I'm LOLing because I've started another rush of Splayde envy for the second year running . I didn't know they did mini splaydes either Trill, until my friend said she saw them on special...I instantly knew I needed them - perfect for cakes & dessert occasions, kwim?

Trill - I feel really sore now - I think it's my back rearranging itself - not to mention the hole!!! - but I expect to feel a lot more comfy tomorrow after a good sleep. I'm in a special highly ugly beige post-surgical bra by a co called amoena who do all the prosthesis bras. It does up at the front & is very supportive and I'm on drs orders to wear it night and day for at least 2 months. After that I expect to diversify into some nicer soft cups for a few months but eventually I should be able to wear underwires again. I could do with some Endless Comfort LOL - my underarm is still so swollen even this bra gets old around 7pm before I settle in for yet another 24 hrs of wearing it!!!

Arte - go the sporks!!! Your DH can enjoy using his clumsy old-fashioned knife and fork while you spork away happily by yourself. LOL Sorry no suggestions other than to implement a quiet time every day - when W is confined to his room to play by himself - quiet time with books or a CD or a DVD - just to give yourself time out.

Cally - yay for your new fence!!! Well done on your progress with the sleeping. DD1 used to make a real fuss and crying carry on until one night I had some friends around for a nutrimetics demonstration, and a friend who was her FDC lady came in and put the hard word on her...and DD1 LAUGHED. The game was up then, from then we knew she was just playing the game and not genuinely distressed, it was easier to be firm after that. Good luck with the car!!!
