Kim - if that is your eldest DD's only concern then thats a bit different. If you want another baby go for it! I really admire anyone who has a huge family (by choice), I know I wouldn't cope. Gotta ask, do you have someone to help with the cleaning? Do you have a roster for jobs? There were 4 kids in our family and mum never made us do anything around the house. I loved it back then but me and my sisters all struggle juggling the housework now.
believe it or not... im actually getting excited about the thought of having another bub. I KNOW it will be another girls.. manda mayb we trade?? lol yeh prob 2011 here too, wouldnt that be cool. Seeming we will be living close, we can plan it and be preggo buddies
OM - I have arranged for a friend to come over once a week to help out. Just to do things like wash the floors and clean the bathroom, etc. I just don't have time or energy to do that. There were 4 kids in my family too but we had to help out as mum was a single parent for most of the time.
AmandaJ - Hope you get your 6th too. I can't wait for to long though as my age is against me. DF was booked in to get the snip done too lol and now the dr has moved and not informed him of where he is now. Think it is fate lol
I had a pretty crappy V-day - had organised for mum and dad to look after B so DH and i could go to the movies, but she has been shocking lately - very grissly and waking up a bit during the night, so i thought i would be a bad mum if i didnt stay at home with her.
so once again i missed out (why is it us who always makes the sacrifices and miss out on things and never the guys?)
B and i had made a card for DH earlier on in the week, and i made him red love heart shaped pancakes for breakfast, he didnt get me anything - which wasnt a surprise cause he never does unless i nag, and for once i thought i would not mention anything and hope that he surprises me, but nooooooo of course he didnt!
anyways as u can prob tell im a bit down in the dump! im tired, and B is anti dad at the moment so even tho he is home i still have to do everything!
i have decided one is more than enough!
sometimes i feel mean and just wish that i had my life back, i wish i could get up and go to work instead of having to stay home! but as much as i may wish this, if i ever had the choice i would NOT change a thing!
Cheryl - im so glad all went will with V! That really must be a big weight lifted of ur shoulders!!
Hollye - im loving ur tickers that u are comming up with!
How is everyone else going?
B has been a absolute shocker lately and i just dont know what is wrong, she is very grizzly and is again waking up thru out the night - and like u prob read she is anti dad so i have to do everything, which most of the time i dont mind, but sometime i would just like to have a bit of a break and have some me time - but its not happening!
Hopefully its just another growth spurt?!
Oh HJ I know what you mean about us women always being the ones to sacrifice everything. I get so annoyed at DH all the time about that. In the last month he has done things with his mates 3 out of 4 weekends and I've done squat!!! I get sick of sitting at home all the time. Would be nice if just once in a while I got to do things like he does and not have to worry about the kids. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids too and wouldn't change them for the world but its just not fair that he always gets to do things while I can't.
Lara has woken up a few times during the night this week. Last night she woke at 3am and screamed for half an hour. I didnt know what was wrong with her. She wasn't hungry.
Leigh - im sorry that u feel the same as i do sometimes, but it helps to know im not the only one feeling like that!
I guess i shouldnt complain too much - DH dosent go away and do things without me except when he goes to work - but its so easy for him - he has a life and his away time - i dont!
Maybe Lara and B are going thru another growth spurt?
Oh i meant to say B is almost crawling - she does what i call a "caterpiller" crawl - looks exactly like a caterpiller, she gets up on her knee's so well! very proud of my lil girl!
