It won't be you Jess- they ban certain websites x

Sorry I'm not posting much girls- I'm fucking exhausted!! :-( Ben is now not sleeping in the evenings or at night :-( Up every half an hour until 3am last night- then refused to go back to sleep after that! It's so depressing :cry:
 
:( lou. I don't know how you're managing :hugs: wish there was something we could do to help x x x
 
Suz! I am so sorry about your fil! How stressful and hectic and poor guy! So glad it wasn't Sammuels.

Lou god hun what the hell is Ben up to? I mean I don't get it! Everyone needs to sleep at some point and if you go long enough u pass out! I am so sorry! Wish there was a trick that worked but u tried everything! Please Ben please go to sleep!
 
How do I get the bnb to be the mobile version? I like that size better.

Jess that's stupid about the xxxx. Whatever!

Laura happy bday to shae! So cool that they are exactly almost one yr apart(will be).

My dad got here today visiting from az. We just got back from Hawaii and now my dad and then the brother of dh after that staying here. It's a bit much for me but since it's happening all at once I don't have time for anxiety attacks! How handy.

Hi Lisa! Is Daniel better?
 
Yeah Daniel is fine.

I'm feelling really low tonight. I think I'm bummed about our financial situation and having a horribly crappy dinner (frozen burritos) because we don't have time to cook, shop for food, and no money to order in food. Just pouting.. sick of this stupid cough too.
 
Aww hugs Lisa. Get some rest and get better! Being sick can bring you extra down. Is fruit or veggies too spendy? May help you feel better If you could eat an orange or carrots and dip or something to go with the crappy burrito! Or apple wedges? Got some nice vitamins in there for u. It makes me worry that you only are able to afford a microwave burrito for dinner!
 
Its not that we can't afford to buy other meals, its just what we have in the house. Last night we had spaghetti. We have so much food in the house but just go buy more and thats not good. We eat out too much still (once or twice a week).
It was a crappy month financially at the end of Sept.. we dipped too much into our savings.
DH had $700 in unexpected car repairs, that was AFTER I bought our cloth stash, then we went shopping and splurged a little. Then Christmas is coming up so we won't be able to catch up etc.
We suck with money :(
 
we have some frozen veggies and even some fresh broccoli, but I hate cooking it up just for me to eat, and DH won't really eat it. I keep getting upset with him for not eating better.. I want to but its hard/impossible to do it alone.
 
Yeah I know it's hard but broccoli doesn't take too long to cook and it stays good a couple days! With a little lemon and butter... Yummy! Or just salt! I love broccoli. But I too find it annoying to use the stovetop so I just make spinach salads everyday with chopped veg and cheese and nuts but actually that takes time too. What about those bagged salads just dump em in a bowl and serve? The non iceberg ones. Sorry money is tight. Maybe you can forgo the Xmas presents - Daniel won't know!
 
Sorry to be a nag about the veggies. Probably pretty annoying to hear me.
 
is not Daniel that is going to break the bank, its family
The broccoli is in one of those microwave steam bags, and it IS yummy, I'm just feeling low in general and lazy and like stuff is pointless, you know?
 
lol, not annoying. If I knew they'd make me feel better, I'd cook some up, but its not going to solve how I feel right now.
 
Had a crazy dream last night....
I dreamt I was going to go through IUI or IVF with my friend (the one who passed away a few years ago). We were going to see my fertility doctor (who was actually D's pediatrician). On the way there I bumped into my OB/GYN and tried to get her to write a new, higher prescription for my anti-depressants. She made a very clever comment about being asked to do work on her free time... I can't remember what the comment was though, but I was VERY impressed with how tactful/clever it was in my dream.
Anyway, I'm seeing the fertility doctor, and one of my tests showed something was wrong and I was going to need surgery but he showed me some amazing stretches I could do instead of surgery.

I just remember being so weirded out about going through IUI with my friend.
 
Ha that's weird lisa! So everyone is so busy now with life it's super quiet on here. Is this coming to an end? Our club?
 
Aww I hope not Casey! :-( We do seem to have phases on here! It goes quiet for a bit then all of a sudden we gets pages and pages in one day!

I'm being a bit slack cos I spend half my day trying to get Ben to nap! :-( I spend most of time dealing with his sleep-fighting habit! :dohh: I think Suz is busy with her website and Jess is busier now she's gone back to work! Hopefully it will pick up again soon! :shrug:
 
Lol, I'm chattier now that I'm back at work.
BUT I must admit that I'm neglecting my work... I just can't seem to stay off the internet and buckle down' :(
 
It is quiet! But I agree we'll have a little lull then chat for 3 pages in one night!

Lisa I hope you're feeling better :hugs:

Nappies: I use 3 types at night, just cos I tried lots of things and never got more than one of each!

1. Tweedlebum fitted, no idea if you can get these there, but it's basically a fitted nappy, the whole thing is absorbent. https://www.babybumboutique.co.uk/e.../"Nappies by Brand"/Tweedlebee_and_Tweedlebum
It has no waterproof layer, so over the top I put a pumpkin pants fleece soaker. Search pumpkin pants on etsy, she is in America I'm sure. The fleece has no PUL layer, but it repels the water so it doesn't leak out. If the nappy gets too full, the pee will kind of evaporate rather than a full on leak.

2. I use a flip outer with a big insert and a folded MF at the front as he tummy sleeps a lot. I'm not sure this would work on a smaller baby though as the insert is quite big, although I've been doing it a while! This is the insert I use, it's huge an takes a while to dry, but is brilliant https://littlepants.co.uk/index.php...id=373&zenid=bf1f5bce67295547ca62683c17fd0235

3. Pocket nappy with it's own long folded insert, plus 3 bamboo boosters. This is just a pocket I didn't like for the day, but works great at night. It has it's own long insert Folded in half, then I put 2 bamboo boosters in the pocket, and one fleece topped booster on top. I think the key with a pocket is don't overstuff the pocket, lay some on top too.

Of those the most leak proof is the fitted + fleece. None of mine ever leak, and S feeds in the night and pees a LOT! but since you can't get the exact same ones I have, the first is most likely to work for any baby of any size...

Hth x x x
 
I'm not sure I'm allowed to buy anymore diapers :(
I did find some fabulous bamboo inserts though... is bamboo more absorbant than MF? Is it slower at absorbing? How does it compare to hemp?
