Morning ladies.

Thank you all for your support. I'm sure a lot of what I think Joe's responses will be is all in my head, but it's enough for me to chicken out of talking to him. I feel that it was a little too easy for my dr... I spent 5 mins in there and she mentioned anti ds half way through that. I have a whole world of physical symptoms too and she kinda ignored those. I'm so hot all the time and get very shaky if I'm hungry or have just exerted myself. I'm also getting stinking headaches on am almost daily basis. I know that they're all possibly physical manifestations of my stres and low mood, but it just seemed a bit easy... Also the prospect of taking them for a year minimum just freaked me out... Don't know what I was expecting... Anyway I think I'll go for a second opinion and talk to my mum and take it from there. Joe goes away tomorrow for 5 days.

Casey, poor jimmy will starve! on the other hand he might be more interested in food if he sees you eating it!! I made some of the BLW food the other day and whilst it was cooling down Joe kept coming in to the kitchen, picking on of them up, sprinkling salt on it and eating it!! Glad he likes them... Lili still needs convincing on the chickpea burgers... Suz, did your turn out quite dry?

Lou, I put Lili in her leg warmers for nudey rudey time... Does ben like to be nappyf free?

I'm close to all my siblings. I have a whole sister then the other 4 are halts. The triplets are only 12 but we are still close. My mum and her brothers barely talk at all and one of them we've intentionally stopped talking to over money issues!! They all went to boarding school from a young age though so didn't spend much time together... I wonder if That's why they're not so close.

Right off to work... Yawn!

Lou S wears his with a nappy, or shorts or those little short baby grows. He had them on today and I got him home and Danny is in a right grump ans took them of him cos he doesn't like them!!! what a dickwad!!! (I think we should bring back old insults)

Jess I don't get the whole year thing?! Why a year?! Def get a 2nd opinion. And don't forget we're here
I get daily headaches at the moment too

Lou are you interested in trying some night nappies? I may be ordering some from Australia for a few people to save on postage, shall I post a link? And you Jess, but think you may be sorted on nappies...

X x x

 

[SBB]

Cassy I never answered your Q about purees, I honestly don't know but I'd prob not leave it longer than 24 hours...

And Jess no the chickpea burger things aren't dry at all... How did you make them?

[lisaf]

Its possible she said a year to prevent you from trying for 2 weeks and saying 'this isn't working' when it takes 3 weeks to even kick in. And since PND can happen any time within the first year, she may be used to recommending a year's use just to cover that since she said it usually happens right after birth. You really are NOT going to be forced to take them for a whole year.
Most require you to wean off of them slowly, and make sure you research/ask about any withdrawl side effects.... I went through horrible withdrawls on my last pills (effexor... got this lovely sensation that is best described as 'brain zaps' where you feel like someone just gave your brain a mild shock at times.. .lasted for a few months. The one I'm on now does NOT have that side effect when weaning off).

As for it being a reason not to have a 2nd child.. having it the first time DOES pre-dispose you to getting it with the next child, but its not a guarantee. And if it did happen again, you'd be quicker to recognize it and get it addressed, right?


Girls, I want your opinion... I have my ultrasound scheduled next week. Thing is, the bleeding seems to have finally stopped! It got really heavy after my appt on Aug 29th, lasted for about a week that way, then seems to have finally stopped (granted, its been stopped now for 5-7 days which is only slightly longer than my last break/respite from bleeding). I don't know that i need the ultrasound anymore. Don't want to be stupid and cancel then have the bleeding come back, but don't want to waste my time etc if its not needed.

 

[kcw81]

I would Cancel it lisa and see if you have symptoms come back then go back in for the U/S. Of course it is up to you and you can't sue me if there is something actually wrong that needs to be addressed! ha. I bet you are fine though.

Jess try another doc. Can you just go to a therapist who wants to sit with you for an hour a week and talk things through and possibly not prescribe meds but at least help you work through the problems and get them out on the table so you feel better? I know you let us know how you are feeling but do you have other people in your life who can sit and hear you out and give the relief of being able to talk? IT doesn't sound like Joe would be able to provide that. I am just suggesting that maybe talking about it more might help relieve stress without immediately taking a drug. Of course it sounds like you have a lot of friends and family so you probably are able to get some informal counseling from them. What do you think?

Suz glad you had fun at the trade show the other day and glad you are active on bnb still. it is quiet without you.

Chell your step mom sounds like a real butthole treating you like that.

Vernas surgery is tomorrow. Hope everything goes okay.

 

[babyloulou]

Suz- yes I'd definitely be interested Post the link...

Lisa- I would go anyway- otherwise it might always be in the back of your mind causing you worry xx

Jess- I agree with Casey. Can you talk to your Mum well? X

 

[lisaf]

I guess I'll go since I don't think I'll really regret going. Just feel a bit stupid that I was a week away from having it seemingly end when I saw my doctor about it, lol.

 

[Smile4me]

Thanks Casey hun, I've had flutters all day, actually for three days. I know its anxiety..

HUGS Jess!!!!!!

Good afternoon Suz, Lou, Ellen, Lisa, Chel and everyone else

 

[babyloulou]

Good luck Verna! I hope it goes really quickly and you're home before you know it!! Just think of it as one step closer to your BFP!! Once it's over you can get back to concentrating on that xx

 

[kcw81]

Verna good luck and I hope it goes well! Will u be able to log on layer tomorrow and let us know yr ok??

 

[lisaf]

good luck Verna!

 

[SBB]

Good luck verna will be thinking Of you

Lisa I'd prob cancel out of laziness!

Lou I'll post the links in a bit x x x

 

[lisaf]

lol, yeah I want to cancel but I'll just go an do it anyway... SIGH

Speaking of laziness, I am soooo freaking tired that I kind of dozed off while pumping at work. I'm supposed to go to the gym in a half hour or so... I'm going to drag myself there anyway since I missed monday.

Oh, and I forgot my bottles at home, so I got creative and pumped into ziplock bags, lol! It went rather well except that I dropped one bag on the floor. Luckily it landed in a way that did not spill my milk all over.. sheesh! I knew I'd forget the bottles one day
(I kind of want to go pump again just so I can take a nap, how sad is that?)

 

[SBB]

Lou here you go

https://www.designerbums.com.au/ind...mart&page=shop.browse&category_id=26&Itemid=1 you'd just need one of these, you just air it and don't wash it...

This goes under. There's no waterproof layer!! It does work though I promise, I use it every night (not this brand)

X x x

 

[SBB]

Lisa go pump/nap!!! 

 

[lisaf]

lol, I don't need to pump for another 2 hours, besides maybe I should go to the gym early to get it over with.

 

[Peach Blossom]

Thanks for all your support. I'll talk try and get to see another dr next week and get a referral to counselling.

Verna, good luck lovely. I'm sure you'll be fine

Suz, I'm gonna check out those nappies. Sound interesting! I use a natural baby sposie at night normally.
