Moms of April/May/June 2010 babies thread! :)

yeah sarah ikwym! i make excuses for him all the time and never nag him even though he does f all round the home! he's in a foul mood even though he's still in bed. he shouted at erin for singing to owen whilst i was changing his nappy ffs :growlmad: i know he worked nights but he's already had more sleep than i did last night :dohh:
 
Hey all -

Just checking in quickly as I am off to bed - tonight was supposed to be my nigght out but Dave wasnt feeling great so I have come back to look after Amy. I am supper tired tho and feeling a bit stressed out but am off to bed as it has been a really busy day.

Sorry for not catching up properly. Really hope everyone is ok. x x x
 
Happy Easter everyone! :bunny:
Happy Birthday Joni :cake: :cloud9:

maybe - modo did shh pat with Bobby, you could ask her what she did next?? I hope tonight is better! :hugs: I'm with you on the lie-ins. Kerry has got into the habit of doing that lately and I feel a bit :grr: that he never does the same for me! but once I am awake I am glad to be spending time with my children and I tell myself he is missing out :winkwink:

sarah - I bet he is just working hard but I totally understand your feelings. Kerry has always been a workaholic and my mind wanders everytime he comes home stupidly late. I'm the same as you, I dont text him or go on about it and I think he just doesnt realise the thoughts that go through my head. Recently I did say something as there is this beautiful 19 year old that works in his dept and i know that she spends every lunch and tea break with kerry and his friend and he started talking about her all the time. It really got to me and when I did ask if anything was going on he almost laughed he was so shocked I thought that :dohh: I wished i had said something sooner! Hope you had a lovely time at your parents :hugs:

The girls did an easter egg hunt this morning and then we went to Kerry's mum for a BBQ which was very nice x
 
Hi! :hi:

Just checking in, sorry i haven't caught up, i got back this afternoon after a bit of a stay at my brother's, i'm shattered, but we had a lovely time, Roh especially enjoyed himself i think! :) Managed to post some piccies on fb, but i'm going to have to grab an early night :sleep: so i'll have to catch up on what looks like about 8-9 pages tomorrow!

Big :hugs: to all of you!

Oh, and...

:cake: Happy Birthday Joni! :cake:

amy what a great way of looking at it :D thanks! :flower::kiss:
 
well owen went down with a bit more fuss but we got home late from MIL so he was overtired. he's not woken since so just under 2hr stretch :thumbup: i've probably junxed it by posting this tho! am off to shower and bed. night all :hugs:
 
you never know this could be the first good night!!! good luck :hugs:
 
Mork - just realised I forgot to say I hope your nights get better soon too :hugs: I thought of you becasue a huge spider (a hairy one, think its a wolf spider :wacko:) keeps running all over our living room :)
 
i'm so tired from getting up every hour to shush pat :nope: i was less exhausted when i had him in bed and let him bf to sleep :( am close to cracking. was hoping for less wakings by now :sad2:
 
Maybe is Danny off? Get him told! You're only wanting one little lay in!!! Seriously tell him! Its dangerous for you to be so tired all the time!!!

Hope you had a better night Mork!

Amy :shock: at the spider!!!

We had a lovely day yesterday, though Oliver took forever to settle when we got home. He had a great night but then he's woken full of snuffles this morning so I think he has a cold. He still seems quite chirpy though. My 'good morning mummy' kiss was a bit snotty though :haha:
 
Amy how can you let a spider run around your lounge?? Eerkk I wouldnt be able to go in there!!!!
Maybe sorry your night was so bad.
I was up every 40 mins through the night :( no idea what it was bothering her :(
Enjoy your bank holiday x x
 
Mork I was thinking the same about the spider :haha: I would be freaking out until it had been moved and the house searched for more - I'm always paranoid in case they have friends :haha:

Sorry to hear you had another bad night! Could it be teeth?

Oliver is asleep for his nap now, poor boy. He's so full of snot :( He's still pretty cheerful but I think we'll be taking it easy today. Which is good because ireally don't want to spend anything - this month has been SO expensive!!!! As well as paying for the garden (which is costing a lot more than we thought though it is fab and sooooo worth it) I've paid out for my car, car tax, about a hundred quids worth of diesel driving around the place, and loads of other stuff that I can't remember. My savings account is looking sorry for itself so I'm trying not to spend anything. I've got some final payments due so that should help, plus I'm STILL waiting to hear from work - as well as my share save the owe me holiday pay etc. So I just need to be careful for a few weeks. And get some junk on ebay :haha:
 
Evening!

Maybe how was your day? I hope you got a nap at some point but I bet you were running around all day :nope: I can only imagine how hard the sleep training is but stick with it honey, I am sure it will be worth it really soon! Can you speak to Danny and ask him for a lay in on one of his days off? He must see how exhausted you are, it makes me mad that he can see the woman he loves it so tired and not step in to help :grr: :grr:

Well Danny will have company in the shed tonight :haha: Steve has two days off at the moment (today and tomorrow). I've hardly seen him for the last four days because he's been working extra almost every day. So I've been really looking forward to his days off - which he knows. Today he was going to get up with us but got up three hours later. Fair enough - he only got about four hours sleep the night before because he worked so late - so I didn't mind so much. I'd sooner he got some sleep and wasn't a grump :haha: So today has been quite nice, the weather has been lovely again so Oliver and I were sat outside quite a bit while Steve did the garden, but he's absolutely full of cold, poor baby :( He's still been quite cheerful but I could tell he wasn't his normal self. So tomorrow I said to Steve it would be nice to have a day off working in the garden and go to the coast or something, since the kids are all back at school it shouldn't be too busy. But he can't, because he has a funeral in the afternoon. It's someone he worked with and she was lovely, so he absolutely should go, so thats fine. But he's meeting some other people at work and they are sharing cars and all going together which I'm not so happy about. Not that I've said anything. But I imagine he won;t be back until 6pm at the earliest. So I said well maybe we can do something nice in the evening? Except he's already arranged to go playing snooker in Leeds with his friend :grr: He only tells me all this today, when I ask. If I hadn't asked, I expect he would have told me when he needed to get ready. I sit on my own for five evenings a week as it is, and now every flippin week he goes out with his friend, so I now spend 6 evenings a week on my own :cry: So he said well tonight we'll have a nice meal, then watch a film or something, so I thought well at least thats something. So what happens? While I was putting Oliver to bed another friend turns up :grr: :grr: Fair enough, this friend tends to just show up if he knows that Steve's not working, but Steve KNEW he was going out tomorrow so why did he not just say well I'm off Monday Tuesday but we've got plans? He KNOWS what his friend is like! And he most likely won;t leave until about 3am, so Steve will stay in bed for half of tomorrow too :grr: :grr: If the boot was on the other flippin foot it would be a different story :cry: :grr:

So thats seven evenings a week on my own. I'm so pissed off!!! I am so annoyed. I wish he would think about I must feel sometimes. Its not like I spend all day with people at work. Unless I arrange to see my family or friends (which I only ever do when Steve is at work or asleep) or go to groups I never see anyone. I am soooo happy working from home but I never thought it would be asking too much to actually spend some time with my husband :cry: :cry: :cry:

Phew, rant over!!!!! Someone cut the electric to the shed though will you? :haha: :haha:
 
Oh honey, bloody men - they really dont think sometimes do they? I am sorry you are having these evenings on your own - but hey it is our gain as we get to chat to you more! :)
Well girls, I am big time stressed - my lo will not sleep at night nor go to sleep and i almost lost it tonight :( It does not help that dh is only here 2 nights a week to help with bedtime. I think it is a bit of separation anxiety and a developmental thing as she often sits up as she wakes. I dont know what to do anymore :(
x
 
PS Beware of that alton towers thing on fb - I was told it was a virus!x
 
sarah-how completely thoughtless of Steve!!! I'd be fuming! I've posted the wolf spider and her friends to the shed so they can crawl all over him in the dark :grr: he needs to support you and give you some time! :hugs: :hugs: I hope Oliver sleeps OK and gets over the snots quickly :hugs:

maybe - :hugs: I dont know what to suggest, you need a break though :hugs: could you try waiting for a bit longer before you shh-pat each time he wakes? He still needs to learn not to wake every sleep cycle doesnt he? have you tried asking in the baby forum?? hope tonight is better :hugs:

mork - poor you too!!! does your DH help out with night wakings? you must be shattered too! we have so many spiders in this house I gave up being scared of them :hehe: I dont like touching them but I dont mind them running about on the floor. The cats or dog normally catch and eat them :sick: that sounds like we have hundreds :haha: we really dont, there's normally one big wolfie one around every month or so :haha:

another lovely sunny day, another family BBQ :cloud9: I am dreading work tomorrow :( x
 
mork- someone posted that on my FB and i clicked on it :wacko: I closed it though as it looked fishy! Does your DH work nights? its so hard when their sleep is like that. I'm really lucky (touch wood) Alex seemed to grow out of it but he was like it for over a month and I know its a killer :hugs:
 
Mork you poor thing! Its so frustrating when they won't sleep :( Yesterday it took me two hours to get Oliver to sleep, everytime I thought he was asleep and lay him down he would jump back up and start crawling about again :dohh: It was so frustrating! I'm really lucky though because when he did finally fall asleep properly he slept great. I wish I had some advice for you but I'm not sure what you could try, I really hope that you get some sleep soon :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

Amy :rofl: at the wolf spider in the shed :rofl: :rofl: EWWW at the spiders in your house! I see a huge one about once a year (if that :haha:) and thats one too many!! My ex used to get soooooo many HUGE hairy, horrible spids in his house, if it rained they were just everywhere - in the curtains, in the bed, in the sink, scampering accross the floor, OMG they were just shocking! It makes my skin crawl just thinking about it!! I'm soo glad I never moved in :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Im watching Derren Brown on TV now so my evening has improved :haha:
