pain i can handle but pain for no reason really f@*ks me off

and to top it all off, my bloody baby monitors have packed in so now i need to buy new ones for chloe. Its like the ones i have, have got a short fuse and keep cutting out but the lights still work. I havent got an awful lot of money to replace them so can anyone suggest some reasonably priced ones?

[SBB]

Have you taken the plug off and checked the wires and Fuse Laura?

Can't really suggest anything, we went for a video monitor

Oh sammuel learned to climb! Out of his cot attached to our bed, and up onto the sofa

Also, my friend is getting married in March, and has a 'no children policy'

What am I supposed to do with sammuel. I am not leaving him over night and I'll still be breastfeeding. Danny says we're not going. We're a family it's all or nothing!

[lisaf]

Ugh, if you don't want children at your wedding, then hire a sitter for the kids of your guests... especially if they are coming from far away! Rude! IMO
I think kids are a great addition to a wedding, they are the comic relief

 

[lisaf]

though its possible she doesn't want the cost of paying for a plate of food for a kid since I don't recall my caterer giving me a discount for kids.

 

[SBB]

But they wouldn't have to pay for a baby! Her reason is that there are 25+ kids. At the end of the email she says about how she hopes we can let our hair down and have a good drink. Well as I'm not 21 anymore I don't really like getting drunk! I think she wants everyone to have a great party, but if we do go we'll drive back anyway as I'm not leaving S overnight. So no partying from me!

[SBB]

Ps her parents are STINKING RICH!!! she is tight as anything with money, but I know she won't be paying.. Her parents pay for everything!

[kcw81]

Well you probably will be mostly solids by then right suz so u could go but it's just sort of rude to exclude kids. So don't go in protest. Unless it's a best friend? Oh then u would be in it!

 

[lisaf]

I say don't go... its cheaper just to send a gift anyway, lol ... send her a gift for a baby though 'for the future' just to be mean

 

[lisaf]

ooh, that reminds me... my friend had a bridal shower... one of her friends who had a few babies and knew she wanted to start trying for a baby once she got married gave her baby stuff at the bridal shower. The LOOK on her inlaws faces though :Rofl: they had to be reassured that she wasn't actually pregnant yet!

 

[SBB]

Haha!

Lisa she won't get a present if I'm not going

Casey that's the thing, I just don't know what his feeding habits will be. It's not that long away, he'll only be 14 months so I imagine he'll still be BF quite a lot.

X x x

 

[lisaf]

Send a crappy/weird present if you don't go! It's a much more noticeable statement . I remember reading a 'weirdest wedding gift you got' thing online once, the weird gifts stuck out he most! Or the people who were weirdly cheap like only buying the salt shaker in a set and not the pepper shaker when they were only $5 each

 

[Onelildream]

Ahh Suz! That sucks! I freakin haaaate that! My cousin did that to me last week "birthday party, Dutch, no kids" I'm happy to get a sitter for my older two but the baby is another story... And if I am paying Dutch then am I not entitled to invite my own baby?! Grrrr. I think lisa's idea is super funny! Send one shaker! If u really want to go, bring a sitter for the wedding and skip the reception??? Idk. What a butt! Sorry.

Lisa- sorry about the drama. Haha. Maddie and I are reading the llama llama books... All I can think of is llama drama. Haha. Your mama (in law) is full of llama drama!

Laura- sorry honey. We totally understand. Once you are done... You are DONE. get that baby out of me!!! I remember.... Hugs.

Lou- how is ben? He recoveredfine from the fall right?

V-so glad everything is ok. On cloud nine now, huh? so are you over 7 weeks then?

Kc-how's life? Inlaws gone now? Can I come stay with you??? Hahaha.

 

[Onelildream]

Oh and Connor has been sucking on his fingers to go to sleep.... Can someone tell me that is not cute?! I am having a hard time stopping it bc it melts my heart!!! He's so freakin cute... Of course that won't be so cute when he's 5!

 

[lisaf]

lol, it is cute.. I think its adorable when Daniel does it.. I also love his Chewbacca noises, the lip 'popping' he's been doing, and even his 'heh heh' noise when he's excited.

I worry about stuff like that becoming a habit too.. but sometimes its just a cute thing or a phase.

 

[Euronova]

Laura- how are you today? so sorry you are in so much pain!! I hope she comes soon now!!
For the baby monitor, have you tried second hand on ebay or going to the charity shop?

For the wedding, i sort of can understand but also find it strange, we are inviting my cousin without their kids (but they are all 16+ and i don't actually know them and they will be going to other parties I am sure), however we will have a baby sitter for my nephew and nieces and any other kid that is too young to be left.
If you want people to come you have to be arranging!

Looking back at my scan pictures... i still can't get my head round the fact that a 2.6mm thing can have a heart (where does it all fit!)
I think it's quite lucky she spotted the heartbeat as i am bang on six weeks, it prob started beating only a few days ago!

 

[laura6914]

hey all. DUE DATE TODAY.
i have cleaned the house top to bottom. Stripped the bedding and changed it. Changed shaes cot bedding. got the bedding done for when my mum comes up. washed and dried all the clothes that have been lingering in the wash basket. Scrubed and bleached the bathroom and toilet. Eaten my way through 4 chilcken sandwiches and 2 bowles of cereal.

having quite a few period pain niggles which im hoping is a good sign. lots of tightenings to which i have had...erm.... for weeks lol.
Feeling very different today though. Quite positive for a change. lol. Feel like my foof is being sucked inside me which is so weird.

I was up all night again with BAD braxton hicks. Not nice.

How are we all?

Suz, i wouldnt go to the wedding either. As you say you come as a family now. I think thats a little selfish of her to request to be honest.

xx

 

[lisaf]

lol Laura... did you clean the house because of a nesting urge, or did you clean the house to bring on labor?

 

[laura6914]

bit of both i think lis.
I have been needing to do it for days but have been putting it off. I woke up this morning and thought if i do it now, whilst i can actually be bothered then its out the way. lol.
Plus i wont have much time to do a big spring clean like i have today once madam arrives.

xx

 

[lisaf]

lol, I never got the cleaning urge... yes I wanted my place clean, but I kept putting it off waiting for that nesting urge to kick in as if it would somehow do all the cleaning for me and I wouldn't have to lift a finger, lol.
