The summer holidays are nearly here and I cannot wait. You may be thinking – but I’ve been off all year anyway but I am really looking forward to being at home with my little family. Amongst the many hospital appointments and consultants we are still to see I am now making plans for the future with Erin. Life in spica cast was monumentally challenging and I am hopeful now that we may have beaten DDH and she can finally pick up on being a ‘typical’ toddler. This will involve potty training some time soon, I would ideally like to have sorted this before I head back to school in September but Erin seems to have other ideas and no me yesterday ‘No Way’!! She is a stubborn little monkey for which I am glad as it was this determination that got her through DDH and gives her the drive to get up on her two shaky legs and push herself to the limit.
I am not going to push it for the next month or so. She needs a break from hassle and really needs to learn to walk before we try crossing that stage. However when we do start I am going to need reminding how to do it – I may have done it twice already but that was six years ago! I shall be checking out Bounty as they were my saviour once before!
I have always found internet forums a great source of information and tips. They are the first place I go for advice. Now when friends are pregnant now I suggest following pregnancy week by week as it is a great way to see how everything is progressing.
So roll on the holidays when I have my sanity stretched, a messy house full of noisy children, no food in cupboard as they have ransacked it and no money in my purse because they have spent it!!
