just having a rough time of it huh?

Vix - yay for 9 months. I was saying yesterday - 22nd June - that Hannah was as old as a pregnancy! Right now my darling girl is laughing as she licks the rug she is sitting on. ( I typed this bit last - got to run now)

Pretz - I hear you - HB is cutting 3 teeth at the mo, and has been crying lots and really restless... but so far so good she hasn't caught my cold.... yet. FX.

I don't think we have a list in the thread - I have one someone I think, or Buzzie used to do them up, I will see if I can find one from our belly buddies days.

About being low on iron? Are you cold too? - I used to get so cold and shiver but wasn't sick with the flu. Also try iron rich foods - obviously meat and non meat things like - almonds, apricots, hommous, avocado, figs, miso soup, prunes, potato with skin, oatmeal, sesame seeds, peas in pod, soyabeans. I lost a lot of blood during one of my labours and was anaemic afterwards. I went to the Dr and was taking fefol ( iron and folate I think) and the accupuncturist also spoke to me about diet. But also increase your intake of water and fibre - iron makes you constipated and also turns your stool black. Yikes!

Symptoms include - fatigue, poor concentration, dizziness, reduced recovery from exercise, poor memory.
