[mac1979]

I had my Dr Who themed baby shower today!! Tardis cake, fish fingers and custard, star shaped cookies and adipose babies were the decorations. Instead of a game everybody made a scrapbook page and on it I m going to put a picture of the person who made the page holding Raptor.

I also got 7 solid hours of sleep last night, I felt like a new woman.

 

[ZooMa]

She's the real ugly person, not you!

^^this

 

[mac1979]

DF- tell her to blow it our her you-know-what. I was bullied my whole life about my looks by my family and classmates and I know how much it hurts to hear. It is best to try to learn to let it slide off your back and learn that anybody to would something bad to another is a truly ugly person and there is something inside them that makes them want to feel superior.

 

[pola17]

Mac: sorry to know you were bullied! I was a victim as well!
But now we all know bullies are likes this, because of their insecurities... Their lives are so empty, that only letting down other people makes them feel better. These people are poison, and inside they're full of more fears and insecurities than us.

 

[Dragonfly]

DF: nothing to say, but . Also, overweight does not equate to bad looking! True, not everyone can be a cover girl, weight aside, but everyone also has a beauty to them and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Don't get me started on the media and societal expectations of beauty... it's a pet peeve of mine. (In addition to the phrase "pet peeve," which is really annoying.) *Everything* that is published out there is photoshopped up the wazoo, so nobody knows what a real human looks like anymore!

Its not just the over weight I do not have a nice face. And I have a bump on my nose from a break and self esteem issues all my life. Especially when I am down it effects me so just after having a baby looking like a train wreak even more was the last thing I wanted to hear. And I cant have a fight with my other halfs mum he loves her she has a dodgy pace maker and isnt well and I aint going to have a fight with her. Be different if it was my own mum who I do not take it off. And even my mum wouldnt have said that comment. Anyway new day moving on.

Williams first day at school today.I dont know how he will get along. If there is a shortage of diggers then he dosnt like that as thats all he wants to know if there are diggers there. Here are some pics, and here is his bag we had printed for him as he dosnt do mainstream lol

Pola, Mac, Zooma I so agree people who say means things to hurt others are ugly inside
Zooma so agree on pictures these days! ever see some of the before and after shots shocking really

DF I have weight issues as well and I have serious issues about my tummy (the joys of being small, carrying big babies and a c section) nothing worse than some one making you feel bad when your feeling low, but you know we do have to remind our selfs it is only a few weeks after giving birth and it took more than 9 months to grow our babies so I expect it will take nearly as long to get back some what in to shape! if you do not want to fight with your MIL tell her camly that, what she said was hurtful and leave the room then go back in with your OH may be or I am sure you will figure a way to deal with her!!
William is so handsome looking super cute on his first day of school and I love his bag


not as good a night last night!! Ryan woke 3.30am with a very blocked nose so it took till 5am for him to settle again took me a bit longer to fall asleep so feeling tired today!!

DH got his letter for the snip this morning on the 20th of this month!! I am ok with not having any more children, yet I still feel awful about it guess it is the end of an era so to speak! god I am so scared I will get clucky again!! really hope I do not

 

[Scottish]

DF- OMG what a topper she sounds! i knwo its hard but dont take on board her comments! raise your head high, big hugs

yay for sleep mac and celtic

 

[Scottish]

[JenzyKY]

DF, he is too cute!! I love his school uniform and bag.

Again it takes me forever to post...having no internet at home and a newborn which I know you all understand. I got a grand total of 15 minutes of sleep last night. Roman just wouldnt sleep unless he was on my chest and I was worried about falling asleep that way My oh took him so I could nap today but that meant more formula (he drained me throughout the night so had a bottle of formula before I laid down). I'm worried that I'm going to fail at breastfeeding. And I cant tell if I have ppd or if I'm feeling the way I do because of hormones and sleep deprivation

DF you can't be that ugly, someones had sex with you at least 3 times Seriously though, try your best to ignore her.. I don't understand how people can be so mean to new mums!?
How much you missing William? It's so hard at 1st!

Sooz that pic you shared is so my life! Although last 2 nights Melody has slept 10pm - 3am!!

Baby hopes you have to pop today or you'll beat my record of most overdue on this thread!

What a great theme for your baby shower Mac, I live in the city where its filmed, so we have lots of fans come here. My parents live opposite the exhibition place.

Celtic, its sad looking at your baby knowing they're your last isn't it?

Lol xx

he is beautiful

I would say lack of sleep and hormones making you feel crappy!!

can you feed lying down, I understand about the sleeping on your chest Ryan has done the same and I prop my self up with pillows and use my nursing pillow because I passed out holding him one night DH found me asleep sitting up Ryan was safe though!! we do co sleep so are very careful and follow the rules but I ended up with a creak in my neck ouch!

 

[Caitrin]

Thank you!

I can sometimes, my boobs can make it difficult though...they're too big to nurse without using both hands most of the time. He seems to do best with the clutch hold. I think part of the problem is my oh is such a light sleeper I have to jump up and leave tge room to nurse wnd make sure he's really asleep before I go back to bed myself. He watches the kids during the day so i try to make sure at least one of us is getting semi good sleep.

I really need to write down the birth story before I forget it...I cant believe it's already been almost 3 weeks! All the days seem to blur together. Ahh well I'm in love with my little man andhe really is a sweet boy

 

[Scottish]

caitrin hes gorgeous and so are you once hes settles into a routine it will get much easier takes time and patience though and does feel like it will never end at the moment but it will xxx

babyhopes yup keep positive saving the best for last xxx

i have added 1month bf thing to my sig as i see everyone with them and wanted one to hehe i am also proud of still bf even through the problems we have, it is getting slowly better

 

[HHenderson]

Caitrin- I breastfeed in bed. Co-sleeper here I lay on my side and baby lays on her back or her side and feeds that way. I even fall asleep as well as soon as she spits it out I wake up right away, maybe because my nipple gets real cold? Lol Then I burp her and put her back down and she falls asleep. I also have monster boobs. So this way is the easiest for us. It also helps because my flow is so fast it doesnt choke her as much. hope you get some sleep soon. Roman is beautiful!

 

[Barhanita]

Df - William is very handsome

Caitrin, it has to be the sleep deprivation. No psychiatrist would diagnose PPD officially until you rule out the sleep deprivation. BTW, your boy looks just perfect.

After today if you dont go at some point you will have beaten me as I was 11 days with Myles although in past preg I was 13 days but that dosnt count on this thread I know it must be torture seeing every ones baby pics too when you just want to have your baby to show off.

I am feeling low today. None of my friends have spoken to me in a while and seem disinterested. I feel like when poelpe get to know me they dont want to know me.

I bed share and breastfeed too and have big boobs so I have to hold a bit back so he dosnt suffocate. not to bad in bed as I can get a better position but sitting is awkward.
