We made the trimesters pass quickly!

Oh my word UB! That's awful, I don't buy the shop brand flea treatments I get the vets one, they're pricey but worked for my cats.

Fleas are awful I went crazy when my kitten got them i threw my bedding out and everything! You can get those carpet and furniture sprays from Pets at home they are good, I found a pupae dead on my carpet from the spray. Gross!

 

[Mummy to be x]

I think pupae is the right word, it's part of the flea cycle x

We get the front line stuff but it's cheaper to buy online no cats here, cat fleas are horrid. We buy wormer online too.

If you're getting fleas frequently even after treatment they could be in the house etc. Much harder to kill off!!

Bruno (my dog) had fleas a few weeks back... I only found 3 on him but within 30 mins oh had been to the pet shop and got flea shampoo, flea spray for the house, flea collar and flea tablets lol. I hoovered the whole house before he got back and then I washed the bedding and sprayed the whole house while he showered the dog. I felt disgusted! We haven't had any since xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

The stuff I buy from the vets is fleas, worms and ticks treatment all in one, definitely worth the money.

 

[Ziggie]

Since my post my other half just told me he pulled 3 ticks off one dog and has treated them!!!! What are the chances

 

[UniqueBeauty]

I got the spray, tablet and collar. I'm not taking any chances lol. They are locked in by the front door and have a window to get out and in if they want to go outside. I haven't seen any feaces, eggs or have any jump on us which is strange.


Jayden was in bed by 6:30 again tonight and if it wasn't for Hollyoaks I'd be so bored! X

 

[Mummy to be x]

If your cats go outside it's likely he's picking them up while he's out and about UB.

I love hollyoaks!! Not watched this weeks yet I think I will catch up now you've mentioned it

Some good news! From what they said little Riya is ahead of the curve compared to other babies at her gestational age. She needs no help breathing except for the c-pap machine which is only to prevent her lungs from callapsing. All her vitals have been really stable so far. She is for sure one strong little baby .

They are currently treating her for jaundice, which is expected for premies. After only a few hours of treatment her levels are already down!

 

[ab75]

Thats excellent news kiwi. Glad Riya is doing so well xx

 

[Carlyp1990]

Kiwi that's amazing! She really is a strong little lady... sounds like she takes after her strong mummy!! I'm so glad to hear shes doing so well xxx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Wow kiwi that's amazing! I'm so glad she's doing so well x

 

[UniqueBeauty]

Brilliant news Kiwi, I've been wondering how you've both been. Very strong girl, as are you.

I had to pay a full months rent today to get my landlord off my back, the threatened me with a warrant so I had no choice. They don't understand I have 14 working days until my income support is set up then it all gets backdated. I have to go in and see liberata AGAIN because she's told me to. They just won't understand I can't hurry income support lol. Greedy. x

 

[ab75]

Thats crap ub. Will you manage to get that back when your claim is backdated? I'm guessing not, as long as they'll have been paid they won't care xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

That is rubbish UB but that's landlords for you, all their bothered about is getting their money x

 

[UniqueBeauty]

Nope unfortunately I won't get that money back. OH said don't worry they won't kick you out bla bla so he doesn't know I've borrowed the money. I think secretly he wants that to happen so he can get me up to Preston! He's already been going on about me going up there for Christmas and if I give birth up there then it's okay.. even his mum said oh just bring the hospital bag and your notes, you probably won't though.. I don't want to go so close to the due date but looks like I'm going to be dragged there at this rate. Theres over 20 of them up there for Christmas and here is just my Mum, Sister, Nan and Grandad and he still thinks it's okay to leave and come home boxing day. Makes me very sad the thought of them alone on Christmas x

 

[Mummy to be x]

Aw UB that's not fair at all, not so close to your due date. We usually have a huge family get together on Xmas day but I will be staying at home this year, just me OH and Madeleine and bump (or baby of I'm lucky lol) there's no way I'd travel so far when I will be heavily pregnant and I'm set to have my birth here. Your OHs been unfair

I think for him to shrug off the rent and say 'don't worry you won't get chucked out' is appauling! This is rent we are talking about and you have his son at home and are pregnant with his baby! I'd love to kick your OH up the ass! Sorry x

 

[ab75]

Sorry your oh is being an arse ub. He should be worrying about your rent, like mummy said, his son and daughter need a house. I wouldn't be travelling that distance at Christmas. Not only in case you give birth but you will be too uncomfortable sitting in the car that long.
We are taking nieces and nephews presents down next weekend and I won't be going back down after that until next year, 2.5 hour drive, I am not risking having this lo down there lol xx

 

[Kiwiberry]

UB that is so horrible . It makes me sad that you have to deal with a landlord like that. It sucks too that you won't see aNY of t g at money back. I know how you feel about leaving your family behind for the holidays, that must be so hard for you .

So daddy got to change Lil Riya first poop diaper! It was so adorable and she was so wiggly!!

 

[Mummy to be x]

Aw kiwi that's amazing he got to change her diaper!

I'm travelling to my mums tomorrow morning for the weekend and it's four hours away I'm dreading been so uncomfortable in the car but once I've made this visit that will be it till after baby is born I think. My sister and dad want me to visit them at the end of the month but they live 5 hours from us I really am thinking it's too far and plus we would have to stay in a hotel and it's not exactly a good option for a pregnant woman lol x
