Relax...eat a banana....

:D :D :D

 

Also:

Cramp and growing pains: If the children get growing pains or you suffer from cramp, the potassium in the Banana helps this - as I remembered at 3 this morning whilst struggling with MEGA cramp in the calf muscles in BOTH legs!!!!

 

Now that's a bit of info I didn't know, HB. Thank you!

 

In my experience, if you have a pash for bananas while you're pregnant - it's a boy!!!!! :D :D

 

In my experience, if you have a pash for bananas before your pregnant, you soon are :D

 

:D :D :D :D
You've got 2 boys , am I right, BM!!! :D :D

 

2 boys :D

 

And the Bananas will rule the world!!!!! mwah mwah mwah :D :D :D :D

 

You do need some girls too, though, or the ruling of the world will be of limited duration.... (says she pedantically...)

 

Well I've got 2 girls, perhaps they could all get together and we could have windy bananas!!! :D :D

 

A very slippery species, WOO! :D

 

Thanks BM for that useful info on bananas, I never knew half that stuff. I'm not that fussy on them but will eat them now, trouble is i have IBS and fruit can start it off, and i do love fruit and know it's good for you.
