February 2013 Love Bugs

I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown, LO is really trying my patience today. He has just gone down for his nap and Ive broke down in tears coz Im so stressed How can an 18 month old toddler manage to wind me up this much?! He is SO SO naughty at times!

On a brighter note, I have my scan at 3pm today.

Is baby being less naughty today and moving about more?

Tell me about it with toddlers....I am letting my daughter get away with murder today only because I am being induced tomorrow and I dont want to spend our last day telling her off!

Baby had a good wriggle this morning but nothing since, he is probably just sleeping. Thanks for asking

I am sick to death of telling Oscar 'no' and 'put it back' and 'come away from there' and 'don't do that' but the thing that is really getting to me is how he keeps kicking me and slapping me etc.

it is so difficult with toddlers sometimes.

My little girl occasionally hits out when she just can't express herself and when she is tired. It is so hard not to get REALLY angry with her.

I am glad baby has been wriggling, I am sure scan will show he is just a chilled out boy

I really dislike when kids hit their parents. I bet I'll get a few with Lily. Every child does it. My little sister did.

Thinking of it, Lily has been pretty quiet today, I'll keep an eye on that. I've just had some cereal so hopefully that will wake her up.

AP, I think you have hit the nail on the head when you said about being unable to express themselves. Oscar can't talk. He cant point. He cant do a lot of things to show us what he wants so it must get frustrating for him. HOWEVER, I know for a fact he fully understands the majority of what we say to him and sometimes he is just a naughty little boy for the sake of it! He is going to his Nanas at dinner time and he will be good as gold there

Yep, I am positive the scan will be just fine! What time is your induction tomorrow?

 

[smileyfaces]

Becca, you have made me want some cereal now

 

[BeccaxBump]

Hehe, that's a good thing! Go eat!

Lily is moving, little madam!

Dylan was never really into hitting us, he would beat the crap out of himself though We went through hell with his behaviour, he's mainly out of that now though thankfully (apart from his sleep issues). Bethany is a hitter, she doesn't like being told no, bless her

I am going in at 3pm, I think they will give me the gel just before bed if it is the 6 hour one. If it is the 24 hour one they might give it to me a bit quicker

It is amazing how much they changed between 18 months and 2. My little girl didn't say a huge amount at 18 months at all but now she speaks in full sentences most of the time, it makes life much easier. It is only really when she gets tired and worked up that it all turns into screaming!

It is lovely that your boys will be so close together

 

[BeccaxBump]

Haha! I have no kids to talk about! Hopefully soon .

How you feeling about your sweep tomorrow, Wiggler? I'm nervous! Seriously hope it works. Also, my cervix has dropped and is super soft, is that good?
xoxox

 

[Wiggler]

I'm not nervous, but I also don't think it will do anything

Yup, sounds good hun

 

[BeccaxBump]

Aw, stay positive hun! It may do. At what point do they put you in for a induction?

I'm going at 10am on the dot. I want to be in there early as! Haha.

Wiggler, Oscar smacks his head and pulls his hair and bangs his head on the wall etc. He actually has an appointment next month to see a specialist about a few aspects of his behaviour

AP, I cant even imagine Oscar talking, he is still like a baby babbling and making noises, he doesnt attempt to make words at all.

Mmm, Becca Im off for a bowl of cereal now Think I'll have corn flakes with loads of sugar

 

[smileyfaces]

Yep Becca, a soft cervix is good. I cant even reach mine...

 

[Wiggler]

My MW comes out to me, I told OH that me getting my sweep was the most action our bed will see for a few months

I'm being induced on Monday, pretty sure she won't come before then. I can just picture my stubborn baby clinging tightly to the sides of my uterus screaming "I'm never coming out"

Hope your sweep goes well

 

[mrsswaffer]

Girls, on Wednesday last week, I couldn't feel my cervix at all and then at 9pm, I got my show. It all happened so quickly for me.

Bec, that definitely sounds good - if you don't go into labour spontaneously, they'll at least be able to do the sweep tomorrow.

 

[BeccaxBump]

Smiley - I'm glad I have you ladies, I have no clue! I was shocked I got to feel it, but it's low and very soft, the softest I've felt it.

Wiggler - Exactly the same here! To which my OH called me a perv haha. Cheeky so and so, and you've just made a really comfy home for her, although I keep saying to my tummy "Get out now!"

Smiley Dylan was the same, so so violent to himself, he was covered in bruises where it was so bad. Massive hugs, I know how hard it is "Luckily" Dylan's problems aren't caused by a medical problem, they are caused by how traumatised he was by how our old neighbors treated us We have to wait until he is school age to see how he is, then the poor little guy will probably need therapy. He is "too young" at the moment. I hope Oscars appointment goes well

 

[Wiggler]

I don't think it's that comfy in there, Bethany keeps trying to use the bump as a bouncy castle

 

[BeccaxBump]

Hah! Bless her . She's trying to push the baby out .
