We made the trimesters pass quickly!

Hi ladies, Happy Belated Easter!!! I hope Tristan and Lucy are getting better.
I still don't have time to drop in as much. When London gets home from daycare all he wants is his mommy and so I still cannot get anything done. I hope you ladies are doing well. I'm having pregnancy brain since going back to work. It seems I keep forgetting something every single day. Today I forgot the plug to my pump so I had to drive all the way back home. I think the stress of it all effected my output as I had a hard time getting enough today. You guys are lucky when your DH takes the baby out for a while and you get a small break. The only time I'm away from London is when im at work. Since DH didnt hold him much during the first 2 months now he cries most of the time his daddy holds him.
So I have a problem. I just can't seem to get back to the groove of bedroom business. Seriously, baby is almost 4 months and I'm still not feeling it. Should I talk to my doctor about that or will it pass? DH and I are definitely not feeling connected.

Hi pink. Sorry you aren't having the best of times. It must be really hard leaving London in daycare.
Dh and I have only had sex twice since Frazer was born. It was good while it was happening but I don't feel like it like I used to. Always too tired by bedtime and always in mummy mode. It'll come back though. Just make sure you can have a cuddle every day . I feel bad that I don't do it often but dh says he doesn't mind. Feel closer to him afterwards though xx

Pink you've just had a baby, don't be too hard on yourself I'm sure your sex drive will come back in good time, we've only had sex 3 times since Archie's been born, it can be hard to find time for each other when there is children involved.

Pink me and oh have only had actual sex once. Try not to stress about it

Lucy had her injections this morning, she hardly cried this time. Katie was with us and said she didn't like it... we did tell her to stay in the car with jon but she wouldn't! Xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Awwww bless her Carly!

I hate injections, Archie has his tomorrow

 

[ab75]

Poor katie lol. Glad Lucy was ok .
Good luck tomorrow Amy xx

I think we've had sex 5 times. I'm just not in the mood!

 

[sethsmummy]

pink i honestly wouldnt worry hun your constantly tired and sex is going to be the last thing on your mind. And i wouldnt be surprised if you dont resent dh a little since you can never get a break which will certainly mean your not wanting sex. I was the same with my dh after seth and again after ethan. We've only dtd twice since coming home from Yorkhill. And not at all from having him to when he went into yorkhill.

Carly im glad Lucys injections went well. is she better now after the pox??

I hope Archie's injections go ok Amy.

 

[Carlyp1990]

Thanks ladies

Yes she's miles better now thanks tara, back to usual cheery self. She's still got her scabs though. I'm really squeamish when it comes to scabs and even just the thought of touching one makes me feel sick so I'm managing quite well... After bath time is the hardest though

We've had a lovely day today, went out to the barbers and ended up buying some chips and goin to sit on the beach for abit then we got icecream before going to the arcade it's been great to have abit of family time xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Sounds like a fun filled day carly

 

[Swtpinkbabi]

Thanks ladies 😊. At least you guys have had some once. I think you're right about the resent making me not in the mood. Most of the time I feel that way about him. I feel so bad, I was so frustrated with London this morning I was begging him to go back to sleep. He's been so fussy the past few days, I'm thinking he is starting his sleep regression. He woke up 3 times this morning and once an hour after I put him to bed last night. He was doing so well with 5-6 hours straight now this. I'm exausted. I still can't get him to take a nap anywhere other than on my chest or in my lap 😥. The lady at his daycare told me she put him in the bed on his side and let's him cry for 5 mins then he falls asleep. I'm thinking BS, pretty sure she just lets my baby cry himself to sleep. I can't do that and it pisses me off that she does it. DH doesnt want to change daycares, but I think it makes baby boy more clingy to me. I love his snuggles after a long day of work, but I feel like I work 2 full time and 1 part time job. Pumping 4-5 times a day is nerve wrecking. Sorry about my rant.
How are you all?

Here's an updated pic of my Peanut. I weighed him yesterday and he only weighs 11 pounds. I'm thinking I should probably get that checked out. At his two month appt he was 10 something. How much should they gain a month?

 

[Mummy to be x]

Omg I'd go crazy shit if someone left my baby to cry themselves to sleep. Stupid cow! So sorry pink your bound to find it difficult sometimes, us mummies run on little sleep so it's normal for our emotions to get high sometimes.

By the way,London is so perfect!

 

[Swtpinkbabi]

Thank you Amy, he's my heart. I know, I'm super crazy bout her doing it but truth is, it will most likely happen anywhere. All the places I visited had babies sitting in some object crying.

 

[ab75]

London is gorgeous.
I wouldn't like it either but you're right, it probably is the norm in daycare/ private nursery settings.
Frazer put on 1lb 5oz in 4 weeks but he had dropped from 90th to just above 75th centile. I thought his weight was fine!! Xx

 

[sethsmummy]

you are right hun.. in private settings this is how its done. I used to hate it when i worked in a nursery and the babies were left to scream to sleep.. i was allowed to stay in the room for 5 minutes but after that i had to leave them to fall asleep by themselves. horrendous.. part of the reason i ended up leaving.
London is absolutely gorgeous hun! xx

 

[ab75]

I lasted 3 days in a private nursery!! A little girl had a dirty nappy but they wouldn't change it as it wasn't "nappy changing time". That was my last day!!!

 

[sethsmummy]

omg are you joking! thats horrendous! Id have just picked her up and taken her poor girl. that nursery should be shut down! I know the one i was at was reported and they had an ofsted inspection soon after.

 

[Mummy to be x]

OMG that is absolutely shocking Amanda!!!

 

[brunettebimbo]

WTF are you serious!? Elijah has to go to nursery when I return to work. I hope this isn't the case
