Wrath!!!! It's 2.30pm, just got back. Lunch is heating. Emerald is hungry and grouchy .

No joke I stood for 1.5 hrs in the most grotesque house and it smelt so strong of cigarettes I swear it's like I smoked an entire pack just standing there breathing normally. Poor Kaida bean.

 

[ashiozz]

eww.. sadly going to my parents house used to be that way, my mom now smokes outside (SO GLAD) but it was so gross.. Ive never ever ever smoked, i am grossed out by it because i lived with it for so long... -.- the smell really irritates me, its kind of bad in casinos too because thats the only place here people are allowed to smoke inside 0.o

 

[Emerald87]

I'm exactly the same way - grew up in a house of smoke and find it disgusting. The more disgusting thing is that I can tell brands of cigarettes apart from their smoke :-/

FINALLY HOME. Wow. What a busy day. I was up all day and I am absolutely positively exhausted. I didn't realise my back would hurt so much from standing! Keeping in mind to avoid that now lol.

 

[gigglebox]

em you made me laugh. a lot. at work. forshame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but not really.

actually the transistion hasn't been bad at all. i am sad though because i want next friday off to see my out of town best friend and my boss won't grant it to me it's really frustrating and upsetting.

 

[ashiozz]

throw marshmallows at your boss and tell him I told you you can have the day off next Friday ..

*sigh* ladies, crisis time.

I basically just got declined my leave of absence from uni. They said I can either
1/ Leave now and take a year off, returning for semester 2 2012; putting Kaida into daycare at 7 months old - I DON'T WANT MY BABY'S FIRST WORD SAID AT DAYCARE
2/ Leave now, take 2 years off and repeat the whole of 3rd year from the start in 2014. Making the last 6 months of my life completely pointless. They will not allow me to return half way through the year if I take 2 years off and that's even if the head of school approves 2 years.

I wanted to get as far through the year as I could and return at the same point the following year. I wanted to get to 30 weeks, which is the end of my Women's Health rotation and then return the following year starting from Paediatrics. But no, if I miss a block (i.e. paediatrics and surgery) this year, I fail the ENTIRE year and have to repeat from the start anyway.

Fuck them. Fuck everything. I'm going to bed.

Ack, I'm sorry Em. That sucks ass. And is totally unfair, you should be able to restart where you left off. They're assholes.

I hope you figure out what you want to do though.

 

[gigglebox]

ok Em, i'm calling bullshit on that! what the hell?! did they at least attempt to give you a logical reason why they are giving you that restriction? that's total crap.

Milf--that place is stunning! i just looked through their photo gallery really quick; there is one of a couple on the staircase that is so pretty! it's, like, gothic romantic style. i really, really like it. so, what dresses are you considering?

 

[ashiozz]

Em , that's complete Bullshit they're doing to you.. do schools work That different in Australia than here? Here you can stop and restart whenever, well, you have to finish a semester but repeating a semester and a whole year = two different matters, that's crap.

I hope you can get it solved

Your comment about Kaidas first word in daycare = MY WORST FEAR and biggest reason I don't want Tyler in daycare. What if his first steps were there? Or his first word?

Mitch asked "what if someone we knew was watching him and the same thing happened?" "If our family was watching him they would record it for us at the very least.. but then itd still be family seeing / hearing and I would be ok with that ><"

Carly that place is GORGEOUS!!!

Yeahhh, baby club... lmao.. I rarely post or even go there, but I saw that thread.. I Don't understand imposing your parental ideas on someone when all they want is advice on piercing the ears not SHOULD SHE do it. Wtf?

-.-

I think I'll pierce Tylers nipples just as a statement .. Im not being serious, but if I wanted to whose business is it..?

 

[Emerald87]

It's only medicine, our other degrees have usually 4 units a semester which you can pretty much do at your leisure and can stop-start at the same spot in the year. I don't know about med degrees elsewhere but everywhere in Australia it isn't broken up into units, one year is one year. In first and second year it's all class work but still not broken into units but third and fourth year are no classes and full time hospital. However those clinical years have 3 blocks a semester which don't change yearly which is why I can't understand why they can't give me credit for the shit I've already done ESPECIALLY when I sit the exam on Wednesday which covers the 3 blocks I just did and thus reinforcing I was there, I completed them and I fucking passed them.
Even if they do acknowledge that I existed and worked my arse off for last semester their acknowledgement has an expiry date like old fucking milk. Then if I do another one or two blocks this coming semester (which, btw, starts a WEEK after exams) they won't count.

I know I'm just repeating myself and I know you guys knew what I was ranting about above but I just needed to rant again. I'm still so frustrated. I'm not putting uni ahead of my daughter. I already have a degree and I'll fucking get a job with that if I have to. This isn't fair, I told them everything before trying to get pregnant. I'm hoping my head of school, who was amazing about this whole thing last year will wave his magic bureaucratic wand and fix everything. I meet with him after exams on the 19th.

Kaida has finally woken up. I think she slept 10 minutes all of yesterday, she was kicking non stop. Then she slept all night. She's usually kicking me by 7am but I got nothing out of her this morning, I assume from pure exhaustion. Its 10.30 and she's woken up now and giving me a nice good morning.

 

[Emerald87]

And what if Kaida called a carer mummy or daddy? I'd never forgive myself. Even the idea of me missing her first anything e.g. word and Colin hearing it without me upsets me. Selfish I know but I'm being honest. It'd be better than at daycare by a million times but I'd still feel like I'd missed out or let her down or something

This is funny because my ex had a child when he was 17 -- i met him when his kid was three, his baby momma had another child after with her now husband but then boyfriend, I used to watch both children for her during days I was not working -- Ok.. so her son that wasn't my exes child used to call me mommy ALL THE TIME.. I would correct him but he refused to call me by my name =/ I felt so bad I couldn't tell her, but Randy did at some point and it didn't even phase her..

-.- I would cry if Tyler called anyone else mommy.

 

[Emerald87]

I had my first pregnancy bath tonight

 

[milf2be]

i know, i think its going to have to be that place whether we can afford it or not

i havent started look at dresses yet...i remember seeing a dress when i was about 16 that was PERFECT, but trying to find that one or similar is not going well

i think i would cry if jake called someone else mummy....hopefully he will never have to.

I know how you feel, i thought the exact same things when i was pregnant with jake. i was only allowed 4 months off with him his childminder was lovely but still....

big drama here atm! jakes bday in july and we have just send the invites out to everyone for his party. my IL (2 be ) are divorced and we are expecting to be some...erm..issues. FIL has a new girlfriend (who i s lovely btw, what she is doing with him i will never understand!), so MIL is panicking about that (she has ocd and anxiety issues...its v complicated!) as shes never met her before. FIL hates MIL parents and they have said they will come.....which means FIL might have a hissy fit and not come....we are yet to tell him, so we will see!

 

[ashiozz]

Emerald- was your bath amazing? I am jealous.

Carly - I absolutely hate when grandparent cannot be civil for their grandbabies. My father refused to come out here when Tyler was born because my mom was here. My parents are divorced and have been since I was six, but we still had holidays together even with my step dad... everyone got along great til my dad remarried and since then he's completely changed.

-.- Guh, When you can't be civil FOR THE GRANDBABIES, you're being SELFISH and it's unnecessary not to mention a really bad example for your children.... -.-

End tangent.

What did this dress look like..?

 

[Emerald87]

The bath was pretty good. I'm considering another I'm very uncomfortable and crampy today so it'd be nice.

In preparation to join the massive vagina club (Hi Katie!!! Come talk to us!!!) I've bought myself a vagina stretchy pump. Since I bleed at the slightest vag trauma I think I should prepare in advance. Apparently it helps prevent tearing. I like that.

 

[gigglebox]

so quiet here...sigh...i've been so busy at work, and when i'm home i'm taking care of the baby.

em i'm sorry for your situation! i hope it all works out.

milf, maybe they will surprise you? sometimes when children are involved people can pull it together for events like that. so what will you be doing for the party?

 

[ashiozz]

woah, they make vagina stretchy pumps? are they especially for childbirth preparation or do people use these like penis pumps..? 0.o SO CONFUSED

Laura it IS quiet it makes me a sad panda. How is work going? I need to figure out how to tell my work im not coming back =/ blah

 

[Emerald87]

Well this one is especially for preparation for childbirth. However Colin likes to inform me that there are also sex toys that have a similar action. I am NOT pleased with him and nor will he be helping me prepare my perineum anymore. Hmph.

Hey Carly, I read on another thread you're an ex-MW. Does that help or hinder the pregnancy journey?
