The official cerazette missing period support thread!! *NAME CHANGE*

[annanouska]

see andrew is 40 and he doesn't want to be an "old" dad. So I feel there is a rush here. Sophia doesn't need a sibling,mits always nice ( if they get along....) but not a requirement!

I would love another but i really think it would be hard for money and time plus a space! Also im worried if I had th same labour and post birth issues. Tbh I always thought everyone had 2 plus so just one seems alien and I find mys,f wondering its ok to jut have one Marcus s high needs recently and I've put so muh effort in I dunno how'd manage

 

[kix11]

Well you're still young Samie no rush just wait until it feels right if it ever does! I am really excited about this baby but there is also a part of me that thinks oh shit how wil I cope!

Honestly just a few months ago I couldn't imagine it I always thought I would wait until Aaron turned two before we started thinking about another one but something just clicked and I suddenly thought why wait. It was when he hit 18 months and is so independent I just suddenly felt the urge to do it again!! And John agreed straight away so here we are 2 months later!

Feeling guilty for eating that goats cheese sandwich xx

 

[Samie18]

i'm worried the time will never come because i have no desire for it! I desperately wanted Sophia for like 10yrs but never thought it would be so rough then difficult when she arrived it really put me off =o(

 

[betty14]

I think that if/when your ready that desire will return! I think it's natures way of spacing our children enough so we can cope

Anna my aunt and uncle have adopted a lite girl who will be 3 in nov and have a20 month old who they conceived using ivf.... My uncle is 49! I know it's each to their own but I don't think your oh will be an old dad even if you wait another year or 2!

Kix try not to worry about the goats cheese, I'm sure it's fine! If you are really concerned call your mw

My hybby was 39 when we had brandon n 50 when we had ollie and he's the best dad in the world. He has lots of patience and life experiences really do make a difference. I'm 37 now n had the kids at 24, 26, 31 and 35. Sam you'll know if and when you want another don't stress you're doing a great job with Sophia x

 

[annanouska]

honey we have the same age gap between hubbies hehehe (I think? Reading that 13 yrs?) I remember how much my mil disapproved at first!

Betty, I don't think he will be old either,meh male pride I think.

Kix the sandwich will be ok....what if u didn't know yet?

Samie, if u don't want another now or ever its up to you feeling pressured would cause resentment and may leave you more susceptible to thing like pnd maybe? . Just wait and see what you feel right. Sophia was a hard pregnancy, hard baby but probably the best behaved toddler going I had a relatively easy pregnancy , horrible birth, the easiest newborn and baby ever ( I oly really realise that now) but he's become a harder older baby/toddler. An old lady told me every child has a bad phase, be it baby, toddler, child or teens at some point they do. You could have a totally different time if you did it again but it's really up to if you want another not just what people tellmunoru feel guilty about.

Betty, how's the crafting? I've got some stuff to do the advent Calemder...not even made him a top for Halloween yet. Dunno if I will or just leave his trousers x

 

[betty14]

Crafting is going well, I've got a couple more Xmas presents to make and I bought the bits to make Halloween and Xmas hair bows

How are you going to do the advent calendar?

Xxx

 

[annanouska]

I made some strips and put on a panel. I'm then putting that on a snowman....it's huge! It's also wonky and I was going to scrap it but the fabric was dear so it will do. How will U do yours? X

 

[betty14]

I'm not making her an advent calendar she has a wooden one that lights up

How's the foot feeling? Are you managing to rest it at all?

Xxx

 

[kix11]

Hiya everyone,

Betty does the advent calendar have little drawers to put things in? Aaron has a wooden sleigh with little drawers we had it out last year but I didn't fill it with anything but this year I am trying to think of ideas!

The drawers are tiny! Need to start thinking are you filling yours with anything?

Aaron was upset this morning when I left him at nursery, he's not been like that for ages not sure what was up with him I hate him being upset. I rang an hour later and they said he stopped crying in about 5 seconds and ate all his cereal and has been telling everyone about our cat (his best friend)! Phew hate the thought of him not being happy and I have to work late tonight boo

xx

 

[betty14]

Hey kix yes it has drawers, last year I bought Swarovski crystals and a key, I put one crystal in each drawer and the key in Xmas eve then I made it into a hanging santas key, this year I think I might put craft bits in each one and if it's too big make a little token to put in the drawer that she can swap for the item

As bless him wonder what he was upset about, I'm glad he settled quickly tho! Xxx

 

[hay246]

hi all, glad everyone is good, think i am definitely set on waiting until Allister starts school, or at least near to that time, i want to have everything in the house /garden done completed and a few outstanding things paid off and to feel like i don't have to rush back to work cause of money. he is having his introductory hour in nursery friday morning, he really doesn't like going to people he doesn't see often, he won't even go to my brothers as he doesn't see them much, so i am dreading it, but i am just going to send him for 2 hours a week to get him used to it, and to socialise with other kids, as he really does just like to be on his own and amuse himself when other kids are there he just goes all shy and won't do anything bless him! x

 

[annanouska]

I'm a terrible mummy and will put mini organic cereal bars (they are the diddy ones), 50p for his money box and once or twice a week a few chocolate buttons he is a fruit addict but white chocolate buttons can work wonders for bribery (ie physio!)

Can I just have a proud mummy moment it doesn't happen often for us.....

1. He went to soft play twice last week and played with other children and did t attack or bite anyone

2. He has had two weeks of excellent nursery reports now with no biting and he's been really good.

3 we have had no dummy except for nap and nighttime for 3 weeks

Il not hold my breath on biting as he has stopped before then gone back to him. He got bit twice by somebody this week. Obv I was sad for hi. But just so relieved it wasn't the other way around again.

Il give you all a laugh...they commented today how he had done so many full dirty nappies today. Forgot I'd given him several dried prunes this morning to snack on while we had bfast oooops!

Daisy 's Callander sounds great. I love the cat telling tale for nursery. Hay, I hope the induction goes well.

My foot is sore but getting better. I got to rest it at work

 

[Samie18]

Fab news on Marcus....a little bit of discipline goes a long way and they soon learn wrong and right.

Hope your foot improves quickly it sounded terrible!!

I took my fat butt back to slimming world tonight not ready for it but i needed to go back to gain control and be ready! feeling motivated sad thing is i'm 1 stone heavier than when i was full term preggers =o(
Maybe i need to get pregnant to be so ill again and lose weight j/k

xx

 

[annanouska]

Well ive been back on wagon for 3 weeks....fat wagon more like just not been motivated but I am going to try now even tho its holiday in a few weeks.

Samie maybe u could have another AND bf and u would be super slim tho Betty said u get the munchies :-/

It's hard when u have a little one at times as I spend all my time checking he's ok hubby ok I don't sort myself out x

 

[betty14]

That's fab Anna! Go Marcus!! And it's not terrible to put those things in his calendar ill prob put a few choc coins in Daisy's too!

Lots of women say they loose loads of weight bf but I didn't totally tho opposite I was sooooooo hungry! But I produced sooooo much more milk than I needed too so maybe that's why?

I'm back on the wagon too samie slow and steady I've lost 2.5 lbs so far I wish I'd weighed myself at the end I have no idea what I weighed!

It's totally miserable here today rain rain and more rain!

Xxxx

 

[Samie18]

[hay246]

[kix11]

I went like a stick insect with breastfeeding I had to honestly eat twice as much to keep the weight on I went to a size 6/8 I was a 10 before Aaron.
