I'm Currently Feeling: | I don't think I have any except this forum.
I have to say I'm in a way pleased that I've been having problems with my work and haven't worked since November because I get easily tired & distracted and I'd rather be at home when I feel rough. Also it's helped OH bond with baby because we spend so much time together.
I use bio oil but it's not worked. |
