H&f Owen was like that and so was Erin! It gets easier when you start weaning I found xx

H&F don't worry about how your boobs feel - if she's happy, she's getting enough. You'd know about it otherwise. Personally I'd say feed on demand and drink lots of water, feeding will improve your supply too.

I know Oliver is older / feeds less but my boobs are pretty much how they were before I got pregnant, but they still work

 

[muddles]

H&F Sorry to hear about your brother
Are Eva's nappies wet and/or dirty each time you change them? Is she alert and generally happy when she is awake? Is she gaining weight? If they are and she is then I wouldn't worry, it is most likely that your milk supply has regulated to what she needs. Also are you making sure you are eating enough? (think it's around 500 extra calories a day needed up to 6 months/when you start weaning). My boobs feel empty during the day but first thing in the morning they feel full as it has been a while since the last feed. I have been doing Slimming World but the past two days I have been a lot more hungry than normal and K was feeding more so thinking she is having a growth spurt so I sacked off the diet for today and will see what she is like tomorrow.

Maybe try to stay as calm as you can. You are an amazing Mum and from what I know of you you seem like supermum-you manage to work full time, keep on top of household stuff and still find time to be a great Mum to your kids-you can tell they are such happy children as they are always beaming in the photos you add on FB. If Dan isn't going to support you, you are strong enough to do this on your own, of course it wouldn't be easy but you already manage to do pretty much everything by yourself anyway so would it be that much different? I think Dan will find that anyone he talks to about this is going to side with you and tell him to grow up as he played an equal part in you getting pregnant and now he should support you. I doubt he will find anyone who is going to agree with his point of view.

Maybe he takes you all for granted, he needs to start appreciating what he's got more!!!!

 

[maybebaby3]

Thanks girls! Think my life could give eastenders a run for its money I just am sick of the constant arguments, and not just about this baby, about everything

 

[muddles]

I think he has taken you for granted for too long and maybe a bit of time apart will make him realise just what a good life he actually had and just how much you do for him and the kids when he has to do everything himself.

 

[maybebaby3]

He'd just go back to his mum who'd do everything I do for him and more

 

[Sarahwoo]

Well if he's so lazy that he'd sooner live at his mums for the easy life, honestly Hun leave him to it!

 

[muddles]

He'd just go back to his mum who'd do everything I do for him and more

No wonder he expects you to do everything for him then. These Mums that baby their boys do us women no favours do they? I will make damned sure that my boy knows how do things for himself and hope that he will make a good husband for someone one day (he will still be my baby though ) Well if he leaves you to it for a while you would have less arguements and stress, and when baby number four arrives you would still only be looking after four people the same as you do now.

Muddles I said to Steve yesterday that Oliver has done more housework than he has

 

[muddles]

Sarah that's true in our house too. I got a little handheld dustbuster hoover for Christmas (I did ask for one) and it appears that it is one of O's favourite presents as he keeps asking for it, pretty sure he keeps making extra mess on the floor too, and when I was hoovering today he was alongside me with the dustbuster He also got out of bed to remind me that it needs charging (and to try and sneak into my room to watch telly whilst I was feeding K)

 

[Sarahwoo]

Ooohhhh I'd LOVE a handheld Hoover! Which one do you have, is it good?

 

[muddles]

It is this one https://www.tesco.com/direct/black-decker-nw3660n-wet-dry-dustbuster-handheld-vacuum-cleaner/202-2174.prd and yes it seems good, picks up all the bits of fluff and crumbs from snacks etc as I was sick of having to move everything to get the proper hoover out each day. Now I can just use this in between then do a proper hoover when I do the rest of the housework.

Edited to add I have only had to charge it for the second time today, and I use it everyday.

 

[Sarahwoo]

Wow that's a great price! I was looking at a Dyson - ouch! I have a normal Dyson but getting it out is such a pain

 

[muddles]

I'd love a mini Dyson! I thought I would use the dustbuster a lot but said just get me a cheap one for now (partly so I could still have some other presents too )

Better go to bed, got a Kindle Fire for my birthday so been loving being able to read in the dark. Night night.

 

[Sarahwoo]

Night night xx

 

[maybebaby3]

He never came back. Texted him all throughout the night and no reply. Tried to call him and he's switched off his phone. Talk about inconsiderate. I feel sad, angry, sick and a whole lot else. How dare he first say he is going for a little walk and then never come back. Now I have to go to work and somehow make it through the day

 

[hope&faith09]

Maybe I agree with the posts the Others have made - you deserve more and he doesn't seem to be showing any concern for his behaviour ... It makes me really mad.

As for e here nappies are wet everytime and seems content i guess it's just her! I am so used to Amy who was miss independent from day 1 - I guess I can just enjoy more cuddles from little miss! My brother is going in to rehab today - fingers crossed he actually goes, he is supposed to be being picked up by ambulance this morning.
