Clomid Club Graduate Buddies

Aw Jess, definitely talk to someone if you're feeling overwhelmed by normal things all the time. PND can come on anytime in the first year.
I think I heard someone say that if you're not enjoying being a mom at least 51% of the time, then you need help. (thats not to say that you don't love your child, but just that you find most of it to be difficult rather than enjoyable)

I totally feel like my PND is back.. same as if I didn't have the meds at all. I think its all this stress that is just overwhelming my abilities to cope with my PND. Will see how it goes over the next week or 2 before going to the doctor.

Had a lovely weekend home with Daniel, got him back on track and he's on a normal routine, not gassy at all, not overly fussy... now to see if the drug lady messes him up as bad as my inlaws do
Have to put down a deposit in case we pull him out without giving notice.. didn't expect that, but oh well, right?

Lisa- sorry bout the unexpected deposit!

Jess- it totally can sneak up on u. Don't feel bad about having to go on something. I love the hair btw. It will be so easy once it relaxes! I'm jealous! I want easy hair! I really think a letter might be a good idea to get it all out... Then u can be a but more forward with how u r feeling.

Lou- love the hair too! U are so stinkin cute! Yay for ben's tooth. Now all the rest will follow suit. Hopefully that means he'll be exhausted and actually sleep. who am I kidding?! Sorry!

Gdane- I had 40 day cycles too. My first clomid cycle I got preg (but lost the baby) but my second cycle got preg again and have a lovely healthy little boy now. My ovulation was still later than normal but I was still able to get preg. I took 50mg days 3-7 I think, but ovulated day 18 I think.

Suz glad u had a good BBQ. U never told us what u picked out from that antique shop u were going to... What else did u get?

Lisa- oh geez! I hope things stay on schedule this week! Poor Daniel! ...poor you!

Afm great Sunday dinner with 3 couples over. And 3 more kiddos. The one little firecracker boy was back over; my heavens he is just so much! Gets all the kids riled up and fighting. I cannot handle it. No boundaries, that boy. Tomorrow celebrating hubs' birthday. Going school shopping for the little one. So excited for her! Going out to lunch with daddy...

Been running 2 miles every (weekday) morning. I'm too out of shape tho. I thought of hubs running his marathon, after my first mile last week, and seriously broke down and cried. Hahahha. I felt awful just thinking of going that far!

 

[Onelildream]

Oh yeah forgot to tell u that my friend /neighbor was renting an old house and the landlords were trying to fix it up; painting, sanding, etc. Totally gave her 2 kids lead poisoning. Can u believe that?! Horrible. They have a 2 yr old and a 6 mo old that have to get bone marrow biopsies now and can have kidney failure. The one older one has had speech problems and now they know it's a form of mental r.e.t.a.r.d.a.t.I.o.n (apparently that is a swear word I cannot post) from lead poisoning. So horrible. Makes me never want an old house now!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Omg Chell, that's so awful about your neighbours kids. The poor things

Lisa, glad you had a good weekend with Daniel! Good luck with the drug lady!!

I don't think that I would take drugs for PND just yet, I'd prefer CBT or something before that. It's probably cheaper for the NHS to give me drugs though! Lou, Joe's got better on the day to day affection stuff, well at least now I don't feel like I'm begging all the time!

 

[SBB]

Morning girls :wave: we have loads of shit to clean up after yesterday house is a total mess!!

Jess sorry you are feeling shit I do think it's normal to some extent. I have days where I freak cos I cannot imagine how everything will get done, and something like a dirty muslin in the sink will tip me over the edge cos I can't see how I can even get the washing done!
But my MW said to my family that if I don't seem myself to talk to them. I think if this is out of character for you then maybe you could do with some help dealing with it. You're right though I'm sure they'd rather give you drugs than CBT! much cheaper... But if you don't want drugs try and push for something else...

How's the hair today?!

Chell that's so awful about those kids

Lisa I'm glad you've had a nice weekend with Daniel...

[Peach Blossom]

Oh Suz I keep meaning to tell you, currently the top search referral to my blog is "3D angel wings art"!!

 

[SBB]

It looks lovely Jess! Love the little flowers in it too - very cute!
So will it drop out a bit more still? I think it looks lovely as it is though!

Wow really?! How do people know?! I can make you another one for your charity again if you like. Or a big wool letter or something. Are you doing the auction this year?

X x x

 

[SBB]

Does your hair feel/smell better too?

X x x

 

[babyloulou]

Your hair looks lovely Jess! I was slightly concerned though when the photo first started opening cos all I could see was the spiky plant at the top! I thought that was your hair!

Do you think the Joe thing is behind how you're feeling? Or is it the mothering bit? X

Chel- that's awful about those kids

[babyloulou]

The back glass has shattered and there's a small crack on the front

I'm slightly concerned that his tooth looks crooked already! Me and Ste have both got wonky teeth so the poor kid hasn't got a chance of having straight teeth!!

 

[babyloulou]

wow look at these cute little toofs! Its kinda hard to see on my ipod so I had to go sit at the desktop. wonder how bad it really does hurt to cut teeth. Guess we will never know!

Chell sounds like you had a fun crazy sunday seeing so many people and being so busy! Weekends are supposed to be for relaxation right? ha. Whatd you get for Lars bday?

Jess your hair looks so cute, love the little flowers! Do you always put flowers in there?

This weekeend was weird, the inlaws were here for a night but the grandma said she had a cold on sunday so I was adamant she not touch jimmy and so they left early. We didn't see the point in them being here if she had to not touch anything. I also just wanted her to leave but thankfully I had a real excuse! who wants a sick baby? She had just flown in from Peru and so it was some weird south american cold. She bugs me so much but not as bad as lisa's situation for sure. I just get bugged by how she wants to chat all day long about stupid shit, all day long and she has bad breath. The granpa and my DH ignore her cuz they are allowed to as family.

I am getting a little anxious on how it will be with the inlaws taking care of jimmy for a whole week while we go to hawaii in october based on how bad lisa says. I think I just have to be okay with the fact that we will come back and jimmy might be totally fussy and off schedule for awhile. He might not even like us anymore! And also I think he will cry the first 3 days with the inlaws because he still sobs everytime she starts jabbering at him. So I hope they can handle it.

Well I am off to throw the ball with the dog out in the yard while holding the baby like I do 20 times a day.

You guys I need help- what can I buy for bobs birthday? It's aug 29 and he says he doesnt want anything but peace and quiet. He is joking but seriously what's a neat gift I could preferably buy online? He has all the hi tek stuff he needs- and doesnt want to go anywhere. He likes sports and relaxing. He likes to Play stupid crazy chickens on the iPhone alot and do puzzles which is something I don't want to get cuz he tunes us out when doing one! Guys are so good at claiming their relaxation time aren't they? Any ideas for the guy who has it all ?
