September Stars

I intended on tandem feeding but Tabs self weaned.

GG :hugs: again hon

Eeek YM and :hugs: its not easy, its really fun having babies but I still feel like I've missed out on so much sometimes. Although I would NEVER EVER change anything sometimes I do wonder about life :hugs:
 
BTP, meant to ask if you got Sophie sorted at preschool?

Yes thanks, she is going in 2 hours tomorrow, same on Thurs then starting afternoons Mon, Wed and Thurs next week! We got there and she wanted to stay, she made 2 friends in the time i stood and sorted the days out! I think she will be fine. Morning sessions are full but she doesn't get out of bed anyway, she is having 1.30-4 for now, then she can stay the full session if we want or she wants which includes tea time, and then she stays til 5.30, i think that's too late though for now as its not a child care option for us its just to get her used to other children and a mini school routine and being away from us!
Thanks for asking!

Btp my impression of you dh is someone who was a Proud man who feels like a failure because he can't work and his self esteem is such that he lays around feeling sorry for himself, he is possibly so scared of losing you he is pushing you to the limit because he thinks you will leave anyway ! He try's to make himself feel better by looking on the net and now possibly does it to see what you do !
I hope I haven't crossed a line ? Men are funny things I had a friends dh who did exactly the above x

Btp GG really makes sense. I have heard that it's quite common for people to test the ones they love when they're feeling vulnerable. They push them away to prove to themselves that they won't come back. Plus, excuse me for saying so but it must have really knocked his confidence that he didn't get you pregnant in the traditional way. Could you seek counselling?

To a point this is the case, he did feel a bit useless when he had to stop work, but he has a very high self confidence about himself so that would be impossible to knock! Even now he thinks he is gods gift to women and what a lucky woman i am!!(although perhaps that is a front:shrug:)
My ex husband was on self destruct so i know what that is like! (the scared of loosing you bit was exactly what happened with us and his alcoholism he just kept pushing til i went)
The baby thing, I never actually told him that the syringe was successful, i managed to dtd mid month and not being a man of women's cycles he has always believed Rosie was from dtd, although he was ok with it anyway, he had seen me do so much daft stuff ttc over the months I think that was not a surprise!!:haha:(it was still his 'super sperm' that did the job however it got there!)
So I agree the not working setting it off more, and the proudness being an issue, he is a terrible communicator also and i think atm i have given up doing all the talking and asking! (I have always been the one int he relationship to make the effort i suppose!)
We did chat a bit last night, and its a process as i am still annoyed at him for shouting in my face, I do see his problem, and i think his worst thing is he is in pain daily, and that must be awful, and draining, but we still have our lives to get on with.
Fishy I don't think he would accept counceling yet, but if things got to breaking point i would seek outside help before they broke, i do try and remember the reasons we are together!
Thanks for your thoughts!:hugs:

Right i have to go for now, dentist this morning, just to sort out what happens next!

I am loving Rosie's walking everywhere atm, it is so cute, she looks way too small to walk, and she puts her arms in the air, its like a mini zombie stomping about!!!
Oh and she went from 12.30-4.20 between a feed last night!!!:happydance: Except after 3 hours i woke up worried about her!! BUT it is the first time in ages I woke up myself and was not disturbed! Feeling much better for that!

Back later to catch up! :hugs::kiss:
 
Thanks so much for all your comments girls, feel much better about it :hugs: Now just need that BFP!!

Laura good luck with the scan! Hope you are as far as you thought x

BTP bless Rosie walking! Holly is still only taking a few steps here and there, the most she has done is 6 before she drops down and crawls! Glad you got a better nights sleep.

Becs I haven't read the wonder weeks book but I've read bits on the net and seen the chart, it makes a lot of sense and helps you understand why they might be unsettled.

Forgotten everything else! Daddy has taken Holly for her jabs this morning as he had the morning off work. I'm glad he has taken her! I think it's nice for him to be involved in things like that too, as it's normally a 'mummy' thing to do and it's nice for me not to have to do it!! Hopefully she's been ok. How have those that have had their jabs already coped with them?

x
 
Hi girls

Just an update, Holly had her jabs and Matt said she screamed the place down on all 3! lol Then insisted on being carried all the way home as she wouldn't go back in her buggy! She arrived home with a handfull of leaves, as Matt said she wanted to stop at every tree and pull a leaf off! She totally has Daddy wrapped around her little finger! lol She's fine now, I'm currently watching her put the sky remote in and out of the lift up seat on her ride on plane lol She has also been jumping all over the cat all morning as well!

Did any LOs that have had the jabs have any reactions later on? The lady said they could come out any time up to 10 days x
 
Emzy- Ollie only had 1 jab he has another 1 5th October but he had his on Wednesday and he was fine up until Friday night and he then started to get a temp and then Saturday morning he had Diarrhea (sp?) and off his food and was like this until Monday morning and was really clingy but he is back to himself now.
 
Good Luck Laura :flower:

Tabs wasn't bothered by her jags but friends LOs have been affected for a few weeks after
 
Thanks girls for all your well wishes !! Well the good is that bean is nice and healthy, the bad is that it was an awkward little ratbag that wouldnt co-operate and from what measurements they could take dated me at 10+5 instead.....

Have got to go back in 2 weeks and they will redo the measurements then for me. xx
 
Oh no Laura lets hope LO co-operates next time and hopefully your measured at what date you think you are. I bet its not nice been put back.
 
Ew yuck Laura with the being put back, but YAY for a healthy little bean!!! Fab news xx

Aw Firstbean, poor Ollie, I hate the jabs thing, but at least you know whatever they have is just temporary. Glad he's back to himself. x

Emzy, hope Holly's okay tonight after hers. xx

BTP, glad you got Sophie sorted. I love seeing them interacting with other kids, especially in a nursery/pre school situation. It made me feel very proud when it was Archie and jack. xx

I am tired tonight. In a week's time, I will have done my first day at work. Blimey, I really am going on about this now!! Sorry!! Am off to bed, catch you lovely ladies tomorrow. Sleep tight! xx
 
Don't forget the bomb squad on bbc1 tonight at 10.35!

Laura boo to being put back! I hope they can be more accurate next time and find you were right all along!
 
Louise- having a sky box recording conflict at the same time but thats when the virgin box comes in handy !!! both me and hubby will be watching it xx

first bean- My doctor said the stuff they inject them with does not cause any side effects.. both me and Grant came out saying what a load of rubbish because i know so many mums who say how off their babies were after. Paige didn't have any side effects but i always wonder if its the experience and the pain in the leg were the injection went which causes them to be off after the injections....Im dreaded Paiges 1 year lot... the screaming only last seconds but it was enough to make me cry...Glad he is feeling better honey xx

Laura- did you get any photos? !! i want to guess the sex !! so pleased its a healthy bean xx
 
Laura - yay for the scan glad bean is doing well. Hope your not too disappointed with being put back a couple of weeks. At least you get to go back again in a couple of weeks :-)

FB - hope Ollies ok, I still need to book JJ in for his in a couple of weeks time.

Asher - before I went back to work it was constantly on my mind it feels like an end of a chapter but a new one is just a page turn away! Sammy will love it

Im full of cold again or could be sinus either way I feel poop. Been to a hen do tonight fir a dear school friend. It was a lovely night as it's normally hard to get all 7 of us together hence a Tuesday night as 5 can't make the official hen do. All ended up talking about ex boyfriends and funny scenarios when we were younger. It's nice to think even after 20 years we all still keep in touch. Can't wait for the wedding in a couple of weeks just not sure what to do with JJ in the evening. Anyone taken Lo out of an evening? Any tips that will come in handy? Think we may need to go home if he doesn't settle and unfortunately mum can't babysit with dad being ill.
 
Jelly - if you have no alternative (ie no sitter possible), here is my advice on bringing baby out: do plan to leave early and try hard to leave on a good note - ie, before any meltdowns happen. And even if you know for sure that the wedding feast will be suitable for him, bring a lot of finger foods and snacks. If JJ is anything like my little porkers, nibbles will keep him happy and occupied for a long time.
:thumbup:
 
Jelly we've taken Holly out in the evening occasionally, for weddings and the like. I put her in her PJs and give her bottle at normal time, then she usually gets tired later because of everything going on. When she gets tired, I usually put her to sleep in her pram and she will usually sleep for a while and then wake up again and just have a late night. Almost like having a late nap! She's always been a little star though and the change in routine has not bothered her for one night.

Laura yay that bean is healthy, boo that they have put you back! Like Jelly said, at least you get to go back in 2 weeks!

Asher once you're back at work it will probably feel like you've never been away!

Louise I sky plussed it and am watching it now!

Started my new 6-10pm shift tonight and the shift flew by! It worked well meeting Matt at the station and him taking Holly home with him too :)

Apparently Holly has been a bit unsettled tonight and has woken a few times, so I am expecting a bad night after her jabs. Hope it's not too bad as we're off to toddler group tomorrow at 9.30!
 
Just dropping in to say it looks like waynes team is next week, the lad it showed at the end saying they've lost 3 lads in 3 months, that was waynes team, he went to join them after that. It was very humbling to watch, I'm a lucky girl that Wayne came back in one piece x
 
Jelly- We are taking Paige to a wedding in the evening of her birthday, im dreading it as she gets really ratty when she is tired so we are going to give her a late nap after her party... we just have to adjust all the ap times for the whole of that day.. just hope it works. xx

Louise- I now know to send cheese in care packages sent out there... i guess we take a lot of things for granted... being so young losing arms and legs... really upsetting.. Is wayne on nexts week ? did he get to be filmed a lot? x
 
Kara yes it's waynes team on next week, the guy they filmed at the end saying they'd lost 3 men in 3 months is Jamie who's on waynes team. They filmed with him a lot, followed them out on a few jobs including the one they are going to show. He had some 1 to 1 interviews but who knows what they'll show x
 
Ladyk- I agree the doctor is talking rubbish lol Ollie has had side effects with every lot of jabs he has had so I dont think its just coincidence he is poorly for a few days after them I do think they dont agree with him.
Jelly- I am taking Ollie to a 80th party on Friday night its OH Nanas birthday and it doesnt start till half 7 and Ollie is usually in bed for 7 so think I am just going to bath him and get him ready for bed give him his supper and then let him go to sleep in pushchair if he wants to. I usually have a sitter organised but they are all going to the party.
Emzy- Glad you are liking your new shift I bet it does fly by. Hope you didnt have too bad of a night with Holly.
I am still trying to get through our packing for our hols I cant be bothered to do it at all, I hate packing. Got to go Ollie has just poured a whole glass of water on himself.
 
Hi ladies, just apologises in advance for being a rubbish thread mate.
Thank you to those that added me on FB and I hope you enjoyed looking through my wedding pics- when I get more time I'll post a few for those that haven't seen them.
Also, some of you already know but I got my degree results- An upper second class honours! (2:1). Not bad at 30 years old and two children later! I was so proud of myself. :happydance:
Enough about me, Riley took two wobbly steps on saturday but that is it. He stands unaided all the time but he does not have the confidence to walk. :nope: He is turning into such a cheeky boy and he is so funny, but the new found shrieking is not so fun!
May I send a few personals- Genies, massive :hugs: my lovely. I know first hand how scary it is to have a close fasmily member with cancer, but I send you lots of love and I'll keep you in my thoughts.
Laura- I am so glad your little bubba is fine and healthy.
Emzy- I am still BF Riley and will continue. There is 7 1/2 yrs between my boys which is a lot, hence why I would love another one anytime soon! It is all personal choice and what is right for you and Matt!

Oh crap, I have forgotten everything- the reason being that I did a HPT and got the FAINTEST ever line, I mean really faint, squint your eyes and look in a certain light kinda line. I am secretly hoping for a BFP so I will keep you updated.

Catch you all soon. x
