    Routine is a wonderful thing as long as you don't expect it work no matter what! With all our kids you just can't expect everything to go smoothly all the time!!! I am a morning person and if it don't get done before lunch it just aint gettin done at all - my brain turns to mush at 12!!! I am usually up by 5am though.

    Hope all you gals out there are behaving yourselves - prob not with most of you up the duff or trying!!!

    Am i reading this right halltribe you are expecting 7th in november my god love if your brain goes to much at lunch your doing better than me. Well the one night of sleep was great havnt had it since lol last night was shocker Ella had a bout 4 hours straight the rest was filled with whinging and crying not sure what was going on but she settled herself by midnight much to the releif of DH as he had to be up at 4am to go to work.
    Any way i having trouble with my brother at the moment we arnt talking he has heaps of problems going on in his life mainly with the wife but he blams me for her bad behaviour when she is around me wont bring the kids around becouse i intimidate them with my swearing and yelling at my kids i have 4 so there is a lot of it going on not haivng him in my life really isnt too much drama as he and his wife are more trouble than they are worth it s the kids that suffer my kids miss there cousins but its what he has said to me that i cant get out of my mind i now find myself second guessing my self making sure i dont swear ( we are meat workers it second language) we are middle class people nice house and cars do ok for our selves but he makes out we are red necks i do yell i know this who doesnt i teach kids to swim so i can be a little tough on bigger kids the fuss and stuff about im told i give tough love but people still want me to teach the kids most for 3 or more years now i have heaps of friends and other family i m doubting my self now thats what makes me angry it hard enough in this day to feel good and confident about ones self when you have had 4 kids things are not what they used to be not just body wise but patience and empathy i really tired all the time its a hard job and he just belittles me judges me and point out the things that i do wrong as far as he's concerned. whoo thats feel better sorry im really down about it not that i no longer have him in my life but the things he has said that are damageing other parts of my life

    Maz good luck with all your appointments today hun! I hope all is well. Fingers crossed he will prove to be tougher than they think he is!.

    I actually got some good news on Monday with Mitchie, we had our paed appoint to test how his floppy baby syndrome was going! The paed was really impressed with Mitchie's improvements, he now has instant reflexes, these were delayed by up to 3 seconds when we started, and his muscle tone has improved majorly! So NO more visits to the paed for us!!!! IT has been a long hard 12 moths of appointments and a lot of hard work with physio so we are very happy Also hopefully his next physio appoin should be his last too! So fingers crossed they are as happy with him as his paed was! HE said that it was amazing to see how far Mitchie had come in only 12mts and that we should be very proud of what we have achieved!

    Ok so my boast over i am jsut a very happy and relieved Mummy especially since Little Molly is nearly due!

    Hope everyone has a fantastic day.

    Hiya all, Maz I didn't realize your wee boy maybe has CP. My oldest now 15 has CP. The doctor told me many years ago that my boy would be nothing more than a vegetable, never able to look at me, smile, talk, hold his head up or tongue in. So wrong he was! My boy is a gem and has the biggest smile and will talk your head off, he is still a bit wobbly on his feet sometimes but is a real honey. The one thing I have learnt from doctors reguarding the brain is that is is still an unknown organ and they are really only guessing!! Let me know how you get on and I will be an ear for you if you need it.
