Mozzie bites maybe? If she's been attacked by them a lot they will look like cp spots and they will itch like nothing else.

Mozzie bites maybe? If she's been attacked by them a lot they will look like cp spots and they will itch like nothing else.
they could be, but usually when moo gets bitten by mozzies they get really big like a slight allergy.. fingers crossed its just something like that tho!! taking her to the dr when dh gets home tonight just to be sure coz weve got a family thing on saturday and my cousin is pregnant followed by a baby shower on the sun!
Google chicken pox images and compare them with what she has.
i hope she hasn't got pox noni, poor Asha :(
yeh they look similar :(
on a completely different note tho my house looks respectable 2 days in a row!
...well see Noni...it aint all bad ROFL!! nice clean house, ahhh what's that again?! LOL!
aaah noni i hope it is something like bites and not CP. though i guess better to get it ay 2yo than when they are older...
sorry have been so MIA girls - been away and sooo busy getting things ready for the move...
Also J is sick, had to take him for whooping cough (and other) tests today - not nice at all...
will try to pop back later and catch up on all the goings on...
xxx
dr thinks its some kinda skin infection, like school sores but not.. he didnt seem very sure at all and a bit confused.. i hate medical centres!! my dr is still on hols tho :(
he perscribed an anti biotic and an anti bacterial cream, im trying the cream first and seeing what happens coz i hate the kids being on anti biotics espeicially when the dr seemed unsure about what she had..
Molloscum contagiousum? have a google for images of that and see what you think. MC is very much like cp blisters and is actually in the same 'family' of viruses. At least if it is cp she will have true immunity from it now and so will Billy if he gets it.
Noni: maybe you could still apply some calamine lotion on her skin for the itching...like they do with CP...or that pinetarsol stuff in the bath...might give her some relief...
MP: oh dear! i hope that J doesnt have the nasty Whooping cough! how do they test for it?
Hope it clears up soon Noni, at least it isnt pox
Noni glad it isn't CP, I hope poor Asha wasnt up scratching all night.
MP I hope J is ok, thats terrible and the last thing you need while trying to move.
Clare how are you feeling? Any ms?
MM I am so glad the gromets have made a difference. We are TT here too, DH seems to be a whole lot better at then me though lol.
I cant remember what else has been said so a big hello to everyone else.
AFM not much happening here, I am hoping to catch up with Jaz while she is on the coast. L seems to be eating better now and his behaviour has improved so much this last week. I am not sure if it was a phase or if the multivitamins made a difference. We were giving him those kids fish oil tabs but they left him smelling like a fish tank lol.
Oz, we aren't sure if it was just a passing phase or the multivitamins either. But having a new baby in the house is a big adjustment too.
Kate, I read your FB status - I really hope that they recover your jewelery. Did anyone else notice the amount of theft/violence status updates around christmas this year? Some people are just scum.
Noni, hope that A's skin clears up soon. Good plan to try the cream first, if it is like CP then it is most likely viral and the antibiotics won't do anything anyway. Is Billy named after anyone? His name sounds really distinguished. I like it.
Ginger, was looking at your new FB pics, your boys are just beautiful! They look like little surfer dudes!
MM, good luck with the knickers at day care
MD, how is everything going with nooboob now?
Trill, did you finally get some good internet for a reasonable price in your area?
Well, at the grand old age of 28 months, William finally had his first ever grazed knee!
trill - it could be that, tho her spots dont look puss filled or as pronounced as the ones in the pictures i could find.. im really not sure, couldnt tell if they were better or not after the cream, she does seem to be itching less now and theyre atleast not worse so see how we go..
cassius - we bought calamine yesterday and have it on standby for the itching, she seems to be itching less today tho, always the way!
oz - she scratched so much one of the first nights she had it she fell out of bed poor thing :( thats part of the reason i thought it was chicken pox lol..
arte - billy is a nickname, but we call him that most of the time, his full name is William which is my pops middle name :)
all going ok here, house is a mess but it usually is before i clean it lol i never get up to a clean house :( have been doing much better with housework, getting the house looking decent before dh gets home and hes pretty happy about it.. have been taking a multivitamin (crushed in a smoothie) not feeling the affects yet but its only been 3 days so far.. still not eating very well (too much crap) but one thing at a time lol..
hope everyones having a good day!
noni - glad she is feeling better!
Arte - what did W do? not bad to make it to 28 months i guess! N got so many scratches and scrapes last week at the farm, but loved every minute of it. was such an enriching experience for him
Clare - how are you feeling?
All is ok here - the anti bis are helping J i think. i am prety sure it is whoping cough but we wont get the results til friday... poor little guy! i am up to date with his vaccs too... we are noving ahead with the house move - chosen agent to rent this house out, seena few of int in melb but cant get one til after NZ, booked movers, decided on car and we will get it when we get back from NZ (cally did you get your car??), got a nanny to interview in melbs... so all happening. DH has given notice at work too...
MM - hope you are doing ok. xxx
J was 6 months yest, i cant believe it! the time is going so fast!
Sorry i am not around much - life is just carzy atm but i am thinking of you all. xxx
hi girls!
Noni: how is Asha going? does look a bit better this evening? poor wee thing what with her falling out of bed from the scratching!
Arte: wow. my hat is off to you! 28 months and his FIRST knee scrape!!!!! gosh, Leila has one at least once a day lol! but she is a bit crazy lol!
Oz: eeewwww! not sure i could cope with the fishtank smell...i thought they had done all these ingenious things to mask it...ah well, fish is fish i guess!
MP: wowee sista! that is ALOT going on. nothing in halves hey?! LOL! so what car did you decide on??? we looked at cars today (not that we need one but we were servicing our car at the honda dealer...so you know how it goes lol). we do like the idea of the honda oddessy...can fit a few kids and a dog in that one LOL! but we are really wanting a hybrid next time. the honda civic hybrid looks great (just like our car ATM), but i just dont think it's going to be big enough for our road trips....ah well, will keep looking and dreaming!
MD: how you doing lately babe? in the post christmas crush?! i know i certainly am. cannae believe that it is all over!
AFM: all good here. m/s seems to be ok ATM. mostly at night and in the morning. have aversions to smells and am tired with a capital T. but that is probably not helped by my crapola iron issues.
Today DH took the day of work (:dance:) and we headed to st. kilda for fish and chips and to check out Luna Park. it was AWESOME fun!!!! we tried to get leila on the carousel...but she cracked it big time...was TERRIFIED...so we kept walking and all of a sudden she saw the 'dumbo' elephant ride. that goes around in circles and goes up and down (up to 4 metres in teh air), and yep, she wanted on...and LOVED it...so slow moving carousel with nursery rhymes fills her with fear, whereas flashing lights and flying elephants fills her with delight....cant win LOL!
Hi everyone!
Mp - sounds like things are a bit crazy at your place, I really don't know how you do it. Fingers crossed that J doesn't have whooping cough. No, we didn't get the car.
Noni - how is Asha going? poor little thing, scratching like that.
Clare - sounds like you had a very fun day.
Arte - very impressed that W got to this age without a scraped knee, I can't recall how many we have had here.
MM - so glad the grommets have made a difference. Isn't it great when they get that language explosion? K just chatters away all the time now, sometimes I wish she would be a little bit more quiet...
Well we are having big successes with sleeps. 3 weeks ago, she refused to have a day nap at home, took 30 minutes to get off to sleep at night and would end up in the spare bed with one of us in the middle of the night. Bedtime is great now, put her down, walk out and she's asleep in 5 minutes. She's had heaps of naps this week too without any fusses. I don't know how much of that though is because she is so zonked from not sleeping at 1am. We have put our feet down and no more spare bed sleeping, but she's not really getting the hint on it. We did resort to putting a gate across her door to keep her in her room - she can still see the spare bed from her door and we are taking it in turns. Tonight she is clutching a pair of DH's shorts and has a photo of DH and I stuck on the wall looking down at her. I think she is waking up scared of something, but it seems to happen about 4 times and it is every night so I really don't know. I do know that DH and I are going crazy though if we don't get it sorted soon!!
We are doing intensive swimming this fortnight too. 2nd lesson today and she has progressed so much. Yesterday I had tears when I made her put her head under water - today she was sitting on the steps and deliberately sliding down to the next level and putting her face under - such a difference! We also went swimming twice in Canberra last week so I think after these holidays she is going to just love the water.
DH wanted me to ask everyone how much whinging they get every day. We have had a lot lately where there is just nothing that seems to satisfy her. She is also very particular about things we do. We were having a babychino this morning and I passed her a fruit bar. She wanted me to open it, but I had my hands full so DH did it. It is her favourite sort of bar and she just chucked a complete wobbly because the wrong person opened it, ie throwing it across the table like it was contaminated waste!! He ended up taking her outside and I'm not sure what he did, but she was in a better mood when she came back. Dh thinks we have at least a solid hour of whinging every day. I'm tempted to get some multivitamins for her though after everyone's comments on them.
