oooo whens your next midwife appointment hun? is nothing helping the pain hun? have you tried all the things like hot water bottles and hot/cold pads? not long hun and its all over with and you will the beautiful little Niamh in your arms xx

 

[CottlestonPie]

Sparkle oooohhh good luck hun! Hope everything goes well for you and hubby gets there in plenty of time.

Jenny, eek! I wonder how long she'll keep you waiting.

Seths, any improvement with Ethan hun?

Afm, I've spent the past 24hrs with vomitting and diarrhea. Great fun. Liquids are going straight through me so I'm dehydrated which is making me pass out and making bump rock solid and really tight. It's like I've had a constant BH all day. So uncomfortable. I had Toby to look after too but I'm worried about my passing out if he's here so I'm sending him to his aunties tomorrow so I can try to relax, get some more fluid in me and hopefully get better. Tummy bugs are eeeeevil.

 

[Jenny_J]

I see the midwife tomo, id defo mention this but doubt she can do much to help.
Iv tried paracetamol and hot showers, it doesn't help im a pretty miserable heffer at the mo.

Im walking like a gorilla that's shat itself lol

 

[sethsmummy]

awww hun i hope you feel much better today?? Get as much rest as you can while your sister has Toby hun
ethan is a little better, we had his first normal poo last night but he puked all over me whilst pushing it out... then again when he started with the hiccups. he still has his rash though. a friend has told me to try him with colief as its supposed to be really good??

aww jenny sorry nothings working hun. if not tried already deff try hot water bottle thats what helped me on bad days. lol i had to laugh at your gorilla thats shat itself lol i literally have that image in my head now

sparkle - GOOD LUCK TODAY HUN!!!

 

[CottlestonPie]

Colief is good but expensive do try and get it on prescription if you can hun
Glad to hear he's pooping now though xx

I'm a bit annoyed with DHs work. Theyve been bugging him to get a dr note that explains that I have spd and need help during the day as I'm finding it a struggle doing day to day activities and would benefit from having someone at home to help me. (ie DH working from home).
Took me ages to find a doctor who would actually write a letter and now we've handed it in to his work they're saying that a) they need a doctor to explain what spd is rather than just "she's got it"... b) the letter said that one of the activities I struggle with is running around after a toddler so DHs work won't accept it because they don't want him doing childcare during his working hours. I'm getting so frustrated. I mean, I understand they don't want him bunking off work but he's converted out spare room into a home office (he even built his own desk ffs), does more work at home than he does in the office, does overtime for them most weekends and at least 3 days a week... All to prove that he's capable of working and helping me at the same time and now we're having to jump through hoops to get what we need.

This is probably no big deal in the real world but I'm ill, feeling sorry for myself, and super ratty. So having to phone a doctor and practically dictate a letter to suit someone else when we've already done everything we've been told we need to is pissing me off.

Sorry for the essay ladies. Need to let off steam. God only knows what his work will do if I find myself on bed rest.

Cottleston - that sounds awful. It sounds like he does well more than he should for the company it's about time that they give something in return and look after their employees. They shouldn't be allowed to ask for information on what is wrong that is confidential. The doctor's note should have been more than adequete. Hope you feel better soon, sounds like your having an awful time of it.

Massoma - aww i really hope everything works out for you this time. I am really sorry for your loss. I have everything crossed.

Seths - thank you glad to hear ethan done his first normal poo. Poor wee mite. Must have been really bad if he was sick at the same time. Hope he is back to himself soon.

Sparkle - Good luck I have everything crossed for you. Enjoy every moment

Cherry - Congratulations that sounds like it all happened so fast. Glad paige is ok. How are you recovering after the C-Section?

As it turns out the consultant appointment is to discuss injections called fragmin. I have to inject myself with this thing for 5 days to 2 weeks after the birth and depending on my health I was going to have to take it during the pregnancy as well. Thank goodness they have agreed just after. The good thing was I got to hear little babas heartbeat and it was absolutely incredible .

Hope everyone is doing well.

xxxxxx

they are not too bad dont worry hun. They just sting for the first few seconds after you inject it. I'm loving it hun.. to be honest its not much harder going from the one.. to two. it takes a bit more effort going out of the flat but apart from that its great DS1 absolutely loves DS2 he is the perfect doting big brother xxx
