:hi: girls been the gym again 2 days off now back friday woopp just took the dogs round the field that bloody wind nearly blew us off are feet haha 8dpo x x x
 
Hi Suz, how you doing today?

I had a great night with my mom and sister... LONG TIME COMING!
It was so nice, ordered pizza, the girls played with their cousins and my sister, and my mom and I played words with friends and it was a BLAST!
 
Sounds so fun, verna! Yesterday was my sister's birthday. Talking to her on the phone was nice... We rarely do that, as we both have 3 kids and it'shard to find the right moment. I cannot imagine the fun we'd have if we could be together! 2 more days... At least you have your mom and sister there for you! That's super sweet. Did u take therest of the week off?

Lou I slept like crap last night. Hopefully that means you slept well. :)

Jess do u feel like it's pnd/hormone related? Maybe she could test your hormone levels and see if anything is out of whack. I am def going to ask for that the next time I go to the dr. When I'm pregnant my sex drive is amazing. I want to know if I can take hormones like low dose testosterone to get that when I'm not pregnant. Hahhaha!

I'm reading an amazing book about alzheimers. Wow I'm pretty sure that will be me when I get older. I am so forgetful already! It's so crazy how a brain with alzheimers reacts to things. I can't imagine being lost a block from home. So terrifying.
 
Haha chell I am forgetful too! Omg I loved my sex drive while preggo! I felt so amorous and even kinky! Not so much now... Glad u chatted with yr sister- how old is she? Are you similar?

Verna why you never play me on words? What's your name on there? Mine is Casey waterjug! Glad you had fun with the family. :)
 
Evening girls :hi:

Jess- glad you got to see the doctor. I would only take the tablets if you really want to though :hugs: Did you get a chance to speak to Joe properly? X

Chell- no unfortunately I had a terrible night too! Ben's cold is in full force again and he's not sleeping more than half an hour at a time! :-(

Suz- how was the trade fair? Was it hell taking Sammuel or was he ok? X

Hi everyone else :hi:
 
Lou, last night I gave Lili some Calcold.... I researched it and its exactly the same as when it was sold for 3+ months. They've changed it to 6 years cos parents were using it to sedate their kids!! It definitely helped Lili breathe more easily.... Hope Ben gets better soon. :hugs:
 
I'm ok thanks Verna... haven't taken the pills today... haven't told Joe about it either. Feels like I'm admitting to being a failure... also gives him more ammunition for his argument not to have a 2nd baby....
 
aww poo on joe! he really would use that as ammunition? what a poo face!! jess I Am so sorry you are going through this. I feel like once lilli is up and running around and can talk you will be so distracted with that and work you won't have time to be sad!! what do you think, do you think just in time it will get better?

I haven't read back any further than Jess but hello everyone! Lou I think I read you had a nother bad night and I am sorry hun. It must be so dang hard. What do you and Ste say about it? I mean, you guys talk about how hard it is on you and what are your plans to deal with it (the neverending lack of sleep)?
 
Not a frigging clue Casey!! :-( :-(

Jess- I'm so sorry you feel you can't talk to Joe :hugs: We're all here :hugs:
 
Jess you're not a failure at all :hugs: I felt like that about taking anti-Ds but I did feel much better after taking them. You can't fail at something you can't control!

Did you talk to Joe any more about helping you out? Perhaps if he knew you'd been to the docs he might grasp how down you are and realise he needs to help out more!

London with sammuel was good. He was so good and everyone commented on his sling and leg warmers!

X x x
 
Which sling did you use Suz? Your new snazzy expensive one? How do you dress Sammuel to wear his leg warmers? Ben has two pairs but never wears them cos I don't know what to dress him in with them :shrug: Do you just take Sammuel out in his nappy with them on? X

Jess- did you say Joe was away this week too? X
 
Secret: I really like homemade pureed vegetables! Yummy! Dip my ricecakes and carrots in there with some hot sauce and yummy! I like pureed peas with pear and carrots with avocado so far. I even Like it plain with a big old spoon. Looks like I am taking to solids like a pro! There won't be any left for Jimmy!
 
Hahahhaah, Casey! Good job using a spoon!

My sis and I are pretty opposite. We don't really get along all that much bc she's a lot like my step mom. She's 31. Not blood related. She and her husband have a terrible relationship. Scream at each other. I can't handle beig around them for too long. We haven't seen each other for years bc we've alternated having babies and one of us always has a newborn... To difficultto travel the 15 hr drive to see each other.
 
It's funny how there is no guarantee your kids will be close as they get older. My Sis is 7 yrs younger and we r close cuz we sort if had to band together over the yrs.
 
On the other hand, my husband and his siblings are all tight. I have a decent relationship with my younger bro (8yrs younger) but my sister and I have never got along bc my step mom considered me the black sheep growing up. So I am pretty sure that's why we fell apart. She hated me bc her mom hated me.. Sad but true.
 
Jess - PND is any depression within the first year of giving birth.... strange that your doc said it only happens right afterwards but then acknowledged that something needed help too. Taking them isn't being a failure.. the guest speaker we had at the mother's group who is an expert on it said its good to compare PND/PPD to cancer... it is not something you can control, something you can just wish away etc... it is not 'weakness' to take your medication for the condition etc.
Not that I'm insisting you take the pills, just that there is nothing wrong with taking them, if they don't help or you don't like them, you can stop, but it might be just what you need.

Casey - lol.. is now the time that I admit that I LOVE babyfood? I've only really had the fruits and cereals, but yummmmmm they are good! I used to just buy the jars and eat them :haha:
Good for you though! maybe Jimmy will find the foods more exciting if you're eating them!

I ordered some cloth diapers!! :) Daycare lady has NO trouble with them. In fact, before I could bring it up, she mentioned she keeps spare diapers in case of emergencies with kids and mentioned they were cloth ones! :) I still want to make sure we have a good routine with them, find the right brands etc before I send them off to him.
Also found an adorable brand, VERY affordable, ordered one to try out.. if it rocks then I can get 8 of them plus extra stuff (inserts, detergent etc) for $100. Cute prints too.. the one I ordered looks like blue jeans :D

Poor Daniel though, he was super fussy today, running a low-grade fever still from his shots yesterday. Daycare called and I told her to give him some tylenol... he basically would scream hysterically if she tried to put him down at all, though going for a walk ended up calming him down too. I just felt so bad for him that he might have needed me for comfort but I wasn't there for him (yet I was also ever so slightly relieved that I didn't have to deal with him being super fussy :haha:).
He didn't finish any of his bottles, then when I nursed him before bed, I gave him some tylenol when I switched sides, and he REFUSED to take my other side :dohh: he HATES the medicine, and we totally laugh at his faces, but its like he stopped trusting that I would only put yummy milk in his mouth and wouldn't try the boob. I'm guessing I'll be woken up tonight to feed him again, lol.
 
oh yes, and me and my brother were only 3 years apart.. never were close but that is a very complicated situation (even before he got sick)
