The Dr suggested a good dose of Rob......er.............i mean Fluoxetine.

I only took my 1st 1 today but just talking things over with the Dr has helped a lot. He thinks it's like a delayed reaction to bein diagnosed (which was only 2 months ago) and it has been building up and building up without me realising and this week it just all come out. I suppose when you're diagnosed, you need time to adjust and take in everything but i just carried on as normal thinking i was ok but somewhere in my mind i wasn't and it just built up.

Hi Trish, yes some of the babies do breathe. They have a mechanism inside which makes them breathe. Can you believe they start off as normal dolls then people paint them up! My doll is cuddly just like a baby and i think most of them are like that. The makers weigh their limbs and head down. The head flops back just like a real baby. My one still has a soft, cotton covered body but some do have what they call a tummy plate which they paint up to look like real skin. Some even have little girl or little boy 'bits'! There is a gorgeous one on ebay at the moment, i will PM you the link so you can have a look. I think it's the best one i've seen yet but it's very expensive.

The knitting and crochet i sell on ebay. I only do it as a hobby, not exactly to make money. As long as i cover cost of yarn, buttons etc i'm happy.

I got married 23/06/07 and i have a step son and step daughter by Tony. The both live with their mother. Tony was in a very unhappy marriage but he is an absolute diamond. I've been with him 7years this Dec and we have spent virtually every minute of those 7yrs together. We met at work. I have a fantastic relationship with my step son who is 16 but the girl hasn't wanted anything to do with her Dad since he left her Mum, she is 18. Althought Tony has tried to explain things to her, she blames him for the breakup whereas the boy just accepts that he now has 2 families and is better off

Hi Carol

That baby, who looks new born, well you can see it really looks as if it is only minutes or a couple of hours old.

They are done fantastically, the baby has got that bluish looks new borns have. It's really well done.

I was feeling very broody a while ago, if I had known about them, I could have had one of those.

It's times like this, I wish I had a grand daughter, it would give me an excuse to buy one or two.

I wonder what would happen if you dressed one up and went out with it, what reaction you would get.

What are they like to hold Carol - hard or softish?
What do you do with them, keep them or dress them in a few outfits and sell them. Do you get them in packets of stuff that you bake until eg: half hour, so. Have you ever tried to make one yourself?
What are they like to touch, cold, or does the material they are made of, is warm to touch?

robertls · 31. Oct 2009, 03:44

Wow Carol.................another crazy party night..... :roll: :roll:

I wonder what you'll find this morning.......

I still got trousers on..................Oh.... :idea:

....These aren't mine.. :shock:

Label says 'Ladies size 16'...........Oh dear.... :oops: :oops:

chris7 · 31. Oct 2009, 05:57

Hi all

Not sure I should peek in this bit?

What has been going on in here :?:
Sounds like it was a good party, so sorry to have missed it.

Do hope you are all recovering from your wild nights.

Mine just feels like a new born baby to hold, you have to support the head just like with a baby and they are so poseable. They just seem to snuggle into you arms when you hold them. When i got mine (off ebay) it was beautifully packed. She came with a real baby blanket, a small toy,a real babies spare nappy and even a congratulations it's a girl greetings card signed by the artist. I really only got 1 to 'model' the baby clothes and blankets i make and sell on ebay so most of the time i keep her packed up to keep her clean, i do love dressing her though. I think some people must display them though since i have seen some sellers 'reducing their collection'. I would never sell mine unless i seriously needed the money. I paid £200. I couldn't make 1 myself, i think you have to be a very talented artist to paint and get skin tones like that! I wish i could make them though! I will add some more photos of mine to my profile (just click on the link on my profile)

carol101 · 31. Oct 2009, 08:08

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Everyone looking forward to the halloween party tonight?

Rehab don't you think it's just a bit early to be wearing your mask?

What's that............?

You're..........not.........wearing.........one? :oops:

Carol X

joanlawson · 31. Oct 2009, 08:29

Hi Carol

I just got round to looking at your photos. You looked lovely on your wedding day, and your knitting is beautiful. You are very skilled at it. Those dolls are rather scarily life-like, aren't they? I think there was a TV programme about women who collect them and treat them like real babies ( not suggesting you do ) It's all a bit sad, isn't it?

Looking forward to the party tonight. I hope Rob recovers in time, and also finds the right trousers :!: :oops:

Joan

carol101 · 31. Oct 2009, 09:27

Hi Joan. I'm just uploading some more photo's of my 'baby' for Trish. There will be another link on my profile so do feel free to have a look.

I also saw that program with the women treating them as real babies. I do love them (not in a motherly way!) but the only reason i bought one was to 'model' my knitting and crochet as i sell on ebay and i think having the doll in the photo makes all the difference. Other than her modelling career, she just suffocates in her box

And as for Rob.......well they certainly are not my trousers, i can't remember the last time i could fit into a size 16!

Love Carol XXX

Hi Carol
Is that Prozac?Be careful as they suppress your appetite big time.I had them after my divorce.Started low anyway(anyone divorced will understand) and soon was 6.6 so I gave them up quick!Please keep an eye as you mustnt lose too much too soon and I think it could have contributed to my arthritis(although no one in the medical profession has suggested this).
Best wishes Elizabeth.

carol101 · 31. Oct 2009, 10:39

Hi Elizabeth, no they're not prozac but i should imagine the same sort of thing. I was told by pharmacist that they will probably cause nausea for the 1st 3 days but i've taken 2 and no side effects yet. I will keep an eye on my weight though, thank you. I do need to loose weight but properly.

I can match pills with you any time :!: I'm working on a rainbow, all I have to find is the indigo colour.............

Love n' hugs

Don't bother with the indigo ones, Annie - they taste foul. Similar to the blue smarties that they had to withdraw. My two-tone brown happy pills are pretty good though!

carol101 · 31. Oct 2009, 11:25

My happy pills are a pale greeny colour one end and peach the other end.

Don't know who's been dipping them in the paint pot

Off to have a shower and make myself beautiful for the halloween party

ROB STOP SPYING ON ME IN THE SHOWER!!! I KNOW YOU'RE THERE!!!

vonski · 31. Oct 2009, 13:11

Hi Elizabeth and Carol

Pretty sure fluoxetine is generic prozac, I could not take them but was OK with the proper prozac :roll: Dr. would not give me proper ones now though, cost of course :x

Love
