Things I cannot say out loud....

[divadexie]

I didn't even get to go and get my rats!

Because OH was late, my friend answered the door, which he would not have done if he had left already to collect me, the dog ran away. I spent hours helping look for him and my friend hurt his shoulder so we couldn't go get my rats. Stupid OH

to my mother: get off my back! making comments when i'm in the jarred food aisle (for emergencies when i run out of homemade) about how you'll never feed him that stuff when you have him on wednesdays really irritates me.
so does taking out his dummy every time you see him. he has it when he's tired or grumpy, stop telling me i'm going to affect his speech development! also, if you go in when i'm trying to get him to nap and talk to him, it doesn't mean he's not tired when he smiles!! now he's just going to get overstimulated and overtired

making comments about how it must be so awful to have a skinny mother who lost her babyweight in days is just nasty. i know i'm overweight now, i'm trying to lose it!!

I hate this crap! Why do Mothers and MILs think they have the right to make any decisions at all?

You're nicer then me. If my mother said that to me about the baby food than I would just have to tell her that gosh.. I guess you won't be having him on Wednesday will you...

YOU are his mom.. not her!

Alex please stop scratching. You have a horrible scratch down the side of your face now. I can't make your nails any shorter and scratch mitts keep you awake.

James - I am trying to get you to sleep. Please close your eyes and settle. I would like it if you would stop hitting and kicking me while eating. Thank you for going to your dad so he can walk you up and down the hall. I would love it if you would go to sleep on him instead of me having to feed you tonight. I've been cool with it for 4 months, so please give me a night off. Love you little boy! PS almost every night you are asleep by now. Go to sleep....go to sleep....and stay asleep...

My OH wanted me to give birth at home, in the sauna

To chocolate: Stop being so tasty

 

[Natsku]

Also, to the new BnB: stop being so rubbish

 

[KittenKat]

My OH is pretty laid back and had been to both the other two girls births so was well prepared. He even bought in his kneel sheet from his works van for me, did all the lugging for the midwife. He looked after the other two girls (drinks snacks etc before business started) then just sat on the sofa with me doing my best not to get my waters on him again Then afterwards made cups of tea and did more lugging for midwife. The spare midwife and the trainee were spare parts and just stood out the way

I'm going to be sooo tacky, so I apologize in advance, I'm just facinated!!!

Your girls are SO CLOSE in age (the youngest 2). How old was Rosa when you found out you were pregnant agin? Was the youngest planned? And what a great OH!!! I think I'm far too nervous to do it at home, plus I liked my epidural!

LOL not tacky at all hun.

Rosa was about 12 weeks when I found out, concieved Kara at around 10 weeks. She was not planned, infac other than my son none have been actually planned properly. I have had problems in the past with hormonal contraception so was having to rely on condoms, and as they say it can only take one accident.....and Kara was that accident. Which is funny really as my sex drive was terribly low so it wasnt happening all that often and with the all over the place periods and post partum bleeding it was a bloody miracle, I bled for almost 6 weeks post Rosa, had about a week or two break, then period came in with avengence for just over a week.

Oh and I only tested (wasnt late) because OH joked about us needing an even bigger house because of my "fertility" He made the joke twice and something niggled so I did it while sat in my friends loo and up came the positive.

And he is a good guy, has his bad moments but is very willing to learn

Aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhh!
Get fecking organised woman! Winter is coming, you need heating, sort out tax credits, lose weight, write guest list for party, organise catering, get jenny into a routine, do the washing, make a banana bread (yes folks, he deliberately left the bananas again, knowing I can't bear to throw them out!)

I'm drowning!!! I'm normally so organised and I just can't cope, my OCD is driving me nuts.

 

[Ozzieshunni]

Lettuce. Forget the routine and just follow her lead That's what I'm doing until Alex starts solids. It's just too hard to develop a routine especially around the 4 month growth spurt/sleep regression BREATHE! It'll all be ok

 

[Natsku]

I agree, trying a routine during the 4 month regression will just drive you insane!

 

[Lettuce]

You mean in a few weeks she might actually get better?!!! Like, might nap or self settle, or sleep for more than 2hours?!
I don't expect all, but any of this would b great...

 

[Natsku]

She might! Though it was more like a few months in Maria's case

 

[Emmy1987]

To OH - honey I know you love your job but I really couldn't give a shit about your team meeting and the fancy Excell spreadsheet you made for your teams rota... I change dirty nappies, feed, clean up sick etc all day, spreadsheets are the least of my worries!

To my aunt - stop being such a two faced cow! And you may choose to forget what you and your husband did to me I will NEVER forget, let alone forgive you so yes, I will tell my grandparents exactly what you're like.

Next door - WHY must you hoover at 9:30pm?!! You don't have a job so can't you do it in the day?! And why in your sons room which is next to Daisy's?! We only just kept her asleep! And what the bloody hell are you doing now?? Sounds like you're demolishing walls! Also no I'm not going to put a rusk in LO's bottle! Aargh! And babies cry, doesn't mean she's a grumpy baby, in fact she is very good!

LO - please go back to sleep, I'm suffering from insomnia and I just want to mong out all day. Daddy has a half day today happydance so behave til 2:30 please! Also stop being so damn cute! And PLEASE stop squealing, it drives me crazy and I want to stuff a sock in your mouth lmao.

To me- ffs lose weight, stop being so lazy, get the washing done, clean and sort out the fucking house and think about jobs! Maternity leave ain't gonna last forever.

 

[BrokenfoREVer]

My kitty: I'm so so so so so so so so so so so sorry I sent you off to the vets yesterday. I'm sure your poor side is really hurting

I'm telling us both it was the best thing for you, I don't want you getting ill. Please stop giving me that look when your big collar gets caught on stuff. I feel guilty enough as it is. Thank you for coming to sleep next to me so I can fuss you & know that you're okay.

9 more days, I'm counting for you sweetie.

Argh...more complaints about the inlaws.

We went to my husband's uncle's birthday party. Mind you his mom, dad and sis had watched her the day before while we went to the fair for our anniversary. And they were going to giver her water, again, for hiccups but told me they didn't since i told them last time not to. Anyways, we walk into the party and LO had been dozing in the car, so the sudden noise of the party scared her. She starts crying hysterically so i am trying to calm her down. MIL is in her face talking to her then trys to just take her away from me. I turn away and say, let me calm her first. So she leaves. It just pissed me off though, who tries to take a crying baby from thier mother?! Then his sis comes over and is hovering, talking to her, making faces, etc. She is still upset but calming down so I let her hold her and she starts to stroll through the party with her. I'm getting food and I can still hear her crying and she is starting to get hysterical. I put it down to see, and she calms down when she sees me, but his sis doesn't want to hand her back and continues to walk around with her. I go back to my food and the second I leave she starts screaming. I'm shaking at this point, my hubby says he will get her. He gets her and brings her outside where it is quieter. She is all hot and sweaty now, and his sis follows him, making popping sounds in her face and still talking to her while she is crying. He gets pissed and tells her off, so she was in a huff for a bit. I got to her and held her, she finally calmed down and took a bottle then fell asleep on me. Poor baby girl, my heart was breaking. She slept on me for the rest of the 2 hours we were at the party. I think his sis was irritated she didn't get to hold her the whole time, his parents were fine though, they understood. We are leaving and someone rubs her foot and it instantly wakes her up. Then it takes 20 mins to leave, with his father still hinting that he wants her to stay overnight for like a week...telling us to take a break, get a hotel room, etc. I have had enough at this point, I just want to go. Hubby didn't like my grumbling too much about his family though. I just wanted to get it out.

I really don't like this new-fangled BnB layout..

 

[Ozzieshunni]

Shhhhhhhh! No complaining about the BnB layout in here or this will get locked like all the other ones!

 

[cowboys angel]

It's kinda irritating, but honestly to me, the people on BnB are more important to me than what it looks like. I understand the British (and other) women though that are upset that it's more 'Americanized' tho. Also, I'm worried new people won't be attracted to join. But I guess I'm just adjusting or something cuz it's bothering me much less than it did yesterday.

 

[lisaf]

I can deal with most of the layout issues, but something about the colors is giving me a headache
