AJP- Im not sure when my next scan is....soon i hope!!
Tara- never mind being hormonal....ur a chick...ur allowed to be!! Ouuuch to the poor kid in that clip..... he was in the wrong place at the wrong time!!
Vicky sounds like garbage guts to me. If something is coming out the bottom end, then there shouldn't be anything blocking the way ykwim? Meredith would best answer these questions though I'm a lowly nurse :P with years of experience LOL
Tara hormones are fantastic things NOT!
Me... well things are going okay today. Took myself to Big W to get Matilda all sorts of tights for winter, all black & white stripes & red & black stripes. I'm a punk from the old school days so I love the new kids punk fashion... I'm now living vicariously through my child's clothes, how funny is that?
thanks girls for all the moral support. I have felt like I have had you guys barracking from the side lines, and it has kept me going. Absolutely shattered now, but gotta do it all again tomorrow. truck arriving at 8am. in for a HUGE day. but then it will be all done. Aston has been an absolute legend today. god love him.
hope everyone is well sorry havent been on much, so i will do personals later!!!
DP's sister had her 2nd bub yesterday James Benjamin 9lbs 13oz and he is 4 weeks early!!! she had c/s...so we r off to see them today cant wait to see a newborn again..hope i dont get too clucky lol wont b able to hold him though cos he is in icu cos he isnt feeding
I just dont feel like i want to be a mum today. DD has been so fantastic up until now but the last week or so has just been so draining. i feel like she just doesnt want to be around me. ive posted stuff about her crying when i go to put her to sleep...and its just not getting any better. she used to love laying next to me for a nap and now she just cries. Same with when i hold her when she's tired.
i just feel kinda useless, everyone's saying i'm a good mum and DH says he's so proud of the way i keep ploughing through DD's tough times, but i just feel like i have nothing left. i am constantly swearing under my breath when she gets all grizzly - i know it's silly, but i take it personally.
I'm finding that even though i get a whole nights sleep (pretty much), i am still so tired during the day - which is probably why i cant deal with her grizzling the way that i should.
Weeks 6-14 were fantastic, now i feel like she's never going to be the happy baby she was, and i kinda miss that.
Has anyone else found problems around this 15wk mark?
*hugs* Tara its soooo hard. I have definately found the last few weeks trying. Jovie is starting to really fight going to sleep and its so frustrating when they don't sleep but are very tired.
I have found I need a break to rest for the day, thats not unusual at all. I can't deal with the grizzles if I haven't had a rest myself.
Have you read the book "wonder weeks" Its fantastic the way it puts their development in place with what they are doing. I just realised Jovie (week 19) is spot on with distractions and things influencing her sleep. She really needs no distractions to sleep now, and if I go near her she takes heaps longer.... frustrating because she used to love sleeping next to me. So try a few different things you haven't done before like patting her off out of eyesight etc to see if its just a developmental thing she is doing.
Tara Chelsea is being exactly like Evie..... cries and winges... and i get all cranky and go off my nut at her.... then burst into tears myself. She doesnt mean it...but its tough....she cant talk and i sometimes have no idea what is wrong.
Thanks Christy and Kim, I hope this is just a phase and it passes soon...i want my baby back. I was trying to explain how i feel to DH. it's like when DD is happy i'm happy and then remember that there's this "issue" with her crying at sleep times. it's so silly of me. I watched a show today about a 1yo who needed a liver transplant and her body was rejecting the liver and she needed a new one and the mother was so distraught and praying. i cried for her, and thought 'what the hell am i complaining about! ive got it so easy'...i guess its hard to remember that at the time
i was watching that show today and i was thinking wow im so lucky to have such a healthy DD...im glad the little girl pulled through though poor thing had to have the 2 operations
Emelia is the same sometimes she will go down easy then other times i know shes really tired and she will fight it...so hard not to get frustrated..i feel terrible if i get angry cos she is so innocent..hopefully it is just a phase and will pass like u said
Taralee, yup Lugh is a couple of weeks older than Evie ( love the name, same as my sister ) and yes he went through a stage ...and possibly still is ...I thought it was going to NZ, but he is sooo easily distracted even now ...christy, the wonder weeks is dead on ...I am doing the patting and it seems to be working .....
Tried everything tonight. Her scream is just horrible, it really sounds like she is in pain and she just wont let me comfort her. it just breaks my heart.
Eventually i put her on the bed to re-wrap her, as i put her dummy in her mouth her eyes rolled up like she was already asleep (this always happens but i usually pick her up and pat her/put her in her cot) - but this time i just left her on the bed, leaning over her and sshh'ing. She went to sleep in about 2 seconds.
I guess this is just another technique to add to my arsenal for next time.
Fantastic!!!! I hope it works next time for you Tara. I'm going mental with the screaming atm... I want to cuddle her to sleep and co-sleep but she will have none of that.
Chelsea can ROLL!! Yay for my bubby girl finally!!
However im worried she will do it during the night and stop breathing or something... how do i stop her from doing this?? It is cute tho... she been sleepin on her side... one knee tucked up... one straihgt and her hands under her neck.....
Having so much trouble with Emelia in the car now she screams and screams and as soon as u turn around she will stop and give u a huge grin! was very frustrating on the way to city (i was in the passenger seat) i was constantly turning around popping her dummy in then she would scream as soon as i turned back around...its been happening the last few days, she used to be fine in the car ive even tried hanging toys on her car seat (plays with them for a little while then chucks them) im dreading having to go in the car by myself :s lol
