Sticking Together Crew

[AmaryllisRed]

Well, I really can't because his bassinet is in our bedroom and DH was sleeping. I did put him in his bouncer and take him in the bathroom with me (which is actually right next to our room). But he stopped crying when the water was running.
I feel like a new person when I manage a shower.
Then Samuel had a bath.
And tonight Thomas gets one. We will be a clean family for once!
Thomas has to go to the dentist tomorrow. He was sick two weeks ago and I had to reschedule. I hate taking him to the dentist. I hate the dentist and I feel like he can sense that and it makes him more nervous about it.

Hey all so quiet in here now (I don't like it)

YAsa Tracey how are you both doing?? Tracey have you had ur gender scan yet Hun

How are all my yummy mummies doing

We've not been upto much I've forgotten what it's like to sleep and have no idea what I'm running on lol but Ava is such a good girl
Got her registered yesterday yay
I fell in to the co sleeping trap for a bit but were almost out of it and she's sleeping for longer in her basket

Xxxxx

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Yeah, thank goodness for facebook or I'd have no idea what's going on with all of you!! Except Vicki... I've got everyone else now on FB, right?

Awww, Stacey, the first couple weeks are crazy. But by your 6 week check you'll forget it all and want to do it again. Especially you, brave no-meds lady!!

Oh, so weird thing-- the other day while sitting holding Samuel, I felt my nipples tingling like they used to when my milk was coming in a little bit... and this morning after my shower I looked and they had a little white crust on them like they used to!! He's 11 weeks old now! Isn't that crazy? My boobs are tiny again, though.

Jen. Ooo that's interesting. I wonder how long it takes for your to get the message. I find I can function so much better when i've had a shower.

Sarah, sorry that Darragh is being clingy as well. It's so hard when you don't get enough sleep.

Stacey, glad you are having an amazing time being a new mum, even though youre running on empty with no sleep too. Yay for getting Ava registered

I think I have most of you on Fb, I know I have you Jen. Don't think I have Sarah and Vikki.

AFM gender scan on Saturday for us. I'm on rest at the moment from the doctor for two weeks due to bleeding. So far three days of spotting again, added on to that I had last week. lovely Wish it would sod off and stop worrying me.

 

[sspencer99]

Bloody bleeding like you don't worry enough as it is
Without that as well

Tracey I thought it was last sat I'm so excited for you Hun

Xx

ohmygod had a family day out today...drove up to the lake district only the weather was awful...so we put the walk on the back burner and just headed to a nice pub by lake windermere for lunch only we then got a nail in our tyre which started deflating fast so had to abandon lunch and head straight to a garage...only a little town so they had to order in the tyre we needed....2 hour wait for that....ran in the rain to the nearest cafe...on the plus side Darragh was an angel!! Fed him in the car before all the drama and then in the cafe which was lovely and friendly and didn't mind us being there for ages!!! so family trip disaster but we did laugh about it really!!!

Darragh still being a bit awkward at night time but we have a strategy now and he has started to settle himself in the cot - just has a grumble about it for a while...fx'd tonights ok as i think after today we need a good sleep....btw i'm 30 tomorrow!! haven't really thought about it much with having a baby and everyhting...might hit me tomorrow!! mind you i feel at least 35 at the moment with the lack of sleep so 30 is no big deal!!!!

Stacey - sleep...whats that!! haha!! it does get better and yeah its weird but you just manage....make sure you keep eating and drinking plenty...thats where i went wrong at it took its toll but once i got told off by a mw and started having a bottle of water with me permanently and snacking more things got a lot better!!!

Hi everyone, sorry I've been absent for a while my laptop lead is busted and it broke while I was away up North so I've not really been able to get on - using the home PC at the minute but it's crap AND in the bedroom so not exactly easy to get on to at the best of times. Hope everyone is well. Eden had a cough all last week and was quite bad with it but hopefully we're over the worst.

It's my birthday tomorrow WAHOO and Tracey's Gender scan which is obviously way more exciting. Definitely going to try and get on here so I can see the results!

love to all you ladies and all you gorgeous babies xxxx

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Wait, it's Sarah's birthday tomorrow AND Rachel's?
Did we talk about this last year and I missed it?
Anyway, happy birthday to both of you!!

I don't know why I was thinking Tracey's gender scan wasn't until May 25. I blame baby brain. Yeah. That's it.

Sarah, what an adventure! Great that Darragh was so good through it all.

I keep a bottle of water with us in the diaper bag all the time. Good for me and for Thomas.

 

[sspencer99]

Ohh Sarah glad you managed to have a laugh about it in the end and baby being good makes a bad situation a lill bit better

I drink plenty orb do need to snack more thou

Happy birthday sarah and rachel hope u get spoilt rotten

Good luck for today Tracey can't wait to find out what your having xxxx

[Traskey]

Sorry for being slow.

Sarah, happy 30th birthday for yesterday I hope you had a lovely day Did you manage to get some sleep or was it a poor night?

Rachel, happy birthday for today What have you been up to today?

Stacey, no wonder you are a busy bee with a newborn. I'm amazed any of you find time to pop on here! We love seeing you all though

AFM, gender scan was today. Much nicer than the NHS ones and clearer. So it's two girls for us We were surprised but I always guess wrong so I shouldn't be surprised Team pink

 

[AmaryllisRed]

My gut says two boys, so I'm going to say two girls. Because I thought Ysa was having girls and look how that turned out!

Hey, I was right!!
And how nice for your DH to have daughters.

 

[Traskey]

Well done Jen. I should have used the same logic too! I guess I thought boys as almost everyone I stalk on here has boys but as i'm always wrong I should have just gone for girls!

 

[sept10]

wow where is everyone??
