Quiet in here today.....
So I was supposed to go see my clinical psych on Friday and they cancelled 1 hour before as the dr was sick. It's been almost a month since I saw her and I can really tell. I can't stop my head from thinking. Finding it hard to do things and even though Kaitlyn pretty much sleeps through the night I am finding it hard to getting any sleep. I check on her like 10 times some nights.
Now that it looks like I will be returning to work full time in Feb my brain is working overtime with questions like; is this abandonment, what will they feed her at child care, will they leave her all day if she's crying etc etc. I know that deep down it is probably the right thing for me to do mentally, and I know that a ccc would not be so popular if they were c#%p, but I just can't slow down my brain.
Other than drinking a few glasses of wine every night ~ any suggestions?
My GP has doubled my PND medicine dose as he thinks my ever thinking mind is part of me coming out of the depression. After two days I am back to the beginning with the symptoms of feeling nauseous, morning sickness like symptoms etc....
BBL - Katy crying......AGAIN.

Quick question ladies.
Does anyone know where to buy the Pur teats, the wide neck ones without the little ridges and thingys on them. Just a plain old Pur teat.
My SIL needs one for her baby as this is all he'll take and she only has one.
Thank ladies!
BBL.

You're all up early today!
Shazz, Vic's pretty clever too!
Leanne, they should feed her what you ask, unless food is included in the price, then they should tell you what they're providing. Shouldn't they? Are you going back to your job in town? or did you find a closer one? Is this the SIL with the worst preg and delvery on earth and now she's asking for help? Hope she finds some though. Where does she live? The huge chemist in Penrith is usually pretty good for stuff like that. You know in the main street. The old Tony Fergusons one.
Nat were were 9th May and 7lb2oz so not too far off, think Shazz is closer though.
LOL Vic. Good on ya that's a good idea, but Cam doesn't even want to speak to them. He picked up our EH holden from there and left my car, but left the keys inside. Instead of going and picking up the key he's going to take the spare next week on night shift, I'll take him to work and he'll pick the car up in the middle of the night. What is she doing this time? Hope the kids were ok last night.
We went out too last night and after very few sleeps during the day (well there's too much to look at in town) madam Dargon REFUSED to go o sleep. She was up until 11, but was so tired she managed to go to sleep in the very bumpy, noisy EH. Had an average night but she was so tired she only fed from one side and refused the other as she wanted to sleep. So that meant she was awake at some stupid hour and got her sleeps mixed up.....she's just woken again after only 20 minutes.....here we go again. This has to get better sooon.
Picked up my urine collection bottles - OMG they're huge! LOL Turns out I've got 3x24hrs ones instead. Won't be going out much the next 3 days LOL.

Kim - yes it is the same SIL, but the problems were mine not hers. With my PND I was unable to 'think outside the square' and put myself in anyone else's shoes. I was also blowing things way out of proportion. Now that I am on meds (and stronger ones), I realise that now.
Now that I am being more empathetic things are going better for me, and for other people in general.
I am still having my bad days, and lots of them, but with the treatment I am getting things will hopefully eventually improve.
RE work, yep its my old job in town. It would mean dropping Katy off at 6ish and picking her up at 6pm. On days when Mark is working an early or late she could be dropped of / picked up later, so it would not be every night.

Aww I have so much to catch up on!!
Nat: Does Em go ok with the floaties? I have floaties for Jayden but I didn’t have them blown up enough and they just fell off him. I use a seat for him now so he kicks his legs in that or I just hold him and encourage him to use arms and legs. Have you dunked Em yet? I watched most of Tripping Over…..MMM Daniel MacPherson MMM hehehe. DP was just saying last night we need to get a highchair for Jayden….don’t know why seen as he isn’t on solids yet LOL (I think he just wants Jayden to sit at the table with us while we have dinner LOL) I agree with us sharing our bubs milestones…..compared to other forums I know (and heard of) we are the least b****y….so get as soppy as you want cause we’d be lost without you too!! Mango shocks me too being on the list, I thought it would be too rich
Jemima: How is Jesse going? I hope he gets better soon! I don’t give Jayden top up feeds….actually I rarely ever did, there was only a couple of times that I did and he woke up too much and thought it was play time so I stopped doing it. Jayden now has his last bottle at around 8.30pm and asleep by 9pm then usually wakes again about 6.30am and I BF him. I can’t remember if you have said already but are you BF’ing or FF’ing Jesse? My supply has dropped dramatically now but before that I noticed he wasn’t sleeping through but as much as I didn’t want to admit at the time as soon as I gave Jayden a bottle he started sleeping through again.
Beck: Any sign of AF yet? How is Jovi going in her cot? Is she sleeping the whole night in there?
Kim: I was talking to my CHN about solids and she said to introduce one food at a time and I am pretty sure she said leave it a week before trying anything else in case of allergies (so you know what causes the allergies). Congrats to Cam on his weight loss! LOL @ ringing your Mum hehe. I thought about joining ABA but too late now haha I thought the same thing thought that they would be more of a cult LOL. Darcy isn’t the only food virgin…..Jayden is too. SIL#3 gave Jayden an arrowroot biscuit last night….I got it off him before he had any..but I was so angry at her as she knows I don’t want him having anything just yet and she continued to give it to him about 4 or 5 times!! Does Darcy sleep in her own room or in yours?
Vic: Adam sleeps fantastic!! Not sure about the 5am wake up but still he sleeps so much! Before I had Jayden I thought I would hate being a SAHM that’s why I told work I’d take 6mths leave……I really surprised myself how much I enjoyed it…I thought I would be bored LOL…..not even close!
Shazz: OMG at having rheumatiod arthritis! I hope things go well at the specialist
Sara: How did your Nan’s 70th go? I know the family had already seen her but was the party still a surprise for her? I hope you get some photos of you and Briley in your new dresses!
Leanne: Don’t feel guilty about wanting to go back to work or putting Katy in CC. Can you put her in family day care? Jayden is in FDC but its my SIL that does it so I know he is in good hands….. She will probably love day care anyway, being around other kids. Has she settled down for you? I don’t know what PND is like either but can you try doing yoga or meditation or something to relax your mind? Just a thought
Sheree: Big :hug: to you hun!! I really hope everything goes ok!!
Still looking around for the ornaments……the Big W ones I have figured out what I didn’t like about them….they don’t have the year on them….They had a blue santa hat with baby’s first xmas but Jayden’s head was too big for it LOL. We got a learning puppy from Kmart sent up from Melb as we couldn’t get it up here….Jayden is already playing with it….I was meant to be putting it away for xmas!!
I have been busy with work this week….Although I finish at 2pm I didn’t pick Jayden up from day care until 3.45pm on Thurs….I was going to have a sleep but ended up going to a friends place for a while.
A few of you have been talking about the car seats being turned around….Jayden is still quite happy with the seat backwards…he’ll only cry if he is hungry really. Is there a safety issue in turning the seat around too early? Or is it just they need to have good head control?
Well that’s it from me I think…might be back later
Hope you all had a great weekend

We switched Jovi's seat around on Friday I think it was ... she loves it! Plus it's so much easier to get her in and out, especially when she's alseep ... no other strap to contend with anymore ... woohoo ...
Still no sign of AF. Had the blood test done on Friday. Instead of ringing my dr I rang pathology to see if they'd sent the results over yet and the guy just told me that they came back negative.
Will prob give my dr a ring tomorrow to confirm but if true ... don't ask me what's going on! lol
I just read on the net (another forum I think it was, some yahoo think that I googled) that a few women on there had had negative blood results yet WERE pregnant! One woman even reckoned that she didn't show up pregnant on the blood work until she was six months (bit hard to believe I know), yet obviously she was (u/s 's etc).
Oh well ... will have to see what my dr says I guess.
I know I'm late, and I had some spotting last week ... very confusing.
As far as sleeping in the cot, when I get her in there (which can be a task sometimes if she's not fully asleep when I put her in), she'll sleep all night mostly. She has a few little cries early in the morning when she starts to get a bit restless and the dummy falls out, but she's pretty good. If she'd keep her hands under the blankets she'd probably sleep longer (her hands were freezing last night ... lol)
Talk to you guys soon ...

Evening Ladies,
Well the party was pretty good. I looked GREAT if i might say so myself. I got my hair done and i looked awesome. Briley wore her pretty dress but was tired and slept most of the time. We did wake her up once to get photos with us all. I will load some pix on the computer soon but i left my camera in my mums bag.
But my nan had a ball anyways. As did i til then end of the night when Brent decided that Brento(brent's alter-ego (sp?)) wanted to come out and play. Which ended the night in an arguement!:angry:
Went and got the capsule removed and Briley's car seat installed through the ambo's on friday. I wanted the seat to be turned facing the front but the ambo fella reckons not till they are at least 9kg or crawling. I was a little dissappointed but she is happy with it anyways. I really don't think she is that far off 9kg anyways. A month maybe.
Beck - Wow thats weird about your AF. Are you freakin now? Are you still b/f?? Maybe your body is still adjusting....Keep us posted anyhow.
Kim - Whats the urine thingy for?? When i was pregnant i had to pee in a big jug thing cause they wanted to monitore my pee for protein cause my BP was going up. It was'nt fun i tell you. I just pee'd into a glass jar and then poured it into the jug through a funnel. Nothing fun about the whole situation!!
Well i am pretty darn tired. Went fishing out to my uncles hut today for the day. Was good to get away and fish and relax. I never caught anything mind you!
Ok...bedtime....
Hope all is well with everyone and their bambino's...
Nite nite

I hate Teeth ???? what are they good for ???? ok so maybe he actually needs some eventually but i have been up all night and i kid you not when i say all night and now lucky me i get to go to work for 6 hours straight no break while my dimwitted husband gets to play stay at home dad for the day last night when i asked for some help with ryan he had the hide to say to me that i should deal with him as he has him all day tomorrow i tell you he'll be lucky if i come home ... angry lady lives here today catch you all later
-
Fair enough angry lady! Hope you're ok today.....is he at least driving you????
Sara, one of my kidneys started to 'malfunction' during pregnancy and now thier running heaps of tests to find out why and what damage done. It has something to do with the preecclampsia the specialist thinks. Glad your party was good. I'm not fond of alter egos either....and Cam was in the navy 10years so you can imagine.....
Tania Darcy has been in her own room since 8 weeks old. But it's more like with me in the spare bed lately. I don't want to take her into ours.
Vic I think Darcy has cut herself down to2 sleeps during the day. I got 10 minutes this morning so might ditch that one all together.
Well the IL situation has gotten so bad we had to go an buy a new phone yesterday with caller ID!
-
Sara - no not b/f anymore. Jovi's been on the bottle since she was 6 weeks cos she had lost a lot of weight and gone back down to her birthweight. She's about 7 kilos now though! Not really freaking ... have to ring my dr after lunch but I prob am NOT pregnant. I've got PCOS and had to take clomid to get preggas with Jovi, so I have a feeling that that may have sometime to do with it (i used to go 2-3 months without AF, then bleed for like 3-4 weeks!!! EXTREMELY annoying to say the least ... hope it doesn't come back like that though).
Will keep you guys posted ...

Hi Ladies,
Hope you all are doing very well. I have been so busy lately planning Katerina's Christening. It is all happening on Sunday!! After that is done then we can all relax.
Did everyone have a nice weekend? I hope we get some consistent sunshine for those nice stroller walks. Has not been too good here in Sydney.
I also have lost all my pregnancy weight!! Finally after slaving at the gym and eating well it has happened. Now I can go to the gym to actually enjoy myself instead of killing myself HA!!!
It is nice to get back to normal and wear decent normal clothes!!!
xxxooo

Beck: I can't wait for Jayden to be the right weight so I can turn his seat around!! I hate trying to get him out asleep and that strap is in the way!!
Sara: Hurry and put those pics up!! I can't wait to see them!! I am lucky with DP he doesn't really have an alter ego....and he doesn't drink all that much (even when he does, you can't tell anyway)I hope Brent made you brekki in bed to make up for it hehe
Shazz: Big :hug: to you!! Jayden's teeth are threatening to pop through again but I'm not up all night thank god!! Grr @ DH for not getting up I would have screamed at him until he did if I had to work and he didn't. I hope your day at work isn't too bad for you!
Kim: Can you put Darcy in her room and let her cry it out if she won't settle for sleep? I know it works for Jayden sometimes...other times he works himself up too much and won't sleep anyway, but more times it works. I would be lost without caller ID....I hate private numbers though haha.
Angelique: Congratulations on the weight loss!!! I still have about 7kgs to go but I haven't been trying to lose it yet....Good luck with the Christening on Sunday, we still have to organise Jayden's!
Well its Monday again and for the last 6mths that hasn't meant anything to me...however now it does its the start of a new week of work!! I really hope I get into it soon, all I keep thinking of is things I could be doing at home if I didn't have to work.....even though we all know very well I wouldn't have done it if I was still on leave and I only have to work 4hrs a day at this stage so its not like its the whole day! I was so upset with DP yesterday as he was playing on the computer pretty much all day whilst I looked after Jayden (who was extremely whingy yesterday). The only time I got a "break" was when I gave Jayden to him while I cooked dinner!! He didn't work all weekend either and doesn't start til midnight tonight so why couldn't he have done something more??
I better get dressed and go to work.....Have a great day girls
oxoxox

Baby - I have PCOS as well. I took Metformin for Kaitlyn to be 'created'
I used to go 100 days without AF one month and then 20 the next. Frustrating isn't it....?
Do you find that you have lots of struggles with it. ie moods and weight issues.
My dr thinks that some of my PND may stem from the PCOS 'cause of the hormonal imbalances etc. Have you heard of this?
Does anyone know anything about AR formula. I was reading on anor post that it is best to use not warmed up, as it thickens when it is warm and it really should do that when it hits bub's tummy. I can't see it mentioned on the formula tin. Anyone ideas?
