Well he is there in person, if notin spirit lol George slept through the one and only baby class we have been too as well, how much of a muppet did I feel sat there with no child lolol he was in his pram and I was in a circle of women with babies and toddlers between their legs or on their knees lol

 

[mummy3]

Wiggler, I agree with new, hopeully your OH can come round i Dylan needs the help

Sorry you're so tired 24

New

Anja just pooped on her toy slide here..

 

[new_to_ttc]

Awwwww poor little lady, when will the meds kick in? or hopefully kick in?

 

[hopefulmama]

Today my mood is a total 180 from yesterday, I spent the morning shopping then had lunch with hubby. He got me some amazing shoes.. pure bliss! Here are some pics!

 

[24/7]

Love the shoes. We have the same monitor. xx

 

[Wiggler]

Them shoes are gorgeous!!! I feel like a giant when I wear heels, just abnormally tall so I stick to flats, but flats are soooooo ugly!

Tomorrow is day 1 with no buggy, OH is totally on side with me with this for once and if we can get this sorted by the time he gets back to work it will be great, me and the kids can go out places and he won't get so bored (which sets him off) and I can lose some weight!!!!! Shame there isn't that much stuff for kids around here, but thats gives me the push I need to go visit my mum more.

 

[hopefulmama]

Thanks.. I LOVE heels, i love flats.. love shoes in general.. but I prefer heels since i'm short, plus they make your legs look so sexy!

 

[mummy3]

new, we'll know in a week if they going to havean effect on her bowel.

Hopeful they are gorgeous but I'm really tall like wiggler so no heels here, i feel kinda like a preying mantis in anything other than flats

Good luck for tomorrow wiggler

Eilidhs doc called back, they've decided a week is too long to leave it so now we have an appointment with the nurse tomorrow at 3 so fingers crossed!

 

[Wiggler]

OH told me that I am 100% not allowed to wear heels when we get married. I am 4-5inches taller than him as it is.

I hope the meds help, and good luck for tomorrow

 

[mummy3]

How tall are you wiggler? I'm 5 10 and hubby is the same so he's not fond on the heels either!

 

[Wiggler]

I'm 5 8ish.

Hehe all that screaming must have tired Dylan out, he went to sleep much faster than usual!

 

[mummy3]

Hope you get abit of a rest now hun then, is Bethany sleeping too?

 

[Wiggler]

Bethany has hit her 12 week growth spurt, she hit it 2 days ago Thankfully she handles her growth spurts really well.

 

[Wudluvanuva1]

Good luck for today mummy will have my fingers tightly crossed for little Eilidh!!
That outfit was one i picked up from Asda when i was pregnant think it was only £5 x

 

[new_to_ttc]

Hope the kids let you rest and sleep last night wiggler!

Hope Elidhs weigh in goes well today hun, we're thinking of you

My boys have woke in an awesome mood today I think we may go swimming today, be George's first time, but he LOVES the bath so it'll go alright I hope lol Joshua has been so excited to take him swimming got to wait until 2pm though as the pool opens for particular things over the holidays, so from 11 - 2 its adults only (but the kids swim for free so it can get busy hence adult only slots lol)

Hope everyone is well today Sorry you missed Ashtens dance Wud, glad huggles made it better

I've been looking for Christening gowns for George and really struggling, I dont want him Christened in white but not found anything online or in shops that I like. So, I thought I'd try Joshua's romper on him, although couldnt decide if I actually wanted them wearing the same or not (its not a heirloom piece), they will share the blessed shawl. Anyways, tried it on and love it, its just what I want (obviously as I loved it for Joshua too lol). Do you think it is ok to have both boys share Christening gowns?

First photo is Joshua in it lol, then a couple of it on George I think it fits ok, but not sure if it'll fit in 4 weeks???

 

[mummy3]

Thanks wud

New, awww you know I couldn't have told them apart if you hadnt said, they look so alike! Such a gorgeous outfit, I think it'll fit fine and its perfect

Eilidh has a really bad nappy rash and I' not sure why its not going. She has a couple of blisters too I've put on 2 different types of cream, lots of nudey time and changed her really often, am I missing something?

Can I just say I hate health insurance and want the NHS back too

 

[new_to_ttc]

hellooooooooooooooooo been on my own all afternoon lol Joshua is out, again (Im sure he doesnt like spending time with me lol) and George id sleeping, again lol

Has Elidh had more breast milk than normal? Took George a few weeks to settle on it apparently its really concentrated and can cause nappy rash. She could also be teething?? Any upper body symptoms, cheeks flushed, dribbling and so forth? Could it be thrush hun? In which case she'll need a fungal cream then a barrier cream on top. Canestan or Timodine are both good for bottys, then a good barrier cream, I swear by zinc and castor oil cream, or there is the usual Sudocrem or the one beginning with Bep lol Hope it settles super quick hun.

Is it almst weigh time for you? Oh no its only 4.20pm here so guess you have a few hours again, really hoping it goes ok

I think my boys are really similar, except their mouths, both have paternal mouths lol lucky really as i have a very big gob

 

[mummy3]

:rofl; I'm sure you dont have that big of a gob!

Got another 6 1/2 hours before the weigh in, I've used A and D cream and sudocrem and will ask the nurse to check for thrush. She does dribble everywhere but i cant feel any teeth She has upped her breastmilk, both expressed and boobie.

My 3 youngest all have their dads nose,they are starting to look very different from dd1 who has a different dad. We have no contact with her dad through his choice ( I'm not complaining though) Do your boys? She doesnt want to have anything to do with him which makes things easier but I dunno I've gone of on one I think its the heat here!

 

[new_to_ttc]

I speak to Joshua's dad once or twice a year maybe, he never see's Joshua, never speaks to him or asks about him. joshua knows his dad, and wants nothing to do with. I keep communication open so that Joshua will never ever be able to blame me for him not having his dad around. Sometimes he gets upset and wants to talk about it, other times he says he prefers having a mummy who loves him than a mummy and daddy when he doesnt care. I just go with the flow. I answer what questions I can for him. He knows he has brothers and sisters with his dad, but they dont know Joshua is their brother although they have all met twice. I keep no secrets from Joshua, if he asked I answer truthfully (which will be fun when he eventually asks who is georges dad lol as right now he thinks the baby was in my tummy solely so he could be a brother lol) I did also keep in contact with his paternal family, it was always me making effort, and i regular email photos over, but since they had a new baby in the family they havent got back to me. I havent spoke to them in maybe 2 years now either.

OH is George's daddy and thats just how it is, not a word from the other, and I have no intention of chasing him, he knows where I am and I will talk if he makes the effort, same as Joshua's dad.

Both boys are identical to my brother except for their mouths, which are both paternal. The first picture of george in his Christening suit there is like looking at a baby version of his fathers son.

I would check for thrush if she has blisters hun, and thrush can be caused by teething, or just because it decided to flare up Hope it clears quickly I would try a fungal cream under the barrier cream xxxx
