Evening girls

Jess- sorry about Joe It must be so hard to have watched him move his stuff out Is it all gone now?

V- sorry you've had such a shit day That's strange about your OH- but then on the other hand I can imagine Ste lying over something like that if he thought I'd be angry too. Men!!!!

Your SIL sounds very selfish! What did your MIL say about it?

Suz- that would wind me up about Danny acting knackered! Especially if I was pregnant....

Ben is poorly for a change! He's not slept for 3 nights barely at all. Hasn't slept all day today and now has a high temperature (nearly 39)

Have you popped yet? you need to post a bump picture!!!

I am putting on weight like there is no tomorrow now... trying to slow it down a bit so i hit my target at 5 months on the 24th of Feb.
No wonder with a baby you are not putting on weight, do you even have time to eat!!!

Did I say things were better had another rush of hormones, and went all over all the issues again anyway i think this time the message has really hit home well until next time!

I noticed something, my belly goes all pointy when i try to lift my upper body up using my abs... so funny.... LO in there has been having a rumble all day! I guess he is high on stress hormones I am going to have a stressed out child

MIL told us off cause SIL was upset.... it never seems to matter that we are upset???!!! Anyhow we got a text from her fiancé and he is buying the parts on Monday and coming on Tuesday (will clash with the window people but i don't care..) How much do you bet that he has not got all the part or that he is putting the vent to go into the loft when I said about 10 times I'd rather the vent exited outside as we store quite a few things in the loft.... we shall see!

Poor Ben being unwell AGAIN

 

[SBB]

Ha sorry V I thought you were feeling better cos you'd chucked loads of stuff away
Glad sils fiancé is finally pulling his finger out!!

Lou I can't believe Ben is ill again poor baby!

Yeh V I have popped, got a definite bump, will post a pic tomorrow... I eat quite a lot, for the most part I'm pretty healthy but I do eat a fair amount of crap too!! I think I've just been stressed and also still bf is bound to have an effect.

Lou seriously Danny is acting like he's ill, worse than how pathetic I am when I'm actually ill!!! Doing my head in!

Sammuel woke while we were out and mil managed to get him back to sleep which I'm surprised about! But glad he is ok. Don't like leaving him though and we were about half an hour away... If I'm round the corner it's easier cos I know I can come home in 2 mins!

I know what you mean Suz! I can't imagine leaving Ben with anyone in the evening- but thats probably also because he's such a bad sleeper! Would be nice if me and Ste could have an evening out though finally!! The fact he's been up a million times already this evening does NOT give me much hope for it happening soon.....

 

[SBB]

I could come and babysit at least you'd know I have experience
I always think we'd enjoy a night out but actually I miss being near Sammuel!

I think bens sleeping has improved overall though? He was doing so well, it seems he has a set back when he's ill? Which is all the time obviously he'll be better again and sleeping well again soon I think!

Are you still in the spare room and ste doing the nights?

X x x

 

[babyloulou]

I'm in our big comfy bed and Ste is in the spare room AND doing the nights!! Poor Ste!! He's that bad at the moment though Ste is having to bring him in to me about 4:30 so he can have at least a couple of hours sleep before work. Ben's not even going back to sleep again then either He was so tired today that he was trying to sleep on my shoulder in the pool (been for his underwater photo shoot) - he could barely stay awake! But then straight after we had an hours drive back home and he wouldn't frigging sleep in the car He kept drifting off for about 2 mins at a time then waking up crying

 

[SBB]

God Lou I wonder why he's SO bad again?!

Sammuel didn't sleep great last night either but hopefully he is better tonight and on the whole. He's been feeding a bit more generally which is good as I'm sure my milk is drying up now

[SBB]

Tried to do a bump pic this morning but it's disappeared so will have to do it later after food!

X x x

 

[Euronova]

Come on!! Where is that bump picture then???
I can't believe Danny is complaining of being tired... this said, I am absolutely shattered every time I look after my nephew or nieces even for a few hours... I think it's because when you don't do it everyday you feel so much more on your guard all the time and you get quite drained!

Lou, sorry Ben is not sleeping I really feel for you both you must be SO tired!

Today we went to MIL... the whole drama about the fan seems to have been forgotten and hopefully after SIL's fiancé comes in the week we can forget about it all!
Other SIL wanted us to look at all the baby stuff she had packed away for us to have.... she can be a bit of an obsessive buyer and i think she clearly was having a hard time with her partner (who now has a restraining order not to come anywhere near her)... she had over 4 giant suitcases packed ready to explode of 0-6 months old clothes for her boy!!!
(I am not even talking about all the other clothes for the next sizes up!!
We spent about 3 hours looking through it all and I can safely say that even being really selective and only taking the cutest/smartest thing... our baby is absolutely fully clothed!! I am going to wash it all and sort it all buy size and store it until we get delivery of the bedroom next months.
She is also giving us her cot mattress that she never used (her boy has been co-sleeping). I just can't believe how much stuff we came back with, and that was being very harsh saying no to most of it!
MIL also insisted that we took a few stuff that she kept from OH... these are very old school crochet outfits but it will be cute for pictures and I also did manage not to bring too much over! I was a nice afternoon though and even though I am sure we will also want to buy loads of things, it is quite nice to have all these really cute outfits for free (we have so much to spend on other things!!)
Got a special pen to write on all the clothes we are being given so we can give them back... I think I will have to say no to cousins and others as there is SO much from SIL that i think we will never really need more!

V, I didn't have to buy anything for Lili until she was about 7 months old! Not to say I didn't, but I had no need to. I still get bags of clothes from friends and family!

I've had a bit of an outrageous week... check my blog for details!

 

[SBB]

You're so lucky getting all that stuff! Glad you had a good day...

totally forgot bump pic and now have no clothes on under my dressing gown

Saw the bump move in the bath! Little kicks!

[Peach Blossom]

How cute Suz... Weirdly, I watched the last 2 mins of One Born the other day and watching a woman in labour really made me want to be in labour again... I know wierdo!

 

[SBB]

Jess!!!!!!!!!!!

(at the blog, not the labour!)

X x x

 

[Peach Blossom]

I blame the new moon!

 

[Euronova]

Oh can you PM me the blog link? I need some entertainment!

Yes I do feel lucky especially as my brothers and sisters are much older so did not keep anything, they passed it onto friends! and most the stuff I took are like new or even with labels on! She really went mad buying stuff as there is still more than twice as much left at the MIL's house!

 

[SBB]

My only friend with a baby didn't offer a single thing!!!

Jess I'll be reading your blog this week to see what happens with FF!!

X x x

 

[Peach Blossom]

Haha! let's hope he doesn't disappoint us!

 

[Euronova]

Love the blog! Makes me laugh as I would totally do exactly what you do! I have a slight obsession with underwear and sending pictures of me in it although OH is not always as enthusiastic about it as I would like him to be! It works better in the flirty part of a new relationship than after many years of having seen it all!!

That's not very nice of your friend Suz, this said our friend that has a one year old has not offered a single thing. Even when I asked of she liked her bouncer as I am planning on getting the same one. She won't use it and is not preggers so I would be done with it way before she needs it again!

I guess it depends on people. I might not want to lend some of my stuff. And to be fair we do have loads of pets so I can understand people might not want to lend us things.

 

[SBB]

Yeh I had the same thing with a Moses when I couldn't decide to get one... Hers was literally taking up room in their tiny place and no offer! I bet she won't offer her clothes either if we have a girl...

My friend is pregnant and I offered her everything even the car seat as Sammuel is out of it now and they are on a tight budget. I lent her all my maternity clothes etc then had to ask for them back oops!

Speaking of lending Jess are you still up for lending me the teeny fits? I really don't mind at all if you'd rather not, just let me know so I know whether to buy more baby fluff
