This MTHFR thing

Did a spot of reading just now and if my homocysteine levels are raised, due to this MTHFR mutation, it would explain alot of things such as why I'm so exhausted, why I have no energy, why I feel down, why I get headaches, etc. Not just during pregnancy but during 'normal life' too. I really need to quiz my Doctor a little more about this when I see him next.

Meanwhile, Gareth is off to California for the night as he has a 9am meeting there tomorrow and I am home with the boys - which means not only driving Dylan to school in the morning but doing the inevitable 5am nappy change / bed linen change / bottle of milk for Harry that has become something of a routine. What does one do when a toddlers nappy leaks *every night* due to high levels of wee?! I'm wondering about 'Huggies Overnight' nappies......never used them before. Ah well, tomorrow I'm going to be even more exhausted than usual - joy!

I have had the same problem with Xander - he is now 6.5 and still in nappies - i know, before you all shout at me that he is about 2.5 years too old (even though its 'normal' up to the age of 6).... its a problem that the boys have in my family - their brains are just not ready till they are older - my brother was 14 and still wetting the bed!
Anyhooo... i found that buying the next size up was the only way thru it. The Huggies Pull ups are rubbish and very leaky, and the best are the Easy Up pants.
