Cheryl, I have thought that many times... Being far away gives us the freedom to not ave the pressure of constant judgement and advice.

 

[baileybubs]

It's not unfair of you Cheryl, I get annoyed with it too. I know people are well meaning but they also forget how long ago they had babies too sometimes! Like Amy said I just listen to their advice and try it if I think it suits us. If not I just say that doesn't work for us. My MIL is great and so helpful but for some reason she's got it in her head that Millie is a hungry baby and keeps suggesting we get hungry baby formula. I keep telling her she's not overly hungry but during the day she likes to drink more frequently but smaller amounts.
If you need a break from it just tell your mum you are too tired to go to dinner, you did just have major surgery after 9 months of growing a human being and now have to look after that newborn 24 hours a day! (I say this because sometimes people don't seem to understand when I say I am tired!!)

And hi Amy how's Emily today?

 

[CherylC3]

Thanks guys I said to my mum and she was like oh no he's ur baby it's just we did it different in my day.. So I glad I said to her.. Well little Leo is fighting sleep the now, he's lying wide awake in his basket when it's nap time lol.. How's Millie? She ok last night?x

 

[MrsDuck]

No you are definitely not out of order, people love to tell you how you should be doing things, it's bad enough when you are organising your wedding. Tell them to butt out hun x

 

[baileybubs]

Aw glad that your mum was ok Cheryl. Millie slept really well last night, just woke at 5am for a feed and went back to sleep. Millie doesn't tend to have nap time at the mo, she just sleeps on and off when she feels like it lol! Think we may struggle once we try to get her into a routine!

Mrs d how are you today?

We are having a lovely family day today coz df has actually got the day off for no reason (maybe his boss has decided to have a softer side lol!)

 

[CherylC3]

Aw my hubby is trying to get into a routine before he goes back to work but Leo has his own routine lol..x

Bailey I love how I can get a proper cuddle off hubby now tht I don't hav a huge bump in my way... And how long are u waiting to ??

Mrs d how's ur wkend been Hun?xx

 

[baileybubs]

We will probably wait til after 6 weeks purely to make sure I'm healed properly and coz hopefully by then I will be able to take the pill again. I'm still a bit wary of sex to be honest coz of all the different aches and pains related to giving birth lol. Hopefully I'll feel more up for it soon though! How are you feeling about it?

 

[MrsDuck]

Afternoon ladies, bailey a family day sounds lovely, I bet you wish your df had more time off x

When does your hubby go back to work Cheryl, I bet it's lovely you all being together at the moment x

I've just had a mammoth lasagne cook off, my hands are sore after all the chopping of all the vegetables that I put in but at least I can fill up the freezer. Now all I've got to do is cook our roast dinner

I've had quite a productive day, I've been in the garden planting loads of strawberry plants and lots of veg that I started off from seeds but are now big enough for the garden and now the cooking. I'm now knackered.

I hope you have all had a lovely weekend xxx

Hi ladies!! Just passing by to say hello! It's been a while.

I was the 1st bfp/birth of the thread. Joseph is 19 weeks now and a huge 18lb 1oz! Super cute and a delight.

Have had a quick flick through the last couple of months since I've been on.

Congratulations to those of you with your new babies!! Also to those of you who are now pregnant. Big love and hugs to the ladies still trying. You girls deserve the cutest little ones of all when your time comes!!

So a big hello from Joseph and I!! Take special care of yourselves xxxxx

[MrsDuck]

[baileybubs]

Hi tooth fairy! Joseph is gorgeous! He looks cheeky lol! Glad to hear all is going well with you both x

 

[MrsDuck]

You aren't lazy bailey you have to look after Millie 24hrs a day. Have you had a nice family day together?

I've bought some fake tan and I'm trying to blend my white body and face with my dark neck, yes that does sound like the start of a disaster but I'm going to give it a go

 

[CherylC3]

[cupcake1981]

Hey girls!

How are we all?

Bailey did you have a lovely family day? Hope so??

Cheryl I can only imagine how annoying all that well meaning advice can get! It will drive be nuts!

Mrs d how's your tan? Do you smell of biscuits now?

Amy sorry little Emily is still poorly, I hope she is better soon. Do you manage to get out and about with her much when dh is at works?

Tawn.....any update? I'm sure you'd have let us know!!

Tooth fairy your lil boy is soooo cute!

We went to the pub earlier with my rents and my bro and his family for dinner, my hubs was being so cute with my bros 3 year old stepson.....had him on his knee and jack was telling him all these jokes that all had the same punchline.....I've always thought I wanted a girl but I was thinking how lovely a daddy my hubs will be to a little boy and I want a boy for him! Lol only 3 days til find out! I really don't mind either way!!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw not long now Hun. So exciting...x

 

[baileybubs]

Cheryl are you allowed back on the pill soon? I've gotta wait coz of my stupid blood pressure!
How's Leo been today?

Cupcake that's so sweet of your dh. I bet he'll be a brilliant dad whether its a boy or a girl (I still say boy though lol!!). Not long til you find out!!

Mrs d we had a lovely relaxing family day. We haven't done much but it was so nice to just relax together. How did the fake tanning go?

 

[Tawn]

Aww toothfairy, so great to have an update from you hun! Joseph is gorgeous!

Cheryl, I'm glad you stood up for yourself and that your mum took it well hun!

Bailey, sounds like a lovely family day! How is DF adapting to daddy-hood? Is he changing dirty nappys and washing bottles etc

Cupcake, 3 days!!!!!!!! Omg so excited! I hope bubba cooperates for you!

MrsD, sounds like you were busy in the garden and "tanning" today! Makes me feel like I wasted the sunshine today being indoors most of the day!

Cath, what cycle day are you starting your cbfm? So excited to see how it works!

Shellie, how is O coming? Anywhere close?

Amy, hope Emily is fully recovered now!

Maryanne, are you at testing time yet hun? Not sure how many dpo you are! Fx'd for you!

Hippie, how is your TWW coming hun?

TTC, if you pop in hun HI! How are things going? When do you get back to ttc?

AFM still not a single sign! Doesn't help that everyone I know who was due around my due date has popped early or at the very least on time! Guess this is the price I pay for my easy pregnancy, but man it is starting to get a little hard to wait! Plus I can't help thinking that every day she is in there she is getting a bit bigger!
