Hope you didn't tell her mother that? Could have proved to be detrimental to your future parenting abilitiesPondrew said:True. We have rarely had to take our daughter to the vet.

Some may know that our daughter was a twin. Her twin brother died as a very young baby due to a major cock up at the hospital during their birth. So our daughter (Emily) has been our world for the last eighteen years.
