Hi girls. Lisa I don't know what to say. That drives me batty as well . It's yr baby and they do need to get hobbies other than daniel. 2 days is plenty. My advice would be to Try to ignore her. I mean, just let her and mil's neediness pass you on by and just keep doing yr thing. Stand strong and just say no to more visits. Even if u get a carseat gift try not to worry that It means anything other than a nice gift. That's all it is- no strings. Act like there are no strings and there won't be. Also have dh interface with them a little more so u don't have to and tell dh your concerns so he knows that he needs to protect u from the mental anguish by stepping between u and them . Its his job to talk to his own family and put his foot down.

afternoon all.
Lou, poor ben. Hope the little man is ok.
V good luck at the scan
Chell great to have to back hun.
Lisa, i dont know how you put up with them. I live on the same street as my MIL at she never ever comes here to see shae, she always expects me to get everything ready (which is a lot) and go to see her.
Well went MW today and as im still a day early she wont do the sweep. She explained the reasons why and i can see her point even though im gutted. She told me to go to the walk in centre on Friday and they will do one then for me and i have another at the hospital on the 10th but im hoping it doesnt come to that.
I was up every hour last night with major pain in my back and BH
Really had enough now but the end is near.

Chloe will be here soon, no matter what you do or don't do. 
From what I understand, sweeps don't do much unless you are pretty ready to go into labor anyway.
Casey - I already do ignore them and DH handles 80% of the interaction with them. They pull a lot more of this crap with him than they do with me, I only become aware of it when they are pushing so hard that some of it trickles over to me. There are always strings with them and even if we don't succumb to the pressure from them, we have to hear about it... part of the major day of drama back when Daniel was only a few days old that left me sobbing and that I still harbor resentment over was because my inlaws felt that by bringing us food, they were entitled to stay and hang out, not just a quick 5 minute visit. The result was that we refused ALL other offers of help from them even though we really needed it. Sometimes its just not worth it.
I asked MIL to buy the rug for Daniel's room, but she wants to buy him that stupid toy that he can't even use until he's 18 months that I don't even want him to have for space and safety concerns... which I've told her. She would probably find a carseat equally boring to buy, but would do it in the hopes/expectation that she would get to use it in her car sometimes, then would have her feelings hurt when we still said no, then SIL would tell off my DH etc.

Well they need to get lives and I am so glad u don't have to deal with them more than 20%! Be thankful. And try to totally clear them away from yr mind. Gifts and carseats, try not to stress over that I- it's not for awhile and is wasting your emotional capacity and brain space to worry about your dumb inlaws. I should take my own advice.

hehe, i will do my best! And usually I do forget about the mostly between the days when they have him.
But with this broken wrist stuff they've gotten intrusive into the other days of the week, you know? Heck, my MIL apparently thought I called her at 7pm last night and called me back to tell me not to come over if thats why I was calling (does she not get that Daniel goes to bed early? Why would we bring him over that late?)... then tells me that its not a good idea to come over because she's 'been in the hospital the past few days'. Um... NO YOU HAVENT!!! You had a orthopedic evaluation on Monday, had your cast put on on Tuesday, and had another appointment because of your reaction to the pain meds... that is not the same as being in the hospital for 2 days!!!!
Part of me is irritated at her blowing things out of proportion, but then I also worry that its a sign of the hallucinations that my SIL mentioned... so I feel bad for being irritated

Hey girls!
On the way back from my scan! All was perfect, we even swathe heartbeat!!! Only bean! Phew!!! One of my ovary seemed a bit polycystic and even the ultrasound lady said I was really badly constipated, she show me all the poop, it's so compacted it was shining like bones do under an ultrasound!! (slightly less emotional than the bean!! Hahaha)
So all is well, I am just full of shit
)
OH has a massive grin on his face

PMSL!!!
So happy it was a good scan!
Erm yes it already takes loads of time so I think it will! The plan is that when it's successful Danny can quit work and help with the website and sammuel. It's going well so far, still got so much to put on it though!

evening all.
V, you hve cracked me up So glad your scan went well and there is only one beany baby. Are you further along than you thought.
Well usual shitty aches and pains here. I was in tears earlier for about 1/2 hour due to the pains and just feeling really fed up. Im hating every minute of th end of this pregnancy and i feel so guilty for it cause i know im so lucky to be bless with another baby but i cant help feeling the way i do.
I just want her out now. I cant wait to met her but even more than that i just cant wait to be out of pain and have my body back to myself.
Sorry for the mini rant
xx

Casey I'll always have time for you
Laura I'm sorry you're having a rough time. Don't feel guilty, it's hard at the end!
