Thanks for all your kind responses. I finally managed to get some from a friend in Paris who was coming to London this weekend. I also have some posted to me from Istanbul and Bulgaria (it seems the UK is one of the very few countries where it is prescription only!). My UK GP still refuses to prescribe (as she hasn't heard of it) but now my oby-gyn has agreed to do a prescription for me to pick up on Wednesday - so I have domperidone coming out my ears! Thanks again :-) As long as it's not coming out of the baby's ears !! lol

That's really sad GE :( Ours weren't great either - my dad employed a friend as a favour to help his new business and they're just snaps really but it was a long time ago - wedding photography is way more artistic nowadays... But we did have a friend do a video for us and he made a fantastic job of it... I love photographing people and always take masses of pics at weddings - I have albums full of them and everyone says the professional once are nice but informal ones seem to capture the day much better and make nicer mementos... so I agree that a guest who is a friend is probably the best choice plus GE's idea is great - I've been to weddings where there is a disposable camera on each place setting for the guests to use and leave behind - great fun !!

I have been taking some over the counter medication for the last few days to help with breastfeeding, in just a few days I have more than doubled supply (need to double again). It's now been changed to prescription only (new rules yesterday) and the UK GP I have seen refuses to prescribe it as 'she hasn't heard of it for this use'. The drug name is domperidone, it is technically used for nausea but well known by lactation consultants is that a side effect is an increase breast milk (unfortunately for some they have an increase without needing it!). If anyone is travelling to the UK over the next few days I would be most grateful if they could bring me some. I will arrange for a friend in Dubai to buy it and can either Aramex it to you or ask someone to drop it off. Here is some more information about it: http://www.bedfordhospital.nhs.uk/upload_folder/patient%20information/domperidone%20to%20increase%20breast%20milk%20production.pdf http://www.colchesterhospital.nhs.uk/patient_information/maternity/763n4%20Domperidone.pdf TIA. so you're asking for someone to carry a prescription only medication into the UK which they have been given by a stranger to giveTO a stranger ?

It does sound like a form of post natal depression to me, even if just a mild case, I would encourage you to try and speak to someone professionally. Almost everyone at Lifeworks is good. Maybe have a look at their website and have a think about it possibly being PND... Nice ad

Have you considered posting this on the Facebook group where you're meeting these people ? Not in a complaining way and not pointing any fingers of course but maybe you could just use it to reach out and see what feedback you get... I have experienced this before (on the receiving end) when someone loves to make new friends, goes out of their way to find them but doesn't make any effort to maintain the relationship and then drops them suddenly for no reason, as if the biggest kick of the whole thing is the finding rather than the keeping..if that makes sense... I'll admit it is nice when you click with someone on a forum or facebook group but it's a two way street and you both need to make the effort... Although to be honest, for me, all this making an effort can get too much and most of the time i'm happier mooching around on my own !! lol I agree with the poster who said maybe you are trying too hard - start looking for women you can have an occasional coffee or lunch with (don't let your children's naps control you, if you're out they can sleep in their buggy - mine did all the time) rather than hoping everyone you meet is going to be your new BFF (ugh !! horrible term !! lol). Join some different groups or forums...spread your net wider and try not to take things to heart...all mums are busy and I doubt many of them are doing this on purpose...sometimes we forget or accept invitations because we don't want to offend yet when the time comes find ourselves making an excuse...there are as many different types of behaviour here as there are people...you have to kiss a lot of frogs...so to speak :D

I am a veterinary nurse with 18+years experience in UK & Australia. I was always a pet-sitter for our veterinary clients in central London & although had insurance, never ever needed to use it. I now pet sit for people in Arabian Ranches. I do not have insurance here as it is more of a hobby for me than anything else. I do it for people I know or living locally to me. I do it for the love of the furries than as my 'job'. Insurance only covers things such as needing a locksmith in case of lost keys, damages etc... But TBH as long as your pet sitter is switched on & has a good eye for details & is careful there shouldn't be any need for insurance. Pet health expenses are always covered by the owners... I doubt you'd be able to get insurance for an unlicenced business anyway...

We're still in the UK - usually get back a few days before school..Sleep habits are the hardest thing but as soon as school starts it all seems to magically fall in place. My husband stays home so there's no issues with food shopping or anything. Biggest problem we have is trying to get the 10 year old to sleep early in the UK when it's still light out so he gets into the habit of late nights and late mornings !! Don't worry - once school starts it usually settles..a couple of 6 o'clock alarms sorts everything out !! lol

Firstly these seat lock things should be banned by all airlines with heavy fines in place for anyone using them. Secondly if passengers want cheaper travel then they should be prepared to have seats close to each other, if you are 8 ft 2 or fat then buy business. The issue is one the airlines need to address by simply giving more leg room and redesigning food trays to come from the center not the seat in front. I'm appalled that there are fights from grown adults on planes over the fact a chair reclines all of 4 inches, it's quite pathetic. The airlines need to take a strong stance on this poor behaviour and make it clear that such behaviour will not be tolerated. If part of your package is that a seat reclines it is no ones right to dictate (except the airline) when you should recline your seat. Airlines won't redesign to give MORE leg room etc, if anything they will be making less as it's all about making money...they are running a business.. So easy for people to say "buy business"...oh how I wish I could afford it but sadly, for those of us in the real world it's a struggle to even afford cattle !! The inventor of this gadget says it's not intended to prevent the seat in front reclining, merely to make the inclining act slower so that the seat doesn't suddenly drop down without warning causing the person behind to have their drink spilled or whatever...

The high road never stops these people, it makes them angrier and they get worse. That is fine if the person taking the high road has the strength to do it, if not, as it is not in this case, the person taking the high road will worsen. Every time she replies to a post, begin the next post addressing the members as follows @B!tchface LOL. Loser. @Everyone else… xxx And never. Never stop doing that. She will reply, when she does, do not address it simply go back to the template @B!tchface LOL. Loser. And eventually she will see that she has the EXACT response each time and will soon grow tired of it and stop. If she gets really, really mean, here is what to do… @B!tchface LOL. Loser. Or… @B!tchface, this opinion is both interesting and profound. xx Then copy and paste THE IDENTICAL response each time she comments. She will stop. Sorry but this is terrible advice...how on earth is calling someone B!tchface / Loser any way to behave ? It depends whether this is a forum or facebook as on Facebook everyone is more easily identified and on a forum you can be anyone... If it's a forum then I would say report to the admin and then ignore..change your name if need be..of course the obvious answer is to simply not log on or post. Why do you need a site that makes you feel bad, especially when you are pregnant ? There are loads of them around, it's unlikely that it is the only one serving your particular interest. If it's a facebook group you can report to the admin, leave the group (again, there are loads available - it can't be that hard to find another one), still look at the group but stop commenting, or message the woman directly asking why she has a problem with you. People who say these people do it out of jealousy intrigue me...jealous of what exactly ? and what does that actually mean ? It's the internet, none of us have any idea what is going on in anyone else's life or head... And if all else fails there is a magic X in the top right hand corner of your screen - it solves everything, honest :) As an after thought i'd just like to add that there is a big difference between forums and facebook groups - much as some FB admin like to think they are running a "Forum" , if it is an actual forum your admin should be monitoring this behaviour and dealing with it on your behalf... <em>edited by Doubting Thomas on 29/08/2014</em>

I won't even let my 10 year old boil a kettle ...sorry but the whole gun thing is a mystery to me and most people I know... From the video it's clear what happened and i'm sure anyone in their right mind should have realised, as someone already said, that there's no way a child that size would have the bodyweight required to cope with an automatic round... Tragic but sadly not really news any more... Really?? Tomorrow I take 20 girls off to Guide camp, many of them are 10 year olds and they will be doing what Guides have been doing for 105 years, cooking on open fires, heating water to make hot drinks and wash dishes, cutting up meat and veg and chopping wood to burn! Yes, really.

DT, I have seen on my FB people posting their ice bucket challenge. I have not opened any links. But when I was watching the news in Holland and it actually discussed the disease, that is when I actually knew what ALS was. Not because of people throwing ice buckets, but because it was talked about. So for me personally, the campaign did absolutely nothing. so you have an opinion even though you haven't opened any links or bothered to find out WHY the campaign features iced water over the head...and now that you do know why, you still think it's waste... Yes I have an opinion because [b'>you don't HAVE to open a link to know what the campaign is about[/b'>. And YES I still think it's wrong to waste water, something many people are without (And no, you can't compare it to drinking water or eating food, or not doing so because others don't have it), in order to get a message across. ok, so you're psychic !! and really, as it has already been pointed out, it's a bit rich for anyone living in Dubai to complain about the wastage of water, especially in this case...

As much as I think everyone needs to be aware of this horrible disease, and that it's great awareness is created, I really dislike the way they chose to do it. People all over the world are without clean water, so many campaigns are ran to make people aware of it and efforts are made to help people gain access to clean water. And then on the other side people are wasting it by the bucket loads to create awareness of something else. I know water is wasted everywhere, but when you are aiming for a good cause, more thought should go into how it should be done and what is responsible. Just my opinion. The object is to mimic the mind numbing experience that MND sufferers live with constantly - not just for a few seconds.. btw - there is a lot of anti-Macmillan feeling on social media for the way they not only have jumped on to another charity's campaign but also the paid for advert they took out on Facebook to promote it... As regards the water argument - in my opinion it's the same as the one used when we leave food on our plate while there are starving children in the world - unless we package up the food and send it to them they will still be starving whether we eat it or not...same with water, so why not use it to raise awareness....and that's the point - until I saw the ALS/MND on these posts I didn't know that the condition has two names or much about it at all really...so it worked on me at least !! lol

[i'>LOL DT! Profuse apologies... I do realise they have a constitutional role, but many foreigners seem to assume that we live in total adulation of them. This is far from the truth in a modern, democratic society. For instance, many of my friends would not bow or courtesy for the queen given that she is there due to an accident of birth. Having said that. she does do an excellent job at fulfilling her role and representing the UK overseas. And let's not forget how much income the royals generate in terms of tourism. Lol.[/i'> Luckily I don't know anyone who wouldn't be proud to curtsey to the Queen should they ever be fortunate enough to meet her....Maybe foreigners have this impression because they see pictures of the crowds a Royal Visit attracts and the countrywide excitement generated by royal occasions such as a wedding or birth...

If by Western society you mean the Americans, you are right. However the above statement can also be easily applied to English westerners, the entire population is very keenly tuned into divisions of class (you only have to look at the exclusivity the Royal family enjoy with their self conferred titles and the titles they bestow on others who are somehow deemed more high class than those without; and the extremely tight elite circles they move in), they even notice things like accents, places one lives and the connotations it has. Class based mindsets to the core, quite like the Indian population in this aspect, although the latter slots people into a particular class based on different criteria. I think you have been watching too much Downton Abbey. LOL !! Is this how foreigners still perceive our Royals ?? I agree... that's a very outdated view of British society. Granted, there is a class system in the UK like anywhere else in the world. But in many ways there is greater upward social mobility than in other countries. In France, for example, it is virtually impossible to climb the corporate ladder without having attended a top university. But in Britain I worked with many people who reached senior mgt levels through sheer hard work - some from deprived backgrounds who had left school at 16. That would have have been almost unthinkable across the channel. It's also worth noting that the royal family has a purely symbolic role in the UK and is not *really* taken seriously! For some reason foreigners seem to misconstrue this though and assume we live in veneration of them. LOL. White Orchid - the way your quotes have appeared makes it look like your post was written by me !! I would like to make it ckear I did not sat that the Royal Family in the UK is "not taken seriously" as I find the remark offensive and totally untrue. On the contrary, the Monarch still has a an important Constitutional role.
