not much happening here, I finish work next week and am sort of looking for another one, it just have to be worth putting both girls back in childcare financially and emotionally.
Lori- Siticky vibes your way and get well soon what couple of days.
Nic- how you feeling today?
MOM- Again GL for your mamagram today.
Well working tonight so wont get much net time later so thought i'd pop in now. Taking DD1 swimming this mo then not much planned til work at 4pm so a pretty boring day ahead. Lots of house work to be done though.
Lauren - At least Rob's parents will know now. I am sure that one day they will just be happy to know about Ash and not care exactly how they found out.
Lori - Wow, you have had a rough couple of days. Big to you and your new little bundle. I hope it all works out.
MoM - for you today.
Nic - I hope your is getting better.
Hoody - it is supposed to be housework day here today as well, but so far not much has been done...
I just can't get over how much Olivia has changed lately. She seems to have grown about 5cm overnight and is now pretty much refusing to crawl even though she is still falling over a lot while waddling around on her feet. She is a real little bossy person now, not just my baby
Ok got a reply AT LAST - Today was driving me nutts!!!
She said - Thankyou Lauren, Please leave this with us for a little while.
Im SOOO happy. it was a very polite response and it means she is obviously doing a responsible thing and dealing with it as a family, im presuming going to his parents... At least she didnt blast my head off.... My letter pretty much said in 5 pages in a mature context of what an arse rob has been so you would think they are going to give him a good talking too. It so helps that theres 2 other babies in the family they will relate somewhat....and if shes said how important family is im hoping they will want to talk to me again. God wouldnt you just LOVE to be a fly on the wall at Robs house!!!!! man that would be some good watching! I just wish i knew when they are planning on spreading the word.
I brought a new mobile today so its on full charge and awaiting his message...lol
Got woken up at 4.30am this Mo to DD1 climbing into our bed crying saying her tummy hurt. She was asking her her blanky so went to find it in her room and she'd thrown up everywhere. All up the curtains, between the wall and bed, the carpet as well as all over every piece of bedding Just as i got back to my room to give her a spare blanky she threw up in our bed. What a start to the day. She has just gone to sleep on the couch and its 6am so i think i should just stay up for the day. Knowing my luck if i go to bed now Molly will wake any minute.
Really hope its not a bug but i dunno she was been sick last weekend then it disappeared as fast as it came only to start again now. Poor lil munchking has really bad tummy cramps.
Hi girls,
I went for my scans yesty,hurt somewhat,but i couldn`t find anything out while i was there,their not aloud to discuss results.I have a Doctors appointment on Monday morning,I think it will be ok.Well i hope so i feel very teary though & DH & i have been fighting........over stupid things i guess.
Lori-Hun, i hope your bub sticks for you, try to take it easy,Lori.
Hi to everyone,i have to drop off my eldest son to high school they have part day- Teachers Strike agian......
I will come back tonight if i get the chance. Sorry i cant do the personal to all.
Lauren: Thats a good polite response. It would be a big thing to take in.. I hope they continue to be polite about it.
Susan: I know when we found my lump we fought over silly things to. you are both stressing without even realising just how much stress you are under. kwim?
Hoody: what a start to the day!! just think it an only get better ( I hope)
I am feeling better today just tired. Olivia and Jacob are both unwell now. At least the worst bit (which isn't even that bad) only lasts 24 hrs
Lauren- Yay on getting a response. Short and sweet but at least it was polite.
MOM- Hope you feel better soon hun and GL for your drs appt.
Well DD1 is still been sick. Every 20-30mins so assuming its a bug Just hope Molly doesnt get it too. It also means no day off for me today (she goes to DC on a fri but not today) She is still drinking lots of water and sleeping in between so it could be worse but when she is awake she cries saying "help me mama my tummy hurts"- breaks my heart.
Not looking forward to today but Molly is still asleep and its 8.25. At least someone got a sleep in.
Nat hugs sweet your morning sounds as stressful as mine.
Miss Loren had a fever over night and was still sick this morning. She woke screaming at 5am this morning with a 38.5 temp. I gave her panadol and she went back to bed. Then I took Sara is daycare and Loren just seemed really out of it. So off I took her to the doctors (I actually had my 18wk apt sceduled) and just as I sat down in the surgery Loren had a febrile convulsion. Thank goodness I was at the doctors and not on the highway. Anyways the receptionist rushed her into my doctors room and there was another patient there. I apologised to the patient then he got up and started abusing me and the doctor..F flying everywhere whilst my daughter was having a fit. Can you blieve it??? To top it off Sara had blood in her poo this morning and DH is away for work. Thankfully Loren's temp has come down for now and she is sleeping on the floor next to me.
Nic - i hope you kiddies get better.
Lauren - Glad you have a response.
Hi to everyone else!!!
Daycare just called and they have a spot for Loren as of next week...I so wasn't ready for that one today
Bek - That must have been so scary but thank goodness you were already at the doctors. I hope little Miss Loren is feeling better when she wakes up. to you both.
We have had a lovely day here, we went to a new craft activity place where the kids are put into smocks and told to paint the walls - it is new and we were the only ones therem Maria had a field day and I just stripped Sofia down to her nappy and let her go, she had finger painting, oatmeal dough making, drawing, dancing and played with the toys - now they are very tired.
I have dealt with nothing but spew and poo all day long and feel so nauseous myself like i dont know weather i need the loo or a bucket (sorry TMI) Hoping i'm just tired and drained but something tells me i'm in for a yuk night Molly is off her food and reallly irritable too so i wont be suprised if she starts soon too. One of the girls from my playgroup called and 2 other kids have come down with tummy bugs *sigh* so at least i know its nothing we've eaten. I hate tummy bugs i can cope with DD1's asthma and allergies etc but this just drains me.
Bek- What a morning you had too. Poor Sarah and Lauren. I hope they both get better soon.
